A very funny situation - a miniature circular saw cuts everything around it, including the piston on which it is installed.

np :)

k np and thanks for the help

Then I think you wanna play with the size line I mentioned below. But it's a mystery on how that works. Which I have no idea.

I think set x to 1, y to 1, and z to 1snd and that should be 1000.

Keep in mind the world multipliers (inventory size 5, 10, 20 I believe has an impact on size of the drills inventory size.

I think.

im wanting to make its inventory like 1000 Liters instead of what it holds now

Depends on which one you want to change,

You'll want to change the line: <Size x="4" y="5" z="1" />

which line and its only for personal use

You will want to change the EntityComponents.sbc file. Just don't re-upload the mod is all I ask. :)

where would you find the file to change its storage on them i would like to turn it down, don't mind to do it myself just need to know the path to it.

You know, for Azimuth stuff, this is very balanced. please do keep it that way. 10/10 mod

The mod still works, it's just slightly overpowered right now. I'm working through the incredible backlog I have right now of mods now that i have blender working.

Please update

Oh also cargo capacity.

Ok I can look into reducing the cutout radius.

@SEModder4 thats exactly the problem. The small ship vanilla drill is massive relative to the azimuth grinder, and drill. The size and material differences logically should have a reduced radius.

@BAKADAKALAKA556,
It's set to the same stats as the small ship vanilla drill.

<SensorRadius>1.3</SensorRadius>
<SensorOffset>0.8</SensorOffset>
<CutOutRadius>1.3</CutOutRadius>
<CutOutOffset>0.6</CutOutOffset>

@BAKADAKALAKA556 you gotta do the same thing I did.

the Grinder Cut radius is huge cuts into whats around it and holding it

@Dragonspride, sure as long as it stays friends only. Thanks.

@LAVB0yActual, No, I'll look into them once I return home.

are t he grinders meant to grind blocks behind?

Hello, I'd like to ask for consent to use a modified version of this for my friends group. I'll make the mod set to friends only. I want to lower the drills volume to .5, 1, 1 and its cutout radius to .8

Azimuth Drill Mod Update Notes(Update: 5/15/2024): Mod Update: Code Fixes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
=>Fixed large components not moving through small conveyor tubes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have any mods that change inventory size, but I have played around with a few more small drills from other modders. These may or may not mess with the vanilla drills or each other somehow.

After my edit of EntityComponents.sbc:

<EntityComponent xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_InventoryComponentDefinition">
<Id>
<TypeId>Inventory</TypeId>
<SubtypeId>AzimuthSmallGrinder_SEM4</SubtypeId>
</Id>
<Size x="1" y="1" z="1" />
</EntityComponent>

The inventory size is now 1000 liters.

Before editing, the size tag was <Size x="4" y="5" z="1"/> which translates to 20.000 liters in Keen's weird scheme (I would simply have used liters).

Do you have any mods that change inventory sizes and or what are your advanced world settings set to?

Both can affect the inventory sizes of the drills heavily.

Found it in EntityComponents.sbc with help from Digi. He has written an article about the topic:
https://github.com/THDigi/SE-ModScript-Examples/wiki/Hidden-SBC-tags-features#entity-components

I can look into that tonight.

I like this drill in most respects, but the capacity seems a bit excessive (larger than the vanills small drill, which has a larger model to begin with. I wanted to change that for my own game but did not find the parameters in CubeBlocks_Azimuth_Drill.sbc. Where do I have to look?

Not sure if it is any help but i had a similar problem, i had vanilla drills on a miner and they were harvesting something like 1~2% of what they were supposed to(i had 1 small grid large cargo and i drilled ~500 meters into an asteroid and only filled 70%of it) When i removed this mod from the load list and tried again i was back to normal mining yields

Yes they are completely different systems. :)

That is completely normal. :)

The vanilla drills work normally on asteroids, I switched them out to try and it worked as should. But as soon as I put the small drill back, no stone is collected by the drill.
To be sure I spawned the same ship blueprint on earth to try and drill the stone there, and again that worked as intended.
So maybe asteroids are a different "texture or material" than the stone on planets. I'm just guessing, I have no clue.
Thanks alot for responding.

That's odd, but it simply is the same as Keen's drill, I'm not sure why it is happening.

It seems after the last major game update a lot of my mods have issues now. I would see if the vanilla ones do as well. It could be a game bug or something I have to change.

Yeah I'm using the "block tool tab" on the toolbar menu and left click to drill. It works on earth stone, but not on asteroids. I use 2 small drills on pistons on a small hydrogen ship. Similar to a design I have effectively used on earth.

Are you using it on your toolbar or right clicking?

Awesome drill, love it. But the drill doesn't seem to be collecting asteroid stone. It does fine collecting stone on planets and it collects ores from asteroids, but not the stone. It just makes a hole in an asteroid.
Do only I have it or is it a bug?

correction: med cargo = 3375 L

It 'kinda' makes my small drilling rover tip forward alot.If only it would balance with 1 medium cargo like the normal smg drill.

What is the base inventory size of the tiny drill? smallgrid is what I am interested in. In my private (survival impossible) world I had an inventory of 20k liters. While normal sg drills are 3200 ish. Did I mess up somewhere with inventory modifiers?

The drill doesn't seem to be collecting anything. Doesn't even make collectible rock. Just removes whatever it mines. Is there anything extra I'm needing to add to make it collect ore? I have it hooked up to a conveyor and it all works fine with a normal drill. Thanks in advance for the help.

Azimuth Drill Mod Update Notes(Update: 5/7/2023): Mod Update: Code Fixes
----------------------------------------------------------
=>Fixed the toolbar config not working after the latest mod update. This is now permanently fixed and updated.
----------------------------------------------------------

A fix will go out for these this weekend that will fix the bugs with the block tools grouping.
I got covid from my vacation trip and it's pretty much beat the heck out of me so far.

Yes, that is my plan for this week.

Hey, this is a great mod! But for some reason it does not show up in block tools anymore. Any chance you can resolve this? I really appreciate it :)

I can look into that. I just got back from a 2 week vacation now. :)

Do we have a fix for getting the drill to show up in block tools?

For some reason i cant add the drill on the toolbar for control with the mouse . i mainly use this mod for digging out corridors so it would be awesome if that could be fixed

I think it currently is that, but I'd have to push an update to all of Azimuth which would be a pain. :D

is there way to make drilling radius to 0.5
