4. Ice Ore (c1600-2000**) cobalt, boron, lithium and water. 5. Common Ore (c1000-1200**) chromium, magnesium, copper, aluminum, zinc, titanium, and iron. **usually goes for (the stated cr amt) per unit depending on what faction station you're at (Quantar stations usually pay the least); Also note that each asteroid type has it's own composition of all 5 types (radore;semiore;precore;iceore;common): • rad roid (49%;9%;5%;1%;36%) • semi roid (1%;63%;3%;1%;32%) • prec roid (2%;2%;43%;1%;52%) • ice roid (1%;1%;1%;96%;1%) • common roid (1%;1%;3%;2%;93%) *note that these aren't covered in this thread* approaching a roid: k...I tend to approach roids in a spiral, getting ever closer, but not ever pointing directly at the roid in question...I've died way too much overcompensating on a direct run...But, if yer daring, i find with the starter shield you can ram into a roid going 20 velocity and you'll be okay at 35% shields. You cannot target roids in the radar, the maximum range you can see them is 10,000 distance, but at least these types are permanently fixed in place. Though not really important, except maybe for more advanced mining, is the mining laser ranges. (i deal with this in the advanced mining thread) Docking 101:uhhhhh...pretty sure pitch/yaw/roll is NOT affected by hauling cargo. Also point out that the best turning rate is left/right (Yaw); Hauling 2 units of common ore has mass equal to your Storm class ship. The importance of coming to a FULL stop cannot be emphasized enough (coming from me, who routinely thought that hotdogging it into the docking rings was considered "Cool" and would win me respect from my peers, i hope you learn that discretion is considered the better part of valour by all pilots when docking) The storm with money engines slows a 2 unit haul reasonably quickly...As for optimal approach vectors? Well, assuming you have a rotacol, the best routes for docking are: QuantarCore 6000m distance SolrainCore 6000m distance (docking is a no brainer once you approach from that position) Also. Do remember that your average haul will have a mass almost equal to your Storm class vessel. (all ore types, except ice have the same mass - heavy) Upgrading your ship: http://www.mindphyre.com/UMEC/PIC/JG/shipsnov2001/QuantMiner.jpg
Solrain gear (lowlvlrequirement)...low priced..all within 5000-10000 range (Radar being most expensive) Mining is dangerous, so i wouldn't recommend upgrading your cracker laser. it's rate of extraction is .006 units/sec compared to .008 units/sec for the Broker; The cracker is FREE and is still double the duster/excavator rates...And, if yer new at mining, DO NOT accept gifts of Banker lasers (the agony of losing such a treasure isn't worth the quadruple increase in mining speed) Advanced Navigation: When using the /rotacol command once you've equipped the actual Modx item, keep in mind that you will not see the waypoint switch automatically to your set coord (you'll have to cycle the target list...the one custom waypoint you can set is right before jg wp's) MOST IMPORTANT: Your storm class mining vessel turns best using Yaw (left/right; pitching up/down is NOT recommended) Even more important (concerns not only mining): Do not, i repeat DO NOT, map your movement or combat keys to any keys you might use while chatting...more than once i accidently accelerated while chatting as i mined. boo hoo 1. 179
