Something like this may draw unwanted attention.

I have a small corp and sometimes get nervous that someone will notice a pattern with my miners. Of course they are not in the same systems.

TJRedleg

Thanks! Adjustments have been made. I've been mining for a long time but that doesn't mean I know what I'm doing when it comes to making calculations regarding yield :( I'm totally ignorant when it comes to that stuff. Mining is a means to an end not the end itself. Pay for gametime and fund pvp.

TJRedleg

My cycle time is 319.92 or 320 seconds. I'm using the Mack setup in the ships setup thread. I'm currently doing one run with a reset time of 640 secs, and I'm pulling 8 cubes. I figure why do I need to reset my lasers when you only get a cube if it completes a full cycle, you get nothing for a parti...

TJRedleg

Thanks don't know why I didn't think to use TeamVeiwer because I've used it before.

Seems to work really well, thanks.

TJRedleg

Well I'm going to respond to my own question just in case someone else has the same dilemma. http://www.tightvnc.com/ Seems to be the answer (TighVNC). I was able to start and run TM and Eve. I have yet to try it "outside" of my lan, BUT I was able to use my routers IP with port forwarding...

TJRedleg

Ok, so I'm at work before the server starts up. I'd like to remote in to my computer at home and get Eve + TM going. I tried using Remote Desktop but I get an error that says the game will not run remotely, in other words I can't start Eve using RD. Is there another program I could use to get things...

TJRedleg

I guess I'm lucky, I've found a system that isn't flooded with ice miners. I've seen one person in the belt I'm in all weekend. Ive gotten really tired of hunting for belts. At least with mining ice I don't have to do anything but make one or two bm's to prep the system. Oh well it looks like I may ...

TJRedleg

Well I'm giving it a try once more. The main reason is competition for veld rocks. Seems there are a ton of ppl in every system I try. Actually Ive found some decent spots but I'm getting to lazy to keep looking for big fat rocks, so I'm gonna try ice for a bit. Even with gate mining it seems those ...

TJRedleg

Depends on what I'm doing but as of late ive been mining strictly veld using jetcan mining. I can do in a few hours what it normally takes all night to do which is mine about 900m3 of ores, whatever they may be. The problem I have at this point is others stripping my belts. Luckily for me I have an ...

TJRedleg

... On a side note you don't need that planet, you could start TinyMiner right in the asteroid belt if you use the Jettison option. Also the gang link mods are active modules so they won't work with your cloaking device. Might as well equip tanking mods in the mid slots. That's good to know thanks....

TJRedleg

Rgr, I'm to mobile for a pos. Besides I don't have the standing.

TJRedleg

Seems I can't integrate my freighter into the operation.

Didn't realize you cannot transfer stuff to a freighter while in space. Not from a jetcan or from the Orca's hangar.

TJRedleg

So I took the plunge and bought an Orca, afterall with TM how can anyone NOT be rolling in billions. I want to use the Orca in conjunction with the new jetcan mining feature. So my basic operational setup is: 1 x Miner in Hulk 1 x Orca setup for hauling with a cloak 2 x computers (note you can do th...

TJRedleg

Cool (no pun intended) maybe I'll dip into some ice mining.

Now if only mechanical datacore prices would go back up I'd be superduper rich cuz I haven't cashed in rp's in a very very longtime.

TJRedleg

With gate mining it isn't to hard to go unnoticed.

I move around but not a lot. I move around mainly so I don't kill all the belts in my favorite systems.

What I've started doing is gate mining on the weekdays, and normal mining on the weekends. Helps keep my belts healthy in both systems.

TJRedleg

I've been pretty lucky gankwise, knock wood.

Maybe it's because I gate mine 95% of the time.

And I don't mine in ice systems which seems to attract a lot of attention from gankers and miners alike.

TJRedleg

Just another way of doing it I guess.

TJRedleg

Instead of taking a break every xxx minutes, give us the option to take a break after xxx number of runs.

TJRedleg

Just curious how many TM users run their barge/exhumer with cargo rigs. I was thinking about putting my miners in freighters and moving all over the place wherever the rocks are fat. The idea will be to repackage my hulk and load up in the freighter and move search for better systems. Of course you ...

TJRedleg

I'm slowly discovering that some of the best systems to mine are the ones with less than 10 belts, sometimes as low as one. It seems that people avoid these systems because there aren't enough belts, they probably think that it will be to crowded. For this kind of mining the best location is one whe...

TJRedleg

I tried it, but don't care for it.

Gonna stick with what I know.

TJRedleg

How much more lucrative is ice harvesting? Is ice harvesting lvl 4 sufficient enough skillwise? I've been leery of getting into ice harvesting because it seems to me that the ice fields are macro magnets and the likelihood of being identified as a macrominer is higher. I suppose I could look for low...

TJRedleg

I would use TMP more often but I can't get over the fact that one of my miners loses to much ore, at least I perceive it to be to much. What happens is one of the clients is always in mining longer than the other. When this happens the client that's mining longer ends up filling up anywhere from two...

