Player Base > Weapons platform > Mining Array

[Keith T. Maxwell]

The player base has got three kinds of arrays:

Array Type 1: Equipped with 2 cruiser pulse, 2 cruiser Cerberus, and 6 battleship basic turret 2
Array Type 2: Equipped with 4 battleship pulse and 2 battleship Cerberus
Array Type 3: Equipped with 2 battleship razor, 6 battleship solaris and 2 gatling solaris

I have an idea for a 4th array type, a Mining Array.
The Mining Array would have Transport/Fighter mining arrays.

It will mine the asteroid flying in space (if the base and the array are in a asteroid field).

Now there are 5 defense modes:

Defense Mode 1 - Logic: Blacklist > Whitelist > IFF Standing
Docking Rights: Whitelisted ships only.

Defense Mode 2 - Logic: Blacklist > Whitelist > IFF Standing
Docking Rights: Anyone with good standing.

Defense Mode 3 - Logic: Blacklist > Whitelist > Hostile
Docking Rights: Whitelisted ships only.

Defense Mode 4 - Logic: Blacklist > Whitelist > Neutral
Docking Rights: Anyone with good standing.

Defense Mode 5 - Logic: Blacklist > Whitelist > Neutral
Docking Rights: Whitelisted ships only.

There could be one more mode, a mode for the Mining Arrays.


A new base has got a cargo of 30,000, so there must be a command so that the array mine only 10,000 for example.
This command can look like that:

Code:

/miningarray <mineable commodity> <count of mineable commodity>

If you write

Code:

/miningarray helium 10000

the array will mine only 10,000 helium.

The base will collect the mineable commodities automatically.
