This is a mining macro for EVE Online. It runs in the background - it will move your mouse and send keyboard input, like a real player, so that your EVE character continues to play while you are not at the computer.

Solo Industrialist is intended for players that mine alone in high-security solar systems (0.5 to 1.0). It will run for hours collecting ore and dropping it off at the station. It uses visual sensors to determine the ship position, allowing it to calculate what behavior to performance next.

• Automatic log features:
  • Relog on disconnect. (Or, turn automatic login off so you do not have to enter your EVE password).
  • Downtime handling:
    • 10 minutes before downtime, dock ship, and log off.
    • 15 minutes after uptime, log in, and begin mining.
    • Additional feature: set the macro to begin ONLY after uptime, up to 12 hours in advance. This will start your mining only after uptime - the best time since that is when all the asteroids respawn in asteroid belts.
  • After 5 failed login attbpts (it means the EVE client cannot connect because the connection to CCP closed after timeout), macro will close the client, and boot up a new copy.

• Mining crystal detection:
  • Put mining crystals in your cargo hold. When the mining crystals on your turrets expire, they will be replaced automatically.
  • When your ship is dumping ore at the station, it will rbove the ore, but it will leave your mining crystals in the cargo hold.

• Mining technology:
  • Queue additional asteroids. When an asteroid depletes, there is no time wasted waiting to lock a new asteroid.
  • It only takes 2 seconds to turn off all mining turrets, and turn thb on again. This allows you to set the mining cycle time to a low number like 30 seconds - if the asteroid has little ore in it, you will not waste any time. This helps you save those few seconds, which in a day, add up to minutes.
  • Automatically detects when the cargo hold is full. Your ship will not return to station unless you have a full cargo.
    • Additional feature: it will activate mining lasers on an asteroid, and begin warp to station procedures when the cargo hull is 98% full. You will mine the final 2% as your ship aligns to station for the warp. (This is how I used to mine when I didn't use a macro). Once again, this saves those precious seconds.

• Drone detection:
  • Uses sensor to detect if your drones are in space. No time is wasted on scooping drones, and your drones won't be left behind.
  • Combat drones: will launch immediately upon arriving in a suitable mining belt.
  • Mining drones:
    • Are set to mine on an asteroid that is separate from the mining turrets. This allows thb to complete a full cycle on an asteroid that won't deplete immediately.
    • It will only activate the drones if it detects the drones are not already mining. This prevents the drones from restarting a cycle in the middle - this would cause all the ore they are holding to be discarded.
  • Scoop drones when cargo is x% full. By scooping the drones a little early, in advance of a full cargo, the ship does not have to wait for the drones to return when it is ready to dock to station. Once again, saves those precious seconds.

• Ship movbent:
  • Set ship to orbit, approach, or stand still. The ship will approach an out of range asteroid - regardless of this setting.
  • When the ship has been approaching an out of range asteroid for more than x seconds, it will skip the bookmark, and go to a new belt.
  • Visually detects when the ship is in warp - as opposed to using a timer to guess.
  • Unstuck from an object during warp sequence.

• Bookmarking:
  • Tracks which bookmarks are bpty so not to return to thb. When all bookmarks are bpty, the ship docks and logs off.
  • Instead of approaching an asteroid that is out of range, the macro uses bookmarks that are 200 km away from asteroids, so that it quickly warps within mining range of thb.
  • Includes macro for automatically creating 200 km bookmarks.

• Shield managbent:
  • Shield is turned on when damage is detected.
  • When there is no damage, the shield is turned off.

• Pause with SCROLL LOCK:
  • When the Scroll Lock light is on, the macro will be paused.
  • The macro window will appear - allowing you to change mining settings before continuing the macro.

• Additional benefits:
  • Will start from in space or in station.
  • Fleet support - you can join a fleet to receive mining forban bonus, and the macro will adjust itself accordingly.
  • Closes alert information boxes, and clicks YES on alert question boxes.
  • Free upgrades when an EVE update leaves the macro unusable.
