Jet Can mining..... (DONE)

Post by Dustdevil »

I have a question. Is it possible to have TM mining and 'jettisoning' the full cargo, after a preset cycle?
If so I can have my TM mining and I can haul for myself.....does that make sense?

Why not just be logged in on both accounts and manage everything yourself? With good skills it takes a hulk 10-15 minutes to fill a jet can. Since you want to haul it, why not not sit there and jet can mine and haul it in 4-6 times an hour?

I don't think it was ever the purpose of TM to be a jet miner. For one thing, it would be way to complicated and eventually cause some kind of glitch. Secondly, the point of TM is so that you can make iskies while youre afk, so if you want to be hauling it, you might as well be doing the mining manually as well, and give me your copy of tm :)

What can a jetcan hold? 16k?

A rigged hulk with 4/5 exhumers can hold more than 17k. Why leave it out for theives to steal?

If I am Jet canning.. I just turn off TM and have it mine and jet when I am full and haul it off. I use TM when I am afk or can not spend the time actually jet can mining.

I am also playing on 3 accounts. One for Rats, one to haul and one to mine like mad.

When I am afk, all 3 accounts TM each on their own compter. Yes, I bought 3 TM Plus accounts too. Love that Zero Warp hauling feature!

Now in v3.3 you can set TinyMiner to jettison the cargo at the end of each run so instead of going back to station and unload it would just carry on mining. This is especially useful in fleet operations where others can pick up your cans.

Does TinyMiner jettison a new can each loop, or does it move all to one can?

Jettison a new can each run of course. Wouldn't make much sense to unload into the same can since a hulk can fill it in two runs. Bring an Orca with tractor beams to pick up your cans.:)

LOL. Orca and Hulk... Man, I've been away from Eve for way too long.

Your program is really good. It never bugs. Just keeps going and going. I even use your screen setup when I'm at the keyboard -- for mining and jumping. It's really smart how TinyMiner works.
