    Hello again, how is everyone?

    My current suggestion is in regards to a simple economy and gameplay loop, more than anything else.

    It would be interesting if blocks could be divided in some categories, in regards for the origin block:
    So, "Recycled" if the item was taken whole from a POI,
    Player-Made... It is self-explanatory.
    And Industrial Blocks.

    The industrial items could simple be a set of itens that are only craftable from a industrial constructor.
    That constructor, however, is a block that can only EXIST inside a POI, like the Abandoned Factory. Once you try to take it, it only returns materials, like a core. And have the size of a drone bay or more, just to make using capitals and heavy fire not recommended.

    So, those blocks would either be a whole category of items that could simple have more HP and less mass, like a "Above sathium Block", or be on their own league, using (more or especialized) resources, but costing less energy, less CPU, having more efficiency, etc. Also, they could be sold for much more profit than, obviously, the other two.

    By having a POI-only constructor, we would have a very nice interest point for players in multiplayer, making a "perma-danger" zone that everyone wants, and, in addition, a use for the base itself, besides destroying it whole and taking resources lol. By adding this type of item, a really nice addition to the market, creating a form of supply & demand. And so on.

    This could even be expanded to a point where it would be interesting to do a takeover of a Zyrax Station, because they have a Furnace that yields High-Grade Alloys. What do you all think?
