At the moment there is no good/clear/elegant way to track when a mineral is 
busy. (IE: When any worker is at the mineral with the MiningMinerals order).

This would greatly improve the efficiency of mineral micro.

Dechnical details:
There is a BYTE at BW::Unit+0xD3, can someone plz decypher which variable that 
is? I 
think it's resourceCount, but if it is, then the naming's wrong. The byte is 1 
if 
someone gathers the mineal, else 0.

It is now isBeingMined.
Post if you think the name should be changed.

Just tried it, it's also reacting when gas is being gathered. I think in this 
case 
isBeingGathered is the more appropriate name.
