But where do I find the good hotspots around the bubble?

I would use the Elite Dangerous Data Base search as below to find potential systems based on my current system as reference or browse around the other forums to see if anybody is talking about locations instead of just talking.

Bodies - Search & Find - EDDB

Bodies in Elite: Dangerous - search, filter, find and sort systems ... and find the materials you need!

What about the "extra" charge that gets added when the chargers detonate? Very annoying to set all your charges in the blue only to get a red boost when you detonate,changing a 15 count to a 10 or lower.And don't tell me its just a graphical glitch .

I just read that Fdev ruined core mining? What has happened?

Well, they removed the ability to fly away from the Core and have it respawn, which SUCKS! That was a super time saver! They thinned out, as far as I can tell, Cores in general. I spent 6 hours last night looking for VO Cores. I found them but dear God, I usually find one within 10 minutes or less and had the respawn to just keep mining it, made life SO MUCH easier making money, and, from what I saw last night.... they made fake asteroids (non-cores) look nearly identical to Cores, so now, you THINK you hit a VO Core but it's not and a waste of a Prospector Limpet! I stared mining Cores around 11pm last night and finished a full load of 128t around 4:45am, AND I had to accept LTD, which I always just pass by, but was so tired and frustrated I just mined the LTD Core just to get it over with!

It's deceptive and broken! You think you're in the Blue, shows you in the Blue, but... one or more of your charges were slightly overcharged, not enough, apparently to SHOW YOU on the graph, but enough to hit the red zone upon detonation. This is a bug, IMO. But hey FDEV, let's not fix THIS, let's make Core mining even harder and leave that bug in place too! Jesus!

Yeah, that red thing, it's broken. The actual charges are working ok though. I'm still cracking them into between 9-14 chunks and getting around 17ton a core.

Yeah, that's been my experience. I usually see "13 Resource Chunks Freed". Last night I was getting "15 Chunks", which is one positive, when I could FIND a Core!
