Space Engineers - New Block's Interplanetary Tanker / Hauler
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2021
- Astron is a simple yet reliable hydrogen tanker which can easily be converted into a conventional cargo container hauler. This adaptability has given it a veritable reputation as a reliable workhorse for growing interplanetary commerce, even if its pilots often complain about lack of crew amenities.
Comes equipped with a jump drive for quick hops between stations.
HOX! For some reason the ship wobbles if connector is attached while dampeners are on. Remember to turn the dampeners off before connecting!
Astron, interplanetary tanker/hauler (No mods)

I think the "solar pannels" are meant to be radiators. Take a look at the diagrams of the ISS. Very important thing for a spacecraft that gets forgotten in many sci-fis.
The biggest misconception of space is exposure will kill you from the body being unable to disperse the heat naturally generated. All that heat will then push the moisture out of your body where it will create a thin ice layer.
@@TrueMohax So.. do you mean the exposure kills you or not?
What's the misconception?
Or did you mean that the misconception is that exposure kills you by freezing your body, while in reality it's heat that does you in?..
You're not really helping clear up the misconception with your poorly constructed post mate. :)
@@ayporos
Exposure will kill you, just not right away, you have a chance to survive it. For the longest time it was widely believed that your body would either freeze or explode, but that’s not how it works in reality. Heat is an energy that cannot be destroyed or altered, but it can be transferred. On Earth we are able to relieve the body the heat in our bodies thanks to oxygen. Since there is nothing in space to help relieve the heat, all of that energy is trapped in our bodies where it accumulates. The natural response our bodies take to cool down is to begin sweating. All that moisture will be pushed out of the body because of heat forced it out, where it will freeze from the energy being unable to escape.
Does that make more sense?
@@TrueMohax Not completely.
The first part of it does, but the final part doesn't.
"where it will freeze from the energy being unable to escape"
That's a load of rubbish isn't it? If energy is unable to escape, how does that lead to freezing?... it doesn't. The extremely low pressure (basicaly vacuum) means the sweat would boil instantly, but that doesn't really cool you down because the boiling point for water in a vacuum is below the average human body's temperature.
I believe the primary dangers of vacuum, aside from not being able to breathe, are that you cannot get rid of your body heat fast enough through only radiation and possibly that exposed (to vacuum) liquids boil, expanding rapidly possibly damaging you? I don't believe 'freezing' plays any part in it? I mean sure the expulsed gasses/vapor will eventually freeze after having radiated enough heat away, but this I believe takes place well after those liquids/gasses have stopped being in contact with your body.
@@ayporos
The ‘Freezing’ water was from the moisture being pushed out of the body without any of the heat getting dragged with it. Space is isn’t what makes it form into ice, it’s the lack of heat.
Pump a bucket of water through a hose into a coolant system, and the other end will expel the water back into the bucket. The device will draw out the heat from the water as it runs through the pipes. Once most of the heat has been removed from the bucket of water you will begin to see slivers of ice forming. In less then a minute the bucket will turn to ice.
That is what is happening with the body when exposed to space. The moisture that is pushed out has the heat pulled back into the body, leaving the liquid to freeze.
Not to this quality, but this is how I always build my ships in SE. I love how the industry blocks look and hate how boring the armor blocks are in terms of detail. Sadly my ships turn into confetti when they run into any form of aggression. Lol
That's highly realistic then, your not building a merchantman that's designed to manage limited combat roles, it's the cheapest, fastest ship possible while carrying as much as possible.
Indeed, armour is just that, armour, i kinda hate how it's become the default look for space engineers, and people seem obsessed with combat
@@sierra1513 I feel the only reason people are so into combat is because there aren't many other things to do in the game story wise. Like yes you can negotiate trade with other factions and whatnot but let's be honest, who trusts a random person at a random jump point? If there were to add more modes or commerce such as how they did with the economy but just better, more protection, more variants of trade and money usage, actual like mission that multiple people have to do to accomplish.
thats why i get mods that add sheilds. so i dont confetti my lovly builds
@xXELITEXxGrunt Etalica @Sierra , you both make great points. I wish there were more purpose for civilian ships too.
I really like that this ship follows "the expanse" essence of "sticking some thrusters into a piece of junk" looks like something a belter would build in a couple of weeks to make a quick buck going from ganymede to ceres as fast as they can.
