The complex strategy would be to create AI-Only mining components that use the Generate Points ability implanted in the last patch, editind the AI Files so they would build some number of ships/bases that used these components (AI tags would be useful here)
Why do you need AI tags? You can just use the generate points abilities themselves.
You are right, i forgot that you can ask for the abilities themselves....

To add to this idea, i was thinking that, instead of a "dedicated" remote mining ship/base for the AI to use with these components, we could create mining components that donīt use any tonnage, can have only one per ship, and rewrite the Ai to use it in all its ships... the drawback would be that AI ships would get pricier and stunt their development a little...

Iīm still developing ideas, and would like to hear any ideas as how to balance remote mining without taking it from the game...
