I have to imagine you're also in a similar situation to refueling, in that the Pyro system is coming and there are fewer rest stops and repair stations along the way. You're going to need more options to maintain your own ship, because you're not going to have an easy stop-off point for repairs like you have in the Stanton system?

Yeah, absolutely. It's a lot more remote and barren, isn't it? And you're going to want to be able to be a bit more self-sufficient than you can be at the moment. So yeah, and I think it even ties into a few things that we want to do down the line too. We've not even mentioned where we want to take this beyond the hull stripping: eventually, when we get the physicalized ship items inside the ships too, we want this to be able to tie in with that as well. So if someone does target your power plant or whatever and take it out, and you end up just about managing to land your ship somewhere, you want to be able to repair that power plant back up rather than being completely stranded because you've got no power plant left. So that's to come later. That's probably not going to be in the initial release, but later down the line, that's certainly something we want to do too. And it does tie into that whole self-sufficiency thing.