That’s Halo UNSC essence lol
Alternatively, the OPA could easily commandeer it and turn it into a troop carrier of some kind.
doesnt really look junked, it looks more of a plausible looking spacecraft you might see soon in the future
It's got some "KSP/Children of a Dead Earth" realism to it.
It’s naked!!!
3:40
That's a radiator.
Edit: It's a hydrogen tanker. I'd imagine that the little orange radiator panels around the main engine might be enough to keep that from overheating, but then you also need to somehow keep the hydrogen from evaporating in the tanks.
Was looking for this... Been watching a lot of these showcases and I'm amazed how little he knows about sci-fi shows and real space stuff lol
You're spot on with what the idea was. The radiator for keeping hydrogen cool and the small fins to radiate from the small burns from the engine. Naturally it would need massive fins for the nuclear plant if I wanted to make it hard scifi but I couldn't fit them in nicely visually so I just handwaved it all off along with the jumpdrive :p
@@OctoBooze Obviously the engine fins operate at a much higher temperature, so they don't need to be as big.
Another beautifully realistic ship, I really love the simple uses of the new panels to create radiators, nothing out of place!
Fun drinking game for the LSG channel.
Take a shot every time Arron does a review without looking at the ship first, mislabels something, or misses an important feature
Even if i drank shots of water, I'd still OD from his errors
Even if I drank shots of air, I'd still explode with all the air entering my body at such speeds
That's part of the charm though, watching him do it all on the fly
alternate version: a shot every time he says "like so"
That part that looks like a fold out solar panel is actually a radiator, similar to what is seen on the ISS.
and if you have the one thermal dynamic mod THATS a issue
Greetings tech priest! Ave Omnissiah.
Yea the new beam block are stupidly good for adding detail, I made an entire ship just using beam blocks as "armor" and it already look 10x better than any ship I've build before, it has a very "used world" aesthetic to it
Amazing. This is very close to how i always wanted the "old" derelict gastanker to look. And that radiator really is my highlight. I spend years trying to build those on my more realistic vanilla ships
I love the realistic look of this ship
gotta love the radiator on the side
With a passenger deck or similar you're cutting off the fuel pipe for the forward engines, which would seem to be a problem...
Call a space plumber to fix it
@@rebelRed_ _let's go!_
you could loop the connectors overhead or underneath and that leave some room for interior
@@genericuser984 while the most sensible solution, it is also the most awkward one
Reminds me a lot of the ships from Children of a Dead Earth.
This dlc is actually pretty nice
Shame that keen is selling essentialy block skins. They'd better be putting this money into a rework
@@UnknownPerson-cq3qv yea, this is the 10th dlc, and it’s the first one sind wasteland I really like, should really do bug fixes now.
@@kons37flyingreaper41 you should really starting to read the changelogs
@@jh5kl I meant for looks, tough I do want an bug fix of, everything down to the game being an cpu consumer
It is simplistically beautiful and the ideas running through my head, sooo much you could do with this, amazing job :D
For the commerce module, it would be very cool to have more cargo available and that the amount you can contract to haul is directly related to how much capacity your ship actually has. It would give a reason to build massive cargo ships. Unless I have missed something, and that is possible.
i mean your ideas just need some mod work for it. because keen is lazy and im just waiting for the modders to change the way the indrustrial blocks are so some tlc exists.
1:10-1:14
I think that’s a Communications Tower, although it could function as that.
3:28 Those pannels seem to indicate maybe Scanning equipment with an Auxiliary Communications Tower (Probably in case someone does use the other one as a “Collision Rod”)
3:42 I believe that’s a Radiator panel, mean to Help cool the hip, because Space Might be cold, but without any air, it’s extremely easy to cook yourself inside your own ship without precautions taken for Thermal control.
4:23 I believe those are also Radiator Panels meant to specifically be used by the Engine, so it doesn’t incinerate itself, Bad Engine = Bad Problems.
As I have an undersized pea brain, I'm really happy that you can now use blocks for their intended purposes, instead of being creative and using ground down stuff as an approximation
I like to use mods for added aerodynamics, reentry heating, and having thrusters actually provide torque. This ship *almost* looks compatible with most of those; I would use it to airdrop supplies from space into the atmosphere by detaching the lighter forward section of the ship.
