So, I found a rich asteroid.
OMG, it's huge. And they have a shit ton of resources lol !
I have uranium for eons now :D

Ah ok !!
Many thanks man.
For the key, I think it's "V" when you're on the pilot seat, to activate the scanner, and then, you need to click on "Scanning" at the bottom of the pilot console to see the anomalies.

Oh, sorry, so the rich asteroids are not going to be in the asteroid fields where you mine with the smaller extractors. The rich asteroids, like gas clouds, are found by scanning for anomaly signatures in your cockpit. I forget the hotkey to enter scanning mode, but you'll find the rich asteroids that way.

Should I scan them like I do when I scan regular asteroid in an asteroid field or should I use another kind of scanner ?
Or maybe a specific cartridge ?

Thanks.
So, for the Strip mining, I think I had what you said.
But are the rich asteroid the biggest ones ?
Are they rares or are they all the biggest ones ?
Should the ship be close to it, and how far ?

I found a lot of very big asteroid but none seems to be rich asteroid.

I think the issue for me is to find them :D

Glad you like it! Strip mining is a little confusing at first. You scan down the rich asteroid, fly to it, on the SM you select the asteroid on the left screen before starting the drill heads on the right screen.

The ACTR placement was mainly my personal preference. The big room is usually for the strip miners and extractors to pull all resources, then of course the refinery rooms, reactor staging, assembly were all for their respective uses.

Players must expect to spend a lot of time to setting all the ship up before starting to fly it efficiently.
I advise to do that before starting the adventure with it, this ship have the potential to increase the QoL of their owners after a complete configuration. So take your time.

Forgot to mentionned that I started to setting up the automation. I like the way you placed the ACTR. There a big centralised room where most of them are placed. But there is also a few on the essential rooms, like the refiniries room, the assembly room, and so.
Very useful to have them under your hand when you're on these rooms ^^

So, I made the modifications and it's working like a charm ^^
No need to separate the reactors.

Anyway, I think a good thing to do when a player is build this ship is to get at least 4 PU rods, 2 turbines, 8 heatsinks, 1 coolant, 1 heated coolant, and 2 food cartridges with him. If the player could wear a hazmat suit, it's perfect too.

And before starting to running everywhere to activate the essential devices, closely look at the ship in the ship editor and identifying where the essential devices are located before jumping on it. It's a big ship and you can easily loose yourself if you don't know where to go.

I forgot to say that this is a good ship.
It's a bit slow but it's a big ship too so don't except to fly it like it was a fighter.

I remade the setup for the weapon groups too. I like to have them all activated so I use only one weapon group.

I tried to use the strip miners but I gloriously failed lol !
If you or someone else could explain to me how it works ?

Good to know about the room ventilation for the reactors, thanks! Also I don't believe there is a grav anchor on this design.

I just subscribed to this ship. Gonna test it.
First, about the nuclear reactors room and the issue you mentionned about it's thermal extraction, I just modified the ship and put vents in all the floor, all the walls and the roof. Gonna see if it's enough to sustain a viable temp on this room with the 2 reactors running with PU-241.
I subscribed to another this that have the exact same issue and did the same modifications and it fixed the issue.
About CPU, I have too much issue with its management so I totaly avoid CPU on my server configuration ^^

I'll probably try to find some room to put a gravitational anchor (I didn't pay attention if there is one placed on the ship when I edited it).
