I am sorry I really don't understand the point of what you are trying to do.

Why are you choosing to drop on auto instead of every ~110meters like the tools you are using suggest?

thanks for the info,

It's an attempt to find out if the system repays you up to some level. Think of it like crafting on full condition.

I see a huge difference, from the abysmal 20-25% returns, all the way up to 58%. Now, the 58% is really bad also. As it's only one run, it may have just been horrible luck.

It would be helpful, to have a % rate of hits also, if you feel like keeping that day. According to a review that did testing on a larger scale, they found a 91-97% average rate of return, so 58% could be a one-time run of bad luck, but if it continues, something is wrong.

Well konve stopped his thread in 2011 here on ef.com.

However he continued here: http://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/fo...-insane-mining

Anyway i think this can be described as - keep room between your drops
