Ok, we all know how dependent this game is on grinding for cry to purchase ships and bps. And SplitScreen have tried several attempts to make it easier for us (by offering cry with gold purchases etc)

But what i sugest is a completely different proposal. AFK Mode Vouchers.

There are 2 options, You can either pay by system.
User buys AFK Voucher form the Item shop with gold. 5k Voucher for Vega, 7.5k Voucher for antares etc (going up 2.5k per system) Each voucher will be worth 1 hour (+1 minuets for each level).
So for a level 85 to use afk in sirius would cost 20k, and you would get about 2 hours 30 mins of afk time.

The time is dependant on level and cost of gold depends on system.

Or Pay by hour
You can pay 10k gold per hour regardless of system.

(Only one will be taken forward) - The system will basicly kill all mantis that are around you till you either die, run out of afk time, or energy.

I estimate each hour you will get ABOUT 25k without boosters (Could be more/less). there are variables, ie people stealing cry, other manits getting in the way you ship will pick up bps so if you have a BP booster on it will delay how much it can get because it wastes time picking up the bps,

Now for this to work your client/browser would have to be open - Hense it called AFK mode, not Offline mode. During the AFK mode you can select/highlight particular weapons for your ship to use, ie for any ship, repair, blaster and collector are essential no matter what you are killing so these would be selected. The reason for this selection if for users that dont have membership; they can select the minimalistic choice to benefit form the AFK mode, as it will NOT collect Energy For you. You take your ship to the area, buy/activate the AFK Mode voucher, and you ship will begin to kill all mantis/collect everything it sees using the weapons/buffs you have selected. This will work best with Membership as you can use all the items etc, but can work well with out. You ship

Upon death the you will lose the rest of an hour. If its 59:59 then you are just unlucky. If its 1:01 then i would say you are dead lucky :p
If you run out of energy, you ship will stay still where it is and wait for you to take over collect energy. AFK mode will be paused/stoped, if you leave PC too long and you die while it is paused you will not lose an hour.

Each second thats spent in AFK Mode will count off the clock. You can leave it ticking away when you go for lunch or a power nap and come back and resume where it left off. When you enter AFK Mode you cant do anything, if you click on the screen after it has been enabled it will exit.

Can not be used while Pirate Mode is enabled, Can not be used while a mission is active.

Please feel free to adapt/input/contribuite/ask question - as we all need to unite and get some solution to grinding.

For me this sounds like an auto bot and nothing else, and there is nothing I hate worse than bots in a game.

You realize there are missions where you have to go to Kill a specific mantis on a marked area, kills outside area doesn't count, or to get BP's and this will not work cause then those who are doing missions might have their area invaded by a higher system ship who will auto kill and loot everything, and surely if there would be such, everyone will be everywhere in Sirius ships and highest tech giving no chance even to new players who arrive to a system/planet, to get their top tech.

This idea will not work at all in PG.
We have been fighting cheating and any program what could exploit, and take advantage abusing the game, and for sure an idea like this will not work in PG.

When you make a suggestion like this, think first how this game works, and what such idea would do in the whole game to all players, in all functions.

the AFK mode, or rather called Auto Bot by Adrana is used by many quit a lot of fantasy games, this feels to advanced for sci-fi, cus there is nothing called auto pilot in sci-fi, we have't developed it yet in our ships to destroy stuff while we take a bath xD...

I like the idea, I could even pay for that, some times i got homework, i eat, and shower...

I'd rather call this Auto Pilot mode. I don't really care for if some higher system ship pilot came to the spot killing mobs, I'd be happy, take the loot, lol, steal all the cry, and bps, which is opposite of what Adrana thinks ^^.

If I'd ever came to game I'd like it like this
1 hour, 7500 gold

Destroys and collects the loot.

I see this is a nice way to give the devs some cash, if u ask me ^^, and I'd use this to steal from others while they'd be afk :p.

But seeing as this AFK mode might be, it'd be stupid and waste of gold, since I am sure i'd kill 1 at the time, fly to 1 place, then select next... It'd be impossible almost for it to kill sirius mantis in sirius ship xD(MU or better)
