compatibility and mining issue

[Talesin]

1) Im positive i didnt have mounted any piece of gear that wasnt hogosha (or at least it was bought on the same station as ship, so i guess it was hogosha / farmers gear)
though i still had dismounted non-hogosha equipment in my cargo - dunno if that might cause the problem o.O

i even tried to fly the ship stripped to the bone (only ID + scanner) and twas the same 90% pwr output reduction.

2) So if i wanna do some mining, i cant make any choices and everything is predefined according to what i choose to mine ? that is pretty disappointing... not to mention i have very limited cargo as a miner with that ship :/

Is it possible, at least, to mine say 1k ore > jettison > relog to char with big-ass cargo transport ship (logged out at the same coordinates) > tractor the jettisoned cargo into transport > relog to miner n repeat the process ? or does the ore disappear when i log out to switch chars ?

Anyways tyvm for your explanation so far man

1) Having hostile equipment unmounted in your inventory does not affect the power output... no clue what could cause that nerf if you were using only hogosha equipment.

2) Yes, the Hegemon is the biggest mining ship available for mineral-ore mining.

The Ore doesnt necessarily despawn, however sometimes it does. Also, the F1ed ship might "drift" several k away while not being logged, also NPCs sometimes tractor cargo.
So yea, that variant is rather risky.
