Miners should need fuel

I was thinking about how the orange tree operates, and how it requires maintenence. I was also thinking of the generator suggestion. Well I kinda put two and two together and thought of this.

Why not add a feature to the Automated Sonic / Super Sonic miner, where it needs around 20 chems to start up and get running? It could just require 20 chems to start then run forever, or it could require maintenence and need to be refueled every half hour or so.

It seems unrealistic how a miner can just start up anywhere with no energy source, so let's add one!

Thanks,

It's likely that we will, with a whole small energy system to go with it. We'll see how it goes.

I think you should have to wire them to a solar panel. GREEN ENERGY FTW.

When we build the power system you will probably have to attach them to a power generator or soemthing.
