Okay, so I attempted to build a ship which could basically fly over an asteroid and near-instantly mine the entirity of it. So what I did, was I made an array of scavenger beams, 100 blocks each, with two rows of beams, one of 30 beams, and the other of 31 beams.
Then, after a decently long built, I tried it out, and it didn't work, it happened in conjuncture with the "invisible scavenger beam bug" so I couldn't even see if the thing was firing at all, but the asteroid certainly wasn't dissapearing.
After that, I joined all the scavenger beams together with one focal point for the beam, this again, did not work, I checked the power, and it's Salvage Speed was 1.8593509E-4.
