Quote:Have you ever tried jettisoning cargo in the mine fields of Dublin? Most of the time it's immediately destroyed by the mines. And in the time it takes to jettison the cargo from a Basalt you could've mined that same amount again. So production capabilities of Basalts have been halved unless they have a hauler with them.
Good point about Dublin and the mines. I forgot about those. Other fields don't have mines though.
Yes, Basalt wouldn't work with jettisoning every few seconds because its cargo is so tiny. The other little miners would though. I am on your side, I like the old style better.

Quote:What is going on with Chiemsee Asteroid Field in Munich system?
Drop rate of Copper ore is ridiculous (~3 ore per stone)
Yesterday I try mine there and it was good. Is field nerfed or what?
Quote:I'd like real data to back up your opinion please. Mine a field for 10 minutes and post the results here.
Cannon asked for data then data is what I'll give him.
Mining survey
Where: Munich, Chiemsee Asteroid Field Ship: Hegemon Id/IFF : Krueger Minerals Guns: Transport Mining turrets Result: 916 units of Copper Ore in 10 minutes. Opinion: Too low. It needs a boost. Munich could use more activity.
