The miner is not mining till the threshold is met. he will mine for about 3 min or so on the ice belt. he will then warp to the station with an empty hold. He will just keep repeating this indefinitely. "cargo threshold hold has not changed in a while warping to station." I have the cargo threshold set to 1500 and set to mine ice.
Ice mineing misshapps >.<

Ice Mining....
Hey Van,
I have had this problem also. This usually occurs when you have a Mining/Combat drone in your Drone bay. Removing all drones from your drone bay seems to solve this problem. You will have to mess with the settings under main and combat in order to use drones in mining, like the minimum amount of drones in space etc.... also try to offset your max cargo hold, an example would be if your max is 1500, set it to 1495. I hope this helps.

Hey Van,
So you say it works fine on the first run, and then stops working completely? Does the bot continue mining after the first drop off, or does it pause the bot and tell you to check your logs..in console. If it pauses and remains in the hanger, you may need to take a look at your configurations. The problem might be the MDS under the Combat tab, in Minimum drones in space. I would set that to zero. Also, do you still have your threshold on its max? if its 1500, please lower it by 20 and see if that fixes it. I just tested this, please make sure that the amount in the the (Cargo Full Threshold) is typed in without a comma in it. Example: If Max Threshold is 1,500 -->Do not place the comma after the 1 it should be 1500. When I ran the bot to mine with a comma in it. The bot will mine once and collect 154ore and return to base to drop the 154ore off, and repeated. Removing the comma solved this problem.

max cargo hold is 2000 i have it set to 1500.
I removed all drones the drons in space to 0.
The boot keeps mineing but its not staying on the ice long enugh. It will say cardgo hold thresh hold is reached warp to station with an empty hold. then undock and warp back out to restart mineing and will agein cut off shot and return. I have tryed reseting the bot after ever run but that gets annoying and sometimes even then it warps back to station empty.
