Step 8337 don’t die

Moon Power Base # 1

Hi Q T, the pipe line looks good. i would add a few more supports on the horizontal sections also i like cameras. put a top mounted camera on the bottom and just switch from top to bottom as needed . is there a minimum distance between drills? base is looking good. till the next one, bye

Do timelaps.......

There really needs to be some conveyor/pipes that are 45 degree angled to make slope work like this look A LOT cleaner. The closest solution without a MOD/new blocks is to use hinges at the top/bottom of the slope. You indicated 1 welder on the Boxfish was having trouble welding some things.. perhaps now you've figured out where that incomplete conveyor is. When you build the next solar tower, GO BIG! Something like twice as tall as the current one, and 2-3X the solar panels. If you can't see it from space, it isn't big enough (heh). Next phase, O2/H2 Gens and storage tanks for the base so the Sol Strider isn't doing all the work.

hi Q T. nice simple design on your moon base, so farl. lol. congrats on your moon landing. NO EXPLOSIONs. nice. till the next one. bye

The Weldbox has been redeemed. You should do your little 'cheese the daylight' thing from a distance again, to see how far off you are from getting solar non-stop. Is it height alone, or are you just a bit outside the area getting perpetual light? You may want to build an additional solar tower where it does get perpetual light, and then connect it up to the base. Currently, you're supplying the base with O2 from the Sol Strider (unless I missed in the time-lapse where you added an O2/H2 with ice to the base). If that is going to be the main power station for much of the Moon Base Complex, it'll need more batteries, especially because the current solar tower doesn't get perpetual sunlight. There is a way to get the Jump Box to track the sun too, to maximize solar charging vs relying on the reactor 100%. Place at least a seat in the power station, for when "Energy is Low", unless you like having to scramble to one of the ships to recharge.

If you put the keyword "Special" in the name of the cargo box on Box Feesh, Isy's will leave it alone, plus, you can edit the custom text to specify what you want loaded into that cargo container whenever you dock with the Sol Strider or other manufacturing base. Definitely build a second solar tower, but taller. I like the idea of several smaller habitats linked by walkway tubes that follow the terrain - I've yet to do that myself, one of the next challenges I have to attempt.

The space ukranium mine might need a solar back up, just for emergencies like this. And, indeed, the moon base should have a solar farm - keep the ukranium for ships.

oh yah, congrats on your pending prison sentence. lol

nice upgrade on Box Fish. see u at the next one, bye

something loose in the ship? that would be U

aww Q T, where is your big red X for connecting? that is one of the best connecter idea i have used. again, thanks for the idea

yes its me, Clyde. being snowed in, i have been upgrading and changing things on my computer. lol

The down side to updating a build design using a blueprint is, as you experienced here, that sometimes there are internal blocks that get missed. The T-junction sounds like something connecting both welder arms to the main cargo/conveyor line. Without doing a test-weld, (or at least trying to grab items out of the cargo via a welder) you won't know which T-junction to look for. "We redeemed the Boxfish" has yet to be proven. Perhaps we'll find out when next we return... same Tator time, same Tator channel.

sorry about the Box Fish refit. still a good video. thanks for everything

kooz koo ?

black lines look better than plain yellow. not lining up drives me crazy also

John Travolta And Alivia Newton John. fantastic movie

when u talk about Bob, an image of Rodney Dangerfield pops in my head. Get it?

i used to listen to The Shadow broad cast on am radio. . remember im almost 69. lol

i never used neon tubes yet, but those circles gave ne ideas. thanks

Bill Paxton in the original Aliens movie? wow. my brain hurts.

DARN U Q T. i know that phrase. it is stuck in my head. aahhhhhhhhh..

Build a new ship in creative, then print it like you did with the dropship, I tend to fast forward through building until something interesting happens anyway. Glad to hear you sounding better btw.

