I like space, i like rockets, and i like what COI already has for space.
But i want more
so here's a wishlist made with 0 consideration as to what's practical, enjoy!
- More
boostersrockets! could be a cosmetic swap, could be functional like the existing two rockets. Capacity, efficiency, and re-usability could be neat to upgrade/research! - Orbital mining! gives the space station more of a use then as a research platform, something for the extreme endgame when crashing a meteor into the earth just isn't practical anymore
- Orbital production! there's plenty of space out in space! why not also stick a refinery and some manufacturing up by the mining operation too?
- Rocket trading. Same as ship trading, but with rockets! maybe point to point on earth for high priority stuff, or up to other stations in orbit.
- World mines, but in space! higher investment, higher reward! moon mining or asteroid mining as some sort of alternative to scouring the asteroid belt with probes. To put space mining in parallel with earth mining systems. (excavator/probe mining and world mine/moon mine for example)
- orbital base building. I get this isn't factoreo or ksp. but what if everything in space wasn't just a GUI?
- landing pad/runway. kinda needed for most of these ideas to work tbh. if nothing else would make reusable rockets workable i suppose. or maybe the ship has to go fish boosters out of the ocean like NASA shuttle SRB's
- space elevator! more efficient then landing pads!
- Space piracy/battles? maybe build a new combat ship in space? or maybe just strap enough boosters to the existing ship to send it into orbit
I'll add more if i can think of any, i just really like space
and i also realized a lot of this could be possible as a "world map 2: space edition" :|
guess that would make it easy to implement if it came to pass?
This is all a bit silly, so don't feel a need to take any of this seriously
