Also VOD, you have to select what it creates in the production tab. It turns gravel into other things.

Could you add copper to it?

how do i turn this thing on i have it set up and nothing do i need anything for it inventory

all i get is gravel how dose one get it to mine whats under it

@Sapphire I'm sorry, apparently I broke something in the game files, and now I have almost vanilla version of copper needed for production

tested using the Creactor, (Creative Reactor) mod, and it still took about 15 minutes before any gravel appeared. but as long as it works, how long it takes means little. and 15 minutes isnt bad at all, as i am already FAR into the building at that point, adding and fixing etc haha. no worries. as long as it works, which is does, i am happy.

@HummingBeard I know this will sound as a basic question but are you sure the grid connected to it had enough power to keep it running and wasn't constantly running short?
In all my tests so far I've failed to reproduce your issue of it taking ages to start unless there was insufficient power on the grid.


@screemer666 As to keep this mod usable for everyone, I won't be including other mod's ores.

We need cooper

it seems it is just taking VERY long to get going is all lol. plenty of ground for it to turn into gravel, but it took an hour for it to get starting lol.

I've tested it two days ago and it still worked as expected for me.
If you have any issues with it, do let me know in detail what isn't working.

is this thing even working anymore?

Interesting concept, a little too broken for my tastes. Great looking models though!

This mod is great! Is there any way to fix the problem where conveyors cannot pull from the drills inventory? You have to manually transfer it. Thanks!

Maybe add any sort of instructions to the description?

@aluxesxd Because that's not how you use it.
You place it down, it generates gravel and then you go over to your production menu like you would with an assembler, go to the mining drill production and then converts the gravel inside it into the resources you chose.

This is not worth using, there are no options for anything on it, I cannot turn it on willingly, and IT ONLY GETS GRAVEL. It fills the entire inventory in a second with gravel but wont get any ore even directly from an ore deposit.

... but can I use it as a weapon on a ship...

para min nao aparece o laser para construir,o mod nao funciona para min,muito triste

his is not showing in game after subscribing which is strange as it appeared before I uninstalled the game to correct a windows problem, now I have reinstalled the game this will not appear in game, shame as I really liked this mod. But will have to unsubscribe from it.

Heyo

Cool mod, but the access ports on the side don't seem to be working.

Conveyors turn green, "connected", but conveyor sorters don't pull out the gravel automatically.

¿podrias hacer un laser que mine pero de mano?

I will just hook this up to my ship

Is there a version of this mod that is in english?

Let's talk in blocks. How many blocks is the drill radius of this drill?

For our game server, we need an XXL Industrial Drill having a drill radius of 30 blocks to each side. The factions on our server build ships that must go underground and even have battles underground, but the current drill radius sizes restrict the size of our ships.

The drill itself could be 5x5x10 blocks in size. Maybe even two work modi: tunneling (30 blocks radius), and ore mining (10 blocks radius to each side, or 30 blocks but very slow). Can you do such a mod?

and then i just have to refine it all and bam i have enough to replicate earth lool

QUIK maThS: DiS MoD+My Op aUtOcLiCkEr = INF ORES!!!! lol math ppl

u just gave me the bet idea in the world

@thealienguy Are you using the x1 Uranium option or the x100 Uranium option on a world with realistic Block Inventory Size?
On Realistic Block inventory Size you will be unable to create the uranium due to the drill being unable to generate and store any more gravel.
If this is the case, it's best to use the 1x Uranium option instead and hold shift while selecting it to queue 100 of them.

i can't figure out how to create uranium - its just stalling for not enough minerals in the production tab.

Old Sloppy Heresy, yes. Just look in it's production tab and you can turn the gravel into ingots from there.

ejeo, It does sound somewhat like them, yes, though it's required to be used on planets, asteroids, etc instead of needing a direct line of sight into the void.

from what i am reading sounds like a void ore miner. aka energy for ores. minecraft has them

oh so it just turns the gravel into whatever ore you want? that's very clever

It doesn't drill a hole or change your surrounding area, so it's safe putting it in your base.
It generates resources (gravel) as long as it's connected to any voxels with which you can turn those resources into any type of ore.

So does it just drill a hole or does it bring the resources back up?
