Re: Query on Sat Mining
You can have a sat mining each resource type in a sector.

Then what you mean is 3 sats is max...one for each resource type, right?

Re: Query on Sat Mining
What I do is find a big enough hull, and have a remote miner for each material. so that I have a miner for minerals, one for organics and one for rads, all in one ship. Therefore, you can mine all 3 at one time in that one location. Of course, if you have several asteroids in your system, then you can have more of them mining at the same time. Just building the storage facilities for all of that extra stuff will take time and you might lose a lot of that extra materials before you have enough to store it all.

Re: Query on Sat Mining
It is actually wasteful to do it that way because you will be making a lot less of each resource while depleting all the values at once. It is better to make your ships mine a single resource.
