Galaxite Ore Boulder notes

• To mine it, put a Crude Drill or Drill on one of its sides and connect the drill to a power source.
• Aim a Crude Drill or Drill at the boulder and wire it to a generator if needed.
• Before building the collection route, confirm that the drill is powered and ore drops out behind it.
• Make sure drilling and collection both work before you add drills.
• If collection is jammed, extra drills will not fix it.
• The cap of eight drills is the number of spots around the boulder, not a requirement for drilling to start.
• The Furnace, Smelter Kiln and Fury Forge all turn ore into bars, but each accepts different ores.
• Pick the smelter that matches the ore.
• Set the Robot Arm in the right direction so that it can feed the smelter.
• A smelter runs by itself once it receives ore it can handle.
• Mining speed changes with drill type and count, placement, and whether hits overlap on one boulder tile.
• Once the drills are powered, the boulder starts to shake and clinks on each hit.
• A fully mined boulder breaks and disappears.
• Ore boulders look like a single-colored 2×2 square on the map.
• No ore: check that there is power and the drill faces the boulder.
• Give a new rig time and compare it with the drilling rate tables instead of judging it after a few seconds.
• Ore collecting behind the drill: check the belt and arm direction, the arm's power, and space at the destination.
• Ore reaches the smelter but is not smelted: check whether that smelter handles that ore.
• The three smelters accept different ores.
• Placement and overlapping hits also affect mining speed.
• The boulder vanished: it has been mined out.
• Move the mining rig to another boulder.
