If you retire the old PAM miners, instead of building a museum, you could put them in like a "parking lot" in the CO FE NI outpost. It would bring more life, as it would appears like people stopping there for a MUF FE NI hahaha (Sorry for my writing, english is not my first language!!! Thank you for bringing this series, one of the best out there!!!!)
That's a good idea!! I think I need to expand the PAM center a bit to support more ships.
I would've never been able to tell English isn't your first language. I agree, this has got to be the best Space Engineers series creator out there. You can tell a lot of care went into making all of the different series, on this channel.
This would be a great idea for the roof of CoFeNi. Rooftop parking and a big neon sign to attract all the drowsy space truckers.
If you go into the behavior settings of PAM you can set it set the dump location of the ice. That way it’ll mine, go to dump location, dump ice, mine, repeats till only full of nickel then RTB
Oh really?! That's helpful! Thank you!!
That is super handy thank you!
Hey man, loving the series. Wanted to make a quick comment regarding the PAM miners. I use PAM extensively in my play throughs, and have a lot of experience with them. The reason you’re having to babysit your PAM drones so much is that when you set them up you’re stopping the recording, which then sets your Job Position and then from that point the jobs that you set up are relative to that position. However every time I’ve seen you set up a job, you always move from the Job Position. Because you told PAM to stop recording, it doesn’t know you moved; so it keeps going off-path for the mining. So when you set these up, fly to your Job Position, DON’T MOVE, and then set up your job parameters from that spot and start the job. You’ll likely waste some time “mining” air or ice, but that’s fine because the drone won’t return to base until it has a full inventory anyway, and you can have it eject ice before continuing to mine or return Home Position (if you so choose).
Edit: Oh, and just got to this part in the video, properly set up, the horizontal miners can be used as scraping miners (they’ll go in at a shallow angle) but vertical miners are definitely the preferred option for this moon.
Thank you for the tips!!! Now that you say it, it makes a lot of sense! I had thought it tracks the job position as well and makes one final waypoint to that position, but if that's not true then its no wonder my PAM ships are going rogue!!
Right click on an enemy when the red circle appears to lock on and get a predictive targeting reticule. Also gats are way more effective, bullet spam and cheap ammo and you can fit a lot of extra ammo in cargo compared to autocannons. Fit four gats around a conveyer with a camera to focus fire and shred. You don't want them spread out too much.
For custom turrets, mixing weapon types is not a great idea, they have different projectile speeds and the projectiles are effected by gravity to different degrees.
Double up on the amount of gats or cannons on your custom turrets by putting three conveyers vertically centered on the hinge part, gun on each corner, then pop another conveyer on top of the centre conveyer directly in line with the hinge part and pop guns on each side face between the corner guns. So you end up with a gun pyramid total 8 weapons, ideally gats.
For custom turret PDC's focusing on enemy rocket fire always use gats, autocannons rate of fire is far too slow to be effective against rockets. I would also have a dedicated turret for the purpose, mid combat target switching on AI controlled turrets wastes a lot of time and makes them surprisingly less effective. Interior turrets are actually really good for the purpose of PDC if you want a quick and easy solution. Just pop like four of them in a group and set them to only target rockets, give them a bunch of ammo and you'll probably never need to think about them again.
Really enjoying this series. However, Europa has Platinum and your base is really close to a deposit. Head due South from the "Start_1" gps for 1.44 km... then drill down ~50m. You will probably see Nickel first, but the Platinum is deeper. Get those better tools! Good Luck
Yes Andrew get the digging
Thank you for the tip!
Set up a large turret for the solar system
the yellow color for the hectical john makes it kinda look like a construction vehicle
The flickering and flashing of the damaged solar panel looks really cool.
Shame it only happened when its damaged.
Maybe with some inset lights, with randomly timed flashes, one could make them flicker like that intentionally.
You should complete the welding on your base. Great job on your videos 😊
I love the idea of a mag plate on your ship to grab and "control" the reaver. I would love to see a ship with like no weapon, or very few, just a mag plate, and you grab the reaver and smash everything at high speed on the ground. And you could blueprint it and make a infinite production of those to always have a emergency solution. Could be fun! :D
Really been enjoying your series - Only discovered you by reading someone's comment on another creators video... haha.
Finally caught up with all the episodes 👍Looking forward to the next one!
Turn what's left of the enemy ship or a new ship into a scout drone. Basically a ship flying around keeping guard and acting as an air decoy.
That's a good idea!
