Derrick: Gives every Prospector owned by this world 2× carrying capacity and 1.5× travel speed.

How to use it
Gives every Prospector owned by this world 2× carrying capacity and 1.5× travel speed.
It multiplies Prospector carrying capacity by 2× and speed by 1.5×. Prospector Holds research multiplies the improved hold again. The Derrick changes mining craft only; raid cargo is unaffected.
Requirements & connections

Choose satellites for this planet’s purpose: production, mining, raids or intelligence. A satellite affects its own planet, unlike research shared across your planets. Read orbit slots to plan installations.
