    UPDATE: For whatever reason in 4.0 you cannot sell minables directly to outposts from the ROC. You will have to put you items into a container and lower that into the cargo elevator to be able to sell them.
    Another weird change that happened with the move to preview, but can be worked around.
    Pembroke UPDATE: The 4.0 build had the Pembroke suites completely removed by mistake. In 4.0.1 they were re-added and can be found at Lorville, Tressler, and Grim Hex.

    haven't been on 4.0 yet but as a (value) miner, I started only refining quantinium, and just selling all other ores right away... made more that way with immediate returns and more mining time/trips, not having to wait and then do cargo runs all the time. The hidden asteroid belt was my go to area, very dense and found quite a lot of quant, and never getting found by a single soul getting to mine in absolute peace, since getting there was all about dropping out of warp at the right time the odds of being found were pretty astronomical.

    16:23 a Cutlass Black carry two Prospector loads. You just have to offload one 8 SCU Container into your hangar. Head back to refinery and collect your next order. Before heading out just load the 8 SCU back into the ship (not on the grid) and you are fine! The rear compartment of the cutty has only a 6 SCU (2x3x1) grid but enough space to manualy load 16 SCU into it. But you can only leave through the side hatches.

      Through some testing I've learned how to make the scanning appear in the MFD.
      When approaching a rock switch into mining mode from the pilot seat and wait for the rock to be outlined yellow.
      After that you should hear the sound a rock usually makes when you scan it with the laser, that faint audio que.
      Then switch to scanning mode and the data should appear in the scanning MFD

    Do you happen to know how to view the mass of an asteroid from the pilot seat in a Mole? The scanning MFD tells me the instability and power transfer resistance, but it doesn't tell me the mass. This makes it hard to determine whether I am able to mine the asteroid before heading down to the mining operator seat.

    • @epic_grayfox
      @epic_grayfox  Месяц назад +2

      Currently there is an issue where the mining UI does not appear in the mole pilot seat. They are aware of it and working on a fix.
      A skill that can help this is what I call "rock reading ". Basically the higher the instability the larger a rock is. Instability above 80 is typically a good indication of a larger rock.

      Scrolling it down will do the opposite. Fill the bar to scan directionally, lower it to send out ping on all directions

      Alternativly you can use a general SCU box. Unload your ROC into backpack into SCU. Than tractor the SCU into the elevator an lower it. BUT you have to stay at the elevator terminal an manually transfer the content of the SCU into outpost inventory. You can't sell from the box.

    well slightly informative , shit over all to learn how mine.
    number one , more focus on cost for assets. renting is a terrible way of making money. your more likely to spend more money than you gain.
    this is not a game play loop , its a game play income. used for nothing more then money. to say its a good way of making money is also terrible. salvaging with a good fit nets you a consistant 400k from yela. mining not so much, its mostly travel and looking for rocks you can break. most of the time you will find you cant solo break rocks. the three ores are good, but the refining cost of the lower teirs will be a negative income when refining. s3 fits are sold but not used in game. mole uses s2's but needs a crew of 3 so even its less likely to find rocks you cant break, your sharing your income with more people. astroid mining is less profitable , rocks are more spread out and generally less valuable . income scales up from hand mining , land mining , ship mining. the upscaling means more overall income until you get to the mole, then your losing money cause you need a crew. you can fly without one, but you'll only get use out of one of the lasers if you do, there is three lasers on it. also, DO NOT SCAN WITH YOUR MINING LASER OUT, WILL TURN ALL ROCKS INTO GHOST ROCKS. quent is the most valuable but least likely to net you a profit solo as finding what you can mine is hard . so overall, you can spend more time getting valuable ore , getting less per hour , or more per hour of ore less valuable.
    as a hauling ship to sell refined goods. i advise the cony. good full storage that you can access from both sides and unobstructed grid space like the others

      To be fair, this is a beginners guide and mining is a skill as a whole. Learning all the little tricks to maximize your profits.
      To get the best bang for your buck you'll need to rent your ship and make a day out of mining and then make a day out of delivering once it's all refined. 32 SCU of taranite goes for 300k+ if you sell it at orison.
      Where you mine has a lot to do with profit. Lyria and Cellion are the best places to mine in Stanton. Come by my streams sometimes when I am mole mining and I pull 500k each load usually.
      Bexalite is great to mine and sell directly to the refinery for faster turn around.
      If you're looking to make the most money as fast as possible then you can grind out 100k missions in Pyro pretty fast. Have friends making a million an hour. Important thing is to have fun with the gameplay you're doing.
