It is no longer possible from what i know , mining beams shut off when cloaked now, although when i started playing DS that wasn't the case i may check that right now.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After attempting this it appears that we can mine while cloaked again.
Anyone know why we can do this again? [ This Message was edited by: _SRM_Kenny on 2011-10-09 09:14 ]

I noticed that quite a while ago, but I didn't really care about it

If they fix this, while they're at it, they should have resource collection raise prestiege.
Operating the extractor is the most unrewarding thing in the game (flying dictor coming second), and higher ranked engineers have a pair of harvester beams.
When I was new, I didn't know what to do, so I mined a bunch with an extractor, then realized the prestiege I was gaining was just for time played or something.

Mining doesn't give prestige, it would be way to abusable.

time played, in and of itself does not contribute any amount of pres. never has, never will.

Even if you only get prestiege for the collected resources that actually get used to build something?
You don't think an extractor should get prestiege for providing resources for an engineer (For either platforms or structures)? [ This Message was edited by: Fluttershy on 2011-10-10 17:15 ]

Way too abusable to give points for it, even though it is boring and slow.
Darn, now you're going to get them to fix a perfectly harmless exploit!

We will not tolerate discussion of exploits. Those who got their posts deleted be VERY careful.