At least you figured out your small port issue before you started welding something and then sat there baffled why it wasn't fully welding things up. The welders on hinges (on a ship) seems like a useless feature. What were your thoughts as to why you built it that way? During the rebuild, save the armor and greebles until AFTER everything else is connected and working the way you want it. If something needs to be changed, there's far less to remove in order to redesign/re-route.

Road Trip!! Kinda. . . . . Well, the dropship was true to its name, it is a ship and it dropped. Time to upgrade it with the things needed to make it useful. Bear in mind that ores might not spawn within 5000 metres of the surface stations, so be prepared for that.

Hi Q. T. you r sounding better. i like learning the trick with finding the N. and S. poles. i like using the lcd cross better than the auto connecter. yes, drop ship needs some more work, but still works for the basics. just an ongoing process. lol. see yall later

That's what I thought... you Tater people are ALWAYS attracted to the eyes. 😁 I agree, the drop ship needs to be dropped, and start over with a new design. As long as you have the needed resources, H2 thrusters are the way to go as they work everywhere... space and atmosphere. You were burning through your fuel so fast because you had way too many thrusters active for the moon's low gravity. New ship design... a basic box shape would work (call it the DropBox). You just need 1 large H2 tank, 1 large thruster in each direction (maybe 2 for lift), 1 large cargo, ore detector, O2H2 gen, and a survival kit. Once you scout out the best location for sunlight with ore & ice mines close by, set up your solar tower and some batteries. Go back to Sol Strider and load up. Take enough supplies to set up 2 mines (ice & iron), and some sort of a pressurized small starter base. I think there's a way with a custom turret controller, a camera, and the gyros on the Sol Strider, to cause the ship to rotate with the sun so while you're on the moon, it stays charged.

Nice looking Dropship - I don't have a good name for it, so +1 to Chad's suggestion. Hope you evict the Corona soon, and congrats on the acquisition of a better half :)

hope u had a good Thanksgiving despite your Covid. live in the USA. in the state of Ohio, in the farthest N.E. corner. i live about a half mile from Lake Erie.. i went to bed Thursday night , no snow. woke up about 7am Fri morning, 2 feet of snow and it hasnt stopped yet. can u saw ' Hibernation'?. thanks for the video. drop ship is gonna be great. till the next one, chow

lol. u need to lay off the bold medicine if your going to be flying

Hi Q T. yep, thats the one. the other looked like a flop eared bunny. lol

Glad to hear you're starting to feel better. CONGRATS! on the engagement! With you being Quantum TATOR, I'm guessing you knew she was the one because of her EYES ? What in the heck was going on with the H2 thrusters on your miner (on/off/on/off), and the warning of Unsafe Grids (alternating with the Experimental Mode flag) ? (In the voice of Jeff Dunham's Peanut) What did you do? If you use multiple types of thrusters on a ship, just set up the hotbar to turn on/off all of a certain type. In atmo, no problem, turn on all Atmo, turn off all Ion/H2. In space, turn off all Atmo, turn on all Ion or H2. Etc. Watching verious people using Nanobots Build & Repair, that mod confuses me. Originally I thought it welded up closest first. Nope. Then I thought it welded in the order the blocks were placed. (maybe) I also thought it gave priority to local grid first, then sub-grids, and then (with fly mode on) other grids. Nope. I even tried to look it up on the workshop to see if there was documentation about build priorities, but didn't find anything conclusive. Maybe it's just RANDOM? You called the new ship a Drop Ship... but what are you going to drop it from? It's got H2 and Atmo thrusters, so it's "Well Rounded" for flying anywhere. Call it "The Bubble" ? In a way, the new ship is a ship that's planned for going ashore. "Ship to Shore" (aka STS). The other ships used the "Strider" theme, which is a way bugs stay on the water. You "skip" a stone across water to keep it on top. (an alternative to striding) Call it the "STS Skipper" ?

