The asteroid will be the primary workplace for Shaft Miners.

The largest and best established base on the asteroid, the mining station spans the fracture through the asteroid, and is roughly split into living quarters and ore processing/EVA. Most doors require Mining access. Mining Station access is required for external airlocks and EVA.

The eastern and northern outposts both have ore pipelines that lead back to the main ore processing area. The disposals unit leads to a 3x3 tile airless cavern that is impossible to escape without mining or teleportation equipment.

As the mining asteroid exists on a different Z-level from the station, it is often used as a place of exile for Heads of Staff and Head Revolutionaries. It is also spared annihilation in case of a nuclear explosion or self-destruct.

Mining station is also often a hive of scum and villainy.

Shuttle

This is the lifeline between the main station and the asteroid. It's the only reliable way to get between the station and the mining asteroid. Contains a crate for processed minerals. Also contains an ore crate, which you will probably want to use.

Production Area

This is where most of the action occurs will never occur. This room contains an ore sorter, a furnace, and a stacking machine, as well as the consoles for their operation. They are all made obsolete by cargo's ore redemption machine.

EVA

Contents (for those of you who can't count):

  • 3 suit storage units containing full mining (ZIS) hardsuits (suit, helmet, mask).
  • A pickaxe.
  • A mining satchel, for collecting ore.
  • A mechanical toolbox.
  • A tank dispenser, which has 10 pure O2 tanks ready for use.
  • A fuel tank to recharge jackhammers.
  • 2 ore boxes in the airlock.
  • GPS devices for when you die so telescience can retrieve you.

Living Quarters

This little complex serves as the combined kitchen, dormitory and bar for the outpost. Apart from the vending machines, the only source of food readily available is a box of donk pockets and the microwave. If you're feeling particularly ambitious, you could ask cargo or botany to ship you some additional foodstuffs.

On this section of the station are a telecommunications room (so you can scream for help when a goliath or traitor murders you on the asteroid), a small medbay with a sleeper and first-aid kit (so you can heal fellow miners or hog the first-aid kit for yourself) and a maintenance room (to fill your air tank, though you'll never need to)

The living quarters also have a single toilet, which doubles as a disposal chute. The three bedrooms have classy mining-brown bedsheets. Enjoy the scenery.
