Description
MULES.MK3 (Respawn Replacement)

** This will replace the standard respawn pod when loaded for all atmospheric planets **

Trailer only shown in images as an example (blueprint can be found below).

- No mods
- Some DLC
- Script Optional (AutoLCD)

- Includes solar & hydrogen power generation
- All the usual onboard respawn modules
- A plumbed in hinge for connecting trailers
- Daily Needs support with starting items
- On board batteries last a long time in most environments
- Very sturdy and versatile

The main different between Mules MK3 and MK2 is the removal of the custom trailer script (plus the programmable block paired with an LCD).

This has been replaced with a single Timer Block to manage trailer operations making the build more server friendly and overall lighter on PCU. A few other design changes have been made but are all visual besides moving from a Rotor to Hinge hook for potential trailers.

As before, I don't make trailer blueprints but provide a guide via the following link which includes the Mules.MK3 rover with a bare bones trailer attached (Page 2 buttons 8 & 9 to attach/detach).

Feel free to upload any trailer creations linking back to the MK3.
