RE: The Ore mining system. - Techpriest - 10-15-2014 I believe that the Cryer Pharmaceutical faction deserves a higher mining point on Alien Organisms(at least x3.5). Most of their research comes from these organisms experiments. RE: The Ore mining system. - SnakThree - 10-15-2014 Please remove unneded fields to increase the density of players instead of dilluting it. This means, make only one field per ore in whole Sirius, so that people know it is only mined there, and nowhere else. Having these regular commodities being minable is both, ineffective and unimportant that wouldn't contribute to player activity. RE: The Ore mining system. - Evo - 10-15-2014 Is the bonus for the Xeno ID activated? Swapping from my DSE miner for silver and copper to my Xeno I notice a HUUUUUUUUUGE drop. Not a drop that's characteristic of a 1x-2x loss. I was utilizing a hegemon, Xeno ID/IFF with 4 mining turrets setup to hit rocks with all 4. I was getting 2-3 ore per rock for copper, 3-4 for silver. RE: The Ore mining system. - Vulkhard Muller - 10-15-2014 (10-15-2014, 09:11 AM)Evo Wrote: Is the bonus for the Xeno ID activated?

I was curious about this as well, (my tests revealed the same) though I do wonder about EFL's mining bonuses. It may also be were you were mining. (I hope you were not mining in Colorado because mining there makes Gallic Mining look God like) RE: The Ore mining system. - |nfrared - 10-15-2014 We tried it out at Humboldt, in both the copper and silver fields. It was a long way to fly for just a few rocks. Please fix. RE: The Ore mining system. - Echo 7-7 - 10-15-2014 (10-15-2014, 09:11 AM)Evo Wrote: Is the bonus for the Xeno ID activated? ...

You know what a question mark stands for, right? No matter, looks like it's been answered albeit in a rather rude fashion. I was not sure if this was a reflection of ingame changes to be criticized/feedbacked or a draft or what. RE: The Ore mining system. - Gulryz - 10-15-2014 I think unlawfuls like Mollys and Red hessians who are miner and then turn against lawfuls should have best bounce on their main cargo like for Mollys Gold and for Hessians Diamonds ~Devil RE: The Ore mining system. - Echo 7-7 - 10-15-2014 (10-15-2014, 10:40 AM)Evo Wrote:(10-15-2014, 09:41 AM)Echo 7-7 Wrote:(10-15-2014, 09:11 AM)Evo Wrote: Is the bonus for the Xeno ID activated? ... Sorry; it appears that I have explained what's going on at the moment in a million different places and private conversations, all except here. I reserve the right to be annoyed when people make statements or ask questions that have already been answered. This is a total review of the Ore mining system, to be implemented with the next update. The Admins are responsible for live (aka dynamic) changes to server-specific settings, such as the commodity events.
