Re: What to do when asteroids are exhausted?
you should probably never mine things out, with bases. there is a point of diminising returns where the low resource percentage will not pay for the base's maintenance. becareful that a base is not costing more to build than you can get out of the rocks.
personally, i prefer to play with resource reduction through mining turned OFF. if strip mining a planet with facilities will not reduce its levels, why will mining from orbit do worse?
