Recommended Use / Helpful Tips

- Best used on relatively flat planets E.g. Mars / Pertam
- All turrets are connected to the conveyor system each with their own small cargo container for ammo. Search "ammo" in the rover inventory.
- There are 4 welders & 2 decoys. The 4 welders will repair the 2 decoys, the 3 large cargo containers and the 2 large hydrogen tanks. Be sure to turn the welders on.
- There are 4 small atmospheric & 8 small hydrogen thrusters which you can toggle on/off to help the rover move forward under heavy load.
- When loading/unloading a small rover from the rover bay its best to make sure this rover is level or at a slight decline.

Also just thought i'd put this here for anyone looking for a rover friendly planet other than Vanilla ones.
My friend made a really nice rover planet "Arcadia" with 5 different biomes you can drive all over.

@CDClone Thank you, It took many changes and many hours to get a interior i was happy with.
I'm really glad you like it. :)

I found the best way to connect the rover to a base is to build a small platform in the ground (3x3) and have a piston and connector extend up from the ground to connect to port underneath the rover.
Another way would be to slightly modify the back end of the rover and stick a connector on the rear as there many conveyor ports at the rear (Hydro thrusters etc)

anyone having any easy ways to connect this to a base? under the belly connector is not my specialty :P specially with such a heavy rover, seems to break blocks if i build a platform :D :D :D

drives quite well for a big rover, and interior is absolutly beautiful, i would wish for a bit more color outside but it is easy upwayed by the amazing job you did with the airlock sensors ;)
all in all, AMAZING rover, were gonna drive this to the other side of mars :) thank you for a great blueprint ;)

PS. any chance we could have the small rover you got in one of the pictures? mine are all way to wide to fit in this hangar :D :D :D

Affirmative, it looks amazing. Would've liked a few more front facing guns at the front of the vehicle.
