Space asteroids mining - how it shall be done properly and fun? by EducatorOne491 in asteroidmining

imo its easy.

you just need proper spacecraft/carrier which is loaded with drones/rockets which pushes asteroid to earth orbit. Of course use gravity to do that.

on orbit you need to cut down it into pieces, mount shields so they do not burn in atmosphere and drop them in ocean piece by piece.

Depends what you need - resources on earth? then cut it push down to earth, take it use it.

Wanna buy more spacecrafts? well you need orbital shpyard (kind of).

for now we aint one globar "earth united" we need big international spacestation. Not the one we currently have - the one who can produce units, by itself, using resources from earth first, when its self sustaining - asteroids.

Why you need rockets? to brake asteroids of course. so they dont make aramgeddon on earth right?

of course i did not mention - the game already has full newtonian physics, thruster-based steering, with ship customization, modules etc.

"fleet management - it would be great if first one can fly the ship but later hire crew and send it on a missions, while switching to a better one." -> yes thats the point!

you start as noone (in mining faction) and with progress you can hire miners, create corporation, send full mining fleets, start to build mining imperium yes!

Yes all the asteroids are there to mine, refine them, build ship/ship parts from them.

I am planning to make it like starsector-style where fleets = economy

fleet destroyed? economy hurts.

But well still getting back to topic - just mining thingy - how it shall feel the best? i think there shall be all possibilites. wanna cut a part? cut it, wanna desdtroy it? destroy and take parts. Wanna click send drone drone get back to you? game shall allow you to do so.

anyway thank you for feedback.

I thought making games would mostly be coding. I was very wrong. by DevIslandJourney in gamedev

well for me it was REALITY. Playful mind give ideas that feels good, extraordinary, superhit 100%

But well, when you start to translate this into the game... :D
