  1. Mining machines are worthless.... That's what I can only conclude after building a fuel factory and working with it for a few days. The max that the whole factory could produce was only 1000 l. of kergon a day. Now, isn't that an eye opening thing. 

     

    And then the strange but frustrating calibrating system. I'm good enough to get a chance of around 75 procent to find the 100 percent hot spot from calibrating all four of them.  There is always one that is more difficult. I found even out that the cone search option is not even 100% correct. I always start from the center.  Sometimes it's exactly the other side that has the spot.  Sometimes I'm right and then I can still find it, but it's tricky 🤷‍♂️ Ah, and the bonus you get is around 4000 ( in my case 4800),  with some luck you can produce more then 5000 l. kergon with it. 

     

    So, in fact, I can find more with just picking up stones than the whole four mining machines can produce. It's if it is just an afterthought for the game. So, let me guess, no respawn of ores in the field, the mining machines produce less then 1000 each day without callibrating. And you pay 500.000 each week for a piece of land? What a ripp-off. On an economical view, it's a dying struggle to go bankrupt, especially since it is not 100% sure that you can even sell the kergon or the ore to get the money together.  The only thing why I did it was because there isn't copper on Haven.

      Mining machines are 100% worth it IF you get a decent set of tiles as well as probably not doing this on haven. You can look in the circle around the mining calibration window and if you see any lighter spots along the edge that typically shows where you should be trying to place your calibration spot. 

      Additionally the more tiles you have surrounding the better your adjacency bonus will be.  This will max out at 60% (10% for each edge). This is a huge help. Also not sure what skills you have on the mining unit handling but you can also increase the amount you get from that. A single T1 Miner can max out at 230L per hour so this would mean you could get up to 5520 per day from a single mining unit that is maxed out. Some tiles can even support more than 1 miner which can greatly increase your total throughput on the tiles you are paying for. 

      As AhandinitFlo mentioned before you should join an ORG as this game becomes much better in groups and will greatly enhace your gameplay experiance with the right people. 

      Feel free to reach out to me if you like, would be more than happy to help you where I can. :) 

      Cheers
