An option to continue to use the same belt until empty would be awesome.

Many thanks.

If your mining folder only has 1 belt bookmarked then it will only mine that belt.

This option would make the app more 'human like' which in turn may help reduce the chance of being labelled as a macro miner.

If I was to just use 1 bm then tiny miner would stop once the belt was empty.

Say I have 10 belts in my list, that's great but when someone is not afk mining they usually mine from the same belt until the rocks are gone then move on to the next one.
Having an option for tinyminer to return to the last belt until all rocks are gone then mark as empty would be an advantage.

Thanks

This is exactly the opposite of what everyone else is saying. A bot will mine the same belt while a human player is more random and will change belts. Also if you're always in a different belt people won't even notice you. This is all explained in the Features page on the site.

ok, maybe things have changed in the last 6 months as I've just been logging in to set skills and nothing else.
The last time I mined solo or as an op I would set up a bm in a belt and just mine from there until all the rocks are gone and then move on.
But if random belt mining is the norm then fair enough.

I can see what you mean about not being noticed if you are using random belts though.

Many thanks.
