Description
Since 1.2, I heartily recommend to use refinery modules with a manned module of some kind, like my cuppola tug or something like that. Mining without engineers is now about x100 slower, since the drills overheat no matter the amount of radiators you have.
A stock subassembly called Asteroid Refinery. An update of my old mining module, it’s built with 1.1.3’s thermal considerations in mind, plus the possibility of attaching Drive Pods for self-deployment. Built with 20 of the finest parts, its root part is dockingPortLarge.
Built in KSP version 1.1.3.
