Stick a fork in Robo-Miners, they're done!

[Menschenfresser]

I am currently playing a TDM-mopack game in an extra large galaxy with 20 empires. I just modded the mineral miners to mine 1000, 1500, and 2000 minerals respectively.

Comment: If the mining ability is raised high enough for remote miners, then it won't be necessary to build facilities on any planet. This is a bit risky, but very interesting gameplay...and might be worthy of those looking for a challenging role-playing empire to tackle: one that can only mine remotely...for enviromental reasons let us say.

Question: Has anybody actually seen the AI use remote miners? I can't remember seeing one.
