ARRRGHHHH!!! well, that puts a serious cramp in my style I wanted to be a true capitalist, I wanted to exploit them asteroids for everything I could squeeze out of them, and NOW I find that the GODs play an evil trick on me

You CAN disable that in Settings.txt (I do). Not sure if you can do it mid-game though. Can someone back me up on that?

You should be able to see the effects of changing that setting mid-game as it has nothing to do with the map itself.

YEAAA, back to exploiting for me

Actually I wont change the settings, so I don't get used to something that is not the norm in PBW games.

[Fyron]

Remote mining is not very useful in stock se4 (the PBW norm), actually. It is just so easy to start building planets within the first 110 turns or so.

Just to clarify:

With Proportions mod and in infinite resource games, remote mining doesn't deplete value right?

[Fyron]

Yes, it does deplete the resource values.

[PvK]

In Proportions Versions 2.5.3 or higher, remote mining does not reduce resource values.

In Proportions Versions 2.5.2.2 or lower, remote mining does reduce resource values.

That's with the recommended default "unlimited resources" setting.