Tbh if I was using that I think I would extend it slightly so that I can add connectors in between each to make the parts interchangeable on the fly rather than breaking down the parts and reinstalling different ones. It would be a bit more complex, but I think it would just make the thing feel more versatile and realistic. Especially since modern shipping vessels have interchangeable parts for their cargo (shipping containers).
This is my favourite ship design that I’ve seen in Space Engineers. Gorgeous. Love the aesthetic.
3:40 That is probably a radiator. It's a nice addition, that almost every scifi movie, novel, game, etc. gets wrong or leaves out completely.
or its nul because the mcguffin or 6 make them worthless
Wow. What a great adaptable ship design! It can go from being a gas carrier, to a dry cargo (like Ores for instance) carrier, to modules you could make and place that have crew quarters. Also, think of the possibility of including big hangar bays and ship storage and transport, you have an instant Carrier Vessel for carrying Fighter Class strike craft!
This ship design is great! I love it! Thanks for this review, Nicely done!
I have to admit after I bought the new DLC i'm addicted to SE AGAIN. lol I amazing how a bunch of reskinned blocks can make the game seem brand new again.
wow, the front bit with the sideways thrusters and beam blocks look so good
this looks very cool! keep up the good work
I wish cargo ships saw more use in servers, the only way I could think of forcing players to do it is if papers were required for combat and specific ships, I think that would make a cool idea, though it would require police lmao
This reminds me a lot of this version of the Millennium Falcon that had a big string of cargo pods connected to that fork in the front. It made a lot of sense, but it was also kinda strange to see something from Star Wars looking so 'Space'-y.
The thing with the beam blocks texture is; You need to use either the standard skin or "battered" skin and also don't pick a color that is too light. Something darker works great for them in combination with the mentioned skins.
This Hauler/Tanker built seems to use the "clean armor" skin with a fairly light grey color, which I'm not a fan of :/
But the beam blocks in general are great!
One of the best designs ive seen in a long time.
This really reminds me of the Caterpillar hauler in SC. Nice design though, very versatile and industrial looking.
Great video... I really need to try and figure out use of the projector.
I like that the extendable connector is in line with the cockpit, if you don't use 3rd person when flying, it would be very simple to connect. The only upgrade I could think of is if you could swap the carry section via merge blocks like a cargo ship with freight containers
1:36 agreed. Yellow hazard stripes are needed here. Or maybe I'm just hooked on them cuz I just figured out it was just a paint skin and not some dlc block I had yet to get. This entire design is really inspirational to me tho, I'm definitely stealing some ideas from this. however I prefer to use the Industrial tanks as end caps to a string of regular tanks. It just looks really cool like that imo
Ok, just got this video in my recommendations and I liked it. Nice game btw
its the grand daddy of the genre of landable full terraformable planets, heavy on physics universe, buildable spaceships and giant land vehicles, ingame programming, train between planet and moon etc
I agree; I was really excited about the beams, but working with them can be a bit of a let-down. It is tricky to PULL the detal out of them.
very cool
This looks kind of similar to a modular freighter i once built, although it didn't have a fixed superstructure like this one, it would just assemble out of reactor modules, thrust modules, cargo modules etc.
I think i should have a go and redesign it with the new blocks. 😁
3:10 Again with those innuendos. 😏
I could think of some neat little modifications for it, to make it kinda like that one weird looking helicopter that picks up cargo containers, it could have little merge blocks on it to make it so you don’t need to break and rebuild pieces to replace them too.
With some merge-block magic I guess the whole front part could be switched between Tanker or Hauler quite quickly
If you cut it off at the area where the rear and cargo/hydrogen connects and add two merge blocks to the Beams so they can connect and then 2 connectors you could make it so it could detach one and attach to another.
Cant wait to see what the DRF are going to do with the new bloks
That's a cool ship
I think the folded out panesl are supposed to look like the radiator panels you can find on the ISS.
Well it sounds obvious, but it looks .... Industrial. I like it! :)
You could even use connectors and merge blocks to make the switch even faster. Sure, you'd lose a bit of space, but the idea of modular, hot-swappable storage is just too cool to pass up.
