For miners, will there be missions to sell what we mine to something like the distribution centers, so that it can then be hauled away with other hauling missions?

TL;DRThere will be resource-gathering missions where players can mine, buy or steal goods and deliver them to a location that produces something, though hauling missions are currently static and reactivity depends on StarSim.

Yeah, as I mentioned before, this is the resource gathering type mission, so we will have missions that require them. I know the question is to miners, but you can steal those goods, you could buy them from somewhere that's really cheap and bring them over, or you can mine them. It's a choice that I want to give the players so you can choose whatever gameplay you are interested in for this mission. But yeah, we're going to have missions where you have to bring resources to a location. And then naturally, that location would then take those resources, produce something, and then another location would then consume what that location produces. And that makes the hauling sort of mission. Currently, hauling missions are very static. They're not reactive based on the location's inventory amount. That's something more on the side of StarSim, because that will keep track of things like that, so it knows what to generate and whatnot.
