sadly this one has now become inert after a update that caused clang, it cannot fly

ok then and thanks for share your work ;)

@josemaripl Thanks ! Nope, I'm done with SE, 650 hours was enough :)

This ship look awesome, i liked test it before it gets obsolete :( Any intention of update it?
Thanks for your work!

Okay mate, I found that but could not find a control station anywhere but if it is obsolete then no probs

@Bolisaris There's an entry to the interior on the backside. But this is obsolete anyway.

Cannot figure out how to use this, how do you get it to the asteroid in the first place as there is no cockpit to control it?

how do i make it work?

so... the projector isn't showing the actual drilling part of this ship. that may be an issue

Nah. First I'm lazy, and second I shouldn't spam the workshop with a piece of ship. There are already enough people uploading crap made in 5 minutes so let's just not add more. The easy way is to just spawn the ship, cut it, and make a blueprint from the head, if you really want to have it.

i dont blame anything. Can you make a bs for head part ?

Blame the SE developpers for making a projector that is only capable of projecting one ship piece !

hi
i build this ship but there is no drill head in projector. I build rest of them completly.it is useless for me now.

There's a good chance that it still works since it's very basic, there is no scripting and no mods involved. Just try :)

Know StarCore said he isn't working on this any more does anyone know if this still works (even manually) as would relay suit the server i'm currently playing on. And also will it work in survival anyone who has used this info would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thanks. I have other games tio play right now. Maybe I'll come back to SE later.

Awe man. You should still play asteroids thats what im doing. I wanna play planets but just to much lag. Id love to see more of your creations! Didnt mean to revive a dead post but i saw you on youtube and was impressed

@BoogeyMan Nope. Not playing SE since my PC can't run planets.

StarCore are you still making these?

@Wonsu Before Planet update, weight wasn't calculated for ships. Now it is. That's why.

can you make a BP of just the head part also?

Can someone tell me why in my world this ship drill rly rly slow ? did he use mod ?

Did you get your inspiration for this by looking at a TBM Tunneling Boar?

i like it but it has 1 big flaw, if i want to use this in survival, and use the blueprint, and stockpile everyting in my big base, i will be bussy for hours and hours manually transfering all the ore since there is no automatic way currently build into this ship,

i think if you make a bp for the back half and have one for the front half and use 2 projectors then line them up could that work

@pchalic1000 - The projectors only project to a certain point. Parts of the ship that are only "connected" to the ship - like with rotors - are not projected.
The head is only connected by rotors - therefore no projection.

I don't know, I never tried that.

when i put the blueprint in the projector it only projects the back half is there a fix for it

A Connector to transfer the stuff to another ship would be awesome ... but still a pretty good drill.

I cant get it to work.. :( I got it in my list but cant place... doesnt come up

Which timer group am i supposed to activate? 3 or 4 on the toolbar?

Awesome design! Too many Drill Heads and Thrusters for my server so I am going to disect one and see if I can cut down the size a bit. Thanks for posting!!!!!

That's alright then, don't worry about it. :)

Nice ship by the way. I'm digging it! (Bahaha, couldn't resist!) ;)

@ Tiger313 I'm not sure what yo're talking about :)

The mind boggles... StarCore from Planetside "Trouble!" outfit?

I think if you want the Auto-Repair welders to work, they have to be on a diffrent ship grid.

Try attaching them via connectors, rotors or pistons.

@ rayymondas The idea between the clocked thrusters was not to push at all during a moment to leave some time to the head to drill without forcing on it, and only turn them back on once a full disc has been drilled. :) As someone said a sensor could have done that too, even more accurately.

I love the functional and compact design being used here, and its actually doable in survival after a few hours if one focuses on this once their basics are up and going. As a note, a very skilled pilot may not need the auto thrust system, as they could find a sweet spot in forward speed to match the drilling speed with the dampeners turned off to let it go adrift and save on energy consumption.

But better to keep it in for noob friendliness, as people like me who crash things alot might need it for precision drilling.

Breching Steins is a good idea^^

Net schlecht. Die Timerblock-Idee funzte auch auf unserem MP schon gut, falls da Löcher im Bohrweg waren.

@Bigred2989 Yeah ! I don't like using mods, except for skyboxes or things like that.

All default parts?

@Bean A sensor on the front, as suggested somewhere, would do the trick :)

I will see if I can get it to stop after going through an asteroid. If I succeed, I'll let you know what I did.

ok

@Bean lol

@TheKillerVII Well all you have to do is position it towards any asteroid, approach that asteroid as close as possible, start the drills and start the timer block that handles the forward thrust. The work is done alone, without any other action excpect for this small initialization part. Ho and of course you have to stop it once it gets through the asteroid. Automatic stop is not handled yet.

can you make it fully automated... so you press one button and the rest will be done automaticly??

LMAO!

StarCore? Hello? [cdn.meme.am]

Dude i'm not watching this page every minute of the day. Calm down... Yes you can pilot it.

Very nice.
