Thread: Tuesday Tips August 2nd Managing Harvesters
No no no, here's what you're supposed to do:
Go buy a harvester for 150k
Go buy a droid that tends the harvester for 100k
Go buy a veteran reward that gives you perpetual-power for the harvester for 350k.
Now place the harvester, use the vet reward on it, put a ton of credits in it, and assign the droid to it.
Then realize that your droid it was a useless waste of credits because it never did work and nobody cares about all the bugs, and, in a futile attempt to un-bug your droid, you manage to lose the waypoint to your harvester. Now you are not only out a ton of credits, and the resources you harvested and the veteran reward, but also have one less lot indefinitely.
It's much more fun that way!
Fast harvie naming/admin & adding power/maint macros.
/name Something Clever Mining with waypoint to Vendor;
/set permissionAdmin <name>;
For mid-week service runs.
/addp 10000;
/pay 10000;
/addp XXXX
/nameStructure XXXX
/harvesterActivate
Does anyone know how to calculate the amount of resource you will be pulling from the ground per hour? I'm sure it has something to do with the BER and the concentration. It would jushelp to be able to calculate an exact amount. Thanks in Advance!

Resource Efficiency
x Spec Rate (BER)
------------------------
= Actual Rate (units per minute)
x 60 minutes
------------------------
= Units Produced per Hour
Example:
Resource Eff = 70%
x Spec Rate = 13 (BER 13)
= Actual Rate = 9.1 units per minute
x 60 minutes = 546 units per hour
We need a command that can do the following on harvesters:
/retrieveResources (self explanitory)
We REALLY need this function! ![]()

I found this a long time ago, and still use it to keep track of my harvestors. It will also tell you exactly when you hopper will get full, when it will run out of maintenance or power, and show you in what order you need to check everything.
I don't know how to make clicky's....

Is there is good place to check the numbers on various resources (or are we supposed to remember everything)?

How about making a droid that can pay maintenance for us....oh wait...we have one and it doesnt work still!!!
How about one that will deposit power?
How about one that will allow us to remotely access our harvesters to change and retrieve resources if we are on the planet the harvesters are on?

For two years I wondered why the power droid and repair droids that I saved up for for a long time never worked...
