Flexible Connectors Tubes (Blueprint Link)

Description
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1986115735
I had to rebuild the connector from scratch and make a blueprint.



Two flexible tentacles that are capable of transmitting cargo/power when locked. A Station shipyard now has the ability to weld/grind in awkward places without needing to pilot the ship being worked on.


Included:
-A "Fancy" and "Plain" versions of the same tube, they are functionally the same.
-A copy/pastable version of each tube link. All that's needed is a small connector at each end, and something to power the end.
-Connector Workships at the end of each tube. Button 3 locks the arm into position.

Rotors hold connectors within range of eachother, and are locked with a single toggle command (Button 3) from the Welder/Grinder ship at the end.

Oh that's an idea.

You could try AdvRotor>Hinge>Hinge90>Piston and repeat. That would at least be compact, and the rotors and pistons could be set and locked into specific positions by script.

Yeah I have that mod already :) I was more thinking something that can expand. I really liked the transport mod via antennas but it was discontinued :/

Hey Spacedout, you can sortof do this with the conveyor hinge mod. Just alternate the rotation of the hinges 90deg every hinge, and it will be about as flexible and far easier to construct.

To bad there isn't flexible tubes in the game or a mod for it. As far as I know.

@CatMan, it would probably work fine, though the large ships' smaller relative tolerances would be far less flexible for something made of the same amount of blocks.

My first thought upon seeing the design is "what if it were a large ship instead". I don't completely understand it mechanically, but i would like to see the giant death worm if it were possible.
