A returning Elite Dangerous commander has reported a possible bug with the Type 11 mining ship's Multi-Limpet Controller (MMLC). Prospecting limpets appear not to expire or detach from depleted asteroids as expected, causing a buildup that limits the number of collector limpets deployable. This reduces mining efficiency and could impact resource collection strategies for commanders relying on the Type 11. The community is investigating whether this is a gameplay change or an unintended issue affecting mining operations.
- Prospector limpets do not expire, causing buildup.
- Collector limpet deployment is reduced, slowing mining.
