Mining

Overview

There are many resources that must be collected in the world of Evospace. This guide will list each resource, and where it can be found.

Yield

Yield is a percentage value. It indicates the maximum total mining rate of a resource deposit.

A Yield of 1000% means that 10 Drilling Rig can extract the resource at full speed.

A Yield of 50% means that one Drilling Rig can extract the resource at half of its maximum speed.

If the combined mining rate of all Drilling Rigs exceeds the Yield, the mining speed is limited to the Yield and evenly distributed among all active Drilling Rigs at same deposit.

Deposit size

The total amount of ore available before the deposit is depleted.

In versions 0.20.x, depletion does not destroy the deposit — instead, the extraction rate slows down to the minimum value.

At the minimum rate, the resource becomes infinite.
