Or..or... we have proper multicrew and you can dock your SRV with another ship.
Anyone remember the saga of the stranded commander? Or Bomba Luigi? The attention those stories got, and the urge players had, to go out there and meet and try to help those guys, stand testament that this kind of gameplay is desired.

covered already.
Materials in asteroid belts
materials in USSes
actual probes salvaged from derelict ships in USSes
As already pointed out there's materials possibly via other routes, OR, probes to be generated via alterantive mechanics, eg: Fuel Scooping in Metallic Asteroid rings (or around Gas Giants of the right type)?

Infinite basic probes covers it as well of course.
This is the last time I'll say it. I understand what you're talking about. And yes, it still a grind. I didn't reply to that because I'm tired of repeating myself.
Don’t you have a beta to test to see for yourselves if it’s as bad as you’ve gotten yourselves worked up to believe? Or do you like green eggs and ham after all?

Pretty rare
Extra dev work

No extra dev work
Also the most popular option for 90% of the players.
Speaking for myself, I'm not moaning because it's likely to be "bad"; simply that it's inconsistent and lazy and I don't need a beta to know that.
If I had a probe for everytime you spouted this, I'd have nearly enough never to have to regenerate them again by now!

I'm not declaring infinite probes as bad. I fully understand the argument for them being implemented that way. But for me, I believe I can see more interesting gameplay outcomes if they were not.
ps: The "efficiency bonus score" grates with me though as very gamey (or lazy if you will)... And it's interesting to note that finite probes would be their own efficiency usage bonus

I say again.
If you want finite probes, then I think it is only fair to add mass to fuel scoops, AFMUs & refinery.
For the sake of consistency of course.
It's almost like it's a game...

Its the only probe fact worth knowing.
It's not our problem.. They're paid to add content to the game. When they stop doing so they can close the ED project and develop a new theme park game
I prefer simulations to games generally... But each to their own...
As I said earlier in the thread, if we hit the probe efficiency bonus we need to get audio something like this

See above for urge to test, but here’s a strange thought: What if firing a probe triggers probe synthesis, sort of how the Multicannon Autoloader special effect works? Oh.... it already does that.

If you want a simulation tailored to your requirements, make your own. You're clearly in the minority here.
oh sure that too...... but the guy was asking how non horizons would go on if probes were NOT infinite. I tried to to put any of my bias into my answer and just answer his question.
