Hello all. Hope everyone had a good Christmas and ready for New Years PAR-TAY!!
Anyway, here's an idea. How bout an escape pod just for the resource only, not the modules stored in cargo bay though, every space station and mining modules will be equiped with this as standard equipment? When the station or mining modules is under attack and when the percentage or whatever gets to certain numbers, it'll lauch the pod, but not before that number. In doing so, the resource is jettisoned to try to save the resource, BUT, it can be attacked as well with say, 5-20% chance of escaping, but if unsuccessful, well, you get the idea, they got the loot. It will either send it to Earth orbit or to the safe spot in the same galaxy the station's in (aka, you have no say in that, in combat, it's a rapid decision and may not be the best) and only your ship, aka, the owner can retrieve it, and will be notified in report section, and can be plotted either in the navigation or nav computer to pick it up by going there, but you will need to go to the cargo tab to order a retrieval of the pod, that way you'll see if you have enough space to carry it in. Just a thought in a nice feature.
