Space Engineers Survival 2021 (Episode 7) - Finishing Hangar and Rover! [Pertam]

Welcome back to Space Engineers Survival on Pertam! In this episode, we're very busy. We start by welding up the entire hangar. Then we do a small power rework. Then it's on to finishing the rover, and finally we add more refineries! Definitely a work-filled episode if I've ever seen one.

Best practice for brakes/wheel lock is to put your cockpit on your hotbar with the "handbrake" option.

[@dennisklaus7188]

As to Szymon pointed out antennas being ground wires. This is true, antennas and decoys will draw lighting strikes. I would also bet you don't know that if you put the antenna or decoy on a sub grid the damage wont transfer to the main grid. So just put a decoy or antenna on a rotor and have a welder on the main grid that is set to repair the sub grid and then you wont have to really worry about lighting anymore.

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Oooo sneaky idea! Honestly, I kinda want the drama of the death lightning. I can't say I wasnt warned, but so far it hasnt caused much trouble. If it gets to be a problem, I'll try this sneaky subgrid solution :D

[@petrimal]

"Lets get out there!" **destroys something instantly* **gets out to check what was destroyed without pulling the brake* **rover drives away because Andrew built his base on a hill* yep, seems like a typical episode!

[@faguolvlv]

For the support beams in the hangar, weld them partially. Give a nice touch, and does not look so easy to break =) Also, building a Rover, when you have 1 block hole somewhere, you could put a small battery instead of a steel block.

[@szymonteodorczyk8801]

Lightning strikes damage blocks around. Also, I don't know how true it is, but ever since the weather update, I heard that antennas work as grounding wires on houses so they would prevent lightning strikes to bases. BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW WELL OR HOW ACCURATE THIS IS

[@rohncarver3585]

I haven't tried it at all but I've had more than enough of the lightning strikes shooting me out of the damn sky

[@docwild2867]

Antennas work well in a limited range

[@lordsherifftakari4127]

remember = HANDBRAKE on before you exit the vehicle. also lower your top speed on the truck = less prone to flip or have wheels explode when they de-synch from the Voxels and Klang out. for power, using the Windmills. I use 8 block towers spaced 10 blocks apart. at the top, I place a cross of 1 block apiece 1 block down from the top permitting 5 Wind Turbines to be placed that don't interfere with each other creating gobs of power in a compact format. the side turbines are placed sideways pointing away from the tower. my suggestion for defending against Lightning Strikes is to apply the Lightning Rod Mod and place Lightning Rods on the top of each tower protecting it as these Rods act as Decoys to attract lightning to them I highly recommend grabbing the Recycle Battery mod = you get the Power Cells back as Scrap to melt down and remake into new Power Cells. suggestion is using the High Powered Spotlights for the Truck as visibility is good from inside it and really throws light out in front of it much further than the Vanilla ones. visibility is critical when driving about so one would do good to center the cockpit on the front of the vehicle and accessories placed such that they are below the viewpoint when sitting in the seat. you could consider a front mounted Connector piped into the containers so you only have to adjust the front wheels to line up the connection. people often forget that the cockpit Seat has storage under it to stash things. add a Backup Camera above the rear connector to save your hair when backing into your parking space and line up on the connector. production is best right next to the Hangar at the surface level. habitat Module can be built above it leaving only the Med Bay which for maximum protection should be placed underground. I've had far too many Drones Kamikaze themselves through walls and roofs to take out the Med Bay. I also suggest the Smart Targeting 2 Mod to let the turrets fire selectively at targets like offensive components in order to spare a lot of other useful bits for salvage recovery. there is nothing worse than tearing up a base to salvage only to be left with a pile of worthless scrap iron because the turrets blew up all the good stuff inside. especially on Pertam! Salvage is the Law of the Planet. you Keep what you Kill!

[@WerrinLotsuvhats]

I disagree about the lights and other mods. some mods are cool like pve and abandon settlements, but if you add too many mods it takes away from the game and just makes it too easy, and if it's too easy, it'll get boring to play much faster

[@jellymartin1811]

Oh sweet jesus wall of text

[@robbygames9394]

I think what you should do when you want to unlock your gps you should put a satellite into orbit. As well as antennas (like 3 or 4) around your base.

[@jacobktan]

To relaxing to watch at night, I keep falling asleep.

[@jenniferlewis7239]

i am new to this channel and this series is the first videos i have seen of you i think you have a great youtube channel

[@UtopssAKAPJ]

Truck looks cool, think you're right about the window straight up then curved

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Yeah it would definitely look a bit cooler that way I'm thinking.

[@FazekasPK]

I recommend you build some adjustable docking ports. It's easy to build, just a vertical piston with a hinge and connector on top (witch can be small grid, to take up less space), all controlled by a 4button panel. ... so your base can connect to literally any kind of vehicle, that has a connector on it.

