What are pwm coordinates?

What I'd love to see is the Ore Processor to be taken out of ships and put into Rock Hermits as it makes more sense there. They have a bigger volume to sort out materials and a much higher energy budget to process "tricky" ores to get the tiny gemstones out.
Whether the player should get near-instant results or have a delay before the mineral shards are processed at the Rock Hermit is a balance issue.

No, but it's on my to-do list...currently my own Oolite projects are killing a lot of time.
One of my projects was the result of a simple discovery that Galactic Misjumps are possible in a way that the OXP of a similar name doesn't do.

...Since currently, I'm almost completely unaware of anyone mining asteroids in interstellar space.
Thargoids seem to always be there but not asteroids or even boulders.
