They do not deplete the area however they are limited to only be able to mine common ores. **The pylon only checks below itself not areas above, keep that in mind when setting up your mining outpost** Common ores are: * Iron * Silicon * Nickel Resource Claim Pylons come in 3 sizes: **Light** * Interference Radius: 2km * Suppression Radius: 5km * Mining Radius: 300m * 10L per 100 ticks **Medium** * Interference Radius: 7km * Suppression Radius: 10km * Mining Radius: 600m * 30L per 100 ticks **Heavy** * Interference Radius: 10km * Suppression Radius: 15km * Mining Radius: 1000m * 90L per 100 ticks Their yields can be improved with Yield Upgrade modules. Putting multiple ones within their interference radius will reduce their efficiency, a hostile one will cause a drop in efficiency within its suppression radius. {{:guides:advancedoredetector.png?nolink&200 |}}To find common ores you can use the advanced ore detector, These require a bit more power as the advanced oredetectors however can scan up to 15km. The normal Ore Detectors can scan up to 1500 meters. {{ :guides:wikibanner_-_uncommonores.png?nolink |=== Uncommon Ores === }} ---- Uncommon ores will require a bit more effort, these only spawn in Resource Zones. These spawn in the water and require you to setup a mining rig away from the safety of your territory. Only one can we placed in a Zone and require Fuel Blocks to run. The zones will run out regardless of it being mined or not, once depleted it will despawn and a new one will spawn. These areas will require you to defend your mining outpost as other factions will try to claim the resources for themselves. Uncommon ores: * Cobalt * Magnesium * Silver * Gold {{ :guides:wikibanner_-_rareores.png?nolink |=== Rare Ores ===}} ---- Rare ores are can be found in random npc bunkers, or King of the hill style events. Rare ores: * Platinum * Uranium ==== Trade ==== Other ways to get resources is via Trade, either with another faction or at one of the Tradezones. These can be purchased with credits. You will be able to gain extra credits by running contract missions for the npc factions or credits can be found in npc bunkers. ==== Fishing ==== Another way to make credits ( or as a food resource ) is fishing, you can fit a Fishing Trawler block on: * Logistics Core ( 2 ) * Corvette Core (1) * Frigate Core (1) Just label a container "Fish" and deploy your nets, keep under 10m/s and fish will start flying into your cargo. ==== NPC Missions ==== The tradezone contacts block will have various missions, these all will reward you with credits. Missions available are: * Passenger Transport * Cargo Transport * Kill missions Passenger and Cargo Transport will have you transport to other Tradezones or minor npc structures ( soon ) Kill missions will sent you off to various locations in open waters. guides/resources.txt Last modified: 2025/09/05 08:26by darkxerox
