Tuco-tuco MkVII (Gravity Drive Vanilla Miner)

Description
No Mods. No Thrusters. No Jokes. Survival Ready.

Tuco-tuco MkVII is the latest in the Tuco-tuco series of Gravity Drive equipped miners from Platinum Technologies.

The MkVII is the first of the series to do away completely with conventional thrusters, relying solely on its powerful gravity drive controlled by an advanced Fly-By-Wire system.

Sporting 18 Large drills, a large cargo container, and a Jumpdrive, the Tuco-tuco MkVII can quickly mine and deliver 2-large cargo containers full of ore to any outpost in the sector.

The powerful gravity drive is capable of operating in space and on moons with natural gravity up to 0.25g with a full ore load, regardless of atmosphere.

Utilizing space saved by removing the thrusters, the MkVII also comes equipped standard with a gravity-assisted 14-connector ejection system to quickly jettison unwanted ores.

Sorry to see you go from SE. As for how it's working I've not changed a thing, it runs without timers, and what errors it gives don't inhibit its functions, iirc it's got a minor complaint with a display features. If and when I upload it I will give you full credit, I certainly couldn't have come up with it. Take care and well wishes.

The original script (TOG) was removed because it used old API instructions and the old timer setup for triggering. As I understand, Space Engineers has moved past such scripting block/timer setups, and I have moved pasted Space Engineers itself.

That said, you have my full permission to re-upload the script with any fixes or modifications. All I ask is that you state that is based off of my old removed script.

Would like to thank DifferentLevelDan for the The One Gravity Drive Script.

I little curious myself where, I've been using TOG gravity drive script for a few years now. Had to extract it from an older ship and keep the thing in a notepad doc when ever I need it these days, still works like a charm, unlike most grav drive scripts I've tried.

Always reference back to the old link for it workshop builds, but wouldn't dream of reuploading without permission.

I actually ended up making a ship just for showing it off recently, since I kept using it but didn't have a good way to demo it when the engines are tucked in corners hidden from view.

What happened to your Gravity Drive? I was going to use it but I saw it removed.

This is the same as my previously released MKVI, but with updated scripts for SE updates.
