Mephit - Exploration Rover

Description
=TGS Mephit Exploration Rover=

Lore:
The "Mephit" is Tesseracts' first entry into the rover market.

It was built to function and keep its occupants alive even on the most hostile planets.
With onboard Oxygen Tank, H2/02 Generator, Hydrogen Tanks+engines, and Survival Kit , this Rover
can sustain itself.

A small scout drone also makes it easy to check for optimal routes and threats from range.
(15 minute flight time)

Thanks to it's low center of Gravity, "DAS script", and jump thrusters, It can traverse most terrain effortlessly.

The Mephits' turret holds hostile creatures and engineers at bay, while being low profile enough to make storage in a garage easier.




Important Info

The Rover can function without script, but you'll have to manually adjust the tire settings to your preferences.

The Hydrogen Engines are enough to Drive, but the script limits the power for the wheels if the battery isn't available.

This Rover has been updated to include "Jump Thrusters" and better conveyoring for large items.
The Old version can be found HERE

Due to the rovers height, you'll have to lower the suspension by holding "X" to lock with
a large grid connector. > Do not release "X" before locking, as the rover will jump otherwise. <

Aside from the cutout for the screen on the right, the rear connector is connected to it through a medium cargo container to allow item transfer.

Hello. I an really wanting to use this rover, but for the life of me, I can not find access to the Survival Kit. I have checked the top and all 4 sides. I did not check the underside, as to me, that would be silly. LOL. Could you offer a little insight as to where you have the access port placed. Thanks. :)

Sorry, i never saw your message. The instructions are written inside the cab. It'll only show up in remote access once disconnected.
