When a Vespene geyser is out of gas will the workers automatically mine from the nearest mineral patch?


Also what is the optimal number of workers to have on gas in SC2?

No, they will not automatically mine from another Vespene geyser. When geysers are depleted, there will be a visual and audio cue for the player, and then the player must manually reallocate those worker units.

The optimal number of workers on each gas geyser is 3.
