Miner Bugged

[xmakina]

Hey there. Spotted a couple of bugs.

Setting a vessel to "Mine and Trade Minerals" results in the ship just coming to a stop. It worked for a while but now, even in Ore Belt, my ship just sits there. I tried moving it around a number of asteroid filled (Seizewell in particular) sectors but nothing. Doesn't even say it's having problems. Just sits there.

Also, Jumpdrive doesn't charge faster in SETA. Never had a JD in X3:R so I don't know if this is a bug or not. I can see the argument for it not speeding up as it's inside the ship which is what SETA affects, but I thought I'd mention it. My main concern is the miner, though.

Hi, can you tell me exactly what you're doing when you go to do the jump? Because it charges faster for me..

What software and hardware is the vessel carrying, mine have the following installed :-

Demetre Miner
25MJ shields
Mobile Drilling system (installed in rear turret)
Fight Command Software MK1 (rear turret set to 'Protect Ship')
Triplex Scanner

Built in components :-

Mineral Scanner
Special Command Software MK1
Trade Command Software MK1
Ore Collector

I don't know how close that is to your set-up; but you may find something there, to help.

Edit: I forgot the built in components

Found the mining problem - only works with standard lasers and doesn't mine the big asteroids (the type that appear on the sector map).

My setup was

Mercury
3 5MJ Shields
MDS (rear turret)
Trade software 1, 2 and 3
Special Software
Fight Software 1
Duplex Scanner

Did you miner happen to have a standard laser anywhere?

As for the jumping - I'm in the ship, order it to jump to a sector. The computer goes says its "Jump drive charging... 10%... 20.... 30... etc." and turning on SETA doesn't make it go any faster. Ships outside mine do jump quicker (hence my understanding the SETA affects your ship and so your jumpdrive)

There are two ways to do a jump in your ship. One is with shift+J and the other through the command console (shift+C). If you jump with shift+J the jump charge is accelerated with SETA. If you do it the other way, it doesn't. That was also like this in X3R

No other lasers installed. The miner only started to work once I installed the fight software and set my rear turret to 'Protect ship', then it ran off and started breaking rocks.
