CRANK THE JAM
I want to sail into a bigger ship, grapple on an get yanked away behind it firing as I slow it, real it into a grinder, or a bomb, something like that. lol.

How Do I get the world to load? I would like to check it out, but I can't get it to load.

Jukduelight 4 Aug, 2018 @ 9:24am

if i can get the world to work with the authers perm i could make a blue print

Big Diddy Cheeseburger 11 Jun, 2018 @ 5:09pm

yeah because the world is glitched

Bone 1 Mar, 2018 @ 1:22pm

make a blueprint vesion plz aswell with your other greppling hook ship thx

Tal'Raziid 8 Feb, 2018 @ 11:28am

Hey, could this be made smaller, to be a man-portable grapple?

AzureAssaulter 22 Jul, 2016 @ 9:41am

also is this large or small grid block

AzureAssaulter 13 Jul, 2016 @ 11:00am

and how do you pull in and can you make a mod version and make less steps

Alex Blues! Pesquisando O.V.N.I. 23 Apr, 2016 @ 3:25pm

Wow! Nice! I will take a look (Brasil)

ceebee 4 Apr, 2016 @ 12:48am

I may use a similar concept for a WIP mech.

MK84 [author] 5 Dec, 2015 @ 2:10am

Because this was created a long time ago before mod/blueprint support was introduced to the game.

Lord 4 Dec, 2015 @ 6:19pm

This looks amazing, but is there a reason this is a 'world' and not a mod/blueprint? What we need to be able to do (for building in gravity, i.e. planetary) is build cranes, gantries, lifts, tugs, and so on so we can move stuff around, re-attach (merge) things, or dock without being in control. See KAS mod for Kerbal Space Program. :p

Xenon 22 Mar, 2015 @ 10:34am

is it a world o blueprint

Warcry4007 20 Jan, 2015 @ 5:07am

nvm

Warcry4007 20 Jan, 2015 @ 5:03am

it will not show up on the mod list for me

Panda 4 Nov, 2014 @ 3:21pm

Spaceleviathan 1 Nov, 2014 @ 12:04pm

Thanks @MK84

"Get over here!"

MK84 [author] 7 Sep, 2014 @ 6:01am

@The Abyss, a standalone version? Hmm it's doable. I'll add it to my list of things to do.

Spaceleviathan 2 Sep, 2014 @ 2:23pm

anyway you could build a grappling hook module. Something the community could paste in or copy building into their ships? Tried to carve one out of this but keep destroying it when implementing

Eclipse Tech 13 Aug, 2014 @ 4:48pm

You could build a version of this on a station so it can hook passing ships.

Irony Man 17 Jul, 2014 @ 9:13am

Okay. Thanks.

MK84 [author] 17 Jul, 2014 @ 7:57am

Yeap you certainly could build a single. Reason I went with dual hooks is for load-balancing. Single hooks tend to have a harder time winching in very big ships.

Irony Man 17 Jul, 2014 @ 7:44am

I meant just one hook, one chain, one spool. After taking a closer look at some of your pictures, it looks like it works pretty well.

MK84 [author] 16 Jul, 2014 @ 10:39am

You could join several spool together into one winch ie run two or more lines on one winch. The only issue you might run into is whether or not the large rotor can provide enough torque to turn it.

Irony Man 16 Jul, 2014 @ 9:42am

Okay. I was thinking about making a pirate/salvager version. Does it work with only one hook?

MK84 [author] 16 Jul, 2014 @ 3:15am

It still has the same winch speed limitation of the Mk.1, up to 2 m/s. You could go faster if the mass of the ship you're winching is lighter, ie the cargo ships.

Irony Man 15 Jul, 2014 @ 10:05am

Is the retrieval any faster than mk.1?

Irony Man 15 Jul, 2014 @ 10:03am

This, I think, is by far the best thing on the workshop. At least, in my opinion.

cripto130 15 Jul, 2014 @ 7:38am

thanks

MK84 [author] 13 Jul, 2014 @ 1:06am

Turn on the group "Winch (Both)"

cripto130 11 Jul, 2014 @ 8:05pm

how do i reel it in?

MK84 [author] 6 Jul, 2014 @ 10:13pm

LoL everyone keep telling me that. I must watch that show one day.

Rigante 6 Jul, 2014 @ 4:55pm

Nice design & that last image really reminds me of Outlaw Star!

GH | Fastmadcow 6 Jul, 2014 @ 3:54pm

Wow... Thats ever better than the first one you made great work :3

nobu 5 Jul, 2014 @ 9:11pm

it worked with other addons MK84, and it sometimes happened on other addons but ill try again

Soullesswaffle 5 Jul, 2014 @ 5:21pm

Awesome, but impractical. [tvtropes.org] I hope something like this makes it into the actual game as a weapon.

MK84 [author] 5 Jul, 2014 @ 9:28am

>oG Ξxphiser919, try again. Maybe Steam Workshop was down at the time.

=7Cav=SSG.Broström.A | Evul 5 Jul, 2014 @ 7:06am

This one is cool!

nobu 5 Jul, 2014 @ 5:43am

pls help does not work when i click copy and load it starts to load and the loading thing disappears and its on the workshop menu

MONROE 4 Jul, 2014 @ 5:33pm

Cool Ship, i dont get what peopole are saying about it being offensive @sbrabra groping has nothing to do with rape, troll comment is obvious troll

OWT_wales 4 Jul, 2014 @ 4:08pm

+ 1

MK84 [author] 4 Jul, 2014 @ 6:21am

I did. At that speed the rotor on the grappler arms rarely survive.

There are three ways to increase speed and acceleration for this setup.
1. Additonal Mass block.
2. Additional gravity generators.
3. Reduced braking torque on the winch.

Any adjustments made to the first 2 would require finetuning of number 3.
