Comets in Discovery

[Vulkhard Muller]

I remember back when I played Nightstalker's Universe Mod, "Asteroids" as they were called were just random but very rare npcs that would fly across your screen at a fast rate, almost at a cruise like speed. Could be the model was also just given a very high impulse speed. Anyways destroying them resulted in literally cookies being dropped but I can see them being filled with a commodity or ore if added in this way. For example.

Comets: Drop Oxygen, Water, or some type of gas depending on the region they're found.
Asteroids: Any Ore depending on region it's found in. (Omega 11 asteroid drops uncut diamonds.)

There is a precedent for this the dark matter storm in Alberta has fairly large moving rocks that when shot have very large and violent explosions. Id assume simply coding them to drop a certain ore and just changing their models could allow this to happen, but, this is a Dev subject.
