Asteroid Mining

by Silari

Allows sending rockets into space to mine for asteroid bits, which can be refined into raw materials for infinite ores. Includes all 5 vanilla ores, plus Bob's Ores and Angel's support. Now with partial Krastorio 2 support. Advanced Mode (in beta) allows generating resource patches for mining using gathered materials, with rates based on the ore generation settings of the surface. Support for multiple surfaces is included, along with Space Exploration support.

Hello! Would it be possible to make an option for the rocket_launch_product to be affected by the current mining productivity bonus? I understand even 30% is unbalanced, but how about a factor (1/10th for example)?

Not currently possible. You can't give recipes/launch products a productivity bonus. That's why the advanced mode option exists which spawns the ore instead, so you benefit from your mining productivity.

Factorio 2.0 made this possible, so it's been included in the next version. 1% productivity per research level of Mining Productivity for all of the ressource chunk crushing recipes (the last ones that give you the ore) if the option is enabled.
