How to use the XU-1
This is copied/pasted from the Authors comment, with some visual edits by me. i moved it hear for ease of acess. Any issues regarding this build is directed to them, and not here.


1.
  • Take control over the drone`s remote control
  • Get to toolbar no.1
  • press 4 (control screen camera)
  • navigate to setup mining job and select it
  • in that sub-menu you can set the excavation dimensions

2.
Small ejectors suppose to eject the stone so it doesn`t add the weight and bring it back to base.

3.
The sorters split stone from the rest of the ore so it(stone) goes to the ejectors instead of on-board containers.

Great Minner. I love the smoothness of XU-1. am new to this game. do I need to load script? I go in camera (4) but am unable to use 1,2, or 3 to program the XU-1. Am exited to use this Minner

You need to be in creative mode. F10 blue prints/open browser/search icon/in the browser drop down menu click on script. search PAM. NOTE: in the options menu of the game advanced settings allow script needs to be active as well as experimental

IS PAM a separate Workshop item?

I am not sure why when I create the miner I am able to do everything but when the mining is done, the miner returns to the dock and then I am never able to see it again when I use the "K" key to get into the menu to remote to it.
