This is my favorite early game miner! I started using the Idris, but it just seemed to little. Love the designs and the extra reactors for emergencies. This thing is a workhorse and holds a lovely amount of ore. I use this all the time! Love that it is easily able to start on planet and hop to space once you figure out how, of course.

@Amumu the reason you are "all over" is you activated "cruise mode" which is first row #3. This is basically a drift mode with no brakes.

The damage readout is upside down so if you update, this is the only problem I've found besides the front side lights wont build with a projector at all. (I just flipped the orientation of the lcd to match the damaged sides, etc.)

I don't know if this will be answered HOWEVER, the timer block is always missing 7, 8, & 9. What are they supposed to be?

Heyo Makrat :) I enjoyed this miner for a long time now and I'm about to do a refit of multiple ships. I can't see anything in the description regarding reuploads. Ofc the refit will link to this blueprint and you're stated as the original creator. May I humbly ask for your permission?

TOP small miner!
Leonidas 25 Sep, 2022 @ 12:35am 
Ello again DerMakrat, I'm here asking about this ship and how long it can fly in atmosphere got any answers for that?
Domaorn 1 Aug, 2022 @ 1:05pm 
um... if i build this on a serve how? if i project it high enough.. can a wield ship reach ever part of it? i need my miner lol
Toogit 23 Jul, 2022 @ 11:32am 
I built the ship from the blueprint, but I noticed some of the hotbar entries are missing. Is there a list of what it should be aside from the cockpit LCD?
Domaorn 8 Jul, 2022 @ 4:43am 
i did notice the -LCD-? on top of the craft can fall into it preventing the projector to work sometimes but other than that its my goto ship. does this come with a build and repair? if not where would you toss one on? back connector?

is this classed as a LG ingame?

Hello Jailbroken, thank you for your comment, sorry for the late reply. is pitching (front back) or rolling (right or left)? there could be a problem with the sript or the set flight path. recompile the script and reset the flight path. make sure no blocks are damaged. are scripts enabled in you world ?
Jailbroken 20 Dec, 2021 @ 4:49pm 
This ship goes upside down when I use PAM to tell it to return to job site. Anyone else seeing this?
DerMakrat  [author] 19 Dec, 2021 @ 5:23am 
Hello Sojolly, thanks for your question. sorry for the late reply. did you experience any further problems after you identifyed the Problem ?
DerMakrat  [author] 19 Dec, 2021 @ 5:22am 
Hello cyberwolfent. i just tested it in survival to make sure it works properly. I did not experience any drift. it could be that your craft was damaged and debri(scrap Metal) glitched into the Blocks. maybe you can aske a admin to delet and respawn the craft or try spawning small object by drilling rock without collecting it near the Miner. a some point the scrap should despawn. Let me know if that helps
DerMakrat  [author] 19 Dec, 2021 @ 5:16am 
Hello Slatex, about the Reactors. they are not connected on purpose. The ship runs on Batteries and the reactors are there to kickstart the Ship when the batteries are empty. they can be accesed dirctly from the front and back without using the conveyor system, sinze the dont work without power.
cyberwolfent 3 Dec, 2021 @ 1:50pm 
BTW, I did check to make sure all of my UP thrusters are on and working.
cyberwolfent 3 Dec, 2021 @ 1:47pm 
I just noticed that Even completely empty, the ship loses altitude if you thrust in either the X or Y plane. I no it didn't do that before the Industrial update. Did game dynamics change somehow to drain other thrusters to supply the ones needing the demand. Also, I lose altitude quickly when I have any sort of load in the cargo modules. That was never an issue in the past.

But I love the ship overall. Fantastic Ground to space workhorse.
Slatex 6 Oct, 2021 @ 6:13pm 
idk why the reactor dont have convyor attached on survival mode :/
Sojolly 3 Sep, 2021 @ 3:13pm 
It turns out i have a conflicting mod (not sure which yet) that interferes with the default gatling gun, hence causing the problem.
Sojolly 31 Aug, 2021 @ 9:22am 
For some reason, this and the Atlas are spawning in without the a couple of small conveyors between one side (either upper or lower) and the rest of the ship. To fix just put a small conveyor in the space. It also gives me a message that some blocks are not present (ship may split) blah blah. Thought this didnt use mods.

I made a large grid circular one the other day with nine drills pretty nice
DerMakrat  [author] 24 Apr, 2021 @ 4:27pm 
Hello thank you for your questions. about the h2 draining. maybe a Hydrogen generator was activ while you where gone or a other hydrogen tank was set to stockpile. about large grid mining ships yes they are on my roadmap :)
Batmans2ndCousin 13 Apr, 2021 @ 12:06am 
Love the build , but have you thought of trying to build a large grid miner?
Brisingr 7 Apr, 2021 @ 1:21pm 
Love the miner, just one question - probably a noob thing, but I set the tanks to stockpile and start filling them, and if I leave the game when I come back I have to start all over again as if it's draining otu somehow. Thrusters are off. Thank you!
Andobtw 20 Feb, 2021 @ 7:17pm 
Have you considered making a large grid mining ship?

