Automatic Deep Core Mining Rig Zeta-11C

Description
This is Nuklear6's Deep core mining rig.

Xbox version of the mod can be found here:

I created a BP that just ports the drill bit as well as the rig for survival building. Some setup is required in the timer blocks and control console.

All setup videos have been deleted by twitch for some reason, so until I can recreate them I would recommend loading the BP into a creative world with the paste function and see how I built it.

Ad Hoc Video for setup. Minor detour mid video but there is a little more info at the end.

For those having problems with the drill bit not moving, ensure the setting "Unsupported Stations" is turned off. This setting, being on, prevents the bit from turning into a ship and moving.

Give me a minute to fire it up and I can setup a short stream to go over it with you.

I've honestly been avoiding it. It took me over 12 hours to sort this thing from the original design and I'm not relishing the idea of doing it all over again... but the method to connect them uses connectors that will be slightly off center of each-other to align the pistons properly. I'll go take a Screenshot of the design at least. The settings for the pistons should be the same as the original model.

I'm having zero success on working out how to connect the projected drill rig (nice work by the way!) with trying to get it to connect to the top piston/projector/connector rig. I don't seem to be able to place the pistons in an order that connects this top most part with the bottom of the assembly.
Any chance you've had time at re-recording teh video?

I will have to rerecord the setup video. Until that is complete, feel free to ask questions as I may have to toy with it to make sure I have each step correct.

Initially, it would appear twitch has removed all my videos...

Lovely. Give me a few, setting up 2 computers atm.

Just to let you know, your setup videos seem to be down on twitch!

No worries. It shows up if I search using Edge but it doesn't if I use the in game browser. I'm pretty sure it's because it's only a beta and not the full version as it's not saving anything I sub to and the DLC doesn't show up. The other problem could be that we can use experimental mode so no tensor sharing or whatever it's called. I'm hoping someone has an automatic mining design that only uses one piston but I'm not sure if that's possible. One piston is stable but two or more causes it to drill down instead of flat once the drills get heavy. I like building underground or inside mountains so I do a lot of drilling and anything that makes it easier is better than nothing.

Well, just let me know if there are any issues. I get a notification every time someone posts in here so I should reply within a few days, at the most. Unless I'm buried in an RPG, then people may not hear from me for a month, ask my wife lol :P

Can't find it listed. Will try again after full release.
