HELP WITH MINING - Johl45 - 12-24-2012
Guys can anyone tell me that is it still possible to mine with a miner and then drop it near station bring our transport out from same station and take all the ore we mined ??Like We used to do in 4.85.
Someone told me it is possible using some Launcher.

Yeah you can still do that

You can do it, but it's often frowned upon, so better don't do it. It's metagaming and I've heard some guys got sanctioned for it, but don't trust me. I have a bad memory.
Also, the launcher - it's actually called Freelancer Launchpad and it can be downloaded from... somewhere... I forgot where... I hope somebody else will provide the link.

It's not against the rules unless the cargo ship picking it up is hostile to the miner (IE an IMG transport picking up a cargo from a Daumann miner would be a clear violation of roleplay). However, as soon as you dump cargo into space, it becomes public property. So don't complain if another transport in range leaves with it, or someone zaps the cargo for fun. Also not against the rules.

You should get used to the fact, that no matter what is allowed and what is not, you'll (can) get screwed anyway..This can be bad because of the thing what they call "multiboxing"...
Example: http://discoverygc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=90605
Admins put the 1 minute free floating in space after F1ing script thingy in game, however if they get some nonsense screenies, which doesn't proove the fact of the multiboxing at all, you should probably run. Got the irony?
