Titanium should be around 3 - 5 GW, there's either something wrong with your modlist, or you've seen trinium/xanion mining turret. Material zones are different here, so you can see them early on.

no... thats barely out of the iron sectors lol

the 40 gw weapon was literally a blue titanium mining exca launcher

That's around Xanion, at this point you're supposed to have mining Frigates, where that energy is not an issue.
You can read about new gameplay and progression stuff at in-game encyclopedia. X is a different game

when a single mining turret eats 40 GIGA of energy something is wrong

i dont know if its intended, but mining turrets require WAAAAAAAAAAY too much energy
like, UNREASONABLE amounts of energy its kind of obnoxious

I'm finishing one last update. Just checked your idea, feels fun for manual mining.
So... I'll check it for balancing issues, and if nothing shows up there - gonna push it with last update.

Thanks! :D

oh damn, i should have read your latest message to see that you're not modding anymore. That's a shame, you did a heck of a good work.

If i may, after trying a bit the mining system, i would suggest to change the way your rocket miners are working. It should have a long reload time as the player would aim for the rock and not miss it (or loose some productivity time). Increasing the rocket dommage and requiring much more energy to fire (that would add some energy management to it)
Adding on top of it some hazard (like small chances of a rock being propulsed by the explosion and might hit the ship would be very cool)

I suggest that, because i feel like the ever shooting rocket launcher is not very pleasant nor realistic. Give us explosions !

Accepted your invite.
Good luck with SDK, took me few weeks to add support for just KnifeHeart mission pack.
It may be a lot of work to mix overhauls. I'll try to answer any questions, but since Final Content Update - I'm finished with modding.

Have some thoughts on some things I've noticed playing around with your modset as well. Server should be going live in another week or so.

Hey LM, I'm working on putting up a hybrid server between you and SDK mods. Would like some further intel on things while I work out how to make it go right (so far no "bugs!").

I sent you a friend invite, would like to discuss when you have the time?
LM13  [author] 17 Dec, 2023 @ 10:38am 
It was kind of a funny bug ;D but it's gone now. Mine/Repair orders should be safe now,

thank you yeah its not to game breaking but i had my mining carieer fitted with Heavy cannons from the extended weapons mod and they have pretty heavy recoil seeing my carieer move 100+meters cause it folleys a rock is uuhhmm weird sight to see XD
LM13  [author] 15 Dec, 2023 @ 5:06am 
All right, it seems that turrets marked as automatic, set to Defensive/Autofire, will fire at asteroids during mining order. Thanks for reporting. Not a critical bug, but will be fixed.
ZeroOnii-Chan 14 Dec, 2023 @ 1:35pm 
yes it seems to be vary consistant also doesnt matter if turrets grouped or whut mode they are even when turned off befor order AI uses them like they are mining turrets
LM13  [author] 14 Dec, 2023 @ 12:37pm 
Does this happen all the time? I've seen it happen only once on a stream, PDCs got angry at some random rock.

Could be some random bug with AI, but no idea why. I'll have to dig into code to find it.
( And replicate myself to test )
ZeroOnii-Chan 14 Dec, 2023 @ 12:29pm 
Ever sinds i installed Xavorion extended and all its modules my AI mining commands make the ship and all its turrets shoot ad rocks even with the main guns and point defences Ideas ?

Hello there, I've published the version without rocket turrets to the workshop.

Please let me know, if you want it to be taken down. Thanks again for all your great work!
