here is code i altered in the ai/mining.lua starting from line 117

    elseif valid(minedAsteroid) then
        -- if there is an asteroid to collect, attack it
        if ship.selectedObject == nil
            or ship.selectedObject.index ~= minedAsteroid.index
            or ai.state ~= AIState.Attack then
print("mining")
            ai:setAttack(minedAsteroid)
        end
    end

 

as you see i set the server to print "mining" when this runs. the mining vessel is in sector -194:406. you may notice that mining only prints when i am in that sector plus once on startup. i hope this helps you fix this

Yes this helped, thank you! Fix is in testing right now.

+1 for this. Disappointed to say I just had the same issue.

 

Thanks Cepheni.
