Field drain is on still (or has been activated again?).
Tau 23 - Niobium - IMG ID - IMG IFF - Annapurna, 4 lasers
Just drained a field from an average of 16,7 to 8,5 by taking about 60k of ore.
We confirmed that the other field in T23 had normal drops, around 17 again.
Around 5k rocks were shot to make these average values, so they are valid.
Annapurna ship, 4 lasers at same distance was used in the test.
Can we please disable it again?
It is a pain in the behind.
BMM- can confirm this, in the BMM mining field (F-7, base drop rate of *3) our Clydes (4 mining turrets) got an average drop rate of 10 whereas in the Independent field (E2, base drop rate of 2.5) we got an average drop rate of 20 on the Clydes.
Considering people where mining in the BMM field previously today it would suggest that field drain is indeed back on.
If you guys failed to read the update. They can't turn it off right now so your completely out of luck. GMG got it do, I just keep going. It takes longer, so what.

BMM can also verify this. BMM field was atrocious due to over-mining, while the IMG fine was working as expected.
