A player testing the Rhino mining vehicle in Elite Dangerous found the gameplay engaging but noted earning about 50 million credits over two hours. They discovered that placing mining rigs near deposit edges might allow deploying more rigs due to distance constraints between rigs. However, the rig deploys beneath the vehicle's rear, complicating precise placement at deposit boundaries and forcing a trial-and-error approach. This mechanic influences mining efficiency and suggests players may need to adapt strategies for optimal resource extraction.
- Rhino rig deploys under vehicle rear, limiting placement precision
- Edge placement may increase rig deployment but requires experimentation
