You could put the gyros on a group and adjust the power on them based on the current cargo load. I like how the ship has turned out. Love to see it in action.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate, really appreciate it 😎👍

@kahvozeinsfang6953 Год назад

If you only need six gyros you can always turn the power down to 75% on all of them. That way you can still keep it symmetrical and only have the power of six gyros.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

This is exactly what I'm gonna do, thankyou for the suggestion mate 😎✌️

@MorbinNecrim86 Год назад

One super cool looking miner!! And functional.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate, really appreciate it 😎✌️

@Nevir202 Год назад

Neat thing about having a survival kit on the ship, is you could cue up something like 100k stone to be refined to ingots, that way any of it that gets picked up as you mine other stuff will be getting processed, (albeit very slowly) reducing your weight and volume of stored materials.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Not a bad idea if I may say so!! I think I'm just going to install ejectors though, because I am over mining stone 😅😂😂

@CyberKeith Год назад

I think the MEXPEX Heavy Mining Drill mod would work well with the design of your mining ship. The modded drill is expensive in mats cost and weight, but it helps reduce drill spamming.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Interesting looking mod that one! When I post it onto the workshop you can give it a test, it does look like the 15x15 small grid drill would fit nicely too and it would look pretty cool as well 😎👌

@randomexplosion6527 Год назад

Have you thought about using a rotor-hinge gimbal for the vertical miner, so you can drill yourself an extra wide hole and make sure you'll easily be able to get out EDIT: that would make it a fair bit easier (assuming no clang-related disasters) to safely widen your hole and target a different bit of the ore patch. without risking slamming your cockpit/batteries into the wall or worse having a hydrogen tank go off (i don't remember where you put them in the ship) I've had a lot of fun watching the series so far, thank you so much!

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

That's a very interesting idea! I'm gonna be honest, I'm not sure if I would be able to pull something like that off 😅😂. After using it in Episode 13 it seems to be able to handle being at quite an angle so I can drill down diagonally if I need to, I was concerned it wouldn't have the side thrust to do it but it actually works quite well 😊. Thanks for the kinds words mate, I'm glad you enjoy the series, it is my absolute pleasure! 😎✌️

Makes a very nice miner with everything except....defensive weapons.

@beardonmyback3833 Год назад

Awesome build 👏👏👏 great episode

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks buddy!! 😎✌️

@maleficentia8390 Год назад

so when you aded those extra drills you could have gotten the same drill radius by simply placing a central drill and then conveyored drills in each corner for a total of 5 drills and that would have made a hole bigger than your ship. Think 5 but as dots on a dice and that would have been enough.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I was avoiding putting a drill in the middle so that I could place the camera and the LCD 😎✌️Oh and also the drills themselves have a decent cargo capacity, so it kinda works in my favour having more drills 😊

@brentbarr498 Год назад

40:45 Trust me when I say you're SPOT ON!! You deliver a MASTER CLASS in ship building every time you build! I've been playing SE thousands of hours and I always learn something when watching you or make me think about a doing things differently than I normally do.. I love it!!! Please keep doing what you're doing!!!

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks so much man, that means a lot! I'm always trying to find that perfect balance of content 😎✌️

@DrssaFerri Год назад

Great Ship!!!! Amazing Job!

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate!! 😎👌

@PChal015 Год назад

Шикарно! Все топ! Мне понравилось! Продолжай в том же духе!

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate, really appreciate it! 😎👌. I'll have her on the workshop soon 😎

@fellysmarts4576 Год назад

I often build large grid vertical miners in this configuration. I find it the most efficient way to mine ores fast, even in early game. One thing I have found useful when mining verticaly is a button to switch the gyros to override. I find this the best way to mine very clean holes, with little chance of colissions with the sides of the mine.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks for the tip mate! Really appreciate it 😎

@WilliamDevoogd-ch8rw Год назад

You can turn your Gyros down, to soften there response. Ship looks the part for sure. Watched and Liked 👍

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate, really appreciate it! 😎. I must admit I am digging the design, pun intended 😂

