Hello guys i've been trying to mine aluminium ores in munich, but i found something wierd i curently have 1 hagemon with 4 heavy minning array turrets and a Daumman heavy construction ID. and for some reason i can't mine on munich, but i did mine there once with the same specs, i went to deliver on New London and went back for another run and i simply don't mine anymore . what am i doing wrong ?

thanks in advance for the time

Are you sure you are actually in the Aluminum Ore field? The Chiemsee Asteroid field surrounds the actual ore field, try setting a way point for the exact center of that field...it is kinda of oval.....i had kinda the same problem mining Premium Scrap....the actual field is VERY small and you have to be in just the right spot.

stuff

Uh, X-Shuttle is no longer in-game I mean it's Voyager right now but it doesn't bring any bonuses.

Sidenote: what if we made all freighters able to mine on Miner ID?

It's not like they have any high bonus and flying Sunburst around can easily be taken for being n00blet. Sunburst itself, while it's a cute ship, cannot have its engine changed (while IMG NPCs are flying with PTE engines).

struggling.

i ave a hegamon ship equipped with heavy mining arrays and an INDEPENDENT MINERS GUILD id but cannot get any ore into my cargo hold when mining in tau 23 eastern mining area.

what am i doing wrong?

[Daynox]

Are you sure you are in the actual mining zone...it looks like that one is only around 3-4k across...pretty small area.
