This article will provide a detailed introduction to how tool borrowing works in Mission Control.
The article is divided into the following three parts:
Part I: Miners (Lessees)
Part 2: Tool Owner (Leasee)
Part 3: Tutorial
Quick summary: Powered by gHubs.io (Galaxy Incubator), Mission Control offers the possibility of tool rental. Players with extra tools (e.g. idle mining tools) can grant others access to their tools by staking them into Mission Control. Players can retrieve their tools at any time and passively earn TLM earnings when the tools are used by others. On the other hand, miners can use these premium tools when they are available without having to purchase them. Both parties have built-in security mechanisms that ensure the payment and return of tools.
The Alien Worlds community has been clamoring for a tool borrowing feature since 2021. Until now, borrowing tools has come with considerable inherent risk: you could be flagged as a bot, not get paid, or there’s no guarantee that the tool will be returned - which is bad for both parties. Now, more than three years later, and with the support of gHubs and Naron, Mission Control has finally been able to implement a solution that allows players to safely rent tools to other players and passively earn money from other players using their tools.
Rationale: Players with extra tools (e.g., unused mining tools) stake their tools to Mission Control. This allows Mission Control to provide these tools to requesting miners for a single mining attempt. The tools are transferred to the miner, the "mining" is performed, the tools are transferred back to Mission Control and the tool fee is paid. All of this is done in an "all or nothing" transaction. Therefore, outside of these transactions, the tools always remain in Mission Control and the tool owner can retrieve them at any time.
Miner
In Mission Control, miners can borrow a tool and use it for a single "mine". As part of the tool borrowing process, you will always use a single tool on Geothermal Springs. (The only exception is the Certified Kol Digger tools, which are always used in groups of three on Land: Sandy Coastline for rank boosts.)
And because tool borrowing mining transactions are much more complex than normal mining, the transaction also consumes more CPU than normal mining. Mission Control will pay miners for CPU to offset this loss.
In addition, it should be noted that as a borrower, you are still subject to your level control, and you need to reach the corresponding level to use more advanced tools. In Mission Control, the tools you can borrow will appear in your list, so don't worry too much unless you want to use more advanced tools.
You can only use the following rental tools:
Mission Control can only provide tools that are pledged to Mission Control for borrowing. Not all tools (types) are available for use at all times.
Borrowing tools is always on a first-come, first-served basis. If another player borrows a tool faster, it will be placed on cooldown and will no longer be usable until the cooldown period is over.
Matches individual cooldowns since last mining. If you mined five minutes ago, then all tools with long cooldowns are logical - unusable until enough time has passed.
You can also use tool borrowing as a mining button in Mission Control. In the mining configuration, miners can choose which tools to accept as borrowing tools for the mining button. This may be due to personal preference, such as only using TLM heavy tools or only using balanced tools, etc. Whenever you use the tool borrowing mining button, Mission Control will select the current best TLM tool based on your preference list and use it for borrowing/mining. (If you don't understand, you can check the tutorial below)
Due to the way mining deals work in Alien Worlds, miners always receive the full mining reward for a mining deal (TLM and shards). Therefore, to ensure that miners can pay for the tool borrowing process, miners need to deposit some Trilium before mining. This can be done on the "Deposit" page of tool borrowing. Then, when a tool is rented, the player receives the full proceeds of the mining operation. The borrowing fee is deducted from the deposit. The amount of the fee is a percentage of the TLM that the miner earns through mining (depending on the rarity of the tool), which is used to pay the tool owner's tool fee and Mission Control's facilitation fee.
Tool Owner
As a tool owner, you can utilize your idle tools while you are sleeping, working, or on vacation, or simply have extra tools. This allows you to passively earn TLM through other players using your tools, without using them yourself. You can stake them on the "Stake" page, and you can also unstake them at any time on the "Unstake" page. It is important to note that unstaked tools may still be in cooldown. Every time someone uses your staked tools, you will receive rental fees. You can claim your accumulated fees on the "Deposits" page.
Currently, Mission Control has enabled borrowing for the following tools, covering all possible Shine levels:
myth
AI Excavator
Waxtural Processor
legend
Ether Converter
Exlian Staff
Lucky Drill
Particle Beam Collider
Quantum Drill
epic
Dacalizer
Localised Attractor
Quark Separator
RD9000 Excavator
rare
Artunian Shovel
Barrel Digger
Draxos Hammer
Large Capacitor
Large Explosive
Tool borrowing has been a long-awaited feature, and we hope it lives up to everyone's expectations. It should both increase the use of tools in Alien Worlds and increase potential mining returns for players who currently cannot afford to mine for advanced tools.
Tutorials
This guide takes the mobile phone as an example
Both mobile and PC versions are practical
1. First, open the Mission Control website in your browser: https://waxmissioncontrol.io/, click [PLAY] in the upper right corner of the page, and log in to your WAX Cloud Wallet.
If you don’t have a WAX Cloud Wallet account yet, you can create one by following the WAX Cloud Wallet creation tutorial.
