Mining Multi Limpet Controller: Difference between revisions

The Mining Multi Limpet Controller combines the functions of the [[Collector Limpet Controller]] and [[Prospector Limpet Controller]] into a single module for the purposes of [[Miner|mining]].

 

 

The drawbacks of the Mining Multi Limpet Controller are its slightly increased cost versus the combined cost of a Collector Limpet Controller and Prospector Limpet Controller of the same class and rating, the higher mass of the 3E Mining Multi Limpet Controller versus the combined mass of the 3E Collector Limpet Controller and 3E Prospector Limpet Controller, and the module being only available in Classes 3E and 3C. The restricted rating availability of the Mining Multi Limpet Controller is particularly egregious with regards to Prospector limpets as an A-rated Prospector limpet will yield more materials from asteroids, while the requirement of a Class 3 slot prevents the Mining Multi Limpet Controller from being equipped on any ships that do not have a Class 3 or larger [[Internal Compartment#Optional Internal|optional internal compartment]]. The limpets programmed using the Mining Multi Limpet Controller also have slightly worse active ranges versus limpets programmed from dedicated Limpet Controllers of the same Class and rating.
