Maybe. I've been debating creating specialized ships with bonuses such as
this. I'll throw it in the idea pile for later consideration.

So, you're looking for a way to wander the countryside looking for things to
mine, without even spending EPs to do it? :).

I guess the tradeoff, though, is that a ship moves very slowly (at best, you'd
get 1 room per 3 seconds, I think it was).

There's always the outerworld clair staff + speed setting. You can set your
ship to be slow over land and cruise over the land using the clair staff to
look for deposits...
