The Cargo Mover is exactly what it says on the tin. It was designed to move cargo from point A to point B over land. Despite it being a small grid vehicle, the rear connector lines up perfectly with connectors on large block grids. This makes cargo drop offs easy to accomplish. The wheel height offset must be decreased to the minimum to do so, but two toolbar bindings allow you to easily lower and raise the vehicle.

With both an H2/O2 generator and cockpit mounted air vent, the Cargo Mover can be used on all ground environments. The onboard ore detector allows it to be used as a scouting vehicle as well. Finally, full remote control is possible and is supported by four cameras (front, back, left and right).

Three programmable blocks supply the software side of the Cargo Mover. MMaster's Automatic LCDs 2 provides basic information, such as speed and power time remaining, directly readable from the cockpit. The Driver Assisting System (DAS) increases controllability and adds some nice touches in the form of brake/reverse lights, direction indicators and cruise control. Whip's Planetary Bearing & Compass Script adds a compass indicator for easier navigation.

Block ownership

Ownership for all blocks is set to nobody. Make sure to reassign ownership to yourself to prevent the connector of the vehicle from not connecting to another connector. Sharing the same owner across all blocks will also prevent issues with the DAS script.
