Miner not mining?

[SamSmoot]

I don't remember what the nodes are called, but some special nodes that have timers can be respawned by going to other nodes for a limited time. He may have been trying to refresh it or was trying to respawn a node with the correct bonus he needed for his gathering

Thanks. I suppose they might be the Ephemeral ones. I keep seeing one pop up occasionally. Usually they just have worthless, unsellable junk on them through.
