Once depleted by miners, the asteroid explodes in rather random and dramatic ways.

...not to be confused with the exceptionally wonderful ship and structure explosions we already have.

To be honest i really dont see them exploding. I see them more imploding since your pulling the minerals out of the roid.

implosion ftw be nice if sound effect as well like some sort of crumpleing or vacume sound to kind of make you aware hey stop reading your book or homework you need to shoot new asteroid.

I think having them crumble into nothing would be awesome to watch but exploding doesn't really make much sense unless they have some sort of mineral inside that causes it.

How about them breaking apart so you now have two smaller asteroids? Or a geode-type design, with a hollowed-out core of a rough sphere, representing the minerals having been harvested? Perdy perdy :D

Who would be around to see it? All miners are bots and/or AFK.

I don't always post on the forums, but when I do, I post with my main.
