Highest Scrap sellpoints should probably be in Inverness and Koeln. Puerto Rico and maybe a few others should be "middle road" sell points.
No
Yes.

Sounds good. Likey.
Don't know if it will help resolve the activity issue though.
More loot to be looted though.

No it's not. Scrap mining is now hideously imbalanced, an unintended side-effect of this change. It will be rectified as soon as possible.
RE: Admin Notice: Field Depletion Disabled - .Gypsy. - 02-06-2014
Im sure it will
RE: Admin Notice: Field Depletion Disabled - Highland Laddie - 02-06-2014
Not Junker hate at all. Exactly as Echo stated, Junkers weren't just meant to have easy money handed to them more than any other mining faction. It's an imbalance.
RE: Admin Notice: Field Depletion Disabled - Kazinsal - 02-06-2014
Just for reference, today a couple of us mined about half a billion credits' worth of scrap in two hours.
We have rectified this.
RE: Admin Notice: Field Depletion Disabled - Govedo13 - 02-06-2014
This is good step in two step process. However this one was the second step, the first one should be to reduce the numbers of mining fields to the classical 5 locations, because without limiting the huge number of mining fields in the server would actually decrease activity instead of increasing it.
Why?
Simple logic- the metagaming miner would just look at the systems list and would mine in empty systems only. This wont lead to more piracy activity but would lead for less mining since the money making process it would be faster and unchallenged.
If the scrap is OP just roll back the server with one week or so, balance the mining mod from scratch by bringing back the 4.85 version of it- 4 hospots and thats it all folks, just add 1 more Sigma spot for it and you are golden.
Please don't flood with credits the already flooded server- it is really bad for the activity.
RE: Admin Notice: Field Depletion Disabled - Kazinsal - 02-06-2014
No point in rolling the server back. The scrap fields were broken for roughly 18 hours. By my estimates only 3 billion credits were injected into the economy as a result.
