Hi Frontier,
No this isn't an angry thread. Just a suggestion.
Will you be adding multicrew functionality to Exploration and Mining? As you well know, currently, Multicrew is strictly combat only, which is not the primary focus for many of us. And I figured here is an opportunity to both fix multicrew AND add additional activities to Exploration and Mining. Here are some easy ideas:
- Allow multicrew players to use the system scanner thingie who's name I forget. Allow multicrew players the ability to launch probes on a planet. You may already have this implemented on the new update. Not sure.
- For mining, create ship launched *mining* craft. As in small craft equipped with a variety mining weapons. Given the need now for large ships with many hardpoints for mining, many of which are sluggish and awkward, an SLF bay with mining craft would be absolutely fantastic.
- Allow multicrew players to use mining scanners and launch prospector limpets in any direction instead of just straight forward.
And of course, offer credit rewards to players assisting.
Just stuff I'm thinking of off the top of my head. I'm sure others could come up with more or better. As can you. Thanks!
