I also added a small reactor exposed so that you can get the little energy you need for conveyors to work, in case somehow it energy is entirely depleted.

Other than that, if this ship was printed, one or more conveyors are probably damaged or not finished.
Rodrigo  [author] 25 Jan @ 1:55pm 
I'lll check it out, but since forever, the entire ship entirely conected. *BUT* a ship without ANY power left wont let you transfer uranium to the reactors..... as coveryors are *dead*
Prairie_Dog 25 Jan @ 8:56am 
For some reason, i cannot access reactors through the conveyor system. Any Help would be much appreciated as I've been troubleshooting for about an hour and a half now.

alright sounds good to me, no rush just take your time.
Rodrigo  [author] 1 Nov, 2023 @ 11:28am 
I've been away from SE for some time now after a few KSH decisions, but a large grid version might happen, yea.
xXShadowNinjaXx 1 Nov, 2023 @ 9:50am 
the ship is amazing it's one of my favorite workshop designs, I just think it would be great to have an mk6 aka large grid mining ship. up to you lol.
Rodrigo  [author] 1 Nov, 2023 @ 8:53am 
Hey there, wasn't planning anymore versions for small grids, unless there's a major change with blocks or power sources. This one was made to be able to handle anything space wise since it also uses hydrogen. You're experiencing any issues with it ?
xXShadowNinjaXx 1 Nov, 2023 @ 8:09am 
When mk6?
Rodrigo  [author] 31 Jul, 2022 @ 5:41am 
tomwatson85 well, the main issue i see are the ion engines, probably everything else is vanilla, so those could be replaced by vanilla and all should be fine
tomwatson85 31 Jul, 2022 @ 5:08am 
i play on a server without that specific DLC if the items from that DLC were removed would it still be viable?
Rodrigo  [author] 28 Jul, 2022 @ 9:34pm 
@raymondsims2 this one is for space and low gravity moons, for earth try this one: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1494338270

can this fly on earth to mine?

