Your Fabrication Unit pumps out two more SCDs while the first sets about making the frame of the automated mine, when the other two SCDs join the first the construction speed picks up quite a bit and you feel the automated mine should be completed soon. Meanwhile your harvester drones finish taking one more shipment of resources from the same asteroid before turning their sight on another, leaving you with a slowly growing stockpile of resources though you feel the automated mine will take a fair amount of ores to be built. Surprisingly as your Harvesters survey the new asteroid they find it also has a deposit of chemicals in its core, seeing this you quickly change one of the drones from gathering advanced metals to harvesting the chemicals to shore up your current stockpile.
After that you turn your focus to other matters, foremost of them being the creation of scout drones which you scour your database for blueprints or even half made notes for one. In the end you find nothing, but as all hope is lost your processes come up with a conclusion, if you created an Orbital Lab you could take apart one of the Interceptor Drones, or Fighter Drones and use the knowledge gained from that to create entirely new drone designs not to mention you'll finally have access to weapon blueprints to work with ...
Some time passes as you allow your Fabrication Unit to finish producing the last pair of SCDs, as it grinds to a halt you examine the progress on the Automated Mine and find that two drones should be enough to finish it up leaving you three to switch over to another task. With that thought you set about rethinking how to proceed ...
Designation: Aegis or Aegis Station 22
Condition: Perfect
Shell: Derelict Defense Network Station 22
Shell Internal Space: Roughly 60% of your Shell is empty and can be used to store further facilities.
Station Hull Status
Central Spike Hull: Good Condition, mild damage and a handful of hull breaches but not to much.
First Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, around a third of the ring has been torn to shreds or fallen away at some point, a large amount of maintenance and repairs will need to be done. not to mention manufacturing new segments to replace the lost segments in the ring.
Second Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, while the ring is mostly intact large parts of it are falling apart or already been worn down to the structural layer.
Third Ring's Hull: Average Condition, only one or two sections of the ring are gone and for the most part the damage to this is mostly superficial with a handful of hull breaches.

I'll run multiple updates (which are essentially turns) as long as you guys have a great deal of things going on, or if I feel it needs to be. In this case I cut it short to let you decide what to build/produce next, and because I forgot to include the option to build the Hiveminds (my apologies on that).
