I was bored...had an idea...decided to write it down.
Get rid of local chat and replace it with an active scanner.
Something like this:
Alternate link: here
So this scanner is always on and everything within a short range, let's say 5au, is always visible. It can see up to 15au in front of the ship but at a decreased angle, so the thing is adjustable like the scanner we have now. Color coding depending on standings. Mouse-over tells you the shiptype.
You could then have mods and ship types that affect the range and speed of the scanner.
I figure something like this would make the game a lot more exciting.

Miners should never be able to protect themselves from cloakers.
That said, miners should never be able to protect themselves, period.
That's what combat escorts are for.

Because mining is that profitable?

So somebody has to sit afk next to somebody else, doing absolutely nothing and not having any sort of idea if there was going to be action in the next two minutes or in the next 3 days, just because someone wants to be mining in 0.0? That sounds like quite a terrible idea! maybe you should rethink it :D |

Make cloakers show up as something on the scanner, unknown signature or something like that. That way you still know if someone else is in system.

How does any mining get done in wormhole space? ~ Santiago Fahahrri Galactic Geographic |
