BUG!
Can't start autominer unless i follow these steps:
1. Comm in and tell them they can't "Know all Trade"
2. Wait 5+ seconds in the map
3. Comm in and tell them to AutoTrade
And that's if it works at first. If it doesn't, then I have to add more 5 second waits:
1. Comm in and tell them to stop AutoTrade
2. Wait 5+ seconds in the map
3. Comm in and tell them that they can "Know all Trade"
4. Wait 5+ seconds in the map
5. Comm in and tell them they can't "Know all Trade"
6. Wait 5+ seconds in the map
7. Comm in and tell them to AutoTrade
And that's if I'm lucky, because one took me 3 attempts to launch.
So in review, this only seems to work with a few miners. i was trying to set up 10 L and 20 M and it functioned like absolute crap, not to mention that after 25 it didn't work at all. I couldn't start the 26th after 20 minutes of trying the above. I sold everything and started anew after reinstalling the mod. There are still some issues with 2xG/S miners, but it's significantly faster that default.
With 25 miners, it scaled up gathering as their storage was filled. I.e., an empty vessel would gather 1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4-5-5-6-6, etc, every 10 ingame minutes. Once it was in the thousands, it would gather hundreds. But each of these are 10 ingame minutes, so it would take forever to fill.
I'm also noticing that everything seems to be based on 10 minute timers. Gathering and unload are both based on 10 minute timers. My miners will sit outside my PHQ for 10 minutes before returning to mining, and they don't always drop everything. Seems like there's a threshold, among other things. I've seen them return at 100% capacity, 50% capacity, and 40% capacity. I'm currently back up to 4 L miners for my PHQ. Is there a way to scale this timeframe down? If it transfers all/most of their inventory, why do they need to sit for so long?