@patrikhjorth3291 Год назад

Do you think you have enough drills, or do you need to add more? ;-) Looking good so far! I think I would have built the parts around the lateral thrusters a bit more "skeletal", since I prefer that look on a utility craft, but that doesn't mean this looks bad in any way. The survival kit is probably a good idea, and not just because of the respawn capability. It can let you do a bit of simple refining on the fly, which may come in handy. Maybe you could put some of those integrated light blocks _behind_ some beam blocks? I think they should shine through. You will very likely want at least some lights around the craft, for when you're mining in dark and tight places. As for colours, something I like to see on utility vehicles is yellow accents. A piece of yellow "roll bar" or some struts makes it look more authentic, or whatever you want to call it. It might clash with the gray digi-camo, but not necessarily in a bad way.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah your right, the refining may come in handy one day, although I am veeeeeery tempted to replace it with an oxygen tank 🤔. Yeah I think I'm going to add some of those lights in a similar position so those thrusters 😊 I agree, yellow would suit this build nicely! I think I am going to forego the army camo on this build and do it all out of battered armor for that more industrial look 😊

@Cr4sHOv3rRiD3 Год назад

Today, I've just watched all the series from the beginning all from Ep.1 till Ep.12 o.O I kind-a stop watching from episode 3 i think, I was working abroad and just got home few days ago :D I like the miner design, it's kind-a slick looking like a worm :D Also, me personally prefer the conveyor caps but in this case the stripes looks much more to the ship design and caps are not much visible as the stripes. One tip though: All I have learn during my time spent on this game (over 5K hours, like 3K on my current account and 2K+ on old one which is hacked back in 2017) is just this 3 things in general: Never spare parts, Never save resources, go BIG Anyway, keep up great channel and great content, I look forward for next episode and some Moon mining Sorry for my mistakes in grammar, English is not my native language.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thanks mate, really appreciate the support!! 😎👌. Yeah I think I also prefer the caps myself 😎

@PeterFletcherDNADeliverer Год назад

liking the design buddy...

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Thankyou sir! 😎✌️

@nuvi5480 Год назад

Consider using a few ion thrusters, you've got enough battery for it.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

I am definitely considering it! The fuel tanks aren't lasting as long as I'd like so it would help a little 😎👍

@andrewmurray2062 Год назад

Haven't watch the rest of the episodes yet but would the industrial cockpit not fit better facing out make it easier to pilot

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah kind of, but it doesn't not have a conveyor port on the front like the vanilla one does so that's why I chose to use that one as the plumbing is a bit easier 😎✌️

@Nevir202 Год назад

For leveling, couldn't you use the AI blocks with an AI that does nothing but level you relative to planet gravity? turn it on to level it out, turn off do drill. OR even automate that part too, and just have it turn itself off when the cargo is full?

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Hmmm, very interesting, I wasn't aware that was even possible haha. Man I really need to check out this AI stuff!!

@christovisser233 Год назад

See if you can colour the caps in stripes.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

This!!! Thanks dude! 😎👌

@lloydharrelson4805 Год назад

hey how about an oxygen tank instead of survival kit they both have same ports and I would go with the caps on the ports something I was looking at on the new thrusters on the side at top how about turning them into ejectors just redo the piping an you can get a sorter for them But it's looking good Sir.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah honestly I think I will replace the Survival kit with an oxygen tank as I now have a medical bay on the Prometheus 😎. Yeah I could change those to ejectors but I wanted it to have a reasonable amount of side thrust so i can drill at a decent angle without it sinking 😁👌

@ShadowlessNevermore Год назад

will this mining ship be on the workshop and will this work on high grav planets or just on the moon?

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah it definitely will be, unfortunately it does not work on planets other than moons 😔. But I do plan to make a planetary version out of the same ship and make it run on atmospheric thrusters and batteries 😎👌

@ShadowlessNevermore Год назад

@@TheGarageGamer86 cool i look forward to the planetary one as well then

@KolyanKolyanitch Год назад

I place whole cockpit between drills, and you are afraid that camera is too much XD

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

😜

@beardonmyback3833 Год назад

Do you have a plan for Cargo drones to travel back and forth between the miner and the base?

