Default Re: How to Mine Asteroids?/Effects of Storms?

Lintman: Thank you for blowing away good theory with bad empirical evidence. ;-)

I'd read through the data files, and somewhere they claimed that the cost N listed in the tech data files was the cost per level, with each level costing N*Level RPs. Because of a minor technical detail (I'd stopped sleeping because of SEIV, so my wife & I agreed to uninstall it for a time), I'm currently running on lots of notes I took before the uninstall.

I'm actually a bit annoyed; I've done a fair amount of calculation based on the tech formula above. Should have known I needed to double-check with the game itself.... 8/
