Star citizen prospector7/25/2023 Unfortunately we don’t have any exact numbers to give you yet. While performing planet-side/asteroid mining, how deep can the mining laser/tractor beam cut/extract? The Prospector and Hull series ships make a very good team! The Prospector is able to keep mining and dumping cargo pods for some time before heading back to a station, allowing the Hull series to do the transporting. Yes they are, the aim is to have all containers compatible with this system. Are the containers compatible with the container docking system on the Hull series? The Prospector will come equipped with a light jump drive and light quantum drive and as it’s a small ship, it will be able to travel through small jump points too. Does the Prospector have a Quantum/Jump Drive and if so does it travel through small jump points? We can’t go into too much detail yet, only to say that containers can be dropped in space and on planets and then be picked up and stored by other ships. Can you describe container transfer during planetary and space operations? Mining equipment will only be able to be equipped on specific hardpoints, as they require other ship equipment to be present for them to operate (pipes, processing equipment and storage tanks), so they will only be on specialized ships. Can only specialized ships (Orion/Prospector) mine or can you retrofit mining equipment on to other ships? The Prospector will be much better at pinpointing specific resources and extracting just that type of mineral, targeting pockets directly rather than multiple at once. Will the prospector be better at tracking/recovering smaller amounts of valuable and rare mineral deposits, compared to the Orion operating on mass scale collection? So instead the Prospector will be using the scanners to provide general information in a local space to pinpoint nearby mineral pockets, like a larger, more advanced metal detector. As the Prospector is only manned by one miner, we wanted to put more focus on searching with the ships scanning system. The RMAP system on the Orion is manned by the scan operator, who is able to use it to provide precise information. Question & Answer Will the Prospector use the same RMAPs technology that the Orion uses? Special thanks to John Crewe, Phil Meller, Paul Jones, Luke Davis, Todd Papy, and Jonathan Jacevicius for taking the time to answer these questions for us. We are very excited to discuss this unique ship in more detail, so let’s jump right in! The Prospector and its precision mining capabilities make it an ideal candidate for covert jaunts into dangerous space for the extraction of small quantities of highly dispersed and valuable commodities. Tune back in on this Friday to see the answers to 14 more questions. Since Friday, we’ve been collecting questions from the dedicated Q&A post here and today our designers and artists working on the ship will answer 13 questions for the community. ![]() ![]() – Lonnie “Three Hand” Pardino’s Guide to Mining Alone Greetings Citizens,Īnother Concept Sale, another Question & Answer session.
