Aren't the mining IDs limited with the ship-size they can use? (not including ALG)
I mean, for example, IMG can mine and fill their own lads, but they would be forced to use ships with a cargo hold of (I think) maximum 4300 cargo. Thus, they might be better off having a deal with, lets say, Samura that Samura will haul their mined goods.
EDIT: Also, I proposed an idea for the dev team to give special buffs to "natural" combinations. Such as BMM mining into a Bowex ship, or a DHC mining into a Repex ship (I think those two are partners, might be wrong though it's just a principle). To not just encourage player to player interaction, but faction to faction as well.
I am exactly saying that. If mining companies mine and also transport and sell ore . Then what are shipping companies for ? . What benefit has shipping company have ? . If mining companies can mine on their own can transport on transport on their own and have access to 5 k transport . Then what is left for shipping to make real profit ?
Tell your suggestions about how to fix it
Right now Mining companies can ship themselves and can also mine themselves . In that case people come less to shipping Companies and go to Mining companies because they do both . RP wise i think Mining company just stick to mining not shipping . Like DSE mine platinum and ship to New london themselves then why USI . Delete shipping factions or try to solve this matter

Minning Companies have the ability to mine & transport too, but I suppose RP wise, they are more into mining and are the ones capable of hauling ores when needed and necessary equipments related to the ores.
While RP wise, Shipping companies deal with contracts of supplying any other base and with variety of commodities to choose.
Look if mining company mine ore and shipping ship it . Win't it look good and also good as RP wise . Because mining are for mining and shipping are for shipping

IMG doesnt, as Sathish was kind enough to mention. Generic miner Id cant go above 3600. Kruger does. GMS does.
I suggest you nerf the IDs so that they can carry 4300 cargo max. this is my suggestion. happy? coz its the best suggestion I can get
Right if Kruger can mine and transport then why Republic ? and if GMS mine and transport then why IDF shipping ? If DSE mine and transport then why USI?
and i think Mining companies have access to biggest transport as Hegemon.

also, DSE is a multi tier company involved in many activities. similar to Samura and Daumann. but swince these corporatioins are also influenced politically , this prevents them from shipping ore/mineable quantities to certain sellpoints, increasing more shipping activities
well, if samura can mine and ship, why GMG? because since ancient times, the rule has been, adapt and survive or stay and die. well, if a corp cant negotiate deals with the other corps, it may as well die out or be bought.

Then why they mine? . They decide one thing polictics, engeering or mining why not they pure miners as Kruger ?
