Hi All,
Started about 3 games, so far, just to explore the Aurora System.
Have managed to build ships, explore, Colonise Mars, and watch a Civilian Mining Colony appear.
But a few questions:
I have tried to build a fuel harvestor:
Oregon class Fuel Harvester 50000 tons 690 Crew 966 BP TCS 1000 TH 625 EM 0
625 km/s Armour 1-120 Shields 0-0 Sensors 1/1/0/0 Damage Control Rating 1 PPV 0
Maint Capacity 12 MSP Max Repair 60 MSP
Fuel Harvester: 7 modules producing 140000 litres per annum
Nuclear Thermal Engine E1 (10) Power 62.5 Fuel Use 10% Signature 62.5 Armour 0 Exp 1%
Fuel Capacity 1,000,000 Litres Range 360.0 billion km (6666 days at full power)
This design is classed as a commercial vessel for maintenance purposes
I even sent it to orbit Jupiter.
But it doesn't appear to be Harvesting anything.
Can someone tell me the process for setting up a Asteroid Mine, and the how to get it to actually produce some Minerals.
I figured out the whole us a mass driver to send them to Earth thing, but I can't get work out how to make one myself, or how to get the one that my Civilians went and sent up on their own.
