Actually. lets put it this way so yall quit bickering.
Neither way is more profitable then the other.

Tax: Depends on food prices in the market. as of now they are strangely high which makes taxers have to pay much more for the food to tax their citizens to helI. Can make more then minerals and cgs with the market at certain points.

Minerals: get a * load of planets there you go. research Mining for increased production. Building mining on planets has nothing to do with mineral production. Prices used to be maxed @ 1k, 24/7. now I`m thinking what the helIz. good for me at least. This does not require buying anything on the market, only selling. was 100% sure to sell when prices were max

Consumer Goods: always maxed price, but low max price per unit. High demand, Not enough around. needs high land size, and industry research. 100% sure to sell

CGs and Mineral production can actually be combined. w/ a lil tax from the pop unless you kill all pop. of course

All require the market for its profits regardless of what you think.

No one wins. hah!

Om3ga and Exule were probably referring to two different types of infra... one being infrastructure, the other being infra research.

Yeah, Tax makes the most out of any income type if the mods are all 0 per land with 5k loyalty. Just most races don`t have a good enough mod to use it well, and it has the base power problems. Plus food etc, but still most profitable.

why would AANYONE research mining if it only increased ore times? come on people, get serious. you`re guides???!
I Ishamael
tax is lame. period. the only thing tax is good for is providing me with good planets.

Keep in mind when you do goods your also making minerals also. So you`ll be having two types of minerals. If your doin mineral mining you "can" try and make large clusters and make cgs too for extra money. not really necessary though.

3 Type if A.miner Incomes
1.) Minerial A.miner
2.) Tax A.miner
3.) Goods A.miner

Those are listed from most profitible to least profitible
A.miner naturally dig up tons of minerials. More planets u have the more minerials u dig up.

Tax A.miner. More Loyalty & more land u got the more money u make.

Goods A.miner... well lets just say this is the worst type of A.miner you could be.

A.miner has one major problem for income period. Every type of income we have relies on the market prices. If the prices are bad well then your income is bad.

I tended to just go straight mining and putting zero infa on the planets to keep my base pr as low as I could.. You`ll make plenty of money mining..

It`s a career path for many miners to research miming so yeah, it increases mineral production. But exule is half right - it doesn`t doesn`t increase ore removal. You need infra for that.

Mining gives a pretty good income, depending on server, and has the advantage that you don`t need infrastructure so any size of planet will do the job.

Western if you`re thinking about being tax miner think carefully. The income is good but base pr gets quite high when you`ve got a lot of pop
O Om3gaBlack
Nah, I`m pretty sure researching mining levels increases mineral production...
E Exule
I think mining increases ore removal rate, not mineral production...
O Om3gaBlack
I`d personally concentrate my infra on mining, but then use land for population seeing as it isn`t needed for mineral production =P
E Exule
minerals! heck yeah! woot woot! :D
oh, yeah, and that housing thing too @.@
