Description
UPDATE: NEW VERSION AVAILABLE:

Check out Gaea, my newest HV miner designed to work in Zeus, or any other CV with internal mining capabilities:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2603108172





This Mining HV is designed specially for the Pack-Mule Land Assault:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2547044579

This will also fit perfectly into the high gravity mining room in Zeus:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2585925204

When spawning this HV, spawn it directly inside the mining room, as shown in the pictures. The purpose of this HV is to provide a safe & very cheap mining option, for any environment.

The Mining Cube does not have enough thrust & lift to navigate any environment, so keep it inside the Pack Mule, or other CV, at all times. It also does not require any optronics (for Reforged)! This HV requires a basic CPU extender only, making it very cheap to spawn.

To use this Mining Cube on the Pack-Mule Land Assault, align the docking pad with the floor sliding door, and dock directly to that door. When you are ready to mine, flip the "Mining Hatch" switch, get in the Mining Cube and lift up using your "Space Bar" to undock. No movement needed, you can simply stay in place.

Once you are finished mining, flip the "Mining Hatch" switch again, get back into the drivers seat of the Mining Cube, and it will automatically re-dock to the Pack-Mule.

FOR VANILLA EMPYRION: This can also work in vanilla Empyrion, but 2 Intermediate CPU extenders will need to be added after spawn.

Enjoy!

If you love the Mining Cube, check out Gaea! My newly release HV with a much needed aesthetic upgrade!

I'm going to be moving the docking pad/foot to the side, and docking the HV to the side of the Zeus' High Gravity mining bay

Nice! Glad to hear! I really need to re-do this one to make it look good though, instead of just a plain cube.

BP updated today. Changed texturing a bit. I also ran into some docking issues & interference with the docking pad itself. So I raised the hover engines inside the ship, and put the docking pad directly on the floor. This should make docking easier, but if you're struggling with re-docking, you can always add a docking pad to the back of the ship, directly below the drill turrets.
