Default Re: Remote mining reduces production?

I think adding in an official "Deep space mining" set would be awesome. If you took all those remote mining components out of their current spot s you could group them together like this:

Tech Level 1: small expensive mining components that give lots of resources per turn put reduce the planet/astroids value.

Tech level 2: Large expensive mining components that give a small return without reducing value

As time goes by your remote mining components would become cheaper and the returns they give could potentially become much greater then that of your surface based mines. This would give players the choice of whether to specialize in remote mining or planetary mining, plus the ability to choose whether to take the huge amount of resources each turn at the cost of polluting the galaxy, or go the slower way with a larger initial investment and a small return forever.

Maybe one of you mod-people could work on this and send a complete set to MM?
