Mineral Compression

Item volumes are not all created equal in Eve In real life you would expect if you build an item with 10 bricks 1" x 1" x 1" you would come up with something 2" x 5" x 1' or some thing similar In Eve you can get something 100" x 100" x 1 or something .5"x .5" x 1"

This has lead to an interesting idea in the relocation of minerals

Logistics is key in 0.0 without a strong logistics backbone your pilots will be without ships, and without ships your not going to be in 0.0 long.

The basic idea behind mineral compression is you have 1,000,000,m³ of minerals . moving them to 0.0 would be very dangerous and require multiple trips.

What if you can build certain items that requre considerably less space than their unfinished build materials, transport them to 0.0 and then refine them to get back your minerals?

These are just a few of the items that are useful for mineral compression (CCP has nerfed mineral compression several times but it will continue until they introduce a acceptable logistical alternitave.

Passive targeters - 5:1 compression on tritanium making them great for bringing trit in/out of low or null sec. With freighter 4 you can fit about 450m units of tritanium in a freighter. small armor repairers tractor beams Heavy shield maintance bots ( fit in carrier's huge drone bay and still leave room in hangar \ hold) ammo (especially capital torps)( can be placed inside industrial ships, and then transported in carriers ship maintance bay. Capital modules

Purgatory Torpedo I - On reprocessing, these provide 57.3% trit, 42.2% pye and 0.5% high ends at a 20.8:1 compression ratio
