We need a Magnet....

[MisusedPower]

So Im not sure if anyone else is annoied by the massive scatter of resources when scavenging or after blowing up a enemy ship but heres a thought.... MAGNETS!! Why isnt there a block that makes a magnetic field to suck in these beside the basic field... I was thinking if there was one buildable but drains power very badly but has a field distance of 10km it would allow scavengers to continue instead of have to fly after every tiny scrap..

EDIT: Ok since there technicly is one now.. how about a module that highlights "junk" aka debris sector wide... Im tired of trying to find the damn things!

I just found one of these: RCN-00 Tractor Beam Upgrade Mk III, Uncommon, Loot Collection Range +.2 km, Energy Consumption +.36 GW, "Gotta Catch Em All!" Well yep it appears they already added it! Noice.

just got one they really need to change the icon that damn thing blends into the other ones.. mabye some scrap icon instead... or mabye a new icon.. reuseing icons is a lil lazy...

Haha yes that was my problem initially, I just thought it was another trading module. Had one for days before I actually figured out it was something different.

As a hardcore salvager, it really does help out a TON in gathering drops that would otherwise have been missed (at least money and ores that would eventually disappear, the upgrades and turrets don't despawn now). Oh, and they appear to stack! I have a legendary and an epic currently slotted on my primary ship.

I still like the original idea of adding a magnet, only for scrap metal, though. Have it draw small wreckage chunks together into an area that you can quickly zap through with salvage beams.
