Hello everyone! I'm a mining engineering student.
I am very much curious as to how will we able to do mining operations inside the game.
If by any chance we do it realistically(in our current state of technology). In order to mine a lot of resources, you need a lot of things to get before you start a mining operation. Traditionally we only have 2 types of mining method. It's either through Surface Mining Method or Underground Mining Method.
In order to get a lot of raw materials in a short amount of time, you need a lot of people to dig the ground and survey the areas to get possible measurements of ore bodies below the ground. It is not realistic to mine resources with just one person(very funny idea). You need a team to have a good extraction and production and later on sell those resources in the market with good price.
It is very much obvious that without getting raw materials, technological advancement as a whole will be slow. Like, "how engineers inside the game make machines without raw materials" that kind of question.
My final point is... How do we do our mining operations in Dual Universe? Or do we even have such methods to get resources?
Guys....don't hesitate to share your ideas.
Or just let me know if I missed something.
Thanks,
