Long Range S&R
Hello to all. Here is the story...
Yesterday, I was on the Lave system doing some work, to improve my reputation with the Alliance. After a mission, when I was going back to the station, I found a USS and decide to drop out and investigate. Well, I found some lost cargo on the radar. All looked fishy... I'm greated by three mad NPC pirates anacondas. I lose some time but, I manage to accelerate and try to escape with "flight assists off". In that chaos, my thrusters drop to 0% and stop working. I manage to keep the speed but, the ship continue to drift with 81% hull but, no flight control, no FSD. Couldn't do anything! I tryed everything but nothing... the only solution was to self destruct my beloved Python.
I end the ordeal paying the the insurance; nearly 5,000,000 CR!!!
Here is the thing...
We have the greatest and helpfull FuelRats. They've already done some fantastic work, helping stranded pilots all over the Galaxy.That is only possible, because we have now, the "fuel transferer limpet controller" module, that makes it possible, to transfer fuel to other ships.
Why not add also, an "auto field-maintainace unit limpet controller" to make it possible, to repair other ships with damaged modules. If that were already implemented, I could have asked for help and been rescue, near Lave.
Some time ago, I've already posted some ideas about search and rescue. I'm not interested in PP. Generally I'm an explorer and I participate on CG. I would really like to convert my ship for long range search & rescue and refuel / repair other players, as I go out on exploration.
We only need:
a) "Fuel transferer limpet controller" (already on the game)
b) "auto field-maintainace transfer limpet controller"
c) "I'm in deep, deep trouble; long range beacon"
d) A S&R special cammo pack for our favourite ship
Kind regards,
Xanix
