I think the General SL community thinks its time for a new ship model, people have suggested endless new suggestions for new types of ships.

Most popular are the ship probe and the Hyperjumping Fighter
But theyre many other Like the Defender suggested by myself and many other weird contraptions suggested by others :)

The Point is Professor we want a New Ship Model and we Think Its High Time for one :)

All who agree with me post your views and even your suggestions for ship models :)

I would prefer a type of ship that makes SL more of an action game, so an Automatic Defender ship would be what I say. :)

If a new model gets introduced, it should be BRAND NEW. By that, I mean as little relation to any other ship model e.g. no hyperFIGHTERS, shipPROBES...

I remember this being mentioned some other time and it died down but I think it's an absoultely :censored: awesome idea so here we go again :)

A 'Scrounger'; when a ship with res on it gets destroyed, the res is dumped in space. No normal ship can see the res, only the 'Scrounger' (it has some sort of funky rader thing). When the 'Scrounger' is next to the dropped res, it can pick it up!
Also, to help some of us clumsy...people, planets would dump res so if someone accidently oblits their HW, they can pick up the res that were on it.

Btw, 'Scrounger' is the only name I could think of and is open to suggestions. What you guys think?

OK so a specific ship to get the dropped recs, which also definately ties in with the idea of recs floating around the galaxy, which I like also :) , but a special ship to collect these recs might be too much work and may just end up being another pointless time wasting exercise to most people on SL. like training used to be :D
But really a completely new ship is a good idea. now you have to come up with a good idea for the new good ship lol :D

There are a lot less resources to be "scrounged" than you seem to think. Not many people actually use the button to drop resources in space.

That's not what I meant it for.

What I meant was, if you see a ship with loads of resources on it, instead of wasting time pirating it first and risking the owner finding out, you should be able to destroy THEN be able to pick up the resources that were on that ship.

Hell, no-one drops res voluntarily!

Oh. I see. Well, a SCAVANGER ship might be interesting if it was effectively a mobile shipyard. You could have it set so it would take a ship apart and salvage the resources it cost to build in something like 24 hours. If the owner caught you, your mobile shipyard would be easy to destroy with fighers, and you would lose a valuable ship. But, if the player was inactive, you could salvage the resources or a portion of the resources that went into making their ship.

This would also be an effective means of recycling your own ships that are worthless, which would be safe to do as long as the salvage operation was not done near a planet so you were not detected during the salvage operation.
