Moon mining ships would be my choice for instance, but with the moon mining structures giving large boosts to corp members. then anyone can mine a moon that they find but those controling the space it is in will gain much more benefits. this would open up ninja mining in a prospector varient (for instance) as a possibilty for smaller groups/solo players and hopefully put more pilots in space.
- Anchor drilling platform at moon.
- Set to corp use.
- Make 100 alts
- Moon mine with 100 alts.
- profit *100!
Bad idea. This will have to be limited in some way or moon goo values will be utterly destroyed. I know moon resources have abundancy. But that isn't granular at all. x1, x2, or x3? Meh. Making moon mining more like PI might work. Perhaps hisec moon mining may even become possible.
Removing POS fuel costs will make many of the crap moons and reactions suddenly viable for small-time miners. tbh, this would be a big step forward even if nothing else was changed.
tl;dr: if a Drilling Platform on a money moon can extract multiples more than the current mechanics allow, it will break the T2 economy. This must be very carefully evaluated and balanced.
Market Hubs
Personal market structures in lo/nul/w-space will be mercilessly hazed. They will be useless in hisec except for systems without stations. Even then, a simple wardec fixes that. I can only see this being successful for major powers.

Manfred Sideous wrote: Drilling Platform
Should be a thing you can put anywhere in system. It then sends out ships of different types to extract resources from things. So you can upgrade your platform for asteroids , ice , moons , gas , comets , anomalies & etc. When the NPC ships are traveling too and fro they should be vulnerable to attack. When they are extracting or moored at the drilling platform they should be immune.
This gives players lots of choices when utilizing drilling platforms. It also creates counterplay and more small gang objectives (hitting the npc ships). When the NPC ships die they are gone till the player replaces the ships. So like mining frigs etc all the way up too Hulks. NPC's shouldn't be as efficient as actual players. So if a player extracts 100 units in X time a NPC would logically extract 50-60 units in X time.
Let me see if I understand this right. You want a single platform to autonomously and automatically harvest resources from everything in the system? If so, then Hell, no! This is a terrible idea. You are essentially advocating for CCP-approved botting.

Sorry double-post. But I was running out of available characters.
I'm thinking that many single-use processes like compression or refining could be possible using a single smaller structure, while more complex things like reactions should require a larger structure. Let us anchor these things near to one another. So we can easily move the fruits of our labor around.
I am very curious to see exactly what kind of scope CCP has in mind for POS structures like mfg arrays, silos, reactors, refining arrays, and compression arrays. Are these going to be stand-alone structures, or will they be converted into services that will be fit into a new structure that may or may not replace the actual POS or station?
What about weapons? Will they be scrapped? Or converted into structure-only weapons systems? So many questions.

- What happens when I put a public market hub then people start to list their goods there, what stops me from unanchor it and steal all market goods to myself ?
- what happens to the goods if that market got destroyed? will be any automated alert e-mail sent to everyone participated in this market if the market is under attack ?
- Are these market hubs have any defense systems or capable to return fire to whoever attacking it ?
- If I set a market hub to public use does it appears to everyone in overview like planet or station with name I chose for ? does it only appear on overview to whoever authorized to use (alliance, Corp or myself) ?
- We will be able to equip market hubs with turrets and drones like the new POSes ?
- Is it possible to modify the cargo space of the market ( L size) by cargo expanders like what you introduced at the start of your presentation ?
The first two points are the critical ones.
Anything that can be unanchored is a huge risk. As such I think only personal or corp market depots should be unanchorable.
For public use structures, these really should be very difficult to steal or destroy. Otherwise they will be mercilessly hazed and abused.

They can dock in the large and XL citadels. They can only be tethered at the mediums.
In general, I think a lot of us would appreciate an update on the status of drilling platforms.

I thought that changed so that Freighters/Orca can dock in a Medium: https://m.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/3qkr10/citadel_tethering_docking_and_asset_safety_recap/
It does indeed say that. I stand corrected.
