There are a number of modifications that can be installed in the Cargo Bay

== Cargo bay baffles ==
Price: 2,000 E$<blockquote>These spring-mounted cargo bay baffles prevent accidental loss of cargo during deceleration.</blockquote>

== Rusatom-Antonoff MPU ==
Price: 350,000 E$
Processing capacity: 20 kg/s
Power draw: 2 MW / chunk
Mineral processing efficiency: 40%
Remass processing efficiency: 40%
Mass: 1,700 kg
Manufacturer: Rusatom-Antonoff
<blockquote>The Rusatom-Antonoff Mineral Processing Unit uses reactor heat to sublimate water content out of a large cargo volume, so that mineral content can be collected and stored. Evaporated water is collected via a cryo-ring, and can be reprocessed into propellant. This MPU boasts minimal power consumption and excellent processing reach, but the heating process is inefficient, and much of the cargo and water is lost during processing.</blockquote>

==== User Manual ====
Converts ore chunks into processed ore.
Replenishes propellant.
Requires ore to be in the processing chamber.
Processes multiple ore chunks simultaneously.
Power requirements and processing speed listed per chunk.
Processed ore stored in separate containers, with capacity limited per mineral type.

== Nakamura MPU ==
Price: 500,000 E$
Processing capacity: 50 kg/s
Power draw: 25 MW / chunk
Mineral processing efficiency: 70%
Remass processing efficiency: 30%
Mass: 4,200 kg
Manufacturer: Nakamura Dynamics
<blockquote>Nakamura Dynamics' Mineral Processing Unit uses microwaves to sublimate the ice out of cargo and stores it in compact containers. Evaporated water is collected via a cryo-ring, and can be reprocessed into propellant.</blockquote>

Mineral processing efficiency: 90%
Remass processing efficiency: n/a
Mass: 2,500 kg
Manufacturer: Mitsudaya-Starbus
<blockquote>The Mitsudaya-Starbus Mineral Smelting Unit is made for efficient mineral processing, regardless of the energy cost. It uses a combination of laser-cutting and directed microwave beams to efficiently disassemble any mineral chunk. Remass recovery is not available in this unit.</blockquote>

Print power draw: 70 MW
Printing capability: drones, ammunition
Mineral processing efficiency: 50%
Remass processing efficiency: 60%
Mass: 6,000 kg
Manufacturer: Nakamura-Obonto
<blockquote>Designed for long range research vessels, the Voyager fabricator sacrifices cargo space to fit a fabricator inside the cargo bay, with a series of cryo-rings providing excellent propellant reclamation. This combined Mineral Processing / Rapid Selective Laser Sintering Unit by Nakamura Dynamics and Obonto Micro Engineering can resupply vanadium-hardened iron ammunition, or disposable nanodrones that use a platinum mirror array in an iron frame.</blockquote>

Cargo Container

2023-08-10T22:57:36Z

Wolscott: updated formatting styles to match the Autopilot page

There are several types of Cargo Container.

== THI Cargo Container ==
Price: 74,000 E$
Cargo capacity: 15,000 kg/mineral
Power usage (nominal): 20 MW
Cradle mass 500 kg
Manufacturer: Titan Heavy Industries
<blockquote>The Titan Heavy Industries Cargo Containers are fully autonomous storage pods that can relay processed minerals from a mining site. When the cradle is powered down, the pod will return to the designated station. These require on-site mineral processing units to utilize. The equipment purchase of the cargo cradle comes with a lease covering the resupply of new pods for as long as the owner holds the license.

Station control warns that retrofit with certain RCS configurations may risk overheating the Cargo Container's micro-reactor. Captains assume all such liability.</blockquote>

==== User Manual ====
Automatically stores processed ore.
You can customize ore stored on Geologist tab. Requires mineral processing unit to be used effectively.
Will unbalance the ship if only one is installed.
Can be ejected by disabling the hardpoint.
The ejected container will attempt to return to the station with its cargo automatically.
Empty cradle arm can catch drones and lifepods.

== THI Monocargo Container ==
Price 111,000 E$
Cargo capacity: 90,000 kg/mineral
Power usage (nominal): 20 MW
Cradle mass 500 kg
Manufacturer: Titan Heavy Industries
<blockquote>A single-ore variant of the standard THI Cargo Container for specialized mining runs that focus on the collection of only one mineral type. These require on-site mineral processing units to utilize. The equipment purchase of the cargo cradle comes with a lease covering the resupply of new pods for as long as the owner holds the license.

Station control warns that retrofit with certain RCS configurations may risk overheating the Cargo Container's micro-reactor. Captains assume all such liability.</blockquote>

Empty cradle arm can catch drones and lifepods.

== NT Mining Companion ==
Price: 115,000 E$
Cargo capacity: 50 m^3
Autonomy class: C2
Power usage (nominal): 10 MW
Cradle mass 500kg
Manufacturer: Nakamura-Titan
<blockquote>In the 23rd century, a joint-venture between Nakamura Dynamics and Titan Heavy Industries produced autonomous mining drones in an attempt to automate ring excavation. While initially successful, drone swarms developed personality quirks in the neural networks with diminished performance over time, with drones engaging in social behaviour rather than excavation. The autonomous mining project was ultimately canceled, but the drones were quietly refurbished and rebranded as Mining Companions, to be sold to independent miners. </blockquote>

==== User Manual ====
Deploy by powering down the arm and moving away.
Will gather ore automatically.
Gathering parameters can be adjusted on the Geologist tab.
Returns to the station when full or low on propellant.
When attached, grinders are synchronized with your ship.
Empty cradle arm can catch drones and lifepods.
