Absolutely awesome. Sort of reminds me of the suits in Monsters INC - Incredible work, thanks for sharing this.

"Wanted to say thank you to everyone enjoying this old thing" Old thing my a** :steamhappy: This is what is called a "timeless classic" ! I might try other designs when I start playing Avorion again, but this will be forever my first choice. Well done !

Wanted to say thank you to everyone enjoying this old thing. Blackhorse_Six, I have added the different colors you wanted as well as updated the design ever-so-slightly. Hopefully they'll serve ya'll well.

Almost two years later, still my favorite utility drone ... Wish the author would come back and help me with those role-colors ...

Fantastic! This will be my GO-TO custom mining drones moving forward, thank you!

I love it so much ! On every ship I have at least one of it, since Drones are really useful to open stashes and such, where your own ship is too clunky to fly into the asteroid field.

The design is awesome !

reminds me of the starter ship from rebel galaxy 2

Looks like the ship from Void Destroyers 2

Good little workhorse.Looks good too. Thanks.

THIS is my favorite universal utility drone. My only lament is that I cannot figure-out how to paint it. ... I would like to paint several in primary colors like RGB and Magenta, designated for different roles aboard the same ship or station ... Since I can't figure-out the how-to, would you care to update this pattern in those colors?

Hi, boooooaaaaa rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, finally a drone for the hangar. Very nice work and will be able to use it many times.

This is a really beautiful drone. Shame it is not showing up in my list (yet).

I wonder if you are okay with me incorporating it into some of my mines and factories? It is a beautiful piece of design =o)

Hi, the BP don,t show up in "saved ship"?

Very nice looking ship. Well done.

I subscribed to it myself and it seems to have worked (not that i don't already have the thing on my computer lol). It was sitting in my "workshop" Saved Ships folder... thing.

One thing i can think of that might be the problem is that I'm running the "Beta" edition. It's got all of the experimental turret stuff going on. Not sure if that's the problem or not (as in, not sure if you need to be running the Beta Edition as well), but the design doesn't have any of those turret blocks on it.

If anyone else has any idea what it might be, I would appreciate it. I'm not too familiar with how these things work as far as just clicking on the stuff.

I can't seem to get this Blueprint loaded in the game. It does not appear in the "Saved Ships" tab nor "Build Fighter" option at a factory. I downloaded another ship although, and it appeared in the tab. Any ideas?

Surprised no one has made a claptrap drone yet actually; rather tempting actually lol. Still, this one would be a far less annoying cousin. At the very least the engineers knew better than to add the ability to speak. Can't say that it wouldn't try to kill you, but at least you won't have to suffer through all the dialogue.

this must be claptrap's more fortunate cousin :3 *tip hat*

Ah, yes, MadCat, long time ago I played active the RPG, now I play BattleTech, but I didn't notice a MadCat ingame unfortunately.
Nice work anyway :)
Keptora  [author] 4 Aug, 2018 @ 5:59am 
It kinda reminds me more of the Madcat. Never gave this thing a name really. It's about as generic as you can get, but i can't think of anything in particular that i had as a reference for it other than a drawing i did of a cargo ship and these things flying around it.

Couldn't get the proper curves within the block limit of course but the actual drawing of the thing is far more rounded. The pods aren't suppose to be box-shaped at all. I will admit that I it turned out better than i thought it would. Even had enough blocks to add the "hoses" to the arms... though i couldn't get all the lights i wanted on there too XD

What was the origin name of the Mech? Maurauder? :)
