Can't finish a Mining zone (Good) because there are no minerals left even if it says Good. And also the mining zone to the south is too close, somtimes they overlay and bug out, even tho I'm nowhere near the zone it says Depleted.

  • Playing through this, let's call it, unfortunate game now, and I've had this bug as well.  I'd combed through each of these two zones, and nothing shows up.  Whether the mining zone actually shows up in the right hand corner is intermittent and inconsistent as well.  It's almost certainly an overlap bug.

    On PC, there is a solution, thanks to modders.  Download this mod, from this link on NexusMods:

    Fast Mining at NexusMods 

    And apply the mod to your FrostyModManager by simply dragging and dropping the whole zip file into the left side of the mod manager.  DON'T manually install by copying and pasting to the file location - apparently, Frosty does not like this and while installing this way works with some mods, it doesn't with others.

    While this mod is designed for doing all mining zones in one trip, it has the feature of "pulling" all resources left in the zone to you, upon entry to the zone, immediately.  This gave me the remaining resources for depletion from both.  Both zones had an extremely small amount of minerals left.

    Hope this helps someone who's looked this up.  On console, you're SOL - if you intend to suffer through this game as I have, I can't recommend PC enough,as there are quite a few fixes and QOL tweaks via mods that significantly enhance the experience.
