...I am a bit impressed by the mining equipment changes, seems the asteroid is a different one, so, let me give you some notes on that Scree..
-Different Asteroid, so, naturally, rock is different, sand is different, it has coal and platinum, possess much less iron than we are used to, still a lot, diamonds are much more rarer, so is silver, uranium is as rare as silver, gold is a bit more prevalent, platinium is the same as gold, plasma is slightly less rare than iron, coal dominates most of it. These are not stadistics, I am just seeing a geoscan from the asteroid.
-This is all built in an abandoned mining facility, so, we lack the security mining station (aka booty bay), and we have... a xeno infested graveyard, I Don't thing anything is alive there but I am seeing many biological remains there... maybe Kayleen could transform it to something useful again..
-Science area has some sense and some nonsense. it posses a neat system for the individual rooms where you can make them hotter and colder, but it has an omnifilter that nobody will be able to use thanks to space constrains.
-Mining has an unimpresive kitchen, but they seem equipped with some interesting tools... I am reading the inventory and list something called 'ore detector' for each miner, and I am a bit pleased to say we have drills and advanced drills now to make, but, what's interesting is that outside of the mine base there is an space dedicated for minin drill braces and minin drill heads. not entirely sure what it's about, but since they have batteries and chargers near I can guess the new drills run on power. Seems the asteroid we have assigned now is thicker.
-Noticed that the west mining station lacks jetpacks, I think we should requisition some Acacious, and I again request for miners to be assigned GPS units, it's a pain to rescue people on orbit around the station without one.
-oh, one more thing... seems that mining also has assigned one of the new intelligent rigs, the industrial model, I look foward to see field details on that one
