Mining not working? - vredesbyrd - 04-12-2016
Greetings, fellow pilots.
I have a query, well, sort of...
I have a Hagemon Asteroid Mining Vessel, a Daumann DHC ID and Heavy Mining Arrays (4 of them).
I travel to proper places with mineable fields and shoot those damn rocks for hours, yet never seem to get any ores.
How? Did I mess up with something?
Any answers would be overwhelmingly appreciated...
Thank you, and good tailwinds...

Could you give us some examples of the fields that you've been trying to mine (such as the location/name of them)? That could help us narrow the issue down, as I don't see anything immediately off about the character setup you described.

I assume you are mining in Omega 11, Diamonds?
Then you likely are not in an active field.
There are several mining areas on the map (click the "hammer" for your mining map), but only 1 of them is active. You'll have to find out yourself which one, as I do not mine in O11 myself.
Also make sure that you have DHC ID, DHC IFF. Then normally you should get all bonuses you need.

I'll try switching between the zones. By the way, how do I get an IFF?
RE: Mining not working? - NoMe - 04-12-2016
arm your ship, and make some missions or bribe rh police and army if you can! the iff is the little light who flash on your ship. ask the military, they have some big ship to help you!

So basically, I just need top rep with DHC? And where do I buy that light?

Ah! The solo mining ID worked. Thank you, good folk.
