I'd really like to see "garbage collector" drones at *all* the stations--drones that will run around a base and clear mines, or ram into avalons that fly too close to the station airspace.

Even better would be to allow users to put drones in their cargo hold, jettison them, and let them unfold into a few small/dumb/missle chasing escort ships.

I like this idea,

but this should only be usable by the bigger ships, maybe frigates ??

Maybe I'm dreaming again, but I believe that (once they are improved) the station defense bots will target mines.

Yeah, but I was commenting on the second part :D

cheers

Along the same lines, bots should pick up cargo and carry it. Sector 4 can get REALLY messy sometimes.
