Doesn't Anyone Remote Mine?

ok i'll have to fix my strategy posted below.
To actually remove the ship from your eyes you have to bring it to the mining field, press sentry. Then order goto-nearest ressuply and then tell it to go back. Check in orders list to ensure its correct. And then press 'K' (Repeat Orders)

i have a game going at work where i must remote mine just to survive. i made a small map using FQM dense midlife. i chose the wrong atmosphere and so have limited # of planets with room for miners. i have a -47,000 mins each turn and +150,000 rads and orgs. good thing for resource converters.

heh, in this case i'd say you pray nobody of the players is reading this topic because if i was a player i would send cloaked hunters after your miners...

EDIT: hmm.. for some reason i thought its a PBW game you have... nm

reason it is so bad is i only have 1 star system the other 3 next to me are taken by the enemies. i have to many bases at the wormholes keeping the enemy at bay. i have finally put a large enough fleet togeter and am going to start "aggressive negotiations" with the enemy.

talk about remote mining. (with crystallurgy)
I have 6k/678/3624 resources from five ships.
Only thirdth of it, not counting organics, goes for maintenance. And im just playing around with asteroids.

i decided to play without crystalurgy this time. boy was it a mistake. i miss the discount on maintenance.
