Space Engineers Survival (Episode 23) - Welcome to Space! [2024] 

Any Asteroid base should be called the coffee bean.

Finally some episodes in space! :D You could setup a script that stops the srills if the tanks are above 90% and start them beneath 30% or something like this. :3

Instead of docking the Pride tail first (main thruster toward the asteroid), it may be easier to dock by flipping her on her side (pylon towards the asteroid).

Finding Ore is a slog in space, sure you can retrofit a large detector on the ship, but take a look at the radio spectrometer script, it’s super handy. You toss a pb on, an lcd, and detector in the direction unobtrusive (which you already have) point your ship toward a rock in the far off distance, and read the graph. The graph gives you an idea of what is in the rock.

1:07 missed opportunity for “Barista’s Pride”

Andrew keeps saying "ice" instead of "iron" so the space base should be called "The Ice Latte"

For someone that did all that right-click mining on your main base you seem to do a lot of searching for ice 😜 Those four asteroids would look great if you linked them together with a cross-piece with a base in the middle.

You should put a big reactor on the Sandstorm. Also, since you have small mining ships [one of them is already on the Sandstorm] you can go crazy mining there on your uranium asteroid.

All caught up, now i need to wait like a common pleb. xD

4:00 I recommend repla I g the straight conveyors on the side of the cockpit to small 1x1x1 cargo containers, they can hold alot of components

I believe Expresso pride had autocannons below its lights on the front sticking out. Would be nice to see those fitted again. Also the areas you filled in with armor plating could of had several small hydrogen cans added for redundancy. Armor plating over that may make it look too bulky tho?

Idk why, but each times you go into the hangar on the wall of the giant hanger, I imagine that every "section" of wall similar to where the small hanger is could be ANOTHER secret small hangar. And the one you got open in the wall you could close it with pistons and the usual black block to make it completely invisble. Anw, my brain is weird.

@andrewmangaming , Maybe create a program block and button to tell the drills to stop when % full is reached, and a secondary button to stop the drills and pistons as well.

Resourcenodes mod allows you to get ores and ice without removing any voxels wich means maybe infinite ores

Hey Andrew, I love the videos so much that I decided to get the game myself. I was wondering if you had any tips for a new player. Keep up the great work man

Are you able to create a shuttle service to take supplies between the asteroids and the base like you have set up with the PAM.

I have aweful luck with uranium and finding ice in space. [watches farther into the video] Oh damn found both....

had to switch accounts to watch sadly but otherwise great video, and great series so far! cant wait for more to come!

13:38 I recommend turni9ff the large hydrogen thruster, and maybe large ions for asteroid review, that way you don't burn through hydrogen for short bursts, as well as grouping your backward thrusters so you can coast

Connect the solar towers with connectors to the tunnel so that the grid isnt collossal

I love your videos

Have you given thought to a PAM ship that can automatically get you new Uranium from space down to the planet?

I’ve always found the ore detector range painfully low on small ships, I typically use the world settings mod to increase the range multiplier to 3x

Yeah, you're really gonna want to make a full-scale Refinery in space for the uranium- the unmodified yield of Uranium ore is *1%* by weight.

16:35 Are you quoting Supertramp? :D

It would be nice to see the Sandstorm get repaired

why dont you hollow out the asteroid and make it a full blown base with hangars inside and patrolling defence drones around the perimeter

I just got this game on ps4, and i can not read the tiny text to play it. Do you know of any setting that would increase ui font size?

Sun shading on that second asteroid looked like the female reproductive system. 😂 "Ah, yes... the notorious Uterus System."

So waste full with the uranium.

Bro I got idea make base ship ( I don't know what its called but I'm okay) when you want explore a planet or anything to make sure you don't want lose lot of time you can build it on medium or small size that can help you have little base can help you survive it got solar panels a big refinery me bay and these stuff And pine this because I want other guys give add they idea to this

If it's just a patch of ice then solar, if it's alot hydrogen engine
