Description
Bots friendly, traitor friendly.
I would appreciate for the feedback and if you notify me about strange or broken things, thankee.

Light Deep Diver for 5-8 people with an unarmed scouting drone.
The main feature is that the submarine runs only on batteries.
Also has an overpowered but very voracious reactor which is only needed to "refill" the batteries.
The reactor has a lever for switching the filling mode: In active mode, the entire boat will be turned off, but the reactor will be able to charge the batteries.
The submarine needs upgrades. Pumps upgrade because the anti-flood system relies mainly on ballast. Reducing power consumption will add some comfort.

There is a "Start" button in the captain's navigation terminal, it switches the light and power for the engine, oxygen, crafting, but all pumps continue to work and the submarine can hold position (and fight).
Note: highly recommended to keep the ballast hatches and the front shaft open to drain the water.

In total, 8 batteries have a capacity of 32000 and a maximum output of 4000. The reactor also has the same output of 32000 and can eat a thorium rod in a minute, just a full tank.

Component consumption:
- Main lighting 300 (emergency 0).
- Engine 1500.
- Oxygen generator a total of 1100 (all racks and tanks connected).
- Default value for fabricators and deconstructors, 500 each.
- 2 large ballast pumps consume 300 with a force of 400, and 2 reinforced small pumps in the bilge on the upper deck (2 round compartments) consume 150 with a force of 200.
- The rest of the small components consume 5-50 each.

Drone Dolphin:
- Unarmed, has loot containers and a 360 degree spotlight.
- Has a battery capacity of 1000 with a maximum output of 200, which is enough for ~7 minutes.
- The battery will charge while the drone is docked and turned on.
The drone spotlight is active (consumption 75) even when the drone is docked, so It will be good to turn it off after charging to save energy.
- Due to technical limitations it's invulnerable, although has a hitbox.


Well, I hope it will be as interesting as it looks, so enjoy! Cheers

It's fine, it's just that there are always noticeable inconveniences in my designs, pros and cons.

That's unfortunate, I hope I haven't offended you with it, just a few suggestions from someone found himself playing the sub heavily

It turns off quickly because it has a minimum charge, and the pump works because, due to my mistake, it did not require energy.
I'll upload a patch, give the drone a full charge and fix the pump.

In order for the drone to start charging, you need to turn it on while it is docked.
The charge indicator is a few small lamps in a vertical column, a large horizontal one is an on/off indicator.
Unfortunately, I'm unlikely to change the layout, let it remain as it is. If you really need it, you can change it in the editor.

Yes, absolutely. As you can see on this video the bot is charged and can move up and down allright and it's fully charged, but can't move left or right after the initial 30 seconds or so. Also, I would suggest adding a door from captain's quarters to the cargo and expanding it into cargo a bit, there is quite some unused space behind it that can accomodate a bunk for example for some additional roleplay aspect, as well as adding some invisible lamps on the glass to emulate light shining trough it. Thanks for a great boat.

Its charge indicator is located directly on the terminal, the lamps from red to green.
Maybe it wasn't fully charged?

I have a feeling it's a bit bugged. After some very limited amount of navigating it, like minute or two, not 7, it's stopped reacting to left or right inputs.
Doomich  [author] 10 May, 2023 @ 3:35pm 
@GVLT Nope, the drone can only be recharged while docked and powered on. This is an intentional limitation of its range and duration.
GVLT 10 May, 2023 @ 2:51pm 
Thanks, that's very cool! Can drone be recharged if it's already deployed?

@GVLT
Right, thanks! Added :)

Cool looking sub. Looks like diving racks on top level and oxygen tanks are not powered. it would be cool to have a captain's chair
