Updated and fixed!

give it more battery power
Mashed 11 Jan @ 11:56pm 
looks like the generator really struggles to produce the energy required for the 2 motors that run the drills. batteries go flat within seconds of activation of the drill resulting in the shaft rps dropping to 0.5 or so and therefore slow mining. great creation but needs more juice and there's no tow hitch for a generator trailer even though there's a eboost button (if equiped) is this still to come?

can you please fix the drills shutting off after 10 seconds of mineing
Karen 16 Aug, 2024 @ 1:46pm 
also the speed will change depending on physics speed i think, you can check physics speed with f1

@MrNerf2632
you could prob change it pretty easily by adding motors
MrNerf2632 13 Aug, 2024 @ 12:09pm 
Forgot to mention it moves faster in multiplayer but still pretty slow so please fix this. I think that's everything I could find in terms of improvements to current design.
MrNerf2632 13 Aug, 2024 @ 12:03pm 
I say that because it only rotates the drill at a decent speed for a short period before slowing down to one ore every 2 or 3 seconds which is quite slow so please fix this!
MrNerf2632 12 Aug, 2024 @ 2:48pm 
Wouldn't mind if you made the drills slightly faster because they are pretty slow right now... Overall a great vehicle though!

Nice new truck to add to your collection! Love your work and am eagerly awaiting your next mining vehicle as well as your upcoming heavy truck.
