Ive almost done with minig barge skill, planned to buy a Retriever, but after playing with ship fitter tool, Ive became almost shocked. Even if I use all low slots for Co-Processor II, still I cant fit Strip Miner I both on Retriever/Procurer, coz simply it says me I need 240CPU to complete(98% from 12000). With Electronics lvl 5 and two Co-proc II all I ccould get is 189.06 There is no turret slots available, so I cant fit even Miner I. Then what the heck the use of those barges if they cant do the main thing ?
Please correct me if Im lost here.

Dont worry - the Retriever and ships in that class are build for strip miners. They have a special 'ability' to fit strip miners. You don't need cpu upgrades

But how to calculate CPU reqs then ? Technically, Mining Barges have 98% reduction. With 12000 CPU for Strip Miner I , it does exactly 240 CPU.

I read somewhere that the actual CPU reduction for barges is 99%, not 98% as it states. But regardless, the actual CPU cost for a strip miner is 60, not 240. No worries .

That was because of capital ships. High CPU usage of covert ops cloaks and strip miners is to stop anything other than the 'right' ships using them.
Used to be 6000 reduced to 60 on a barge.
Now is 12000 reduced to 60 on a barge.
Mostly because the idea of a dread with a stripminer fitted made TomB cry.

Strip Miner 1 used to use 3,000 tf CPU, and 98% reduction of this means that only 60 tf is needed per unit when these are fitted to a barge. I use a medium barge with 2 fitted. I noticed recently that the description now says that the units need 12,000 tf and I thought that this was odd.
I guess they increased the CPU needs from 3,000 to 12,000 but forgot to change the comment about the 98% recuction - it obviously has a 99.5% reduction when used on a barge now
