I've never tried it 12 on and 12 off tbh.

It's really simple.  There was a patch some time ago that changed how ore fields spawned.  This caused energy minerals in the ground to make things like giant pen*s in the ground.  Well naturally I would place my well over top of the balls, Kinda into the shaft.  So day 1 the minerals get pulled out fine at a rate of 1500-2000 a tick.  Then I come back 24 hours later and the wells are pumping at like 300 a tick.  I go over to the well and scan it and a circle under neath the well is gone and it looks like it's only pulling from the few tiles just outside the circle.  I can come back 24 hours later after that and the energy well will be pumping out 0 AP.  I can scan the energy and it will be just a little energy on both ends there.  I end up having to move the well 2 more times to force a new energy field to spawn to get it all out of the ground.

What I am trying to tell you guys, is In a 4 day period I might have to move an energy well 3 times(on the same energy field)

Now for a Stable base you have to use 4 wells..........(that's just a normal base with NO guns.)  It's painfully tedious.

Pfft

Yeah, I'll try to be on tonight and take a group out.

There's a reason why eve has a cool down but offer various other mechanics to finding wormholes across the map.  I hope one day that the developers will see that have a carefree zone to 100% lawless is well unforgiving to new factions.

But then again the reward versus risk is kinda iffy as is.

I know it was over powered but I just want to be able to carve out a mountain.

We weren't autopiloting in yesterday's brawl.  It happens when lists of explosion, shooting of plants etc...  Honestly if they could just turn off the mechanic that spreads damage, it's cool in theory and concept but it's creating an undesirable side effect in pvp that weighs more than clearing plants.

I love these type of threads.

My favorite game of all time was mech warriors 2 mercenaries. 

I loved hiring other pilots sticking them in my ships and having them do my commands as I sit in a command ship.

Please delete my steam topics too about lag since I cant, thanks.
