Not to be the one to detract from the worship of what is actually a very good idea, my question to the thread would be: If CCP did adopt this idea, how would they deploy it in such a way that the hundreds of pre-existing starbases out there in hundreds of different configurations with active and offline modules are ported over so that there is no economic or material loss?
I realise that this would raise even more questions about sovereignty and how CCP would maintain the current sov levels (and not see all of 0.0 do a Delve) as well as intergrate the sovereignty dependant modules (Jump Bridges, Cynosural Field Jammers etc etc) - would they feature as a bolt on to the starbases, or would they become a seperate facility that can be attacked and disabled? That is of course if the sov mechanic stays with starbases in its current itteration, or is somehow changed, as this thread deals with the starbase issue, and not so much the sovereignty mechanic.
But yeah, a modular starbase I like. Especially any speculation of a clone vat, if only for . :P

The idea is similar to building stations in the X series of computer games, and any step towards similar station building to what is in X is a good thing.
POS's arent starbases, they are a thin stick-like structure that has modules flying around it all over the place.
This is a brilliant idea that needs serious looking into

I want some kind T3 Towers!!!
With modular Shield, Fuel Hangars, CPU and PG sections, plus the OPs suggestion.
That could fix the "replace a small with a big towe" in HighSec problem.
Also it shouldnt be that big trouble with Sov in 0.0 cuz CCP would just replace the Tower itself and it wouldnt be like unanchor and reanchor a POS.

This has been addressed by myself and a few others, simply leave the old ones there, and stop seeding them, seed only the new ones.

What bolt said - basically just change all the moduals and towers but don't move them (or if you have to, just do one of those scripts that puts the stuff together in any random order)
Either way it is fairly simple but they say its hard so they don't have to do it.

Where has the dead horse gone, I couldn't find it on any page. I had to go to a bookmark to find it. Someone wants to silence the dead horse but it must not be so for the dead horse must live on.

While I dont mean to detrack from the rather good CG talents of those earlier in the thread, I have come up with another idea. Similar in concept to those earlier in the thread, what I'm calling for is a mere option to reduce the number of modules that need to be deployed with a POS.
The first of these new modules would be a Station Core. This would anchor directly to the control tower, or atleast look like it. This rather large disc shaped module would form the central building block of the new station types.
http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationCore.gif
The Core module would come pre-built with Corp hanger space large enough for an average Industrial to dock. Once the Core is deployed the station manager can simply dock and add some of the smaller station modules currently available. The Core would be restricted in the types of modules it can equip, mainly being used for additional hanger space.
Once a Core Module is set up propery larger Hemisphere Blocks can be added. The current plan is to be able to anchor both a North and South hemisphere. These would have options to equip a full range of the current modules. The equipped modules can not be seperately targeted but perhaps they could appear to be equipped to the Outer hull? Similar to Turret modules on ships.
http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationHemispheres.gif
The last of these ideas are the proposed Capital Ship Docking Ring. The discussion of which seemed to make some good progress.
http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationDockingRing.gif
With this station type there would no longer be a POS bubble shield, just those the station has. Weapons and support arrays could still be anchored in space around the station as before.

This thread is still around?
I'm not very active on these forums, but it has been about 2 years since I saw this thread last and it was much much shorter then.

T3 ships are basicly moving versions of this. how is it to dificult to make a static lego starbase, but mobile lego ships are no problem? I'm not trying to be a smart*** and I support CCPs efforts this really is a great game. I would just like to understand this.

Well it's pretty clear a LOT of players want the POS to get a whole host of updates.
Much support from me tbh

Having separate modules for a POS kinda ties in to the Strategic Cruiser plan, doesn't it?

Having it on page 5 is not good.
I suppose till devs get embarrassed and say something this year, I will be bringing it up.
Hey devs, come out here, tell us what is up with our "funky POS idea" and why is it being unilaterally supported for almost 3 years, while studiously ignored by the developer team.
Shame on you.

Awesome idea.. this is what I always thought POSes were, until I finally got into 0.0 and was immediately disappointed by the disjointed random structures they actually were. I felt so cheated.

Sad to see that these ideas are around for almost 3 years now and CCP still cares sh*t about it.
A pity, but hardly surprising.
