A new deployable structure which will "attract" asteroids to it allowing belts to spawn around the deployable structure.
Deploy the asteroid attraction module. After a period of 4 hours, small amounts of asteroids will appear. Launching more modules will allow more asteroids to gather and leaving it untouched for a longer period (such as 24hrs) will yield larger asteroids (more QTY).
Destruction of the module will cause the asteroid to disperse over a period of time. Same module also for Ice generation. |

I wonder who would deploy such a structure - the miners or the people who like to kill miners? |

This would be interesting. How much ore could spawn compared to a normal asteroid belt? It would have to be either significantly lower, or the modules would have to be rather expensive.
It's an interesting idea, but I don't really see the purpose. Just go find a system that has belts already.

true that it doesn't have a purpose as yet, but for systems that are constantly depleted, it might be a possible option to spawn more belts. As for who would deploy it, i'd think miners, but that won't stop gankers from dropping it too.
It'd be useless in player owned nullsec since there are upgrades already with unlimited ores, but this is just an added feature. And if there was a version for ice, this opens up the possibly of ice, at any system, but again one module can possibly spawn a few ice rocks and having more anchored will spawn more. |

Interesting idea. But because of the power of such a structure, it could not be placed near stations, gates, planets, moons, etc. Also, it would show up on the overview making it easily warped to. |

so I can put this up in WH space - in an old site (so it's rather out of the way, and troublesome to dscan) and mine with virtually zero risk - atm, I feel mining's too risky, but this would make it too risk free, unless you gave this structure a ridiculous sig rad
For posting an idea into F&I:
come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it.....
If your idea can be abused, it WILL be. |

you can put wherever you want, but it will show up on overview so people can just warp to it.
Either that or it will show up on the probe scanner as 100% and warpable like a grav site. |