If you put a remote control on the Jump module, you would not even have to leave the Sol Strider to redock. With the moon base idea, instead of making Sol Strider the base, put some merge blocks on it and use it as a base module, then expand around it, that way, if you need to leave for any reason, it is a simple matter of unmerging and lifting off without having to grind new blocks off, and the rest of the base stays where it is for your return.

well, hope u have a nice Thanksgiving and get well. thanks for the ideas. chow

congrats on your first jump. like the idea of a detachable jump drivee. u can use it on other ships. i have not set up one yet. soon

wow. that docking trick is cool. im gonna try it. thanks

Wow! Prison warden? Respect the broom or get the doom!

Hi Q T. sorry to hear u r sick. load up on vitamin C. i think it helps. Goggle it to be safe. y dont u have sorters on the miner? would really help.

Oh Yuck! Covid for Thanksgiving. I feel bad for ya dude. Get well soon. I started building my own 25x25x25 cube out in space in Creative. Holy crap that's a lot of blocks just to fill one side in (5 more to go). I'll make a few blueprints along the way, like when the outer shell is done. (if I lay out all the conveyors to connect H2 thrusters, I don't have to remove them all to switch over to Ion, and other reasons like that) You built a mining ship without forward lighting? Were you expecting to only do daytime mining or something? Docking Target... nice idea. Jump drives sure do come in handy when you have to travel quite a distance between mining outposts. If you go with no Build & Repair next series, that just means more time-lapse/time-skip segments for building anything big. Sol Strider as a Moon Base... 1 benefit would be that you can easily disconnect it from the voxel and convert it back to a working ship if needed, if you leave it as-is. 1 detraction would be, it's not an easy layout to expand if you want more refineries or whatever. Any expansions would either go with you or would have to be chopped off (if you convert back to a ship for some reason). When you say "Frigate", are you meaning a heavy combat ship, or a cargo ship that can defend itself pretty well?

If I had powers I would be a vigilante who keeps the valuable stuff i find on the bad guys.

sorry. just my opinion

Hi Q T. i have not watched any of your videos i didnt enjoy. UNTILL NOW. i have noy done a bluprint in a while but damm. u have me so confused. i need a drink and lay down with a cool, wet cloth on my forehead. pleaser. no more

How not to project a blueprint: Start by repeatedly not making a blueprint of what you just built. Got it. So the "point of origin" is always the first block built in the grid. That helps explain why some people like to start with a connector (or sometimes a merge block) as the first block built in a ship/drone grid. If that first block gets deleted/removed and then a new blueprint is made of the grid, then does the 'point of origin' get transferred to the 2nd block built? I haven't yet used blueprints, but if I ever do, at least I'll have a better grasp on what to do if the projection alignment comes out a bit wonky.

Ooooh! Cow Helmet. Winning! Nice little _Ukranium_ mine up and going with refinery, should keep looking coz that one deposit will not go far. Also, might be worth checking out that MTCG beacon, find out if they have anything you can use or profit from, and it is only 18km away.

Don't forget about a nifty block called the SORTER, to prevent the mining outpost refinery from grabbing docked ship ore inventory. Moon base, or Asteroid base... up to you. I was just pointing out last episode, one of the advantages of building it on the moon.

_Ukranium!!_ w00t! On the subject of mining depots, maybe if you create several small common modules that can fit together different ways would be useful, rather than one big design that will only really be optimal for one depot. The fuel depot base looks really good. The Hunt was long, tedious, annoying, but ultimately successful, well done!

hi Q T. enjoyed the video as always. on my hot bar , i have my 3 stipe welder, i have my 1 stripe grinder on 1, i have my 3 stripe drill on 3, my light armor blocks on 4 and i put my 3 stripe grinder on 5. so if im welding something and booboo. i just hit 2. now if i have a big job grinding i go to 5. works for me.. also, if u have another earthlike planet u can go to, try Earthlike Animals mod. it is hillarius. till next time, bye
