Description
So, the good sir Nuclear__Narwhal suggested a minelayer refit of the Luna's Flare, but since a minelayer of this size is pretty illogical, i built a minelayer mechanism, around which the rest of the ship was built.

The mechanism does everything for you: just point the ship into the direction where you want to have the mines, and trigger the minelayer timer_1, and the ship will print some mines, go forward, stop, repeat. Of course you can always interrupt this process. To store all those components, the ship is outfitted with a large cargo, and a refinery and a assembler for mine production, even if the supply line is cut.

Have fun with it (Hint: do not stare at the mines, or they will explode you)

if the mechanism only prints mergeblocks, reset it's ownership

Oh hey! This is the Raider Encounter! I love that ship, that's my absolute favorite capture! Very good design and layout to her.

very cool ship :steamhappy:
How did you make the flashing, half-destroyed spotlights at
the bottom of the ship ?

Seems like it might be some kind of generalized bug. I attacked an NPC cargo ship with warheads onboard that are normally booby traps to blow the ship. Nothing happened however. I'm wondering if they've screwed it up so that all warhead spawn in the "disarmed" state.

Ya, I dropped a fair number of mines and then turned around and plowed through the group and nothing happened other than minor collisions. Then I hopped out and shot one with the rifle and nothing.

Examined the mines and found the "armed" box wasn't checked. Checked a couple, drove back through the field and then they blew up.

they explode on contact, or at least they used to when this was built

Merge blocks seem to be working again...but the mines are produced in an unarmed state. So they don't go boom :(