I love how the pam miners apparently “poop ice”
I got into space engineers a few days ago and started watching you I look forward to all your videos now :)
if you are new at space engineer look at Splitsie channel as well, he did a serie of tutorial video, some are old but still usefull
For pam setup you can make it go only as far as the ore it needs without worrying about the drop, and as stated below in others you can setup a drop off and it controls the ejection of things as well including the ice... and you may want to put a Pam control on the base so you can see and control them remotely and tell them "RTB" and pause jobs and other things comes in handy in most cases to pull them all back and also the load they have with them and just misc information. PAM is very powerful and does MANY things that you have not touched yet :)
You should definitely add izzys inventory management script to your base so you can always have your welder ship stocked with materials to weld up your base as well as an easier way to keep your fighter stocked with plenty of ammo. You can set the storage on your fighter as a hidden storage that only holds your specific ammo in high quantity. It will make life way easier in the future.
Not sure if you have access to uranium or gold or anything it would require, but a railgun would be useful to cleanly disable weapons without hitting anything else, unlike other sloppier, more explosive weapons.
In regards to your custom turret, there was an easier way. Grind off the large rotor head, use add small, then use the conveyor converter and small hinges then attach your guns and stuff. This way you don’t need a third party drone to move parts into place.
YOU SHOULD MAKE A SATALITE
Yes
Thankyou for showing the turret controller setup etc 🙌
Not sure if you saw my suggestion of using a projector and pistons with a welder on the end to build the underground tunnel to the solar array
You should add a hydrogen engine with a h2 generation on the vertical mining ship so it can never worry about running out of power :)
with enemy grids, you can target them which will give a lead target reticule.... which could help with making more successful shots...
also may be worth swapping those Autocannons out for Gatlings, and fit a nose mounted Auto cannon or Assault cannon as you can fit more Gat ammo and have more for the price of each box of 5 rounds in Auto Cannon mags... where having an assault cannon for taking out at range or hitting base defences then too for the Decafinator
the other potential idea is build some drone missiles or defence drones which can launch at enemies when they get within a certain range... with a self building system when each one launches....
Thank you for the tips! I've been trying to target the enemies but I think I keep hitting the wrong button. I was pressing middle mouse button which seemed to be swapping between my weapons instead of targeting. Maybe it's right click? I'll have to test it.
you're always welcome @@AndrewmanGaming tbf i tend to forget how, or it gets janky for me but think you have to do it from a seat, not sure if can be done from a turret or camera though
wonder if though your middle mouse was bound to something else
I think in the MK 2 version, you should reposition the ejectors. They were ejecting right in the path of the drills and recollecting what was ejected.
I like your new miner design (though I'm not an expert at designing them! 😋). One thought I had on your base building. I came across another streamer who used an automated building robot (not exactly sure what it's called) that he used from the very begining after he got his basic refinery and assemble constructed. Not sure on the range, but it was extremely effective as long as he kept it supplied with resources.
Thank you! That sounds really cool. Was it an actual ship that went around welding things or did things just get auto-welded over time?
Probably Wellingtons favorite mod. Its basically an engineer that runs/flys around building for you. Don't remember the mod name or author though.@@AndrewmanGaming
@AndrewmanGaming I've tried a few times to reply, but the seem to disappear quickly. The UA-camr I saw that on was ResearchMonkey and if I found the right one was the Nanobot Build and Repair by Dummy08.
With how the Pam miners are getting a lot of ice how about a miner like the Pam ones but instead you can fly and control them and get more materials with them when you are waiting for day.
maybe tey to build more drones and search for a way that they can patrol or smth like like, this way u can minimize the damage taken from attacks
My go to for vertical miners is a carpet of cargo 3 wide (5x3x1 (LxWxH)). The length needs to be odd. I start with 2 drills with a large atmo in the middle. The second row is two atmo with one drill in the middle. I alternate like this so I can carry even a full load of plat. The best part is you can have downward cameras on the side to line up PAM jobs.
I’m really happy about how my vertical miners work. I really took my time perfecting it to my needs.
Do you have a discord where I could share the beast?
You really need to target the enemies when in your fighter r turret so it’ll show you where to lead your shots. I also think you need to have decoy towers around your base so give you time.
For real, I dont even think the turret was turned on for both of those fights. Next time I will be more prepared! And thank you for the suggestion, decoy towers sound like a great idea!
@@AndrewmanGaming In my playthrough I’m trying to design a cheap, easy to build (via projector) “missile” that carries a decoy. My theory is to launch 10 or so of these during an attack to divert fire from enemies while my turrets can lock on
You should build a klang cannon, Klang proteccs those who trusts in the klang. :)
That sounds really cool!!! I just need to figure out how lol
love the vid
Then make the digger bigger so you can put more drills on it(including the sides and corners)and more batteries side note always have three times more batteries then you need saves time wait charge longer but work charge longer too.😂😅
I mean I'm a console player and for me it's y to undock/dock or park/unpark thought a thing I found is that you can go to the connector setting and turn off use for parking it's pretty useful i sent this 2 times just in case
The new miner looks so nice with the yellow and gray
looks like an construction vehicle
Middle mouse button switched between all weapon and single weapon mode, maybe you accidentally pressed that? I also never saw you actually start locking on when you said you were locking on, so maybe you were trying to use MMB to lock on instead of RMB?
