[QUOTE="Ambrus, post: 2946784, member: 17691"] [sblock=ooc][COLOR=Gray]Hm. I'd imagine that loading thousands of tons of ore onto a freighter in any reasonable amount of time would require a massive conveyor assembly of some sort in close proximity to both the mine and the freighter's landing spot. Since you haven't described any such infrastructure I'm guessing that the landing pads are actually giant hatch covers for the mine. Once a ship lands it'd connect to the conveyor assembly beneath the surface to begin automatically loading ore into its cargo containers. Is the crewman's price quote for fuel as crazy as it sounds? I would have expected a figure about a tenth of the size. What would be a reasonable cost expectation? I might change Derek's response based on your answer...[/COLOR][/sblock]DRK-1X keeps its telescopic array fixed on Four and even records a brief image of the woman turned man for future reference as she's escorted through the compound.
