Mining idea - mining mine

[Lance_Uppercut]

It's not possible at the moment.

If we changed to NPC mining, i.e. NPCs with rock models then it could be done. This has some downsides, like asteroids docking with tradelanes and such.

Hahaha. Maybe for April 1st...

The other down side (possibly an upside), full server = no NPCs = no mining.

Why not a object? Like the Satellies That are destroyable But then again. No respawn. Or there can be a diff model of rocks that are big ( Like mining gold ore to shoot lil rocks that spawn all teh time) Insted of small ?

I think Tenacity had designed a ship that looked like a rock, we all laughed but now we know he's a genius. And now we have nothing.

Hello,

problem with minable rocks is that they are more of particle effect on camera rather then game object.

On other hand with explosions dont affecting them, perhaps instead of explosion make frag bomb a projectile that would travel let say 200 meters in direction you aimed and then exploded into a lot of small bolts similar to mining turet ones, which would travel in every direction?

As for NPC asteroids is that feature that despawns most NPC with 150+ players set by admins to keep server cool or its flserver hardcoded condition?

i think this would cause severe lags. imagine the amount of shots that would be fired if they would have to cover a sphere 200m in diameter

Hello,

may i ask how are NPC numbers controlled on Disco? I mean does this decline of NPC is caused by flserver itself or if you set up some limit in server addon?

I've always been in favour of having a race of sentient asteroids...

Why not make all rocks mineable? In Flak, every rock is a moving one, we can take it a step further: moving and destructible.
