Multiplex tracking

[wilhil]

If anyone else reads, I have another question but i do not want to be a hastle and start yet another topic, basically I was wondering when mining from a planet, do the percentages mean anything when you use mining facilities? i know when you use mining ships it counts (i think?) but when you mine from a facility is it a set amount you get, and can the planet run out?

sorry if i sound stupid, i am a noob and sorry if i repeat myself, i am very tired!

Mining from a planet doesn't reduce the resources there. Unless playing the finite setting (where resources are depleted as they are used).

Otherwise, the percentage counts on a planet just as it does in an asteroid field. The higher the percentage, the more you get.

so when it says that a extraction facility mines 800 resources of that type a turn, what does it mean, and how do i work out the real amount?

(i am playing a game right now in the background and i need resources! trying to figure out where to place the extractors!)

thanks

It means a planet with a 100% mineral vaule will produce 800 per turn. A 150% planet will produce 1200 etc.

sounds so simple when it is explained!

Thanks

I believe planets can shoot ten targets, with or without Multiplex.
