Arc Furnace location questionH

[GeneralisimoAR]

Hello,
if I mouse over it says i have 18 arc furnace location sites:

but in reallity the system only produces 3minerals .... what confuuses me since I will be getting a boost on just 3 minerals, but some other places that the tooltips show less deposits sites in reallity produces a lot of alloys and ore.


Soo, the arcfurnace multiples the actual production or finds new minerlas that are kind of "hidden". Thank.s

In this new image the tooltips show less locations, but as you can see i get more ore from tehre:

From those 2 images: which place would be better for the arc furnace and why?
thanks.

The Arc Furnace will add deposits on every eligible celestial body in the system. As such it is always best to take the systems with the most deposit sites.

If you destroy the furnace , the already found minerals gets destroyed too ???

Thanks.

What about the unity point in the system? the swarm boosts reseaarch, and the ar boosts alloys and minerales.

does any of those boosts the unity points?

 

[TSBasilisk]

The extra mineral/alloy is added to any pre-existing mined deposits. Bodies with research stations are skipped.

For Arc furnace, always go for the one with the most deposits
Now what I would really like is to be able to mouse over systems and see what is being produced in the star for choosing my Dyson locations

In the tooltip, when it informs the deposits count, does it already exxclude the ones with research on them or colonized planets ?