TJRedleg

If you're lazy like me whenever you create mining bm's you simply warp to a belt and start bm'ing individual rocks at whatever intervals you decide are best. But what can happen is when you WTZ more often than not you will be put in the middle of a cluster of rocks. Sometimes when this happens your ...

TJRedleg

Jet Can = 23k I believe

TJRedleg

In the past I've used it from dt to dt without an issue. But now I mine about 12 hours a day with two different toons so it comes out to about the same. I also move around a lot which helps. Had a guy in local once ask if I was a "bot", now I avoid that area, but I suspect he was doing the...

TJRedleg

I mine in the Heimatar region partly because it has been declared "safe" by the goonies but mainly because I have some good systems to mine where I have standings with a corp within one or two jumps. This allows me to refine at zero tax/waste dues standing and skills. I mine veld, plag, an...

TJRedleg

Ok I guess you knew this was coming. Request the ability to do multiple leg trips. I'd say a good number would be 10 legs with the ability to drop off or pickup items. The the primary GUI could be tabbed with one tab for mining and the other tab for routes. The mining tab would remain as it is now. ...

TJRedleg

I agree MineX and WarpX both suck really really bad. I looked at Ghostminer as well but it seemed too complicated to setup properly. Lot of cool stuff in GM but TinyMiner/TinyMinerPlus has worked as advertised therefore that's where my loyalty lies. The program has more than payed for itself in GTC'...

TJRedleg

Well over a hundred jumps without any issues.

Good job.

Will you be updating TMP as well? In regards to the overview positions.

TJRedleg

So far so good, no problems.

TJRedleg

Disregard.

I assumed the overview was positioned the same way for mining but it's not.
The overview windows are flush with the edge of the window. Guess it helps to pay attention to the screenshots on the tutorial page.

TJRedleg

The program sets the destination and undocks fine but before it can select a gate to jump to I get an error msg that says the overview window is not the right size or in the right position (I reset windows in eve). The usual fix is to simply turn off this check but there is no option to do this with...

TJRedleg

WOW cool beans.

Will give it a go.

TJRedleg

Right it's not that big of a deal.

I'll do what you said and start the more skilled player first and tweak the cycles some.

TJRedleg

Ok this isn't really a problem. It seems that when running TMP one ship fills up way to soon before the other one. I assume this is because on the second client the laser cycle times aren't in synch because the second client's lasers run a little longer. In other words client one does a 90 sec cycle...

TJRedleg

Ok looks like I'll purchase TMP then. The only problem I've had with TMP is if you turn on the diagnose overview problems feature there seems to be an error on the second client. 1. Both clients undock normally. 2. Fist client selects a belt to warp to and starts the warp process. 3. Program switche...

TJRedleg

I know it runs two clients on one PC.

Do you still get two reg codes?

How about a price break for those of us who've bought two copies of classic?

TJRedleg

For those of you who don't know the Goons have been waging war against defenseless miners in Empire. Here's a link to one of their killboards. http://www.jihadswarm.com/?a=kills I say "one" because this isn't their only kb, but it is specific to killing miners. Notice how most if not all t...

TJRedleg

What: Move ore from your cargo hold to your corp hangar INSTEAD of to your items. Why: The main benefit is that I don't have to interrupt my miners in order to move ore from my items to corp hangar. I only mine in .7 space or higher where office rent is pretty cheap. I have a separate hauler toon th...

TJRedleg

Thanks can't wait to give it a go.

TJRedleg

Thanks the ability to stop the macro without chasing the cursor is good enough for me at the moment.

TJRedleg

This feature may already exist, if it does please disregard. I'd like a hotkey available to stop or pause the macro. For example "Esc" or some other key combo. It would also be nice to pause then resume the macro although for this feature to be useful I think we need to know what the macro...

TJRedleg

It cost to much.

I've already spent to much looking for a program that works reliably.

TJRedleg

Rgr I agree.

The one program I saw seems to work at least from what I've read on their forums. From reading the setup for this program it uses color to recognize where to click.

To bad you cant filter out gates that aren't relevant.

TJRedleg

I'll give orbiting a try. One of the programs I've used that actually worked (but was way to slow) clicked on the approach button. The approach would only last for a few secs.

One of my issues with orbiting is that its not common to see miners orbiting their rocks at least none that I've observed.

TJRedleg

Now if only you could figure out how to create a macro that will warp to zero for me so I can afk travel in peace, now that would be worth something.

TJRedleg

Like others I didn't particularly like the orbit roid command because of getting hung up on a rock. I realize you've incorporated a check for this situation but I'm still paranoid about it. Was wondering if it would useful to have a keep at range feature. For example the player simply enters a minim...

TJRedleg

Ok I realize this might detract from the simplicity of TM but if it's possible this would be awesome.

Two clients on one machine with the same reliability and ease of use.

TJRedleg

So far so good everything seems to be working fine.

Thanks, I was losing iskies waiting for my other program to be fixed since the 1.1 patch.
