@thursten4Moore How can you *hate* a system that you haven't figured out how to use yet?
Why not give it a try before passing judgement...
Looks super cool in @spanj's Alpha 9 let's play (Which got me to reinstall btw...)

Spanj, I made some adjustments to this excellent build that turned it into a dedicated miner that is 100% A9 compliant, using only 3900/7500 CPU. Friend me if you like, as I have it privately published. Didn't want to steal your thunder, and would rather you look at it, to tell me what you think!

@thursten4Moore - you need to add a ammo container controller and then add a couple of extensions next to it, you can then put ammo in it

Thanks for the HV. I added it to my game, and then I attached a couple of Gatling Guns to the sides. but I cannot figure out how to load the ammo. I go to the Control Panel and under Ammo it says "None" even though the Gatling Guns show up on the toolbar when I enter the HV. I don't know how to do this with the new logistics system? (I hate the new logistics system.) Any secrets on how to add ammo?

Hello Spanj and thanks for that really useful but,quite honestly, ugly little "mule" (sorry for that one....). It's a real good level 5 starter HV for cargo but man, it's not one of your most beautiful i must say even if it's much better than the one i will ever be able to build!!!! Keep your great work, i love watching your vids and i hope we will be able to still use all your creation in alpha 9

learned a lot form a bunch of your vids, thx spanj ;)

PS: the half blocks below on the same level as the docking gear block prevent it from docking. sadly the docking gear needs to be the last "layer" so to speak, for it to work.

im pretty sure this isnt a miner... at least i think not... but excellent work none the less! i love your use of storage space. it actually makes sense to god mode in and realize "this is where all the stuff is being held" so the room it takes up is justified to me. HOWEVER i think some numbers need tweaking lol like the fact my inventory shouldnt be bigger than a storage sontainer... of any size LMAO thats saying that im walking around with 4 of those extentions on me at all times? lmao but excellent work on the video and the build!! great work!! i actually have a 10,000 L capacity Miner out now! lol make one please and put me to shame!!!

your designs are always always always great. your youtube channel is very nice also. you do a gread job. thank you again :) .

Saw this on you last video. Nice build! Love it. 3250 L volume...yeah, that´s a lot. It´s hard to get that storage inside a small SV. I don´t like the new modular cargo system. Hope they will balance it more out, sepsecially the ammo box controllers. Insert a stack of bullets into it and that friggin thing is overloaded. Thumbed, subbed and faved! :)
