Automatic Space Tether (Vanilla)

Description
I wont support anything SE related anymore, i'm done with the game leave me alone.

!!!CONVERT THE BOTTOM BUILDER SECTION (the lower ring) INTO A SHIP OR IT WONT WORK!!!

Works again thanks to sean47933! thank you very much kind sir

This is a supply line that builds itself. Theoretically infinitely, but Space Engineers usually has other plans.

Usually Projectors have a certain limit, this technique goes around that by dragging the projector along the line and constantly pushing it upwards. I saw this idea on reddit and wanted to try it out, with a little more detailing and a more effective resource management. https://www.reddit.com/r/spaceengineers/comments/7oqwa4/autobuilding_space_elevator_proof_of_concept/

Also Turning the Connector BOT off seems to help it work as well

will there ever be a survival ready (printable) version of this? that would be amazing (I tried it myself but feiled misurably)

Working just fine in 2023. Start the process, once the bottom ring retracts its merge block and connector, convert it to a ship. Don't know if the timing is necessary, but that's what made sense to me to do, and it worked first try for me.

how did you circumvent the height limit?

what can i do if it derails itself. someone pressed the button before we loaded the resources to start the elevator

@firekill222 there is a button in the seating area of the main platform (the one with the ship dock). The scripts will take it from there.

where would i go to start the teather and does it work in creative?
