hopefully you're forced to / or can assemble a ship before you move it. It would work that much better.. haul a bunch of indies but you can still fill up their holds with cargo or their slots with modules. much more realistic ________

So if the Freighter has one item that fills up it's entire hold, that item is good as gone? _________________________________________________

Heh just imagine audit containers littering space from a destroyed freighter.

Hmm....
From the upcomming patch notes (http://myeve.eve-online.com/updates/patchnotes.asp):
"All Audit Log Secure Containers in space have been anchored. If an audit log secure container in space is not anchored, then it is publicly accessible. Audit Log Secure Containers in stations remain secure as per their configuration."

Edited by: Phades on 01/04/2005 20:34:34 My point was, the objects will still exist, because frieghters are not supposed to be able to retrieve anything to their cargo hold from space. If they can scoop said containers to their hold from space, then instead of jet can mining, you will see warehouse secure containers used as ad/hoc methods to reduce the number of trips to and from the station in mining ops. That would effectivly make the old style industrial ships completely obscelete, in addition to being a waste of data base space.

It's gonna work the same way as shuttles in indies work currently I guess... So someone try it out and see what happens?

But a shuttle can fit into a jet can. Are jet cans going to go to 100k+ - as the original concept of teh jetcan wasnt mining but to take anything the biggest cargohold could drop when destroyed. Multiple jetcans would be problematic for ships - as they can't be split up. Maybe Freighter Cans that pop like jetcans will drop - so you can only use them if to help mining if you pop a freighter in the right spot :P ---:::---

I still canŠt see why such a big EXPENSIVE, SLOW ship, could replace and make normal CHEAP, FASTER Indies Obsolete. Explain please. Are you sure thereŠs no use for old style indies? Do you really expect everybody and his mother flying these toys?

Um, yes? Most indy flying overall in game is moving stuff from place to place. Especially mins hauling, trading and POS supplying (aside from the last 1/2 mile to actually supply the POS). The Iteron V won't be truly obsolete, but you can bet you'll see the volume of indies dropping like crazy once these are available. Ppl use instas and maxed expanders in indies most of the time anyways.
Oh, I didn't mention the number one use of these ships. Massive lvl 4 hauling missions....

since you can only load up from space youll be buggered if your ship gets destroyed, basically youll need a fleet of indys to get your cargo. Consiquently i hope the freighters have nice stats, but no offensive capabilities, so they can withstand a prolongued attack. I see the main use of these beasts will be to carry low end ores i.e trit around empire, ships and other stuff. They do look cooler then BS'es tho, but personally im looking forward to when dreads are released

Apparently when an indy carrying a shuttle is blown up the shuttle is launched into space as a shuttle (which can then be boarded and flown off) so ships carried would probably work the same way ? . ----- Apologys for any rambling that may have just occurred.

Because an Interon Mk5 can hold about 26k with the most expensive expanders where a Freighter can carry 100k without a single expander. Who knows how high it will go with expanders. ---------------------------

I didnt think that unassembeled items became assembeled in space post destruction.
For some reason i also still cant shake the feeling that repackaged items should take up less space than assembled items. but meh whatever

Make it so that Freighters jettison special 999,000 m3 jetcans...
Due to the difficulty of getting that much stuff out of a can without a freighter make it so that the jetcans last until downtime.

Ships in cargo of an Indy when it gets blown up becomes assembled and left like a normal abandoned ship, doesn't go into a jet can.