Login MC operation process
2. Click [TOOL LOANING] on the page to enter the tool rental page.
Enter the tool rental page operation process
There are two cases:
First, as a lender (tool owner who needs to rent out his own tools), you need to pledge your own tools to the Mission Control platform for renting and collecting rent. (Note: You will only receive rental income when a player borrows your tools for mining.)
Click [Stake], select the tool to be staked on the staking page, and click the [Stake] button below the tool. After the wallet authorizes the transaction, the page will show a prompt after the tool is successfully staked: Tool staked
Staking tool operation process
The specific proportion of the rental income of the tool can be seen on the pledge page. It is a certain percentage of the number of TLMs that miners obtain by renting the tool for mining (depending on the rarity of the tool).
The staked tool can be redeemed at any time. Click [Unstake], find the tool you want to redeem on the unstake page, and click the [Unstake] button below the tool. After the wallet authorizes the transaction, the page will prompt after the tool is successfully redeemed: Tool unstaked.
Redemption tool operation process
The detailed leasing situation can be viewed on the redemption page, where you can see the pledge time, total income and number of leases of the pledged tool. Every time someone uses your pledged tool, you will receive rental fees, and you can click Withdraw on the "Deposit" page or the redemption page to collect your accumulated fees.
Secondly, as a borrower (borrowing other people's tools to mine), you need to click [Deposit] first, enter the number of TLM to be deposited, and then click the [Deposit] deposit button on the right to deposit TLM. After the cloud wallet authorizes the transaction, the TLM deposit success page will have a prompt: Deposit successful.
Save TLM operation process
The deposited TLM is used to pay for tool rental fees and the facilitation fees of the Mission Control platform. The rental fees for mining with rental tools are paid according to the corresponding percentage of the number of TLMs in the mining income. Please rest assured that you will not lose money.
Also note that if you reach Skyrider level, you can use Mythic tools. It is recommended to deposit as much TLM as possible, because Mythic tools have higher mining returns and require more rent. For example, you may need to pay 100 TLM and get 120 TLM from mining.
After depositing TLM, click [Mine] on the tool rental page, select the tool you want to borrow, and click the [Mine] button below the tool to rent the tool and mine once. After the transaction is confirmed, the mining success page will have a prompt: Mine successful.
Leasing tool mining operation process
Note: Tools that do not display the Mine button have not yet reached their cooldown period, so they cannot be borrowed. Due to the rarity of the tools, the rental fee for each tool is different, and the mining income is also different. Because the mining income is not fixed each time, even if the same tool is rented for mining multiple times, the rental fee each time will be different.
Rental income
After leasing tools for mining, you can compare it with the deposit balance before mining to see that the rental fee has been deducted. By comparing the changes before and after, you can calculate the single profit.
The above method of borrowing tools for mining is not very efficient. You need to find tools that can be rented first, and then click Mine to mine. Because the rental tools are on a first-come, first-served basis, they may have been rented by someone else when you click Mine. In this case, the page will report an error, and you will need to re-screen the tools for rental mining.
So in addition to the above borrowing tool mining method, there is a more convenient, faster and more efficient way: set the tool rental mining to the mining button at the top of Mission Control. You need to set your personal preferences in [Mining Config] first: whether you want to mine as many TLMs as possible, or as many fragments as possible, or a balance between the two.
[Mining Config] The default tool rental personal preference is to select all rental tools. If you have other ideas, just select the tool you want to use, put a ☑ in the box behind it, deselect the unnecessary tools, and then click [Save Config] to save your personal preference configuration. After authorizing the transaction, the configuration success page will have a prompt: Config saved.
Tool rental personal preference setting operation process
Then click the navigation icon in the upper left corner, return to the Mission Control homepage, click [MINING], scroll down on the mining page to find [Mine Button], and set it to Tool Loaning.
Set the top button operation flow
Changes in buttons after setting the top button
After the setting is successful, you can see that the button above changes from yellow to dark pink. When you click it, it will directly rent the best TLM tool according to the personal preference list of rental tools you set and use it for mining once.
If you have been using tool rental for mining, you only need to pay attention to the TLM deposit balance above the button and replenish it in time to avoid mining failure due to inability to pay the rental fee.
Receive mining income from leasing tools
The method of claiming TLM income from rented tool mining is the same as the method of claiming ordinary mining income. You can click Claim under [Mine] on the Mission Control tool rental page to claim mining TLM income, or you can click to claim rewards on the official mining page. Note: If the page shows a countdown, it means that it is less than 72 hours since the last claim. You need to wait for the countdown to end before claiming. This is the current official rule. The income can be claimed once every 72 hours. If you do not claim it, it will not affect the income, and the income will automatically accumulate.
This concludes the tutorial guide for tool rentals! 😝
The mining tool rental function launched by the Alien Worlds Metaverse community has greatly optimized the game experience and profit potential of players. Players can safely lend or borrow tools, and both parties can achieve a win-win situation. Tool owners can collect tools with confidence and obtain passive income at the same time; ordinary miners do not need to buy advanced tools, and can rent and mine when the tools are available, thereby greatly improving the tool utilization rate and player income. This function not only promotes the efficient use of tools, but also comprehensively improves the overall game experience of the Alien Worlds Metaverse.
Finally, I wish you all a happy mining! ❤️🤑
