ModularStorage

Description
Modular self-propelled storage unit (SV) with 2 constructors, 18 letter & color coded (for easy team communication) cargo boxes, 3 fridges, 3 o2 tanks, 1 o2 refill unit and a bunch of fuel tanks to not have to worry about the constructors running out of juice.

This will allow you to use 2 CV blocks of volume to have a constantly producing fuel or other base material machine, to not block your precious and huge (2x2x2 CV block) sized advanced constructor for menial tasks. It will also store all your ammo so you can fly out with much more than fits into however many ammo boxes you have in your ship. If you have a dedicated player to act as loader from time to time, you can easily get 10 - 20x the deployment time out of your vehicle. Plus you can easily salvage it from an disabled ship. It is not armored to stay within the 2x1 confinement and can easily be parked though a 1 block sized opening in your ship.

Feel free to slap on some armor on it once you have parked, you will be happy that you did once your CV blows up (or the people that killed you will, depending how quickly you come to loot, heh).

I designed it to easily fit into my Pocket Assault Carrier ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=797935785 ), a very very compact, armed and survivable warp capable CV with medic and respawn station. I did not want to make it excessively bigger to house a Advanced constructor (altho you can fit one in place of a warp coil if you tend to hang out in one system for longer and need more complex stuff build without a local BA) This will create all the fuel and ammo all while the CV is on the go, or even deactivated to save fuel when or when landed or hidden.

Remember that you can still add modules to this after you have placed it inside the PAC. I added some more constructors on the sides and a gangway on top of mine. This shields the containers from a stray hit if the door ever get pierced or you while you jump in while under fire.

hey there, I'm very interested in incorporating this into my builds. Could you please upodate it for 5.x large cargo crates? :)
I don't want to open a rivaling blueprint, I'd rather refer to yours.
