Default Re: Robo miners/Remote Mining maintenance Reduction

Now, if you are talking about MODS, then you could do what I did. Give transport hulls a reduced maintenance cost, too. My transports get a -25 percent maintenance adjustment. Then, give remote mining components an extra ability of cargo storage. Just the ability, no capacity (set it to 0). This lets you put remote mining components in transport hulls and they count towards the cargo storage requirement. Put as many as possible in the hull, and as little of anything else as possible (to save maintenanc cost). There ya go. Remote mining SHIPS with less maintenance cost. They can turn a profit, just not as much as a base.
