Patch Notes 1.46
New Mining System We now have a new Mining system in Hannon. As each planet, biome is expanded and created it also gets new Mining Spawn locations. These can be utilised to Mining resources out fo the ground using a real-time Mining Rig system.
ORSA License Each Planet will require you to locate and purchase an ORSA mining license. There are new NPC's that have been added to the game to sell these licenses.
For the initial starting locations I'm going to list them and their locations, after that you will need to find the rest yourself as they are added.
Jonas Hawk - ORSA Agent. Located on George Town Alby Patterson - ORSA Agent. Located on New Orion Nelis Strand - ORSA Agent. Located on Starbase-51 Harlen Potter - ORSA Agent. Located on Oesabi Landing
You will generally find the ORSA Agents nearby or on the planet in question.
Mining Rigs Once you have a License and locate a Spawn ZED will tell you what type of Mining Rig is required. You can also check this in advance via the Galactic Database. I have updated it to display the new resources and their Mining requirements.
There are FIVE distinct Mining Rigs
Mining Rig (Mineral) Mining Rig (Metal) Mining Rig (Liquid) Mining Rig (Flora) Mining Rig (Gas)
These are player crafted using schematics. We added the base schematics in the last update and this one sees the FULL FIVE Mining Rigs added.
Again to not make you search the entire Galaxy looking for these schematic vendors below is a list and where to find them. Each mining rig needs to be crafted and you're likely to need more than one of each type.
Tislar Pulot on Habitat Nina (Flora) Ramna Artoli on New Orion (Metal) Sammi Krell on Eden (Liquid) Carra Dira On Galfed Hub 1 (Mineral) Kimi Sander George Town (Gas)
These are basic Mining Rigs, they come with a 500 Unit Hopper and will as stated earlier mine in Real-Time. This means you can deploy a collection of Mining Rigs, log out and come back later and they will continue to mine whilst you're away or even offline!
Generally speaking, these basic ones take approximately 24 hours to fill the hopper but you can pull the Rig and empty its hopper at any time.
