Default Re: Remote Mining

Unless you have an very low maintenance, I think remote mining is a waste in this game. I think this could be improved greatly by changing how quickly the planet degrades, making it dependant on how many resources are being mined from it that turn.

Even on a tiny planet, 5 Monolith IIIs and a robotoid facility III will generate more resources than a remote miner over the planet would, plus you don't have to mess around with building up the planet values again after you strip mine it.

Just my take on it, maybe someone else has actually found a use for them. *shrug*
