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

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

Re: Hey, another question
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

Re: Hey, another question
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.

Re: Hey, another question
Just imagine the kind of resources you could be pulling in if you formed that into a planet and filled it with monoliths!
No maintenance, and you don't deplete the value each turn.
 Me watches sadly as the poor, defenseless asteroids are strip mined by the heartless machinery of the starbase
