Hyperspace Scoop

A Hyperspace Scoop is a piece of Logistics equipment that can be attached to the bow of the ship. It will collect Hyperspace Isotopes during FTL jumps, and sit idle the rest of the time. This should be connected via pipe to a tank so that the output isn't quickly blocked during jumps.

Grid size 4 x 3
Power consumption 1 MW idle
100 MW while jumping
Power category Logistics
Inputs Power
Outputs 30 Hyperspace Isotopes per second

As of Alpha 14, the scoop may be in an "Output blocked" state during a jump, despite being connected to tanks that aren't full. This appears to be reduced by having more tanks connected (tank size does not appear to matter). This causes average power usage to be less than the 100 MW max.
