X2 High Yield Asteroids Too Small For Mines [Resolved]
Posted: Tue, 13. Nov 18, 13:06
Hey Gang,
I've been trying to plan my universe-spanning mega-corporation (before doing the first mission), but the size:yield ratio of asteroids seems to be inverted - whenever I go to check out high-yield asteroids, they all end up being almost small enough to pick up in my Disco, and the low-yield 'roids could just about be called moons.
This is with the Steam edition of X2.
Ive gone through this a couple of times. The first time, I thought that maybe it was because it was installed under Program Files, so re-installed Steam in C:\Steam. The second time I thought it was because I install all my games on my Linux-based NAS using Samba, and Microsoft's mklink command, as I have had the odd prog get a little confused with that setup.
The network setup...
OS: Windows 10
Install Directory (Logical): "C:\Steam\steamapps\common\X2 - The Threat"
Install Directory (Actual): "\\Server\Public\Games\Steam Library\common\X2 - The Threat" (mklink /D C:\Steam\steamapps "\\Server\Public\Games\Steam Library")
So, trying again, I renamed the link directory, made a new steamapps directory, and did a fresh install of X2, then went around looking at asteroids again, (before doing the first mission), and am getting the same results.
Do I have to progress through the missions to a point where these high-yield asteroids "grow up" so that I can put mines on them?
Have fun!
