Confusing Minig Tutorials - podgie_bear - 10-25-2010 I have read the mining tutorials and somethings are not made clear by them. They state that to get the mining bonus you need; 1) A Mining Ship 2) Mining Turret 3) ID 4) IFF What is not made clear is whether you need to rigidly stick to these or can mix and match them. For instance using a Hedgemon+Turret+BMM+BMM for Gold in Dublin should give the bonus. Would it still give you the bonus if you mined for Diamonds in Omega 11? Would it still work if your ship is a Behemoth, or a Ragnar? They are still a mining ships, just not BMM ships. What about id your ID is BMM and your IFF is ALG? These are all valid according to the Tutorial in satisfying the requirements for the bonus, but would they actually work? And purely from a technical point of view, just why would we need the IFF to match if we had the ID? It shouldn't make any difference. (I know that is to keep the program happy, it is just unrealistic) Confusing Minig Tutorials - jakub963 - 10-25-2010 Well i guess its matching rp. I doubt that kujira with bmm id, img iff will get a bonus while mining iridium in delta. Confusing Minig Tutorials - Cris - 10-25-2010 Quote:using a Hedgemon+Turret+BMM+BMM for Gold in Dublin should give the bonus.If BMM has no mining bonus for diamonds(which as far as I know it doesn't) then no. Quote:Would it still work if your ship is a Behemoth, or a Ragnar? They are still a mining ships, just not BMM ships.Behemoths and Ragnars work only for ALG, as do the Salvager, Recycler, Combat Service Freighter, Collector, Combat Service Vehicle for junkers, if you want a BMM miner you will need a mining ship, dacite, basalt, mafic or spatial; otherwise they are just normal trade ships and no bonus. Quote:What about id your ID is BMM and your IFF is ALG?No bonus. You must have all four conditions for it to work For the whole info go here, there it's all explained very well I think Confusing Minig Tutorials - podgie_bear - 10-25-2010 So does that mean that in 4.86, when Gallia wrecks Bretonia space, you will need to change everything to Gallian metals to continue mining there?

Would it still work if your ship is a Behemoth, or a Ragnar? They are still a mining ships, just not BMM ships.No, they wouldn't. What about id your ID is BMM and your IFF is ALG? Nope EDIT: NINJA'D BY CRISFG Confusing Minig Tutorials - podgie_bear - 10-25-2010 One final question, does the mining bonus exist in SP? So I can try out which path I want to go down, as you obviously have to plan your whole course before you start. Confusing Minig Tutorials - Coin - 10-25-2010 quick mining tutorial: shoot the rocks, avoid the pirates, dont shoot the rocks that dont belong to you Confusing Minig Tutorials - cmfalconer - 10-26-2010 No, the mining bonus thing is a server-side FLHook invention. nothing worthwhile is client-side, so you can shoot rocks all you want in SP, you'll not get more than 1 or 2 if that. Actually, there's a great mining guide on the Wiki as well. Go there and search for "Mining Guide" to check it out as well. |