Oh no… this is a giant bomb now :o
3:11 these large *BALLS* containing gasses 💀💀💀
Nice
Really good for a drill ship
I'd build a mobile bar & grill, or perhaps a mobile bar & disco.
The slogan would be, "We bring the party to you!"
This looks like something that could actually exist.
The prong on the nose is using armor plates to give it the chevron pattern.
If I were to design a small tanker of freighter I would do something similar to this but probably make it slightly more armoured and also to be able to into a planet.
I would love to have the central area modular so that you could just slot in the mission critical configuration
I'd want O2 in my cockpit. You'd lose the looks, but I'd have to pipe it up.
3:45 It's a radiator pannel.
The server I’m in uses this particular tanker ti transport hydrogen, I finally found the video my faction leader was talking about
I would fill it full of cryopods for long distance travel just turn off initial dampeners and set it to the speedy one to go and boom you got a very effective small ish transport speaking of realistic terms and for if you want to do some sort of space engineers RP server
Nice very nice really nice THE BIG NICE
The folding panel is supposed to represent a radiator
Loosely reminds me of the Explorer class ships from Babylon 5. Lovely and simple build overall though. Good to see something different.
neat
cool
People making new awesome looking ships the day new blocks come out, meanwhile I'm still building flying kitkat bars with the original blocks and cant figure out why they dont look good
New version, hot swappable cargo
2021 a space engineers odyssey
I love realistic ships
Reminds me of a Nexus Jupiter incident ship
Looks kinda Looks Like a ship from the expanse
May I recommend the [SPRT] workshop ships that also came out recently
I love seeing people design far more practical designs for ships, rather than the all too often done glorified massive warships.
It looks like a Drake Caterpillar from star citizen but with all it's intended futures
U could lode that up with war heads and probably still be more useful than the starfortres from the starwars 8th movie
the panels are supposed to be radiators
So he is taking about the ship being easily swappable between hydrogen tanks and storage. But my mind is telling me a revolver style rotating system, 3 hydrogen, 3 storage. Connects with connectors and merge blocks.
The form reminds me of the Drake Caterpillar from Star Citizen
I don’t think I have been this early ever
Oh jeez. Connection ports on pistons is a little too tempting to clang for my taste.
The ship looks like a giant lightsaber
Industrial uber :)
This cargo area must be filled with kamikaze drones!
A cargo variant seriously screams drake caterpillar
those panels look more like radiators than solar panels to me.
It's not from space engineers... isn't this directly based on the medium cargo ships in X4?
Id put toilets thrue the whole length of it :D
railgun, big f*cking railgun
i would transform it into a regenerating missile silo and use it as a long range destroyer type craft
This thing could be an amazing broadside weapons platform as well. Fill it up with turrets, and you get incredible firepower on a very small frame.
@@JRexRegis yes,i just like the idea of a long range destroyed ship but this sounds nice as well
@@JRexRegis The stick is just completely unarmored and vulnerable to a sneeze so perhaps not the best for combat, however I do have plans for a warship in this style too ^^
3:10 huh
me encantaría modificar esta nave pero desgraciadamente Space Engineers ya no funciona en linux así que la única manera en la que puedo sentir que sigo en el juego es viendo tus videos saludos desde mexico
I really wish i had a PC, this game is so fun but my xbox can barely run it without blowing up (lag) and the controls are so weird.
You can connect a mouse and keyboard to any Xbox 1
eeeeelow there! missed watching your vids. big update came out right?
Combat carrier
my guess: it's to weak for it's job. fill up the 6 containers and try it again ;)
How so? Mass is irrelevant in space unless you plan to do some crazy maneuvers. Patience wins always.
Do at every space ship a crash test, just drive the ship and smash into an asteroid, just for fun...
The new metal beams are far too low resolution and low texture detail to fit any of the other blocks. Their shape is fine, but the lack of textures really makes them under performing as a DLC block
Do you think the DRF Commander will ever return to the Colony series it would be a very fun if you did
i already have ......
@@LastStandGamers this has exciting implications 👍
@@LastStandGamers I can't wait to see you commanding the drf once more in the colony Alliance Series it'll be fantastic!!!👍👍😀
@@LastStandGamers I'm a big fan
Thought it was a missile
Drone carrier
