Idea: make stone part of early gameplay


To get rare elements like gold you can use stone_ore

Getting rare gold_ore (and other rares) on no-gold planets to make first ship-drill


Stone_Ore drops by mining with MK1 drills (always)

Stone_Ore drops by mining with higher drills (optional)

-> Maybe high level drills will have optional stone_ore setting?

Drill ships poop out surplus stone_ore via conveyer_sorter?

Drill ships kill surplus stone_ore via coveyer_sorter/TinyBlackHole


Uses Blocks/Mechanics

-> Stone Mill (turns stone_ore into tiny amounts or rare elements like gold_ore

-> optional: tiny_blavk_hole block (what goes in, never comes out again)

-> optional: AIS (Automated Inventory Sorting) from SE1


Dream setup

Container_DrillShip [P30:Ores]

Container_Base [P20;Stone_Ore:10000]

StoneMill_01_base [P10:Stone_Ore:100]

StoneMill_02_base [P10:Stone_Ore:100]

StoneMill_03_base [P10:Stone_Ore:100]

TinyBlackHole [P99:Stone_Ore]


Ship mines Stone_ore, AIS sorts it, TinyBlackHole kills surplus
