the wheels are on upside down it wont drive

Is this driveable? What exactly does key 1 do? What do you mean by steering? I tried releasing the parking brake after pressing 1, nothing happened when I attempted to drive using wasd.

This thing is FANTASTIC!!! is by far my favorate way to mine on a planet. Is it just me or does it suddenly topple backwards after drilling? Is this possibly due to the new physics update?

THIS IS SO EPIC

-Facepalm- Didn't see the wheel at first FAIL!

PrussianMedic 16 Oct, 2016 @ 1:16pm

Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 12:38pm 
When you sit in the seat press 1 to access the remote control on the driving chassis. Then go with wasd

how do i drive it or what keys
Grindy Gears 16 Oct, 2016 @ 12:34pm 
I did get a chance to try it out and I think visually it's amazing, unfortunately (and don't take this the wrong way, most people can't even achive what you've done here) but the functionality is a little lack luster. Using the rig i was able to get down to about 12 blocks below grade, which is 30m thats pretty good, but i don't think it'd reach most ores and its design may have some trouble mining the surface rocks. might I suggest a slight redesign to place the pivot of the main arms slightly forward of the wheels that way you can make the maximum use out of the pistons that raise and lower the boom getting a little more depth out of it.

how do i make it drive]
Ringardy 16 Oct, 2016 @ 11:23am 
nice work
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 11:22am 
It goes about 25m keep in mind the main arms lower as well
Grindy Gears 16 Oct, 2016 @ 11:18am 
Hey Bruce, I haven't spawned it in game, but out of curiosity what kind of depth are you geting out of the system, i suppose a minimum of 20m from the pistons, but i'd like to compare how my small grid stacks up against it
Djoks Koks 16 Oct, 2016 @ 11:08am 
this thing is sexy
Girthquake 16 Oct, 2016 @ 10:37am 
They are. Considering the only other person that makes planets that I know is Sektan... And he makes very few.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 10:28am 
Doc's planets are the best
Girthquake 16 Oct, 2016 @ 10:13am 
This vehicle fits in perfectly with the planet Oros. 10/10 would dig a hole and hide in it again.
BeanSlinger419 16 Oct, 2016 @ 8:47am 
i have made a station that has a drill that goes down into the earth (umm its the scientific word for dirt) the drill arm just drilled and the arm unfolded and unfolded intill i dug to deep and my drill arm just dissipeard
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:44am 
...is this not a vehicle with movable arms?
Tom 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:43am 
You should make a land vehicle with movable excavator arms.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:19am 
thx
JC01 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:18am 
Also nice excavator!
JC01 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:18am 
Hmm then i might be bugged too because i have never heard breathing but there still is other sounds
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:17am 
you'd still hear breathing
JC01 16 Oct, 2016 @ 7:16am 
Perhaps realistic sound is on? there is no noise in space unless your on the noise source
MiiTCH 16 Oct, 2016 @ 6:00am 
THANK YOU! I'll try that now! :P, and everywhere else I've read says SE is gpu intensive. hmm... I even asked a guy on YouTube if my dual core cpu would bottleneck my gpu and he said it should be fine. Thanks again I didn't even think about that
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 5:58am 
SE is not very GPU heavy. RAM and CPU is very important. About that sound issue, get a windows update, and update you sound drivers. I remember reading about it on the forums
MiiTCH 16 Oct, 2016 @ 5:56am 
Ok thanks :). I just bought a new gpu so I'm pretty disapointed this is happening now xD lol
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 5:55am 
oh man the bugs are really going crazy lately. sorry i don't know
MiiTCH 16 Oct, 2016 @ 5:54am 
This is awesome. Well done! :P. Btw, my SE has no sound. Anythime I raise the bar and press OK it resets. I've reinstalled DX 3 times already so I don't know what the problem is. Any chance you've come accross this issue before and know a fix?
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 1:39am 
Strange. Does not crash for me on both branches.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 16 Oct, 2016 @ 1:23am 
It was built in dev branc
William Knights 15 Oct, 2016 @ 11:35pm 
Causes my game to crash. From the looks of it might be for developer version of game.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 13 Oct, 2016 @ 7:56am 
pretty stable for the way it's set up (that could mean anything, it was stable for me)
aarno5 13 Oct, 2016 @ 7:55am 
I was just wondering how buggy the creation is.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 13 Oct, 2016 @ 7:53am 
it's moving like a normal wheeled vehicle when you activate the remote control when you sit in the bridge
the entire top part can turn, so i had to do it this way
aarno5 13 Oct, 2016 @ 7:53am 
does it work like a vehicle? or does it work like a grass hopper like most of my rovers do.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 12 Oct, 2016 @ 9:13am 
apparently it is^^
Rothus 12 Oct, 2016 @ 9:12am 
Holly shit, thats a build O.O
ScratchedWinter 11 Oct, 2016 @ 7:14am 
I love taking your designs and tweaking them with the mnods I like to use. Ive spent all week messing with your range of creations, particularly the Eldritch and the Medusa, going to test this one thisafternoon. This will make a greataddition to the world I am building. Aweosme work as always, keep the designs coming pls.
Bruce LeedleLeedleLeedleLee  [author] 11 Oct, 2016 @ 2:19am 
Ah okay^^
Keq 11 Oct, 2016 @ 1:43am
