IWhile the isk idea is nice, i think ultimately the play we could get from making clones a second front in battles would prove to be far more interesting in the long run. Plus from just a logistics standpoint, I don't think mercs would have a need to recycle biomass mid battle for isk when they could just do it afterwards.

I really like the idea of mid-battle clone harvesting, being able to effect clone reserves using this. Have you considered just focusing on that aspect (ignoring the isk for now). I think the additional dynamic of clone warfare sounds very appealing. They could decrease clone count in battles to account for biomass being recycled, and now we have a very interesting two aspect war, focusing on both control points and clones.

Normally biomass will be transported to the MCC, however when a vehicle or foot solider is in range with the correct transport module the Harvester's protocols change and divert incoming biomass to that player.
The harvester does not hold reverse biomass, so a player must wait near the harvester while soldiers are dying within its range.

This also benefits teams that become redlined, and actually encourages teams to lure opposing sides out of the redline into range of the harvester so they can continue to earn bonus money or resupply troop reserves.

The additional 10 clone carrying capacity could be a skill tree investment benefit. You receive +2 clones to overall capacity per level. I would bundle this in with the current mobile CRU operation.

Well ****, I read the title and thought I was going to read about an idea for a match played inside a Dyson Sphere, as in a sphere encompassing a sun. This is a well thought out idea, +1 for that...but **** you for getting my hopes up...

Neat idea but seems like an extreme amount of coding
Shouldn't be a priority till atleast all weapons are implemented

Certainly, the weight of additional biomass should slow a player down. I don't think it should slow vehicles down. With vehicles I am thinking that certain classes of vehicles have a certain number of attachment slots to which the containers are affixed to while in transport. Logistics based vehicles would obviously have more open slots.

Containers would be exposed for the most part and have decent level of hit points before being destroyed. With what I talked about with MySpaceTom, destroyed canisters would damage a vehicle over a period of time with corrosive based attributes. That means the more biomass that container the longer contents would leak out and corrode the vehicle's integrity. This could be a 1 to 1 sec relationship, meaning a full 12 clone can would provide a 12 second area burn.

The amount of damage the corrosive burn does is up from discussion.

I couldn't understand the OP very well, but I got the gist of it. When the person goes up and hack the thing, and starts the suicide process, what is the clones killed in the "harvest" were transferred to the friendly team?

Example: TeammateLover123 hacks the thingy. 6 people die. And now 6 clones are added to the friendly team. It would prolong battles, and if you're able to get in behind a team and activate one, it would be a game-changer in gamemodes like Ambush, and even Skirmish, it'd be quick to clear an objective.

Also, maybe afterwards, there'd be a "Radiation Period", where enemies that enter the area start losing a set amount of HP per second, and the HP/s decreases per second?

Hey, how does a suicide hacks and their potential greifing play into a player team kill counter? That might end particularly badly in the new factional warfare if you kill a bunch of friendlies in the initial blast wave while trying to capture that harvester.
