Docking component/consumables transfer

[Konchog]

A docking component would be awesome. It would need to be available as a sensed object (and whether or not it is currently docked). 

For instance, It would really help for resource mining, especially if we also could manage resource/power/fuel transfer..

That way, the drone core can sit above the container, and then mining subs can go do the mining, and dock to the core, which would then drop resource into the container.

already possible

you can build your own docking port with magnets and sensors

drop a tracking part in the resource bin

 

auto resource delivery is also possible
