Appalachia Mining Vessel (DLC free version in description)

Description
DLC free version of this ship https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2802466178

A compact, extremely fast light duty vessel designed to be able mine, process, and store ores, while being able to defend itself! It is extremely cheap to make, with no reactors or jump drives, and running solely on hydrogen. it is also capable of atmospheric flight up to 1.2g, but mining on planets can be a chore. there is a very small interior, with a shower and toilet, which is all pressurized. the cockpit offers a 180 degree view off the front of the ship, making it ideal for maneuvering through asteroids. For protection, she has 4 Fixed artillery mounted to the winglets on the back of the ship, which can pick off drones and cripple ships from a distance for easy escapes!

Pros:

-almost all components are accessible from the outside, making for easy repairs in a Survival world
-5 1/2 seconds to 100m/s, 8 1/2 seconds to full stop (empty cargo holds)
-hydrogen reserves last me a couple hours in-game while testing, your mileage may vary
-atmospheric capable on all vanilla planets without modification
-durable, most exterior armor is heavy to prevent damage on asteroids
-fun and fast, can't go wrong!
-stylized to match the vanilla in-game ships
-a good starting ship to build from the space pod, assuming you have ice
-6 large grid drills
-Stone ejector on the back by rear thruster

Cons:

-no turrets, very little room for additional hardware
-no jumpdrive
-hydrogen only
-impacts on ship lead to uhhh..... big booms (lotsa hydrogen tanks)
-not enough storage (i'm trying to squeeze more in, but i don't know if i can lmao)
-smol
-this thing is a WIP, probably gonna cram more junk in the future
