Thats why i built a dropship tho:steamhappy:

It's a very good design Frogboy, well done. The only thing it need is bottom thrusters to go up in my opinion.
frogboy1320  [author] 4 May, 2018 @ 2:37pm 
Yeah the small set of wheels is to protect the large wheel mounts from hitting random pieces of whatever you are currently climbing over. Which I felt was highly necessary for such a large Rover.
The small wheels on the inside have stiff suspension compared to the outside ones and are powered to keep momentum up even after the sides might be up off the ground. On placing the wheels I didn't have any trouble with that due to the width of the fame.
The front nose and tail Wheels are there to keep it from dragging due to its length while entering steep climbs and deep ravines.:steamhappy:
VelxraTV 2 May, 2018 @ 8:51pm 
I love this thing. How did you get the small wheels on the inside to work? I thought that was amazing and solves so many random explosions there.
frogboy1320  [author] 3 Mar, 2018 @ 6:50pm 
I recommend sending to rovers bridge for the best range. turn on the probes antenna, find the remote control of the probe you want to click control and enjoy.
Aries 3 Mar, 2018 @ 6:21pm 
love the design, mind giving tips on how to use the probes, so confused lol

How do you spawn it
CTH2004 26 Feb, 2018 @ 6:51pm 
Yup!:steamhappy:
frogboy1320  [author] 26 Feb, 2018 @ 5:54pm 
Indeed.:steamhappy:
CTH2004 26 Feb, 2018 @ 4:45pm 
OK!

Guess I'll have to wait:steamsad:

Ah Well, I'll know imideatly when it comes out!:steamhappy:
frogboy1320  [author] 24 Feb, 2018 @ 1:22pm 
It takes me a bit of time to research and develop a build, So if there is going to be one it's going to be a while. Especially if it's a first for me.:steamhappy:
CTH2004 24 Feb, 2018 @ 8:55am 
Thanks!

And no problem!

Ok, I mean the miner in the hanger!
Can't wait for a dropship!
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 7:32pm 
Also that elevator you spoke of I found a way to add it.
Enjoy.:steamhappy:
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 6:56pm 
Thank you for pointing me to the guide, I will be using this as a good reference to prevent any future problems.
The miner ship you speak of being used to shuttle which is this?
This dropship you ask about there is a reasonable possibility I will give a dropship a try.:steamhappy:
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 6:21pm 
You may want to try This Guide:)

It's a guide on how to update items!

P.S. You aren't the only one with updating items proplems! I asked someone, and They used this guide. Now, I'm giving it to you!
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 6:16pm 
Your welcome! I can always use the miner ship as a shuttle.. or remember hydrogen:steamhappy:

Also, is a large dropship planned?
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 6:00pm 
Unfortunately an elevator would be quite difficult with this setup of Wheels and on the thrusters it's not built to fly back to space on its own. If you want to go to another planet it would require the use of a large Dropship to carry it to another planet.
On the topic of the scripts I will look into that.

I appreciate your feedback.:steamhappy:
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 5:59pm 
For the drones, I would recomend using This Script

Also, I would recomend having an elevator at the entrance!

However, these are just thoughts! Can't wait for what's next!

(P.S. I would recomend using Issy's Inventory Manager Script. It's in the collection thats in the script above, so i didn't link it:steamhappy:)

I also would like having enough thrusters that it can get back to space:) And a Few manuvering thrusters!

Thanks
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 5:09pm 
Will do.
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 5:09pm 
Ok! Thanks. I pressed P to unlock the wheels, and... That makes sense! Besides that, It's Awsome! I just need to trigger the parking break alternitivly!

P.S. You should have a warning up there. Just so other people know what Happens!

Thanks!:steamhappy:
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 4:08pm 
If you did push p to relese the parking brake then yes it was the ships
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 4:07pm 
did you push p?
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 4:06pm 
It's great, excpet that when I start moving, something something in it explodse. I think clang is watching me...


I suspect the ships, but I can't tell you. It was exploded...
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 3:54pm 
Thanks!
frogboy1320  [author] 23 Feb, 2018 @ 2:54pm 
I'm glad to hear you like it's looks, When you give it a try I hope it does what you need it to.:steamhappy:
CTH2004 23 Feb, 2018 @ 1:10pm 
Looks Awsome! Can't wait to try it!
frogboy1320  [author] 22 Feb, 2018 @ 11:09pm 
I'm glad you like it it took me a long time to build, and I had a very hard time trying to figure out a name for this thing. Being called a rover I agree it doesn't describe it properly.
THUNDERCOMPUTER 22 Feb, 2018 @ 10:36pm 
Pffffffffffffffft! When I was thinking rover, my mind conjured nothing like this glorious monstrosity! Here and my dinky 3X3 small ship wheels :P Good job man.
