Hey guys ! Second ship from me ! :)
This one is a large asteroid drill made of two parts : the head that contains the drills and the body that contains everything else, including lots of containers.
What makes this drill special is that the drills are separated from the storage containers by a rotor but they can still be connected to them using connectors.
The head of the drill contains two large containers used as a ore buffer. Once they are all full, the pilot has to pause the drill head, wait for it to align with the body thanks to the magnetism of the connectors, lock these connectors, empty the ore buffer into the main storage, unlock and start drilling again.
The ship is totally usable in survival mode since every necessary parts are connected to one another and the amount of drills and blocks is reasonable and realistic.
it's maybe not the design that will give you the more ore / minute but at least it make slick holes !
Hope you like it ! Comments are appreciated ! :D - Розваги
Ba Sing Se will fall.
That connector design is pretty damn clever.
I'll have to keep this design in mind when I build my deployable planet core driller
That is a very smart drill head...
I've been playing this game as long as you have and this is pure nostalgia
An extremely realistic and highly inventive design. High amounts of creativity and ingenuity are required for such amazing creations so kudos to the creator.
that ship has sharp teeth, good work. i have just got the game and with only 7 hours in game i can only dream of building something like that.
what you have here good sir is a bona fide TBM tunnel boring machine. well done. large scale mining operations will never be the same.
I've always loved tunnel bores! This is a work of art!
Idk about anyone else but this was wayyyy too satisfying lol
Found it in wrokshop!!!
"Asteroid Drill - Steinbrecher [no mods]"
That's what your looking for.
6 people who disliked don't like "slick holes". Awesome build man, well done
friggin awesome, like the big tunnel borers
wow, amazing idea about using connector like that
currently making a scaled down version in my survival with a friend. this is so cool.
It looks like a 12v car socket.
Really cool!
this ship only works for destroying asteroids using the right click function if you want this for mining ore you're out of luck I made a exact copy of this ship and it does not work in survival for ore mining still a cool concept though
Of all the mining ships i have seen this is the most realistic looking. Great work mate.
Wow, as far as mining ships go, I have not seen a more efficient one. Well done.
Now that's well made drill well done well done
Impressive, I was hoping you'd show off the spoils though...
What if you drilled a massive hole into an asteroid, then created a tube shaped base to secure inside the hole with landing gears.
In vanilla you can't operate with asteroids this way. You have to put a block into asteroid and than use any type of intersection.
Holy ship! That is awesome
That's incredible.
by far one of the best mining ships to date, and fast too
impressive design and very well thought out idea !
That's a very ingenious design, by far the best i ever seen, and it mimics a tunnel-borer machine.
One flaw however: no way to transfer stuff OFF the ship to your refinery, no connectors.
this is absolutely genius.
Ngl, this thing is pretty damn impressive...
the new advanced spinning bits that can connect to connectors means the head can transport to the body while spinning now.
Amazing, much more efficient than the flat mining matrixes some people make, unless this one is used in "god-mode" and the ship is unbreakable.
Incredible, look at that perfect smooth cylinder.
WOAH. That's pure awesomeness!
Real nice ship man. I was thinking about a planet drill too, but your ship is way better than my tries ;)
Mount one of these things onto a large ship and you can turn any sizeable asteroid into a well-camouflaged and well-protected base in a matter of minutes.
few recommendations to improve this a little bit
1 put thrusters in back to override so they keep speed around 1-2m/s and hotkey them on off so you can quickly stop them if something goes wrong
2 max out gyroscope override. this will make it so even if you move mouse as fast as you can the ship will not spin around. it can still move up down left right forward and back but not in any other way.
Holding down the right mouse equipped with Drill destroys the rocks instead of collecting them.
This is insanely cool, nice job
Best mining ship, so far. Very impressive.
This ship is amazing, can you please upload it to the steam worshop?
dear God it's beautiful, might use something similar once I get this game on pc
that is way to fucking cool, you could even use leftover wholes at deep bases inside the asteroid with a wicked ass tunnel leading it. dude, i must know how u made this!
***** Thanks. This ship is obsolete since the andvanced rotor came out. You can find an updated model on the workshop if you're interested (steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=331552338&searchtext=steinbrecher), but it's not working very well though. I may create a new version for the arrival of panels, maybe.
hmm, when i get a rig capable of playing without dreadful fps, ill look into it. computers aint cheap lol
***** Grinders would work better, plus you could salvage a whole base worth of materials.
Star Core Neat ship man. now that they have the advanced toolbars, you should set a hotkey for the engines to idle at about 10-15kn, that way you don't have to throttle the thrust like that. It should auto through the asteroid (or planet). If you get a bunch of shifting while its on auto, turn off tool shake, or slap a bunch of gyroscopes on it.
way easier to do with adv rotor now, great idea with connectors
What this machine reminds me of is Tunnel Boring Machine used to make subway's and tunnels in mountains for trains and automobiles. Incredible. Well built.
Thats what i thought too when i saw it, I was thinking "Space freeway tunneling machine"
i was thinking the same thing once i saw the face of the drill head
Vanewolf29 yeah it's called a mole. Pretty amazing
cooles design, macht schöne runde löcher! :D
really fun to watch these videos like this... lol it makes me laugh to see its effectiveness
This video used amaze, it was very effective!
