Bit getting mining bonus - mildiner - 06-23-2014

Ok so i have the ALG ID and full rep with ALD, I also have a Behemoth and using heavey minig array.

im only getting premium scrap drops on average of about 1.6.

what am I doing wrong ?

I am also only using the mining array when mining

You are probably mining in a premium scrap field... let me guess ... Bering or Hudson, at the jump gate debris ?


RE: Bit getting mining bonus - Cashew - 06-23-2014

Different fields have different drop rates, try mining in a different field.

Thanks for the reply, I have tried the premium scrap fields in texes.

from what iv read online the ALG should be able to mine premium scrap with this ship

all I want to be able to do is mine primium scrap effectively at present my ship budget is about 30M credits

Fields have different yield rate. Texas one averages high, I suppose.

Can ALG mine Premium Scrap?

Thought Junkers are the only ones..


RE: Bit getting mining bonus - mildiner - 06-23-2014

Should I be getting more than an average of 1.6 for prem scap. I have what i think is right ship right ID and mining laser


RE: Bit getting mining bonus - Freeroamer - 06-23-2014

I think ALG can only mine Toxic Waste and Normal Scrap..

The Bering and Hudson ones have nice rates too.

"ALG Waste Disposal can mine only Scrap, Premium Scrap and Toxic Waste in the following vessels:

RAT: A small Rheinland freighterclass vessel.
Behemoth: A midsized transport vessel.
ALG "Mover": A large transport. Most commonly used for scrap mining, but expensive. "

Apperantly they can Big Grin

You got t right, just have to try a different field probably. ( You're not the only one mining that scrap xD )

This line might help Smile

"Premium Scrap : ALG (x4), Junkers (x5), Indep. Miner (x2) ON
New London, Bering, Texas, Hudson "

RE: Bit getting mining bonus - mildiner - 06-23-2014

from the mincontrol cfg file

commodity_premiumscrap, 4.0, co_alg_grp, dsy_license_co_alg_grp, dsy_algmover, dsy_behemoth, dsy_ecoturret, dsy_miningturret

so looks like they do.

so i have the Behemoth and ALG ID using a mining array level 4

mining in texes and getting no special bonus.

what am i doing wrong Sad
