![]() You’ll hear a warning sound if the internal temperature is getting too high. To avoid overheating the rock you should be slowly ramping up the throttle on the mining laser, watching to see how that impacts the rock’s energy and throttling the laser up and down as appropriate. Note: If you overheat the rock it will explode causing damage to nearby objects, including your ship. At 100%, while in the optimum energy zone, causes a successful fracture.Once you’ve moved the Energy Gauge into the green zone, hold it there until the Fracturing Sensor on the right side of the HUD reaches 100%.Is it stable – showing a flat line? Is it increasing – line trending up? Is it decreasing – line trending down? Use that to guide whether or not you need to increase, decrease or maintain your current laser throttle setting. Watch the Energy Transfer Graph (line chart) to see the trending effect of your current throttle setting.Gradually increase the laser throttle until the rock’s internal temperature moves into the green zone on the Rock Energy Level.The Energy Gauge measures the rock’s internal temperature for combustibility.Simultaneously, monitor the Rock Energy Level. ![]() Watch the Laser Throttle indicator to see your laser intensity setting.The mouse scroll wheel controls the mining laser intensity.In order to accomplish this, you must watch the two gauges on the left part of the HUD. Fracturing is a mini-game of heating the rock enough to break it into pieces without blowing it up.To mine, press the key which activates the mining mode called Fracture.Even better, are those that contain decent percentages of multiple metals. You want to spend your time mining rocks that contain the highest concentration of sellable materials. Hover over the rocks identified as mineable to view their composition.The next step is to fracture the rocks down into smaller units that can be extracted. Mineable rocks will be marked with a blue icon and orange outline.Land the ship or float slowing over the surface of the moon pinging as you go.Click the left mouse button to scan/ping the area.Your first step is to scan the area for minable objects. Using the Prospector, there are (4) parts to the mining mechanic once you arrive at your desired location.Įdit June 26, 2018: Click Here for Enhanced Step-by-Step Video Version Available on YouTube Step One – Scan the Area For this first release, we can only mine on moons, asteroid mining will arrive later. They want there to be skill involved, in this case, monitoring and muscle memory are a factor in the outcome. They want all professions to be engaging and require some level of interaction by the player. As was CIG’s intent, mining will not support AFK behavior.
