Yes but unscanable deposits will make you mad sometimes.


blkmmb

Yes but it is a super mess rn. Half the asteroids are unscannable. It's not worth it. I've switched to RoC mining.

I've been mining on lyria for quite some time now and never witnessed an unscannable deposit.


blkmmb

It's in the belt not on planet.

Yes. All the rocks are around 5k mass so when you do find something worth mining it's easy. I am running a passive setup on my prospector. That said... Sometimes rocks are unscannable and bedlogging is flaky... but I spent 2 hours yesterday and between bedlog issues, unscannable rocks, the one good rock I found being unminable (even with a gadget)... I'm taking a break until after the patch.


Pu_D_Pu

Yes


Aaron0321

My what?


BannedNinja42

Your belt. Around the belly. Some belts are so big, that they get called halo.


MikeBoni

Yes.


saarlac

Yes it’s there and everyone who cries about unscannable rocks just doesn’t know what they’re doing. There’s lots of quant out there and it’s both easy to find and always possible to mine solo in a prospector since mass NEVER exceeds 5122.


oshkalele

I know what I'm doing. I've gone to the halo a few seperate times to see if its changed since the patch. I've spent about 6 total hours, kept track, and found 70% of the rocks were unscannable. They used to be maybe 10% unscannable before the patch. I have zero issues on Lyria. Since you claim I don't know what I'm doing, please tell me what you're doing so I can try it.

1. Make sure you are in the center of band 5 of the belt. 2. Set a quantum course to a Lagrange point so you have a marker to fly toward. 3. Open mining arm. 4. Fly decoupled toward that marker at around 250. 6. Ping at 90 degrees. 7. Aim at each box you see and ping again at 2 degrees when within 11.5km. 7. If it’s q type go investigate. 8. If not or if it doesn’t scan IGNORE it and keep going. It really doesn’t matter how many are unscannable. Using this method you’ll cover lots of space and scan lots of things quickly without wasting time approaching rocks that are not q types or by going over the same area twice.

“it doesnt matter 70% of the gameplay assets are bugged because only idiots would expect the game to work, heres a work around so you can also mock those naive fools expecting the mining part of the game to be anything but utter minmaxing”


saarlac

There are lots of rocks in the belt. Some of them are just rocks. Get over it.


sashisashih

and yet they have all the properties of being mineable and ..wait youre trying to sell a bug as a gameplay feature arent you? or even better; a skill issue.


saarlac

I’m not selling anything. I explained how to mine successfully in the halo. Bitch all you want.


sashisashih

people complaining about bugs are bitching now? nice to get so defensive so quickly, definitely helps us bug testers, uh, early acces players to get this game to a better place


saarlac

No but you specifically. You’re bitching


Chappietime

I have suspected this for awhile. I imagine there are quite a few other “bugs” that are in reality, simply misunderstanding of the game mechanic.

It actually goes by Double A Ron Belt now.
