Bug: Some of the mining fields on omega 7 do not drop ore.
Also, I've been trying mining as an alternative to trading.
It's just not worthy. The debris droops too little ore.
Even with copper, which drops like 15 per debris, its too slow to mine enough to justify doing it.
To be worthy, mining should drop a lot of ore (same amount of debris than the fields of O-7, but instead of 15 per chunk, 60+), and of the good ore (diamonds, gold, cobalt, artifacts, etc). So that the time of a mine run is close to that of doing a trade run with the same cargo. If not, mining will continue to be an useless feature of FL, as it has always been.
