1. New Profession: Miner Class

Yes, but not a burning need. I am happy with my "hybrid crafter" version I have now (architect installations coupled with merchant efficiency). Any new miner class would need to focus more on abilities like remote monitering and improved surveying. Any enhancement to production would need to be accompanied by a reduction of baseline production to keep max production the same as it is now.

2. Harvester Limitations of any kind

Yes, the current lot system should be maintained. 10 seems to be a good number. But.. one house should be "lot free"

3. Remote mointoring of structures though mails only

Email notifications of harvester shut down? Sure.

4. Droids and/or crafted terminals that can be placed in houses to mointor structures and pay maintance etc..

Dont see a need.

5.More Lots based on crafting skill

Harvester lots? No. 10 is good as a max. I would support reducing the base to 5 then making getting to 10 lots based on artisan skill in some fashion.I would also support "no lot" stores based on merchant skill, but not really the purvey of the artisan board.

Bottom line, I dont think it would be a good idea to directly increase player's potential production more then it is now. If anything, I think it should be reduced.

I also support the "harvester certification" idea both as a mechanism to provide value to crafters and as a way to moderate production from non-crafters and multi-accounters.

6. A salvage command to allow us to salvage some of our materials back from something we crafted.

No. Breaks the xp to resource consumed ratio. Would be especially insane with architects.

7. A architect crafted Forage that lets you takes metals and improve them at a cost of some kind. Require artisan crafted power mods to run. *only if there are no miners*

No. Database is bloated enough as it is without effectively doubling the potential different resources floating around (regular resource and "improved" resource of each type..). Nice idea, I just dont think its practical.

8.1 screen crafting UI with tabs

Sure. Not a big deal.

9. 1 screen structure UIwith tabs

Yes, this would be very helpful if implemented on harvesters especially.

10. Remove the shaded background from crafting so we can chat while crafting

Yes.

11. Ability to create custom schemtics though a custom crafting interface.

? Not sure I understand this.

12. More forced consumables other then droid batteries. Examples: food/drink ,power mods for houses etc..

Tentatively yes. It would depend on the item and method of consumption. Food/Drink might be a particularly good idea for domestics. Engineering.. well.. depends.

Right now I feel resource production is as high as it should go per player. Any change linking production to crafter skill (or a miner profession skill) would require base line production for non and novice artisans to be dramatically reduced to provide room for scaleing up.

Apparently I dont know what yes/no means. Sorry.