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I would like to experiment with some drones at some stage, I think the fuel tanks on the vertical miner are too small for me to be able to fill it more than once without a re-fuel 😔. I am tempted to install another tank to be honest, but I will see how it goes with the rear thrusters disabled as they were burning a lot of my fuel I think 😅😂

@sniperaaron Год назад

Can't you use AI to always align the ship to gravity? Then just turn the AI block off when you don't need to be aligned to gravity.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

I'm honestly not sure 😅 I have yet to even check out the new AI blocks, but if you can set gravity alignment then I will be checking this out! 😎👌

@sniperaaron Год назад

Not sure my self, but I do know the AI flight controller has a function for gravity aliment.

@MorbinNecrim86 Год назад

If you like the caps better then go with that, it looks cleaner, though the stripes isnt a bad look either

@randomexplosion6527 Год назад

First :)

@KemPeck1701 Год назад

ore detector? did you put an ore detector on the miner?

@WilliamDevoogd-ch8rw Год назад

😕good point😂😂

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Ahhhh, nah not in this episode, but next one I did haha 😅

@adivrsity Год назад

Its good I am not the only pedantic one with ship design LOL

@Locomotor1979 11 месяцев назад

place them infront off your cockpit since you got a block space left over in there for 6off those panels so you can have 1 for your power 1 for your hydrogen meter and in the middle your artifical horizon and you can also use isy's inventory script so you can see what you have in your cargo and you yout 2 free seetrough panels to decide what else you whanna see from your cockpit

@TheGarageGamer86 10 месяцев назад

Oh you mean LCD's, I was trying to figure out what you meant for a while haha. I usually just go by the weight of the ship to judge how much cargo I have, I kinda fill it all up once and then use that number to know when it is full of ore 😁👌

@Imbasnap Год назад

Wonder if it's ideal to just make a vertical Miner then have cargo pods that attach/detach to offload the cargo seperate from the miner. To make it easier to mine and pilot both cargo vessel and miner.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Potentially yeah, I think once I get used to driving this thing it should be OK using it the way it is now. The only issue I could foresee with cargo pods is you have to attach/detach them as well so you may as well just use a connector :)

@matthewwagner47 Год назад

Should turn your cockpit around so you can fly the drill the space. Then upright the drill and use your cameras.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I have mixed feeling about the orientation of the cockpit 🤔. They really need to add a cockpit that rotates or something haha. I think there is a modded on like that though 😎👌

@marcusw86 Год назад

You you be designing a new ship to replace the atlas? Or maybe build some A.I drones to automate your base?

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I mean kind of, the ship I have in mind is the Anubis but it is more of a warship that cannot land on planets 😎👌. I definitely want to investigate the AI drones more though, havent had the time to check it out 😅

@ceberoushayes3827 Год назад

If u move it out u can add that beam block

@aussiemedic3842 Год назад

The caps are the best approach thanks for the series I am getting closer I hope all is great your end

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I agree, it tends to be the consensus as well 😁👌. Hopefully get this thing on the workshop tonight 😎. Not gonna lie, the last few months have been challenging but things are turning around and RU-vid has been doing great during that time so I'm happy 😁👌

@ceberoushayes3827 Год назад

O2 tank on back then a connector off of that

@ceberoushayes3827 Год назад

Trying 2 build this miner in large grid is proving not easy

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Funnily enough I was thinking about doing the same at a later stage! Which part of it was giving you trouble?

@MightyAssa Год назад

Caps and yellow stripes in the row where the side thrusters are

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

Yeah I was thinking about painting a stripe all the way up the side where the thrusters go, great minds think alike! 😎👍

@paigelore Год назад

Put a large display in front of the miners cockpit instead of girders and feed the front camera to it

@patrikhjorth3291 Год назад

As far as I know, you can't feed a camera to a display. I believe they tried it, but the rendering killed the frame rate, or something like that.

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

I'm not sure if you can still do that these days, I remember talk about a mod that could do it but it was eventually abandoned, would be nice though hey!! 😎👍

@accuserofthebrethren302 Год назад

Why is your energy getting low so quick?

@TheGarageGamer86 Год назад

In space you use a lot of energy keeping yourself warm because it's absolute zero 😉👌. At least that is the reason I think it goes so fast, as it seems to last a bit longer on a planet.

@muhammadhuzaifah2107 Год назад

Expecting more mining, exploration, some fight, expanding base. But only buildings ship without mining montage. If you posted every day or 2 days i can accept. But too long and not enough content.
