@Yuki Hanabi well DAS script is a bit outdated. I don’t know if it is still working or not. You can disable it and tune the wheels manually. Sorry for the inconvenience. I’m glad that you like the design!

It seems to not want to climb any hills with full cargo, crawling up at 1 m/s is a bit of a pain. is this due to the script limiting wheel power? visually it looks like the back wheels are grinding against eachother as well, dont know if that has a real effect on the driving or not. I do love the design though!

@D.Simmons, thanks! You can add some vertical thrusters -- atmospheric or ion -- to force it down to the ground. DAS script will handle them well.

the kamba a great vehicle, but im having issues with it bucking the back end up when the terrain changes any known way to fix it?

@ratheden, thank you for your kind words! True joy was to find the Driver Assisting System by Wanderer_308, so all the credit for smooth driving goes to him ))

And while I'm away you can try to modify this Kamba a bit to dock the flying vessels with bottom connector. At least this could be a temporary solution. There are two conveyor junctions one on top of another behind the Kamba's rear connector. So if you remove some armor from the top you can place there a top facing connector with some expansion if needed. It won't be pretty though...

Bottom Connector, and another miner with a side connector, none with a top. The Cargo Kamba is a true joy to drive, Thanks for the work you put into making it.

@ratheden, thank you! I guess I could do that. But in a few days or a week maybe. I'm going away today and don't know how soon I'd come back. Still, do you have rear or bottom connector placement on your miner?

These are just plain awesome.
Any chance you could make a flatbed one out of the cargo model? I would love to have this as a hauler for my atmospheric miner. and as a flatbed, I could modify the flatbed part to suit the needs of the moment..


Again, AWESOME job, these are just great

@AlexB240303, great idea! And thanks! I'm glad you like this little family ;)

I'm currently making an unofficial kamba mobile base. Its on a large grid with the big 5x5 wheels. things gonna be massive. it will allow all of the kamba family to be driven up underneath it, and the base will pick them up and dock them on its underside. I think itll be cool when it's finished and ill post the link here. Mad props to you man-- these things are awesome!

@Téssa, glad that you like it! Great idea about ice harvesting! ;)

Put two arms with one drill, both sides. Reduce strengh of Wheels. Turn on drills. Drive smooth on a ice lake. Done! No more Ice problems! I Loved this design! A lot of cargo space. Drive assistant. And What That reverse sound? Beep Beep Beep! I Loved it all! Thanks for sharing! Build it in Survival. Nice and easy.

@Your Honor, as I said in the description "This ATV is using scripts and programming blocks
So don't forget to enable Experimental Mode in the game."

You need to have the DAS script running

Looks so nice, but it doesn't climb hills at all. Even small ones are struggle.

@Destiny930, wow! Thanks! It's great! It looks like you've got Driver Assisting System script disabled though...
