I am trying to spawn this machine into my Reforged Eden 2 game, but I get this message in my blueprint library: exceeds max number for certain block type or blueprint type disabled by server. I have set the class size to zero in my server settings so anything should go. Any help would be appreciated. I constantly rebuild vanilla or Reforged Eden 1 machines so I am very familiar with the process. I just haven't run across this blockade before. Thank you for such great builds, I think you are a true artist.

@Darber Very good assessment. Would like to add, that if you need a miner to clear asteroids in SV-only combat sites (after baddies have been dealt with), then TBM will fit this role very nicely - for me it normally has enough spare CPU capacity to just stick jump drive behind it temporarily. Then you jump, mine what you need, and then just remove and stash jump drive for later use. Simples.

Perfect. This is so much like Space Engineers. Love it Thanks man

I've used the TBM through multiple playthroughs.

Every time i feel like trying something else....I always come back to this beast.

It's not just a miner, oh no!
"As Is" it will support 3 multitools(i place them directly below the cockpit)

Replace the gats with rails(but leave the turrets!), and you then have a POI buster.

Very well made ship. It handles high gravity, magmacite, POIs(Alien Fortress? lol) and of course mining. Great for getting through the engineer class 5000 block grind!

And we'll have Fun Fun Fun till the Zirex take your T.B.M Awaaaay.

Back in the Game - and I cheat in solo Original EGS - everything spawns!

Although, I play in the Unknown Skies with Chilimeat mostly, so always good to go there.

All the Best to you JRandall.

For those that want to use this SV in vanilla, you need to replace the minigun turrets as they are HV turrets

Hi - I spawned this ship in creative and replaced two of the front gatlin guns with tool turrets and replaced the two side turrets with retractable ones. All of the specs including the weight (except lift going down a couple tons) are the same yet the yaw went from 54 to 36. I can't figure out why. This is the one thing I can't stand when it gets below 50. Any ideas? Would love to use this ship. thanks. Btw, in Reforged Eden and the ship works great in creative as spawned.

I managed to retro-engineer this into vanilla. Not quite as capable, but still a good mining vessel and all around decent SV!

It's no longer compatible and won't work.

Laser Drill level 1 or 2?
While The iperguide is not present?

It really looks amazing. Good work

Made a version with a jump drive, downgraded shield, and no CPU. Had to pull a lot of stuff out of the inside, so its not as fancy in there as it was, and I upgraded it with more storage, but there's room to get to the cockpit. also pulled half the drills off to make it something I could actually spawn with the mats I had laying around. Figured I could add in whatever I needed as I gathered it.

So My team uses this ship. but we removed the mining drills, added Railguns and A-lasers. and we break pretty much any ground base with it. we did have to move the cockpit to the Upper rear though. somehow Snipers can shoot thru shields and headshot you in the front cockpit. Great build we love all your stuff bud.
vik.martinchuk 19 Jul, 2022 @ 7:51am 
This Merc-TBM became my main miner due to almost idea design for multiple purposes.
But I need to mention that the upper drill right above the cockpit doesn`t allow to get off the ship. I always stuck or fall off the ship. Replacing this upper drill with a couple of ones with one free space block between them eliminates this problem.
And inner space without drone hatch has not so much sense IMHO. So I got rid of all design internals and filled the guts with storage blocks, so now I have 32k harvest storage + 32k ammo storage (not just for ammo, but also for general purposes).
After replacing of gatling guns with 2 lasers and 2 railguns I got a perfect "base ripper". Shield allows to come close to almost any base, dig under the base, strip the shield with lasers, destroy several blocks and "voila" – you are in.
So with a few modifications - this miner is an ideal ship for taking over of any structure in the game.
Awesome design, as all of your creations!

Hi, do you have or do you know of any vanilla designs of this?
Or do you have other mining ship blueprints?

Thanks in advance

Thank you Nemi!

Thanks jeff, another awesome Re build cant wait to try it out:)

@DarkAlien, It is for Reforged Eden not vanilla. It has no forbidden parts if you use for Reforged Eden like the post says it's for.

Переделай проект, нету генератора, лишние ЦП расширители, лишние буры, турели для ПС вместо МС.

Thank you Bob-O-Matic! I missed that, but just fixed the post. Thanks for the heads up!

Whoops! "(HV CPU Tier 4, Class 1, Unlock Level 20)" Of course it's a SV. BTW love your builds, use them, mod them & enjoy them. Thanks for all your hard work.

Thank you very much everyone! :)

Nice build:steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup:

Thank you! A very good project. Even on a planet with 4g it can mine ore. The only thing it lacks is a multi-tool for more versatility, and maybe a warp drive. The CPU seems to be enough for it.

nice!

"5. 4 gatling guns, 3 minigun turrets" Yet I clearly see 4 ??
There are four... Lights ! :steamhappy:

Diggin' the design on this one, I've only been playing a short time in Empyrion and I've seen some pretty impressive builds already. Maybe once I get a little more acquainted with the title and learn how to make a few of these ships I'll pitch in on the workshop. Wouldn't mind dabbling in modding the game as well, we'll see tho. Great ship! Can't wait to try this out!

added as friend, i have a bunch of questions on a new project. and my game isnt loading for some reason, so. i guess id just need to ask directly!
jrandall  [author] 29 Apr, 2022 @ 1:33pm 
Thank you very much thetallest, james_deniker, and J_Snipe! @J_Snipe, very cool! I will check the link! And thank you all again!

Great build. There is a thread about it being spawned in vanilla (obviously not working as it has RE exclusive bits). I converted it to see what it would take and listed the changes in the thread here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/383120/discussions/0/3273564019245564629/

I don't have a habit of re-posting other peoples builds so should you decide to make a vanilla version, the info is already researched and list above. And WOW! The extra CPU vanilla allows is amazing. :-)

Have a great day.

Getting ready to spawn her in Mr Randall. Was also using the HGM before but mostly left it parked. Looks like another fantastic addition to the fleet!
thetallest 28 Apr, 2022 @ 12:39pm 
I did make one change The top front and Side turrets I changed into retractable ones. You left room to take out the blocks below to make it so. YOU ROCK !!!
thetallest 28 Apr, 2022 @ 12:22pm 
OMG OMG OMG I LOVE THIS ONE ...... I Went CAVE wild today ...... I had the HGM while I waited for you to complete this one.
You did an awesome job on this one. :steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy:

A beauty ! Again ! Good storage and good placement of the drills
