Thargoid-tech-based limpet controller

[ZakNaZul]

We have few tharg-tech based modules, like enzyme launchers for example. If there is a chance that FD would add more modules of that kind - iam would like to see some fancy limpet controllers.
Here how i see it:
Thargoid interceptors (all of them from medusa to hydra) known for a launch tons of little drones. Imagine limpet controllers based on that sort of a technology!
Module that can reproduce ammo - no need to carry limpets with u!
Collector limpet version capable to launch 8 drones at onece - couse thargs love number 8 lol
Maybe somehow that would be universal limpet controller that was suggested over 9000 times?

Happy miners, happy combat ships who want collect mats aftermath.

Require tissue samples from every type of interceptors trollface
To be sure that everyone gonna be envolved to Xeno-content.


P.S. gonna wait for party-poopers who would say that this would be too easy and IMMMMERSION breaking lol, idc anyways, just leave it here)

As a heavy limpet user, I'd love this.

Most of my ships have collection limpet controllers, for scooping up all the goodies. But I need a large cargo bay for limpets too. Even though I'll only be carrying limpets in it. Or I can fit a smaller cargo bay, and waste materials on synthesizing more limpets.

I'd love something that doesn't require a cargo rack to be fitted.

Well been both Pre 3.3 and now core Miner. All I use is 2 Collectors and Prospectors. You don't need the 8 to 12 Collectors at a time. I also make around 370,000,000 credits every few hours.

Whenever someone starts a sentence with "I don't mean to be......." whatever follows is actually exactly what they mean to be.

You will find that Lestat started this thread about mining Void Opals so I suggest he knows what he is talking about;

An Elite Trader way too fast?

Started from a new game. Minor combat until I had a barebone Cobra MKIII and some extra credits. Went to Kolage and started mining Void Opal. First I started on a not so Max out Cobra MKIII So the first run was around 2 million and made Dealer. The second Mining trip I made over 51 Million...

You must still be mining the old way with 12 Limpet controllers? Going to one asteroid to the next using prospector. That work great in Pre 3.3 Update. But I don't even hold Mining lasers. All I run right now is Python with 2 seismic chargers and one abrasive blaster. 2 Collectors and 2 prospectors and I have 224 or 225 cargo hold full of Limpets. When you destroy an asteroid. The loose rocks stay in groups of 3 to 8 mineral. There 4 to 8 group rocks. So having 12 controllers is useless. Most will blow up because it has to go around the destroyed asteroids different.

I agree with others that profit and - due to asteroid-cracking gameplay - FUN oriented mining needs few collectors.

That said, a universal controller would be nice.

Well, I know I have 2 Elite Traders accounts. When my Main account gets back I will work on that one.
