So the edencom haulers are supposed to be the kings of infrastructure management right, but the squall cannot even scoop a control tower into its vast infrastructure hold. There is only an option to scoop to cargo hold. Isnt a control tower part of space infrastructure ? Why are they left out ? ![345656743465565656.PNG](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/f/3/e/f3eedc5a7d556783f96f90b3b071b5dcde96efe7.jpeg) ---

> [@VoldeMuerte\_Riddle](#): > > Isnt a control tower part of space infrastructure ? No, they are not. POSs (Player Owned Structures) is a legacy system from the early days. Upwell Structures have replaced POSs and they now only serve a single purpose - “Death Sticks.” A cheap way to make a “safe” little pocket of space near Planet/Moon. All anchorable structures that could once be deployed inside a POS’s forcefield were removed/disabled shortly after release of Upwell Structures. POS is not among the allowable items of the Infrastructure Hold, neither should it - they only (still) exists because CCP cannot remove them from the game or it would break so much of the _Legacy Code_ (would require a complete rebuild of EVE’s source code). ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/c/a/8/ca88da4a85e086cde990342e3dc1a258257901d5.png) ---

If you get warp scrambled and shot by POS modules you will know which ones still work. And those are not the only ones. ---
