Description
Vanilla | Survival | No Subgrids | Scripts optional | DLC


The M-250 Mole is a simple and small asteroid mining vessel. It is small enough to fit into most hangars and accompany larger refinery ships.

My first Miner! No really, I've never actually built one of these.
It is pretty standard, 2 drills, 2 medium cargo containers, 3 connectors and ion thrusters only.
The batteries can power it for like 1 or 2 hours, but it also has a few reactors on top.

It is set up with the Path Auto Miner script, which is incredibly convenient and easy to use, but totally optional. This ship works perfectly fine with scripts turned off.

If you build this in a survival world, I painted all blocks that you should grind down after building bright red for convenience. It comes shipped with uranium and some supplies like guns and oxygen/hydrogen bottles.

Something like this should work: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1963731309&searchtext=miner

can you point me in the direction of a good lunar miner?
Major Jon  [author] 4 May, 2020 @ 12:06pm 
Technically yes, practically no. The thrusters are just too weak. I'd probably go for a hydro powered ship on the moon, ion thrusters are just too weak for that in general.

does this work on the moon?

This is beyond cool, i hadn't messed with PAM before I checked this out. As always your design is, in my eyes, perfect. This ship is fun to use and fun to look at.
