Each planet’s resource types and the number of mineral veins depend on the planet’s level: the higher the level, the more types and veins available.
Extracting Mineral Resource consumes Mechanical Miners and requires voltage.
Number of Mining Plant: Players can construct one Mining Plant per type of Mineral Resource available on the planet.
Multiple Veins: Multiple Veins of the same resource type can establish multiple Production Lines within the same Mining Plant.
Mining Tasks: Different Mining Plant and Production Lines can carry out mining tasks simultaneously.
Mechanical Miners: Invest 1 or more Mechanical Miners to start mining tasks. Different levels of Mechanical Miners have different work durations.
Mining Cycle = [Number of Miners Deployed] * [Work Time per Miner]

Technology Upgrades: Increase Mechanical Miners’ work duration.
Mining Efficiency: Refers to the extraction time per unit of resource.
Base Mining Efficiency: 1 min per unit
Technology Upgrades: Reduce the time needed to extract each unit of resource.
Mining Production: The yield per mining order depends on both mining time and efficiency.
Estimated Production = [Mining Cycle] / [Mining Efficiency]
Technology Upgrades: Enhance the maximum storage capacity of mined resources.
Exceeding the Mining Plant's storage limit will cause Mechanical Miners to halt operations.
The voltage used by Power Plants varies with the Mining Plant's production status. Each production line occupies voltage.

By optimizing various aspects of mineral resource extraction, players can manage miner consumption and improve mining efficiency, leading to increased overall yield and accumulating more resources for planetary development.
