That would be such a waste of coding time for something that should have just been scannable.
If the limpet can hack nav-beacons and get me info on valuable
convoys in the system or special transports coming up
it'd be useful.
Just having a new limpet type for a single interactable POI
on a megaship is just a big waste.
Why do we need to have sepcialized limpet controllers,
if every 2 month there is a new limpet?
Frontier keeps adding mechanics and modules to the game without changing the amount of slots in our ships. I think that's a mistake. Maybe some stuff should just be added to our ships automatically, like the data link scanner for example.
PS
Or there could be just one type of limpet controller and limpet that is able to perform every action. A universal limpet. I would even fit it to my ship.
Absolutely, or they just could circumvent the problem,
having limpet controllers only adding a maximum number of parallel active limpets
and have us buy specialized limpets from the resupply store.
It is pretty unintuitive to have a specialized controller for every thing,
especially seeing it as each limpet has to be differently equipped and
have specialized firmware in.
The only thing limpet controllers do is steer the things!
