\c(0d0)Iron\c() is the simplest material.

Those can extract the metal ores and scrap metals very quickly, but your ship will have to collect and store the unrefined metals and it will need a \c(0d0)Cargo Bay\c() to do so.

Selling \c(0d0)Resources:\c() Mine asteroids and sell the materials to a \c(0d0)Resource Depot\c()

\c(0d0)Credits\c() are the Galactic currency accepted by everybody. There are a number of ways that you can generate money:

The M.A.D. association recently invented \c(0d0)Cloning Pods\c().

It lacks Armor Blocks, but has very good technical properties and lets you build \c(0d0)Transporter Blocks\c() that increase a ship's docking range.

It is thanks to their simplicity, that they have a way higher efficiency when it comes to collecting materials.

Instead, they'll only break down asteroids into bits of \c(0d0)ore\c().

It's heavy but very easy to form, so blocks made from Iron don't cost a lot of money, but ships made from Iron are rather weak and heavy and thus won't steer very well.

They deal \c(0d0)more damage\c() and have a \c(0d0)higher efficiency\c(), but won't refine materials on the spot.

Docking them together will also make their goods exchange immune to \c(0d0)Hazard Zones\c(), since they won't have to rely on shuttles.

If your ship has a \c(0d0)Captain\c() you don't have to stay in the same sector, your captain will carry out commands without you there.

Raw Mining Lasers (or short: \c(0d0)R-Mining Lasers\c()) are a special kind of Mining Laser.