@Valdir

Greetings, I might do it in the foreseeable future, however I've been away from the game for a while now as I've been dealing with some personal issues, so i can't make any promises just yet, but I do believe you could convert it to full hydrogen rather easily, the o2 system is already there
Valdir 23 Apr, 2022 @ 12:38pm 
i love it i need a full hydrogen ship for miner can you build your style full hydrogen miner ?
Rodrigo  [author] 12 Dec, 2021 @ 12:18pm 
@hello, to be honest, me too. It's a bit sad to admit that i have distanced myself a bit from the game as it haven't the same grip on me as it did a couple of years ago. But who knows, maybe i'll get back to work
Runezin 12 Dec, 2021 @ 9:22am 
i would love to see a hauler with this theme, or even a large grid support ship that could carry these mining ships
Runezin 9 Dec, 2021 @ 8:43am 
best mining ship i have had the pleasure to fly, really well done, wanna see more off this design
Rodrigo  [author] 6 Dec, 2021 @ 1:45am 
Sorry if i sound outdated but PAM?
stevehl 5 Dec, 2021 @ 7:10pm 
are you going to add PAM to it? or dose to already have it?
Rodrigo  [author] 22 Nov, 2021 @ 6:44am 
Thank you kindly good sir!
BWS ☮ Judgement 🖤 21 Nov, 2021 @ 7:09pm 
I still can't believe how good your builds look and how amazing they perform and everything about them is just perfection..thank you a lot for sharing your work
Rodrigo  [author] 14 Oct, 2021 @ 8:38am 
Lol, thanks mate, I'll see what I can do.
Marcusinfestus 14 Oct, 2021 @ 6:04am 
I saw that. No no, do the world a favor and go into designing real cars. 👍
Rodrigo  [author] 14 Oct, 2021 @ 12:33am 
I actually have a few already released, check my workshop
Marcusinfestus 13 Oct, 2021 @ 4:23pm 
Do you design cars?
Because you should.
army-zone 11 Sep, 2021 @ 1:49pm 
No, problems, thanks.))) Again, I just pointed out to you some possible problem that I encountered while experimenting with your product. This is just information for thought, with the future design of miners or modernization of this, nothing more. I like beautiful and unusual ships, which I definitely test and study. Sometimes I find new interesting solutions or not obvious tricks that I missed or did not know during my own design.
Rodrigo  [author] 11 Sep, 2021 @ 8:37am 
Well, I can only have a theory about what's happening and it is that if you're sending it on it's own voxels don't behave properly, you see, they sort of react to your presence, if you get far from an asteroid the LOD and voxels quality change to improve performance, and that could explain the weird behavior, but since i've never tried a bot, then im not sure what to do about it. Do you have any issues mining by yourself?
army-zone 11 Sep, 2021 @ 5:39am 
Yes, when using a bot, similar problems arise that when a certain amount of damage is accumulated, it drives the miner to the base, and in the presence of nanites, an automatic repair takes place and it turns out that when approximately 20% of the cargo volume is accumulated, it drives the miner to the base. This is not critical for me, I use my bots. Yours just tried, appreciated and found this situation. Which is possible for others in the future, and you note this information.
Rodrigo  [author] 11 Sep, 2021 @ 4:21am 
I think I'd need to check this channel, I might be not getting it but it seems like you are mining with a bot? And for that matter it's coming home with about 20% and is having issues with small voxels hitting the miner?
army-zone 11 Sep, 2021 @ 3:25am 
More than 1000 characters are coming out, so I didn't upload Russian. ) I hope you read my text correctly.
army-zone 11 Sep, 2021 @ 3:19am 
Forgive me, I do not speak spoken English, through a translator, but I will try. The reason is that the rarer borax from above pass, possibly small voxels between themselves and from above. And bumping into them, PAM reacts to damage, when they accumulate a certain number of days of us insignificant, then for him critical, he is a robot, not a person) This is not critical, I just noted this situation and take this into account for the future (modernization) of this machine moment, make them a little more overlapping, mutual zone and make it a little higher. But again, this problem does not exist with drilling diameter mods. I have a driller designed myself, but it is designed for the Prometeus world and is not suitable for vanilla and other mod build. If you watched Daev's stream channel, you saw him on the stream, One of them was presented by me to this streamer) Well, just in case, I'll post the Russian text (original) if there are any inaccuracies in the machine translation.
Rodrigo  [author] 10 Sep, 2021 @ 10:55am 
Hello mate, despite what the name suggests, i do not understand a single thing of russian. But I tried to translate and it seems as though you're having a little bit of trouble with the cockpit clearance? Indeed for clearance the frontmost drill is a bit lower, else it would be literally blocking the view, but i've tested quite extensively and I havent found any issues with edges hitting the cockpit. Could you clarify a bit what you mean with PAM and going back to the dock with 10%/20%?
army-zone 10 Sep, 2021 @ 10:32am 
P.S.: Написал посмотрел на фото спереди и кажется понял причину. Внизу у него стоит больше буров чем сверху и они работают чище перед и под майнером. А сверху возможно остаются небольшие воксели . Думаю причина в этом.
army-zone 10 Sep, 2021 @ 10:26am 
Очень неплохой майнер, но нашел один минус при ванильных бурах (без модов на увеличения радиуса бурения) он время от времени цепляется крышей внутри тоннеля. И если к примеру стоит РАМ, то он регулярно гоняет его до дока и обратно примерно после 10-20 % загрузки.

what F15RegalEagle said man, this miner hella good, love the design!
Rodrigo  [author] 5 Sep, 2021 @ 4:44am 
your words are much appreciated !
F15RegalEagle 4 Sep, 2021 @ 10:37pm 
No comments? Fine I'll be the first; A very fine machine, sir. This Workshop has always been in dire need of miners that utilize large cargo boxes, can fit inside early-game Survival carriers or command ship hangars and look good doing it. Miners that use large boxes are a must for building real capital ships, battle cruisers, carriers, ships that hit around 25k PCU. Anything that can wage real war in the galaxy, Small boxes are simply not gonna cut it. You'd be mining all day and that ain't fun, thats work. Extreme-duty miners make mining fun again
