so you can't have 100 sats all mining? just want to clarify is all.

only one spatial vessel can mine one particular square on the map, yes.

Not quite true. You can have 3 sites mining a sector, as long as they have different types of mining components.

well, then I will stick with my Battle stations then. 100 sats all working together would be a bit excessive, but oh well.

Your miners will not offset the maint of a Starbase (or Battle Station)...best to go with sats and one of each in a sector..no maint and as said can be moved when the resorces dry up

I am playing a solo game with the TDM + FQM mod. As an example of an asteroid is 250%, 230%, 225%. I have a Base station above it with 10 mineral, and 2 each org and rad (lvl 3 extractors). I mine 20kt, 3792, 3568, maint is 3125, 75, 337. So I am getting a large surplus of minerals.

I do remember reading that some mods have been fixed (the mining rate), just don't know if what I see is the norm or not.
