Only basic necessities can be built from Iron, but Iron is the only known material that can be used for building \c(0d0)Inertia Dampeners\c().

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

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.

Special \c(0d0)Salvaging Lasers\c() allow to extract materials and equipment from wreckages.

\c(0d0)Captains\c() can carry out very advanced commands on their own.

The ores can then later be refined at a \c(0d0)Resource Depot\c()'s refinery into normal materials.

Captain's Commands

To read about even more advanced commands take a look at the chapter on \c(0d0)Captain's Commands\c().

However, this requires a lot of energy and makes them significantly less effective than \c(0d0)Raw\c() Mining or Salvaging Lasers.

The ores you collect won't be stored in your bank immediately, but in your \c(0d0)Cargo Bay\c(), so to effectively mine with these lasers, \c(0d0)Cargo Blocks\c() are required on the ship.

Here, you can give simple orders like \c(fff)patrolling\c() a sector, \c(fff)attacking\c() all enemies in a sector, \c(fff)repairing\c() all ships in a sector or even just \c(fff)jumping\c() to another sector.

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

R-Mining

To learn more about them, read the chapter on \c(0d0)Refining\c().

There are \c(0d0)Refining Mining Lasers\c() and \c(0d0)Raw Mining Lasers\c().
