Description
WHI - Moon-Mining Transportation Carrier
(Updated 2020-04-24 to fix scrips and LCD settings)

The MTC-2 is a rover dedicated to moon mining operations and carries it's own ice-powered mining drone.
It comes equipped with 6 large cargo containers, 1 hydrogen tank and 4 medium cargo containers dedicated to storing ice to refuel the drone.
The drone only carries 1 large cargo container but can make several trips back and forth between the rover and ore deposits and fill the rover with ore long before the ice reserves run out. It also comes with a unique secondary "eco" setting that turns off some thrusters to not overload the limited hydrogen distribution between thrusters from the 6 generators when flying in the moons gravity field.

For some odd reason, when everything full of ice the Hydrogen boosters will refuse to turn on

Someone please tell me how I can rate this.. FunkyBacon definitely deserves high ratings, I just don't know how to give them.

If you have no power, check to make sure the batteries are turned on. This works fine for me and I have pasted it as well as built from projector. I have yet to find any mod that interferes with this so, just check the batteries and also maker sure the ship is completely built.. if the batteries or another part is not fully built, it may not work.

When or how exactly does that happen? Have you been connected to a base. did you just spawn it in or construct it manually? Are all batteries red/empty?

You should Really make the Drone [PAM] Autominer compatible, i would make great use of that. and it would introduce more people to the Wonders of [PAM] Automining!

Alas i don't manually mine anymore so the drone is pretty useless to me, but i'll probably see what the truck as to offer!
