this is kind of a template peticks, not an actual suggestion. i am sure there would be coding to prevent that from happening much like the negative of tryign to hide behind a halcyon guarding a planet. this is for PVP stuff not for planetary bombardment/defense. with the uselessness that most traps we have access to now, i am suggesting that some of these new modules dan is making available, would add particular stuff liek this to module abilities.
Bigger ships need better traps than these pissant ones we have now. the Gammacron trap bay is a good start, but that one is like a replacement to the thetacron trap that most of us have given up on activating for the sheer ridiculousness of it or it's little brother Omicron, not even being a speed bump on most attacking ships. all it's really good for is letting you know HEY! someone is shooting at you.
Module traps i think would be a better option. they'd last longer, be better defending, and cost more, with an equal drawback as to not be too Over powered, but be enough of a deterrent for a limited time to give you a moments peace if you had other things to attend to. you can have other perimeters that would be road blocks to some of these, like cant be activated if you have invaded a planet in the last 48 hrs. ect. i am not suggesting a shield to hide behind when you've done something deserving of a spanking, and i am not suggesting that any module be a way around exoticas perimeters. This is about brainstorming and pitching new ideas for Dan to consider from us all.
MAYBE even activating a self releasing (when triggered by attacking ship) a Cluster bomb effect. Like an attacking ship would activate 10-20 omicron mines or Thetacrons. Hell even call it a Mine layer module.
