Description
Baern Mining Equipment’s newest design is the Mining Carriage for 4 persons with warp capability. It is a no-nonsense vessel meant for extended voyages to outlying planets for resources. Although it is armed and is skinned in combat armor it is NOT meant for combat. The single hull and light weaponry is only meant to provide protection while mining for resources. While in space the dual mining turrets are used to collect ore from asteroids. While in an atmospheric environment the modular mining attachments are used meaning the crew doesn’t need to ever be exposed to the elements. If the crew wishes they can even use their mining drones, or smaller mining vehicles by releasing them from the hangar.

Modular mining attachment "MMOD1" can be found HERE.

Thanks for the very kind words! I think your additions are perfect. I'm glad you were able to use the extra space to your advantage. Although not essential, I try to make my craft a bit more 'fluff' based with things like bunks and a head and such. You hit the nail on the head with the Gravity Generator. I had to sacrifice something to keep this thing so small and still have a hangar bay. I've got a few more CV's in this same theme that get progressively larger, but they aren't quite as polished. I'll get those done and up on the workshop soon.

(continued from the previous post)

Some things I tweaked or added:

I play alone most of the time so I swapped out one of the drill turrets for a multi-turret so I could take down POI stations, both drills work amazing, great placement and great lighting.

I added an additional harvest container (there was space for it in the hanger bay in the ceiling.

I added an on/off switch for the repair station (in an attempt to save energy).

I tried to come up with a way to add a gravity generator but failed, I am guessing this is why there wasn't one in the first place. I get along okay regardless but sometimes I got frustrated with the floating around when trying to get down the elevator.

Great CV, works perfect for mining operations, thank you so much for sharing this with all of us.

If you ever design and build a bigger version of this beauty can you please let me know, I would like to be one of the first to the list to try it out.

MC4PW has been a great little mining CV for me. I used it as my first CV with the purpose of collecting up resources from distant planets and bringing those resources home to help build and equip a larger CV. MC4PW has fit this need perfectly. Maneuvers well, good amount of storage, able to fit my HV in the hanger as well as my SV on top and my mini-SV for POI attacks docks nicely underneath. Fuel consumption has been good, O2 storage is sufficient, I love all the access points around the ship, I found a use for all of them. I have not yet had a chance to try out the modular mining attachments but plan on it eventually (See next comment post for more, would not let me post such a long comment).
