/* Mining Rate Explanation */ added devdesk template!
==Mining Rate Explanation==
(This mining information is thanks to Dev. {{DevDesk|name-color=red|devname=Andy "a1k0n" Sloane)|subject=Extraction Rate|source=Email|info=
The rate at which you mine decreases linearly as the temperature increases, and the combination of the two factors leads to an exponential decay in mining rate. The "time to crate" is precalculated and shown to you as a linear progress bar, although in reality you would mine faster at first and slower towards the end of the crate.
This is further complicated by the presence of multiple people (or multiple mining beams from the same person); there is a small bonus to grouped mining but not even Andy understands how that works.
In order to update the temperature of an asteroid after mining, you can use the approximation newT = initialT+dQ*TimeToCrate where dQ is the same dQ from the TimeToCrate formula; heating increases temperature linearly.}}
