nu-mining is the most engaging and fun way to mine stuff that's ever been conceived in this game and it actually finds use for a hegemon

please speak for yourself. mindlessly spamming a mining array at flying small rocks (or a big stationary one) is the most mind-numbing experience one could ask for in this game. even worse than powertrading.

on topic of the OP: mixing mining fields is a terrible game design choice. as some have pointed it out, a mix of old mining and nu-mining could work, but if we have two fields of old mining overlapping each other - it's only going to make an already tedious process a lot more so.
