Brilliant, neat straight tunnels, speed control everything.
it might be a good idea to put a sensor block in front of the tires set to either stop or reverse direction on those rotors if it detects that there aren't any blocks just incase your tunneling device runs ahead of the assemblers and you run out of steel plates as a safety.
Good idea. Could of saved my rig from falling if I did that lol.
This is just awesome! Planning to build something similar, but with a conveyor running in the track. Will use it to connect mines to the base.
So glad you dropped it at the end, i was wishing for it
I built something similar, a tunnel machine that also welded up a full road behind it. It is slower as it uses landing gears to pull and push its way forward, but completely autonomous so I can do other things while it works away.
Interior plates of interior blocks take less iron per item, might be a better thing to use/test
You are evolving, fast...
what if you add grinders on the back to help reuse some of the iron plates that probably wuld be enough to keep up the welding
Well it depends on the 4 speed factors. First and foremost the speed of the mining machine then speed of the assembler, the speed of welder and finally speed of grinder.
Here why those speed become important
1) speed of miner if it’s too fast the welder won’t be able to weld enough and grinder will chew through to fast and miner will drop.
2) if the miner is just the right speed for near complete the weld, the basic assembler either will need more unit to produce what needed or have a assembler with speed modules for faster production.
3) welding/grinding if speed is equal then it game over miner will drop unless you go in world setting and reduce grinding speed while maxing the welding to prevent mining drop
Glad you let it fall off lol
Had to do it 😀
Nice video I like the idea ! How do you make the ramp base (the white ramp) at 2:51 ?
I personally am more a fan of systems that use pistons and merge to the main grid, that way you only need a short projection and it can go for an infinite length. It would also continuously connect to the main grid, that way you can make it lighter by putting the refineries and power generation off it as well. Basically having your entire main bases infrastructure at your disposal.
Interesting idea having it create a track that runs through the center of the machine. Would be neat and more effective if it instead created a road underneath it that it could drive on and future vehicles could drive on afterwards. The center post almost seems as if it would just need to be removed later for tunnel to be effective for traveling vehicles.
How can I use this in a mining rig, like something I can just have go while I relax and never have to worry about steel plates again? Or even modify it so it could have other drills that branch off of it and I could mine even more?
I take it you set the assemblers to continuous mode making the steel plates?
Also, looks like there is room to add one more speed upgrade to the assemblers.
Do we think with two refineries and assemblers and if had more drills collecting it would keep up on welding, built something similar but not tested yet now im worried as i have welders to do two roller tracks instead of one and also weld full runnel as i go, 6 blocks high 15 wide.
II would love to see something like this go through an entire planet
An easy way to make a subway to move! Thank you!
Awesome!
Good idea, good work good video!
I like it!
From Russia with love!!!
Its is a cool idea ;)
Thanks
Have you tried adding a remote control / antenna/ cockpit and right clicking from afar?
This is insane. Would be kind of cool to see a plan for resetting the rig to take another shot at the mountain.
Could you bring the drill back to a mobile platform then convert it to a station after moving the platform?
@@shainekennedy2742 Sounds like a maybe. I don't know.
more vertical drills would A: make the tunnel look cleaner, since the 2 drills each made the top and bottom uneven and B: you would get a bit more stone and by that be able to make a bit more plates.. good job tho
I just got 8 notifications of hearts, thats some tough love brother
Appreciating your comments!👍
All hail viewer engagement!
how did you make the projection ?
Pretty sure you can double click with tools to toggle them on and off
neat! so holo projectors automaticaly build whatever you want - did not know that! I'm still learning this game!
Not on their own, you have to weld the holographic blocks either by hand or with a welding tool
@@gsogaming5783 true. I need to get back to this game at some point... :D
WHERE to get this creation on workshop?
Круто)
why dont you just group the drills and turn them on/off instead of the tools blocks thing
U forgot maybe activate or maybe deactivate "Welder help other"
now switch welders for grinders and run it backwards!
Is this rig on the workshop
Next thing to do is well... as soon as you have your hole drilled, just replace the welders with grinders, and let it clean up the mess for you! :D
Damn, now I just want to dig big holes into mountains and build my bases in em... only if I had more than 4GB of RAM on my PC... which I guess means I could transition over to the Xbox ported version. :/
Turn the settings all the way down I used to play with 4gb on my desktop but my laptop only has 8gb and plays just fine
@@Wesleystewart78 I've tried that before, and still had issues... :(
Saw this had two comments was like why so low? Then saw time stamp..
What was the bottleneck, resources or production?
This specific build was production. Needed to add more assemblers.
@@PandemicPlayground I would bet one or two more speed modules on the assemblers would have been enough to handle it. Great job on the video.
hmm Vanilla Keen servers are limited to 5 Drills/Grinders/Welders [also 20k PCU limti]. Can this be done within those limits? Can it be done at a diagonal?
hmmm, perhaps that's another test. I have plans for testing it diagonally.
@@PandemicPlayground worth noting: Keen Server Players can work together, but do not have much if any access to scripts.
@@Peoples_Republic_of_Cotati Yes and yes...with caveats.
.
The drill limit basically means all 5 have to be forward-facing, and will have to be set to collect rather than bore (or there's no way you'll get enough stone to make the basic blocks). But, you don't actually need the front of the rig to be "open" as it is in this video. The projection can go through the craft itself with no issue. So long as the welders are behind the drills, and the guide-wheels are behind the welders, there's no issue at all. Also, to make sure you don't risk any gaps in the guideway, you can make it one block wide instead of two. So long as the wheels are done properly, it should remain stable.
.
For diagonals, you'd need one or two rotors to start with. One to adjust the horizontal, and one for the vertical if necessary. Set the angles, lock the rotors...let 'er rip.
Even with voxel I can't build a straight damn tunnel. You keep clipping through walls all the time. This seems like a better alternative which works. :)
And that is saying something about the game when voxel work is actually harder than making some rig for both Creative mod and Survival mod
wait.. why is it not breaking due to weight?
What keeps it from dropping downward?
no suspension
can't u group the drills and set them to "Toggle On"?
Setting them on causes them to collect. Right click clears a larger area without collecting and you can't toggle that function on.
Is there a blueprint for the rig?
I'll work on getting this into the workshop for others to play around with.
@@PandemicPlayground did you?
@@PandemicPlayground Yes please do, I'd so love to use this to bore a tunnel in out mountain base in my games server.
Lol, small scale, yeah right.
Run out of Projection? No Problem, just stop and with A projector on the back assemble a frame that holds an identical projector and off u go with 1000 more blocks of projection. So now can we tunnel THROUGH the planet?
лайк лайк лайк лайк. а где можно найти твой монорельс? видео.

There is a T in the word mountain... your saying maou-in should be pronounced maoun-ten. Nice rig!
How are you gonna get pendantic on pronunciation and add unecisary phonems?
mOUntin [iPa phonetics] ou is the accented voul so the t should follow that.
Mount-in
Ou is a dipthong
Why add an a in there?
The way that would be pronounced
Ma-ou-nt-in
(Ultenantly this can be pronounced with the t in the suppressed syllable, this would be consistent with cVc- cvc)
@@chiefgully9353 The t is not silent.
@@conanthedestroyer7123 rigt... amd there is no A in it. Your the worst kinda wrong being wrong while correcting some one
@@chiefgully9353 nope your wrong.
@@conanthedestroyer7123 lol ok guy. IPA international Phonetic Alphabet. Literally the pronunciation guide.
Comment
Thanks
First 👌🏻😎
Cut the good view and then show the bad view till the end. Very bad cutting.
