Yess... maybe something like:
"your mass drivers collect space debris each year 10kT of mineral per warp of the mass driver" Shocked Very Happy

I like this idea! But why not go further!? Grin Why stop just at collecting that inferior space debris? A PPs massdriver can suck up those shiny minerals from all planets which have a massdriver in orbit and that are in range of the massdrivers of the PP! Twisted Evil Laughing Range being the flinging range, 15*15=225ly for instance.

So what do you do? Build an massdriver to protect yourself from packet attacks? Or *not* build a massdriver to hold on to your precious minerals? Twisted Evil Shocked

Did you pay your mineral taxes today? Razz

The mineral transfer could be a % of surface minerals, or 10kT of each mineral, or maybe connected to the mining rate (of the owner of the planet, or using the minesettings of the PP should he live on that planet) or depeding mineral concentration, ...

Also a neat feature would be that the PP can see what the other races has on the surface, and maybe like a robberbaron just steal all minerals?? Laughing

Now that would make PP an intersting PRT! Nod
