I've just dl the SEIV gold demo and trying to figure out how to do remote mining. I designed a ship with cargo storage and one of those remote miner thing on it and sent it to a planet but there is no button i can press to tell it to start mining. Help!

Re: Help
Unless someone responds sooner, I'll build one in my current game and see what's up. Don't normally use them myself.

Re: Help
THERE IS NO BUTTON THAT COMMENCES THE MINING.
And you don't need cargo storages either.
All you need is a Remote mining component in your ship, and send it to the nearest uncolonized planet or asteroids and then you are done.
it starts automatically.
To tell that it is mining, there will be a little symbol that looks like a mining cart filled with bluestuff on your ship status window.
Funny how life's solutions are right under your nose eh?

Re: Help
Hehe, ya beat me to it TerranC . Yeah, just highlight the ship that has the robo-miner in it and you'll see a little mining cart which shows that it is mining. You have to first place it in/next to an asteroid field...

Re: Help
Also, the Empire Status screen (F11) has a line showing the total resources being mined each turn.
