Mining rates
Mining rates
I suspect my memory is failing me, so I have a quick question -- I looked about and it seems it takes 90 electric miners to keep a blue belt filled will with ore. Is that a significant change from 0.16?

Re: Mining rates
It actually changes because of bonus:

Re: Mining rates
Right. I got the 90 number from that page. What it doesn't tell me is how much it did or didn't change from 0.16.

Re: Mining rates
Well, you should scroll to the bottom, and compare it to the 0.16 version

Unfortunately the old ones seem to be broken, but the PDF version works fine.
I believe it says 77 miners per blue belt.

Ah, I did miss the link to the 0.16 cheat sheet -- thanks. 77 to 90... so 16.8% more miners needed. Less of a difference than my feeble mind was seeing...

Re: Mining rates
Also worth remembering that mining productivity research also plays a role. If you 0.16 base had a higher productivity bonus than your 0.17 base, then that would make the difference seem larger.
