MiningLaser is a ranged version of the Extractor. It can mine ore deposits such as Asteroids, Mountains and ore deposits. MiningLaser outputs 2 resources per second, just like the Extractor. It consumes 25 power per second and it will raise create more heat than the Extractor. It is recommended that you have 2 Coolers per MiningLaser
In-game description
"Fires a concentrated beam of energy when powered, which is used to mine objects such as asteroids, mountains and ore deposits. This works similar to an extractor, except it indirectly extracts power from other natural sources. When the laser hits an object, it will extract resources from that object and put it in attached bins. Very useful for creating mining vehicles to extract resources. Unlike the extractor however, this is far more efficient. The MiningLaser outputs 2 resources per second, unlike the extractor which only does 2. This means the laser is 1.5x more efficient. However, the mining laser generates more heat than the extractor. At least 2 coolers are recommended per mining laser."

Trivia
- If a part blocked MiningLaser, It won't extract to Ore Deposits.
- Despite the description saying it is better, it has the same mining rate as the Extractor, it's only advantage is range and the fact it doesn't have to be spaced out.
