I dont mind the cut in ore prices.. so long as i can get some pay from it.
I agree with a lot of people though about the 'ore in cargohold' thing. While we can mine with a basalt, decite, and mafic, you have to drop cargo once every 5 seconds (litiraly, im not joking) for the basalt, up to once every ~46 with the spatial.
This isn't fun. It also discourages group mining (in smaller ships). Can we please go back to the dropped ore?
