Hello Penguin, thank you for your question. the only DLC block on this are 2 Transparent LCDs Right and left of the cocpit. you could use a Vanilla Text Panel instaad. The craft is Survival ready. you will need to connect it to a h2 generator to fill up its tank and its recommanded to charge the batteries first.

any versions that don't require DLCs? and work in survival?
DerMakrat  [author] 9 Mar, 2023 @ 4:32am 
i hope too :)

I thought that might be the case. Meaning I have to convert my ship to a station so it stops moving(Which worked btw). Shame, I was kind of hoping the script is gonna figure out the path finding better so I can last second escape and not worry bout the miner.
Either way with the new update around the corner, hopefully it will fix it.
thanks again :))

Hello MIQL, thanks for your comment. about the issue with the docking. the pam sricpt is flying a per recorded path to a point. it could be that the connector and the battleship moved a bit. after taht the ship wont get the connection. it could also be taht the connector is facing up or down if you try to connect facing up or down the ship could not have enought thrust to manuver to the position. try recompiling the programmable block and record the path again maybe. Let me know if that helps or i can do anything else.

Hey man, that's a great design... compact, stylish, self sustaining and PAM. Everything an engineer needs. In fact I was looking for something like that for my battleship, she fits in very well.
I do have a question though. As Im not too familiar with PAM, all the automations and scripts that well. Iris wont dock properly on an outside port of my ship. It would go back and forth trying to dock but not aligning properly. Is this due to PAM being PAM or is this something in the design of the ship? In short not sure why Iris wont finish the mining job and dock properly.

@Dermakrat Im looking for a large grid miner with all the feature you have here needs to be Moon comparable do you have any you recommend or can you build one ?

Hello Kenneth, glad you like the craft and thank you very much for the feedback.
I paticular like point 3 :)
the side descent is a bit of a problem. I could not find a solution for while still fiting the size requirement.
about the flight time. yes when its full and movering the flight time can be only 10 minutes in atmopshere but its still cabable of breking out of gravity and returning with ore. still your criticism is right. i tested it with a hover time of 15 min check the quide for more infos.
