I am having the same issue. I found 5 different asteroids : Promethium, Iron, Copper, Silicon, and Pentaxid was what they are labeled, but only get ice. They also show up on the minimap as Ice Asteroids, but just labeled with the ore names. This was playing EXP 1.8 II and following the mission to go to the Asteroid Field to find the destroyed Station and Ship.
This build does appear to have a number of fairly serious issues, namely: - Asteroid all yielding Ice rather than their named Ore. - HV's Unable to dock at anything due to a problem with the Landing Gear - Windows / Glass Rails vanishing (not rendered) or showing as still present (but damaged) when removed / destroyed. Bug reports have been done for all of these, so hopefully Exp III will see them fixed. The first two issues are hindering progress for me currently, while the third is just irksome.
Btw: Anyone else seeing "Very Rare" loot containers with nothing but basic items like Optical Fibre? Somewhat disappointing. Also, flipped switches not animating. I.e. the switch is in the UP position, gets activated (sound effect plays) yet it remains in the UP position?
It's a bug I am afraid. It is intentional that there are only ice asteroids (as deposits were added the planets) but I think there is some playfield config wrong. Will be fixed in the next update.
love it so far , i hope in some point we could create/purchase these kind of drones to do some scraping for us
I have a strange feeling that this exp version is extraoridinary bugged. LOD is soooo wrong. I don't like this version Empyrion rules!