Also some potential problem with grabbing the Reaver ships and dragging them into range: if your base defenses miss (or overpenetrate) at all, they might hit your fighter, and further, I'm pretty sure I saw a warhead on the thing when you were grinding it so it may just detonate while you're holding it
You're absolutely right! I thought lock-on was middle mouse button for some reason. And good point with the draggy method. It's definitely a risk. Ideally I'd do it with a ship designed specifically for that. Could even make a grinding ship that locks on and then proceeds to grind everything down mid air. But the warheads would always be a risk!
You'll probably have made this correction by the time you see my comment, but when you are controlling a drone via remote control, creating GPS mark from current location will still create the GPS from your PLAYER position (i.e. where you currently were sitting in the Mocha Mobile out on the ice), not from the drone's location. I made this mistake plenty of times after forgetting momentarily I was in my drone's view. This was still true as of Automaton update. Haven't played since, so not sure if this was changed.
I had thought that too, but in a past episode where we were scouting for PAM ore deposits, I tested it out and it did make the mark where my drone was. I don't know when they changed that but they must have and I'm happy for it!
@@AndrewmanGaming Nice, yay! Super happy to be wrong/out of date on it. :D
Put the amg stand storm on the workshop
Really enjoying this series!
Fairly new subscriber here, this is the first SE playthrough that actually has me watching episode after episode of it lol
Also seeing you set up the automated miners that easily with the script inspired me to use it myself aswell :D
Have you considered the advanced welding or w/e it's called mod that adds the ability to detach blocks from owned grids as well as merge them again with weld pads?
I don't remember the exact name but it should be easy to find it...
Could use it to scavenge blocks off the sandstorm in a more immersive way if it has a reactor or something though you'd need to capture the grid to be able to detach blocks...
Beginning of this year I did a circumnavigate the planet in rovers challenge(wonder who inspired me to do that ;p) with some friends and we used that mod and a takeover mod to scavenge batteries off enemy bases and wrecks to fuel our convoy, super handy.
Keep up the great vids! Looking forward to the next ep.
Thank you for the suggestion! I have used weld pads before and I do like them. I'm not sure that I will add them to this series, but I will keep it in mind! Also congratulations on circumnavigating the planet!!! I hope that went well and didnt result in many unscheduled disassembles of your rovers due to cliffs lol
@@AndrewmanGaming plenty of those rapid unscheduled disassemblies did occur as a matter of fact, though not due to our fault most of the time. That bug you experienced with your front wheels locking up was the bane of my existence for the longest time because I was driving a small large grid rover which used a full size refinery as a chassis
I found out that either due to the sheer weight of 300 thousand tons or due to the decorative bits I placed or simply due to lag the front wheels would lock up every 5 minutes at the worst of times, which is unrecoverably fatal at 60m/s barelling down the side of a hill
The remedy I found for this (since restarting with 4 other people would be too slow) was respawning the truck using creative tools,offloading some 100 odd tons of cargo to someone else, alternatively what seemed to have helped was that once the wheels were locked up i went around and removed blocks that were near them, no matter if they seemed to be touching or not, which genuinely did seem to help a bunch.
It's such a shame the wheel collisions are so inconsistent, that happened to nearly everyone who was playing with me and yeah the easiest solution was just to respawn the affected grids and continue on, unless it was my rover that suffered it, that usually meant spawning in an earlier blueprint or rolling back the backup
As for genuine losses we lost only one vehicle because we had someone new to SE on our team and he underestimated how fast 90m/s was going down a steep hillsife and promptly got turned into a red goop upon reaching the base of the hill, all that was left of him was a backpack 800 m away and a hole in the ground lol.
I am confused why you are not making use of the ice the Pam miners are picking up. You could make it into a hydrogen ship. And use it to power the miners themselves.
Should add spotlights
For sure. The custom turrets need them.
Why not fix the AMG Sandstorm up and see if it can still fly?
I can definitely try! Though after that crash it might be a longshot.
@@AndrewmanGaming nothing is impossible for a space engineer. 😁 😂
@@CloudHindlenespecially for someone that has played se for a while
I am having trouble adding the hinge to the rotor it just won’t attach for some reason I am new to space engineers
Nvm I found out how
Retool the digger to alow you to say find resource mine resource return because it knows to search why can't it just consider resource instead of depth.🤔
I don't know if it knows how to actually search for ores. It just sort of mines out the area you tell it to. If I'm wrong on that, being able to tell it to just go find stuff would save me a lot of time!
A good simple way to help your defenses would be to install an AI Defense block on your base you allow your base turrets to target at maximum range
BRO HOW INSTALL THIS GAME IN NORMAL SYSTEM LIKE ANDROID OR OFFICE COMPUTER PLEASE GIVE REPLY
