SAP - Space Miner

Simple and Practical - Space Miner that is survival ready, cheap to build and perfect as the first mining ship you would build in a survival game.

Description:

Building a miner that is functional and good looking is probably one of the biggest challenges in this game. After years of playing space engineers this is currently the latest and best that I have come up with it.
This is my personal miner. There are many like it, but this one is mine ;) I kept this one extremely simple in design and only gave it two special features.

Feature 1: Stone dump
- Press X in the cockpit action group to active stone dump, this will then start to eject stone or whatever else you whitelist in the sorter in the back of the ship

Feature 2: Cargo Full (overload prevention)
- When the cargo container is full, a scripted mechanic will automatically turn off drills and change the lcd screen infront of the cockpit.
- IMPORTANT: This is calibrated for realistic inventory settings, to switch it off, power down the programable block in CTRL+2 action group 8.

Note: You can turn this feature off and fully fill drills, cockpit, connectors and whatnot with ore, however filling compartments in addition to the cargo container will make the ship very slow. It will still fly, but very slowly.
Additionally, you can also add connectors on the rear or top of the ship if you wish for it to have more docking ports (or turrets).

If you enjoy this ship, leave a comment and a like :) Fly safe!
