(Cross-posted from reddit) So, there are these purple and blue things you can stick into your thrusters, you might've heard of them before; they're called the electricity and propellant converters. According to their in-game description, they "can be attached to the combustion chamber of a...

I made a similar suggestion in another post of mine where I instead proposed allowing transponders to essentially work as black boxes, storing metrics such as distance traveled. There would then be special vendors that just buy looted transponders and pay out scaling with the transponder's...

The use cases for the tractor beam and the device I've proposed are very different, though. From what I've seen, the tractor beam is meant more for grabbing asteroids and pulling them closer to either cargo lock or use a mining laser on them. The magnetic field device would be able to both repel...

(Cross-posted from reddit) The material point scanner is... ok, I guess? It has a pretty piss-poor range and I've honestly just found it easier to just fly close enough to use my u-tool or visually identify them instead of bothering with an entire scanner setup. Therefore, here's my idea for...

(Cross-posted from reddit) Here's an idea for a very simple yet powerful device: The Magnetic Field Device. Basically, the Magnetic Field Device is the ore collector's bigger and more powerful brother. It would have the ability to attract or repel asteroids en masse within its range, and the...

(Cross-posted from reddit) So, it's no small secret that people are a bit disgruntled atm. And honestly, while it is a bit annoying to see the same argument being made everywhere en masse, it's understandable where they're coming from. PvP in its current state is hard to find, isn't profitable...

The problem with that is now the server has to keep track and store information about items that might never be found by anyone else because of how stupidly vast space is. I'm pretty sure that broken asteroids already despawn after you leave the area, otherwise the safe zone would be a massive...

I'm interested in why you think no one would be interested in trading gameplay. You seem so sure that absolutely no one would want to engage in mercantile gameplay, and I'm not really sure why, considering I'm one of them, and most certainly not the last. If this game wasn't meant to have trade...

I should probably mention that my point about the ore collector was more about people suggesting that the ore collector just straight-up not attract whatever materials have been specified in a device field or some such, which wouldn't make much sense since the ore collector seems to operate on...

I do admit that at large stations, having individual player stores might be a drag without some sort of instancing shenanigans, maybe even with a PSO2-like search system for finding stores with the relevant items. I also admit that even with that solution it might even end up not too dissimilar...

I've made this point in a separate post, but goddamnit I am going to keep preaching the good word. Item incinerators > collector filters/ore ejectors/mass delete option. Having a dedicated incinerator device would not only be more immersive and make more sense in-universe than any of the...

(Cross-posted from reddit) I see a lot of people posting suggestions for ways to dispose of unwanted ores, but they primarily fall into a couple categories: Add a filter to the ore collector to just ignore those ores when collecting. Add a mass deletion option to the inventory. Add an ejection...

(Cross-posted from reddit) tl;dr: Replace the current origin-centralized and omnipresent auction house with physical player-owned storefronts to allow for more variety in the economy and more gameplay opportunities. The Problems: Currently, there are pretty much only two ways to exchange your...
