That starter ship is such a good design, I love it. Whoever made it did a great job.

My thoughts are you really need to mount a spotlight on the front so you can see how far off the asteroid you are, and a camera so you can zoom in on distant rocks, aliens, space bunnies etc.

Your suit is allowed to go about 10% faster than top speed of whatever the grids top speed is so that you can catch up to runaway ships traveling at the speed cap.

That offset drill just gives it that A10 Warthog look and there is nothing wrong with that😎

For progression, build small grid often. One great time for that is building a small grid small battery, to minimize waste and destruction of power cells. A small battery is only 2 power cells. Much better than trying to carefully grind a large grid battery. As far as a refinery goes, I suggest setting up a refinery station off on some asteroid. Otherwise, you're going to end up with a massive, unsightly mass attached to that all too small ship.

Maybe you should slap a solar panel on it, when you move the ship has like 30m of power left..

if you tear down the center rear facing trhuster you can dissassemble the thruster comps for cobalt to get get 1 large ot atleast a few small cagro containers

I think building the next level of tools should be a priority! I think it can be done with your survival kit but if not your next item is an assembler so you'll make them in there. Great series, keep it up.

I once fell from a 100 meters of surface in my truck cause I failed to engage the landing thrusters in time and the wheels absorbed all the impact not a single block was damaged not even the wheels or suspension And it wasn't light by any means it was in fact carrying around 100 tons of cargo

The rock just to the upper right of the ship at 24:51 looks just like Wallace from Wallace and Gromit

I would like a feature of the game where you can customize your starter ship with basic items within a time limit

in way of cargo, i tested it in my own game and there is no difference in cargo space from 1 large to 27 small, both take up the same amount of space, so on a smaller ship, its best to not go with the large cargo. You are gonna end up rebuilding the whole ship, so whilst you have the iron and nickel next to you, you might as well do it now. From what you have i would put the refinery in front of the large cargo, it is a 4x2x2, means it will not stick out any further than the cargo container, then have the assembler in front of the refinery, your real problems start when you want to add upgrades to the assembler. the refinery is fine as the upgrades just make it a 4x3x3, cargo is a 3x3x3 so that fits in nicely, but the X shape of an assembler with upgrades is harder to fit in, unless you just make it a 2x3x3 with armour. with that tho means you have to go 7x7 for the engines(thrusters) to fit in, and that makes it a lot bigger than your current ship. So just start making a new ship next to your current one. So much easier, then transfer parts over as you need too.

nice design. I tend to put a conveyer where your refinery is and then attach a refinery on the left and right of it. I like having more refineries at the beginning to process stone as fast as possible.

I almost wonder if you'll have to build a whole new ship eventually as you build up. You have a nice drill ship, But it will be a pain to move around if it grows a lot more.

Have you considered doing this challenge, but starting with the respawn drop pod?

Cockpits are more versatile and reliable than control seats Also to show things on hud you'd need an antenna

I think she's built a new ship right there

You really need a camera and headlight system

There is no Silicone in the game :) But love your vids, keep it up.

Hello, i am not sure that you can scan with a detector without an antenna on your ship. Tips : make two merge block one on voxel and the other to the ship merge then, and the respawn pod don't disappear if you die don't forget to convert it to ship after unmerge

Ok I'm very confused, where did this ship come from and what episode series is this video from cause it not or seems to be different from the moon you started on. I dont recall you building a ship near the barn, this ship is a starter ship.

maybe better to put the thrusters on wings 5 blocks out so you can expand the shuttle without having to move them and adding a second refinery just for cobalt it takes way to much time for it to work through just a thought .

You need an antenna to show on HUD.

Look at you first video the Fe was inside that first or second asteroid you visited. If you marked it, it will be on your gps list.

You should have put the Hydrogen tank over the Right side of the walkway.

New to the game, just play a few hours in this scenario last night, does anyone know if it's possible to connect the other two ships to the main ship to run in tandem with the main ship and break off to use their utilities? I feel like that'd be a great way to start out, but I don't understand the game well enough to know why that would/wouldn't work.

Drills have no collision dmg and thats on purpose

Is there AI in your playthrough or is it essentially just creative without admin mode?

I like the video at all but it's little bit boring sometimes 😕

So very inefficient. 🙁

Drills don't take impact damage. So your entire argument for putting it there is pointless.
