Invent that Gas!

[Friday]

Guys - gotta read what I have been suggesting.

What I am suggesting isnt 'pure' mining.

It is a 'cheat' that simulates us extracting a load of H-Fuel from the stationary gas miners scattered across our fields. The stationary miner does the actual gas extraction and blending to spit out the finished product for us.

A very small field - just enough for one or two ships - surrounding each miner.

Hopefully this will make it less work for the devs to implement, as Dusty said making a wreck-based system would require more effort.

It should also minimise the appearance of rocks in the systems.

Extracting pure H-Fuel from the miners would mean deleting our local sell points - and only being able to buy H-Fuel from a farther collection point, somewhere to give pirates a fair chance at collecting their share.


Try it! If it works, then it is something you could try for other systems with stationary models in them - giving them a 'use' beyond scenery.
