Using Bookmarks This feature will make Discovery warp to your set bookmark(s) and mine from that point. The first thing you'll need to do it to make your bookmarks. You can either set Discovery to mine from one asteroid and not search when depleted or search for the closest from the bookmark. You can set up to 5 bookmarks (they don't have to be in the same belt). Open Discovery, go to the General tab and check 'use bookmarks to asteroids?' to activate the feature. Below this is the option to search for the closest asteroid. Check this to suit. Finally, select the number of bookmarks you've made. Discovery will cycle through the bookmarks, picking the next in line each loop. Random Asteroid Belt To avoid suspicion from other miners, you can activate this feature. Discovery will select an asteroid belt at random. Check 'choose random belt each cycle?' and then select the number of asteroid belts in the system.

It's recommended to offset these times about 10-15 minutes. This monitors your pc clock, so you'll have to work out the time different. For example, if you're in Norway, the server would go down at 12am if the server's going down at 11am in the Icelandic time zone.

'Minutes between transfer' - this is the amount of time Discovery will wait while your ship mines. The ship must not finish mining, so 'minutes between transfer' must be before the cargo is full. 'Number of times to transfer' is the number of times you want the mined ore to be dragged into the can Download Click on black button after click the link if thou failest to understand the language.