Hello Trik, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., and Needler thank you for your comments and sorry for the Late reply.
I just now noticed your comments. @Trik thank you for your intuition on the time spend. it took quiet a while to build the isaac and the entire series of Mining ships. Glad you like it :) let me know if i can help. @Needler sorry to here about your issue. I will chek to make sure there are nowrong thrust overrides set. thanks for the notification. it could be that the PAM script had taken controll of the craft or had a bug. it will set the override to the thrusters to fly. hoep it didi not show up again. @S.T.A.L.K.E.R. glad to hear that you have succesfully welded the ship in Survival. i allways need to take a dep breath befor disconnecting a ship for the first time. so much that could go wrong. glad it worked :) hoep you have fun.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 9 Feb, 2021 @ 1:07pm 
I welded the ship in survival using a ship printer on the earth planet. All blocks printed except for the two interior lights on the sides near the cockpit. I suspects it's because of the angled block it's mounted on. Swapped out the angled block for different block and was able to weld the lights. Loaded ice in the O2/H2 generators and waited for a few minutes and at about 20% H2 took it for a test flight. All good my side. Thanks again for sharing. :steamhappy:
Needler 7 Feb, 2021 @ 7:25pm 
Apparently some of the thrusters came preoverloaded? I'm not sure if this was my doing or what but that was my issue...
Needler 7 Feb, 2021 @ 7:17pm 
I can't for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong. I built this in survival with a blueprint and the ship flies weird... It won't stop going upward it's almost like the hydro engines on the sides and tops arn't working? the rear ones definitely will work and I have cruise control off and I don't have the rear thrusters stuck open.. I'm so confused on what I'm doing wrong I really love this design and would love to take it to the roids! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 7 Feb, 2021 @ 12:00pm 
Hi DerMakrat, thanks for sharing this design. I spawned Isaac in my save game to try it out before actually attempting to weld it in survival. What an awesome ship and lots of power. It handles very steep angles at full load without any issues. Heavy on hydrogen but that is not a problem since I have a huge stockpile just waiting to get burned. Will definitely be acquiring this ship for my venture. Keep up the great work mate. :steamthumbsup:
Trik 28 Jan, 2021 @ 12:44pm 
I not going to guess how many hours was spend to disigne this ship, and attention to ascetics and functional details is epic.
Massive thanks to the author for sharing this beautiful creation
DerMakrat  [author] 10 Jan, 2021 @ 1:22am 
im sure you can do it :)
Dinosaurboy10 9 Jan, 2021 @ 3:10pm 
Ok will do once I get all the resources down, this is the first blueprint ship I have built
DerMakrat  [author] 9 Jan, 2021 @ 3:04pm 
no DLC needed :) just ad a LCD like the Text Panel Block. and add the text PAM to its name. Go to the programmable block with PAM in the title and click recompile.
Dinosaurboy10 9 Jan, 2021 @ 9:49am 
Awesome, and wait, I need the DLC to use the PAM script?
DerMakrat  [author] 7 Jan, 2021 @ 6:50am 
a lot of people dont. should still be functionla the standart LCD (Text Panel) does not need DLC :)
Dinosaurboy10 7 Jan, 2021 @ 6:01am 
I dont run any DLC's
DerMakrat  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 11:44pm 
Hey Dinosaurboy10 that LCD on the back is a Transparent LCD. do you have the decorativ Block DLC? if not it cant be welded by you. But not to worry the craft is fully functional without it. To use the PAM Script you will need to build a LCD. There are to smal armor blocks left and right of the Cockpit. build a LCD titeled Text Panel on them and add the text [PAM] to the name of the Block. PAM Should be loaded after that and it can be Used with the buttons 3,4 and 5 on hotbar 4
Dinosaurboy10 6 Jan, 2021 @ 3:48pm 
On the back of the ship. there is a display screen on the middle of the back face, correct?
That display screen will not let me weld or do anything regarding it, I know it is a looks thing, but still, think u should know
DerMakrat  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 3:16pm 
realy what do you refering to ?
Dinosaurboy10 6 Jan, 2021 @ 11:56am 
There is also a possibility that the asteroids are just much larger and further away than they appear. Also, this ship as what appears to be a glitched block on it
DerMakrat  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 10:09am 
thats strange. they are stationary like planets and moons. dont know why they apere to be moving to you. keep a eye on your m/s when you aproach maybe the ship is breaking. to disable breaking with my blueprint hit 3 on hobar 1 to disable and enable breaking.
Dinosaurboy10 6 Jan, 2021 @ 8:02am 
The only things I get from the workshop are ship blueprints, but the asteroids dont normally move? When I approach one it feels like it is moving at the same rate I am moving towards it
DerMakrat  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 8:02am 
Hey Usuallly all voxel tarain is stationary. Should be no Problem seting a rout from earth to space and back. :)
DerMakrat  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 7:45am 
0o the astroids are moving ? are you plaing with mod ?
Dinosaurboy10 6 Jan, 2021 @ 6:30am 
How would it work with space mining because the asteroids are always moving
DerMakrat  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 9:30am 
sure PAM is a little script by Keks. basicly works like this. You fly the path one and set a mining Area. The ship will fill its cargo containers fly back unload its cargo and return to the mining are on the set path. He made a Guide viedo on how to use it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ne_i5U2Y8Fk the relevant bit starts at 1:12 Step 2 Mining. the Controlls for the script are on hotbar 4
