Seems to happen in both. Had my friend start moving the ship upwards (spacebar) when I spawned, and that helped; but he had to stop right away to keep me from phasing thru the floor. Gotta love those multiplayer bugs... I have been able to spawn a couple times normally. Med bays seem to have random spawn points anywhere around the block.

Singleplayer or multi?

Love your builds. By far, best civilian/work ships I've played with so far. Only suggestion I have is a little more space around med bays. Every time I spawn on Queen Bee or Marchioness in survival, half my body is in the roof and I die.

Connectors allow inventory networks to communicate, but they don't automatically move anything across them. "Collect All" will move as many items as possible into the connector itself, and is meant to be used with "Drop Items" to eject everything into space.
I don't normally have any reason to turn on "Collect All".

My recommendation would be to use Automated Inventory Sorting, and add "[Component,Ingot,Ore]" to the cargo container names, and "[Exempt]" to the names of the welding ships' containers (this will stop the cargo containers from emptying those). Note that even with "[Component,Ingot,Ore]" set, refineries and assemblers will still be able to pull from those containers.

well i havent checked with the Miners yet but for the Grinders its the scrapped parts and such. they all go to the workers connector but stop there. i figured because of the conveyor system it would shovel the resources to a storage or assembly

What materials? Only ore will offload by itself, and only until the refineries are full. If you want everything to be offloaded automatically you'll need to use Automated Inventory Sorting .

having a little trouble with the queen bee her self, i connect the workers to the queen but the connectors do not collect from workers and send the materials else where? am i being nooby or something?

This feels great, looks survivalmode feasible, simple small, yet large and complex.

I may or may not have spent several hundred hours playing Homeworld and Homeworld 2 as a young man.

I like how the miners have free access without hangar doors. A concept I'll use for my current project.

Download it, build it, modify it, if you've based something off it feel free to share that too, just send me a link when you're done.
