## Attributes

### circuit_read_resources :: Read|Write boolean

`true` if this drill should send the resources in the field to the circuit network.

Which resources depends on LuaMiningDrillControlBehavior::resource_read_mode

### resource_read_mode :: Read|Write defines.control_behavior.mining_drill.resource_read_mode

If the mining drill should send just the resources in its area or the entire field it's on to the circuit network.

### resource_read_targets :: Read array[LuaEntity]

The resource entities that the mining drill will send information about to the circuit network or an empty array.

### valid :: Read boolean

Is this object valid? This Lua object holds a reference to an object within the game engine. It is possible that the game-engine object is removed whilst a mod still holds the corresponding Lua object. If that happens, the object becomes invalid, i.e. this attribute will be `false`. Mods are advised to check for object validity if any change to the game state might have occurred between the creation of the Lua object and its access.

### object_name :: Read string

The class name of this object. Available even when `valid` is false. For LuaStruct objects it may also be suffixed with a dotted path to a member of the struct.
