Durable Limpets

[Maymo]

Can you consider upping the durability of collector limpets FD?

Or, better yet, simply make them immune to everything but point defence. Give them I-frames or let them lightly clip through objects...

Their suicidal nature is highly annoying.
They can’t help when salvaging on planets because (regardless of gravity) they slam themselves into the surface.

It’s just a small QOL adjustment that hurts nobody, unbalances nothing and enables a new enjoyable pass time...

They are used in space not on planets if you want to pick up junk on a planet start using an SRV.

\> not just popping the hatch and grinding the bottom of your ship along the rock face

There’s absolutely no reason I can see that they can’t work on planets other than that you said so.

They can resist gravity, and mysteriously match the speed of any ship. They can perform a perfect 180 when placing items into your ship, but not on planets.

Prospectors manage to latch onto roids without dashing themselves against it, hatch breakers can take on moving targets without dying...

Using limpets (prospectors specifically) with the Corvette has become a huge pain. They almost always manage to hit the corvette if it is maneuvering at all. If the limpets were faster, or better at avoiding hitting their own ship (possible a collision immunity timer on launch) it would be great.
