Make it so instead of the oil derricks going up and down to mine put a drill on it and make it go into the terrain

Well, they aren't mining coal or something else, they are pumping oil.
So I don't think so.
But it could be done in a mod...

i think we need some uppgrades in game so the oil derricks are more efficient...

Erm, we already have them.
Those are power upgrades: Power Module, Gas Turbine Generator, Vapor Turbine Generator...

Power Generators and Oil Derricks work as one united system. One can't work without other: they are fully connected.
So upgrade of one of them affects both.

ok. thank you for the enlightenment.

well. on topic: the power generators burn oil to generate power, couldent there be coal deposits where you could build a mining thing? oil and coal are basicly the same thing, fosil fuel...

Multiple resource types have been disscused before, and ended up being rejected as they would add too much micromanagement.

but i mean that there would be coal deposits that works exactly as oil derricks just a different model and the deposit is something like an abandoned mine wich you rebuild the same way with oil resourses...

Well it would be nice if theres like metal to collect or mining the metal ores...
Oil - Fuel, Electronic stuff...
Metal - Armor, Chipsets...

As many people already said...

This is a fast RTS game, not a realistic war simlation.

aaw...

Yeah, what KuKY said. Playability outweighs realism - the addition of more micromanagement of that sort will not happen.
