Should the naming survive being traded? Should there be guarantees that it is authentic?

There is no real problem with mechanics. Either a player is better off mining titan on their own or its more efficient to buy it from the market. Better mission payout means that buying from market is more often the case. If its it time efficient to mission and buy ores with the rewards those that insist on mining their own titan are just fools. If all miners quit mining to mission grind and buy ores then the efficiency of raw resources by buying would lower.

The market is moving more into actual trade being made and you are complaining about that?

If you value U compacteness in your raw resources do rare materials.

I would wonder if there was an option to lossfully turn standard ore into rare variants how many would use it?

So PvE hauling is okay to be hard but PvP hauling isn't supposed be to be hard? I am detecting slight inconsistencies.

I am in a situation that I have the game open on the other screen and check up on it every 5 or 10 minutes. However this results in some bots just simply being lost. While I can live with the mechanics as they are I know a lot more people are way more afraid of death.

Its also that the red packs are quite dense. This results in them not taking that much space so it become more hit and miss whether you ran into them or not. And if you do run into them its not like only 1 locks you but several at once. And usually one of them has a demob. I could imagine that having your bot wear down by losing only a fraction of health on each "collision" could be more desirable.

Also there is a big attention assymmetry when it comes to haulers vs gankers. A ganker needs to pay attention only one gank trip. A hauler typically makes only a fraction of the value of their cargo and spends a lot more on the road than any bandits. If you have a loss rate of 1 bot per 10 trips and you make only a tenth of your cargo value each trip (10% profit rate is quite optimistic) you only break even.

It is also pretty stupid looking when the dreadded posibility of a hauler and a bandit meeting in the field results in the bandit shooting the hauler to death without the hauler reacting or noticing. Given that it's a pretty rare occasion having it be more dramatic could easily be more fun.

Well atleast I can take solace that if things say this way and reds come to alpha the same issue will present regarding alpha2s making transporting actually cost a damn thing.

Injectors take a ton of U. Plasma takes next to nothing. The equation seems mathematically challenging. Try to have a scarab full of injectors vs a sequer full of plasma, with nic per energy that someone migth agree to. Sounds like too much of a stretch.

And anyways Earth needs that energy. The whole point of the enterprice is to get that Nian blood to feed the machine back home.

I have loved how gamma terminals don't have any natural supply. What I would like is some sort of conveyor or item teleport system. But that is basically what you are asking. I would expect heavy energy upkeep.

There are more edge cases in regards to dying. After death for a short while you dont' have a robot. While it could be overcome there is no canonical way to extend this to "field terminal" style terminals.

I do have the case that in some computers the game runs if I don't go out to the field. Arguably it would be smoother to multitaks other task in your computer if you are for example just monitoring the market if you don't have to keep the 3D environment loaded. I do kinda like idea of being docked althought the "virtual reality" aspect could be explored further.

Also this would kill the spin counter .

Could we have like "teleport destination" beacons"? It could have a larger spool up time but once spooled it would be a valid destination for other teleport beacon departures.

Aslo could make sense as a gamma structure that would make more sensible beach heads.
