I don't seem to be getting the 400% boost to drone mining yield when the Rorqual T1 Industrial Core is engaged?

As far as I tested the mining bonus on mining drones is working, but it is not shown in the show info window.
Please send a bug report, if your tests show something different.

Thanks - that probably makes sense, as I felt I was getting more ore then the "mining amount" indicated. I'll pay close attention during our group test early next week.

EDIT - The asteroids are popping before a drone mining cycle completes, so I haven't been able to verify the m3 yield. We'll keep trying.

Assign one drone to each asteroid, that should help you out somewhat.

Re-tested this with one excavator drone, and did maths by hand. The following results would then be the total yields for 5 drones:

without Indy core - 54.8 m3/sec
with Indy core - 329.1 m3/sec (holy mining yield batman!)

Yeah, each excavator drone is going to be about as powerful as an exhumer.

I imagine there are people already testing a new mining meta of rorquals in the belts, vacuuming up all the useful stuff in one cycle and returning to a citadel before "The Bad Guys" can get three systems down the pipe.

On that note, last night I tried out the Porpoise amd since I didn't have advanced mining drone trained (man yet another book..) I used t2 mining drones.
Jeebus, don't you feed them?? They eat rocks like children eat candy on Halloween.

I can only imagine what excavator drones are like but if regular mining drones are any indication, this will be nasty.

Paired with the new engineering complexes, even more capitals and supers on a 2 weeks basis.
