Hello everyone, I recently looked up how to make autonomous courier drones and realizing how easy they are I decided it was well past time to try branching out into using remote control and drones more. So, I’ve engineered this little thing to serve as a drone outpost. The intent being that it’ll host a mining drone and a...
Hello everyone, Doing a bit more work on the big carrier I’m designing to use with a friend and I’ve sealed up the hangar-areas but now I’ve got a new problem: I’ve got a 23 block long door that could potentially vent a painful amount of oxygen into space. I don’t want to scrap the door because I think it’s cool (and...
Hello everyone, My friend and I are moving on to trying to seal parts of the ship for spaceflight now that our production system works and have started hitting the problem of leaks we can’t find. I recall being told there’s a mod to make this much less difficult when I had this problem on my single-player world but never...
Hello everyone, A friend of mine finally got a computer & connection that can handle Space Engineers and we’ve been enjoying the game together… up until a few minutes before posting. We’ve hit an issue I can’t quite figure out: In the process of building a flying base we’ve found our new Indi Assemblers won’t draw...
Hello everyone, Is there a way to turn off weather on the planets? I’m working on an improved version of the Voxel Lance but persistent blizzards on my testworld bringing visibility to approaching zero is getting rather frustrating.
Hello everyone, It’s more ore less complete so I figured it’s time to share my large grid build: The Voxel Lance steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=31…...
Really wish there was a ‘guess best fit’ option somewhere when building a hull. I’ve got a spot where I’m trying to blend a slope and it feels like I’ve tried every armor piece in every configuration and none of them fit. https://dormi.zone/pictrs/image/cc5eff15-3427-4056-9ccc-1c3a24d154bc.png...
Hello everyone, Figured I’d ask here 'cause I’m getting the problem that got me to quit my previous world again: When I’ve got a sufficiently large build I want to make I can’t clearly envision how I want to assemble it. To take the current example: I’ve just finished building my Miner Mk2 after redesigning it (lost my...
Hello everyone, I’m working on building myself a better mining ship and it’s occurred to me that I predominantly use only two mining methods: Fixed drills or “simple” drilling arms that use only pistons and rotors to extend forward and make a bar of drills drill the area of a field via rotation....
I just finished building a functional ground-base and realized I’ve build myself a little metal square with machines on it. A bit uninspired but functional as I have easy access to everything I need… altogether an OK step up from the starting ‘row of machines’ but still not quite a good base....
One more for today. Planetary HQ for the DSM faction. This is my third run through setting it up as the last two servers went kaput, so the buildings are all blueprinted and pretty easy to throw down and build with nano build & repair....
The most heavily armed and outfitted variant of DSMs most populous ship, the Jackknife Destroyer. This version has a spinally mounted rail gun as well as a frame shift drive for long distance travel. Unpressurized and configured for a crew of up to 3....
After much finessing and hardship, I finally got oxygen and gravity setup. I had to go trough every corner of my hall to make sure that every block had another block either adjacent to it or diagonally to it. And after a bunch of head-banging against the wall -- tada!...
This is my 3rd playtrough, and i am really starting to love theese in-game scripts. They add so much flair. I think I used about two hours just to setup all of my signs troughout my facility! The scripts you see there are Automatic LCDs 2 on the sides and Fancy Status Displays in the middle. I especially like FSD because of the...