I`m in love. Just started with that game, but I look at ppl projects and feel awesome :)
Fantastic ship, love it!
This is amazing
Love it! That's a well-made miner!
You, Sir, have way more patience in building than I, Lol, amazing creation!
Wow dude amazing work!!!
*Nice, like a Worm*
Masterpiece
That is a beast
holy shit that was fast. break setting huh, pretty cool.
Damn that is one sick build. Very nice. Just played it a few hours so i hope i will be able to build something similar :)
That's AWESOME :0
good job dude I just got the game and I want to be able to make stuff like that I mean you hollowed out an entire asteroid in seconds takes me more like 20 minutes XD and that's with the top grade stuff xD
wow this would be cool for the planet update also reminds me of the film the core or core
+setogod ]-[ That movie screwed with me so bad when I was a kid... Someone should rebuild that drill from "The Core" and see how well it actually works. (Might need a need front end though)
Schön gemacht
Even with new materials coming out I can see this miner that would half to take a lot of updates for it to go out of service
incredibly effective...
that was awesome, great job man!
interesting design; you could have used the grouping feature to make it easier to empty things, but overall, nice proof of concept.
"Steinbrecher" ^^ Classic German Engineering seen! Nice Job Landsmann
I built this in survival. I have made some modifications. I put collectors in the front and a sphere grav gen in the drill. I have 1 large reactor and it is more then enough power. I have 4 large cargo containers in the drill and 4 more in the hull. I also put in 4 refineries. As soon as i stop the drill and lock the connectors the refineries pull from the head and refine. A couple things I have had though. The leading ramps on the drill head keep getting destroyed as well as the occasional drill. It also does not mine anywhere near as fast as this one appears to. It has a habbit of drifting to one side. Maybe I need more gyros.
So far i haven´t seen a better ship!! It´s absolutely amazing and looks very realistic to me...reminds me of Machines drilling to Zion :D (or rather O.o)
Oh man that music is so bloody familiar =D
Coolest and most efficient miner i've seen yet, definitly deserves a like.Edit: Are you german? Greetings from Austria anyway. ;)
That's like the monster of TBM's :P Hopefully one day i get that good as i only just started playing this the other day. Hoping to build a TBM type driller just not as big.
I have no idea what TBM means but good luck :)
TBM is short for Tunnel Boring Machine. It's kinda the industry name for a mining machine that bores tunnels of all sizes for laying sewer, water, gas pipes or for making subway, railway or other underground transportation tunnels.
And I add a note : How to take all materials send on space by drilling? If you think about that, with just one drilling, you can kill your near station and all people with meteorite rain. Look your drilling from outside your ship when you see your drill eat the asteroid to understand.
this is just insane!! :-D thanks dude
Very effective but just one big problem : Reactors inside the ship? The same with reactors outside will be more realistic. It is a good ship. I work about the same kind to drill asteroid and fill cargos with materials.
Yeah I'm not a fan of internal reactors either, but there isn't any other place on the outside where I could have put them. As long as there is enough space between the thruster and a block in front of it, the thruster doesn't damage anything, so it's acceptable.
This is kick ass
Hmm, how well would it work against large ships?
gerpar250 Depends whether they are made of stone :)
Star Core *Cough cough* I think you mean...
Depends on whether they are made of stone ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
gerpar250 Attach grinders.
We must have a planet sized one of these, or at least a moon sized one.

Well this one is already making the game laggy, so let alone a bigger one. SE has some serious performance issues, especially with mining. And now that planets are out, it's putting computers on their knees. Mine has 8 gigs of RAM and can run most recent games with high settings, and yet I can't run SE smoothly.
incredible!
Think of the combat capabilities ramming a capital class with this. You would need a lot more thrusters though.
GLORIOUS!!!!
Great job! :D
id like to see someone do this to a planet
Amazing!
I never seen barely of the picture that drill will drill through I want to see it
Mind blowing....
Nicely Made! :D
There are advanced rotors now that have a conveyor belt in them.
really good work :)
You Guys Are Fucking Genius!!
Just wow!
drill planet!!!
That thing is horrific. You could mine the moon with that xD
It's loooks like a worm!
Wunderbar komerad!
Impressive.
asteroid destroyer :) free iron for all
thats coolest thing i ever saw is it on workshop?
I'm speechless
You could use this to hollow out a huge asteroid and build your base inside.
+MakoRuu You know what I like about bases in asteroids? If you are the attacker, you can mine your way into their base and kill them all.
A big enough asteroid would provide adequate defense, I imagine.
+MakoRuu What if they have a medium sized transport vehicle with mining capabilities. They could drill into the enemy's stronghold and attack from there. Classic tactic used by star wars droids and Warhammer 40k Orks. Inspiration is everywhere.
Plus with the new tool tier system you could arm those infiltrators with elite weapons and makeshift bombs.
extra armour plating?
maybe get rid of a couple of containers to loose weight for more engine effect, or just to counter the weight of the extra armor. also hitting their blindspot. it's unlikely that anyone would have turrets ALL over an asteroid. it's just not that easy to upply that many rounds to that many guns
Haven't played this but shouldn't the asteroid be pushed back as the drill makes contact with it?
Impressive :)