[@AndrewmanGaming]

That's a good idea. Maybe we'll put one of those in one of the hangar bays.

[@austinaylworth]

Automatic doors on the hangar = 1000 iq play. But seriously, good stuff again Andrew. I was excited when I saw this go up. Love this series and excited to see the additional mod content! Fun idea, if it's not too much to ask, could you put together a mod pack for the series to share on the steam workshop? I think it'd be cool to be able to play with the same set up you will eventually have. Good job again man!

[@AndrewmanGaming]

I'll have to figure out how to do a modpack, but then sure, I can see if I can get that up.

[@MoZz..]

@@AndrewmanGaming im new to space engineers, would it be possible for you to link the mods you use in your gameplay? the mod that gives you all resurses from storage seems really qol imo.

[@rowdyjoringer612]

"Can I go outside?" *Insta nope* also this video changed from 1mo to 2mo while I was watching it. Happy 2mo release lol

[@jacobktan]

Can't believe I missed this one

[@interestingstuffs101]

"I have 2 options... well I have infinite options i suppose.." 🤣

[@randallvolk8437]

For power, there is a real good mod that adds a black hole generator for power, requiring no reactor components but producing many times a standard reactors power output. There are three mods that make use of gravel. First, adds the gravel reactor giving power from gravel. Second, the gravel sifter allows you to get a slow but steady flow of all ores by filtering them from gravel. And the Third, adds a Gatling gun that uses gravel as ammo. But a well known mod that might be helpful would be the Build and Repair system. Some people say it is for noobs, I say it is no different then having a second person give you a hand.

[@janseidl7029]

Hey man I like the flow od your videos. Also the way you speak... xd I'm from czech republic and there is like no youtube guy making videos like this from one of my favorite games. Glad I found U Andrew and can't wait to next episode. Have a nice day sir 💯

[@WerrinLotsuvhats]

awesome video as always. this series is def on par with the mars series with the elevator and underground base, which was my favorite one so far. I had a good chuckle a few times. the brakes debacle, and the lightning rod parts were funny. also noticed the intense sway to the left when driving the big rover. that's gotta be a pain

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Yeah what's that about? Every rover I build seems to have trim issues...

[@WerrinLotsuvhats]

@@AndrewmanGaming I never noticed it before last night when I started my first world in a year and my last playthrough was rovers only. but I had the same problem too. I was thinking maybe the normal map on the terrain actually had collision or something lmao

[@MightyAssa]

Andrew just be yourself. Love to see how other player design their stuff and how they play SE

[@The_Digital_Samurai]

Build a half slab ramp to park your rover. Like you said they exist. It does prevent brain no worky issues.

[@vfox32]

About 21:00 your Scream was so funny... I laughed so hard xD

[@jedsaxon]

Lightning will always hit antennas or decoys, so I would recommend adding some of those around your base :)

[@orvishana1210]

Great job with your backup parking! I always put a backup camera because I have a hard time with that. I like thos rib/support things in the hangar, I would probably just round off the corners if that makes sense.

[@josemarianoescudero3934]

Man I find your last episode and star seeing the entire serie I love it

[@MikeHoughtonasUnit8720]

yyay up to date. No thanks to youtube making it hard to know u posted

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Lol yeah seems like KZbin's subscriber features have been going down hill for awhile.

[@josephkasmarcik2895]

You can place the wind turbines out the four cardinal directions along the sides of the tower rather then focused on the top and instead have a lightning rod at that top IE a decoy block. This offers full clearance for all your turbines as long as you place at least one block from the center for each. If your not worried about lightning you can put a final turbine at the top for a total of 5 turbines in a pretty small area.

[@moonfurry2520]

Andrew try making a simple big scale rover with a vertical drill on pistons so you can explore the flat lands and drill any ores you find and maybe refine them on the way back to base

[@gunter4155]

Good idea

[@MoZz..]

cool idea

[@Christhulhu]

Mabe spin the Refineries for 180° so the connections at the side are on top and u can build pipes at the ceiling. :)

[@AndrewmanGaming]

That's a really good idea! In editing I was wondering how I was going to connect them with those stairs there. Crazy I thought of digging under the whole structure before considering just flipping the refineries XD

[@Christhulhu]

I cant play survival well i normally just build massive things in creative on space engineers

[@creepercann0n679]

great video man and i loved the custom cockpit idea gave me a few pointers on how to build better XD keep it up

[@keanumaas2227]

I've been building my wind towers like that for a long time! You can even add more wind turbines on the same pillar and build a turret on top

[@AndrewmanGaming]

I think it looks way better than just a single block tower. I wonder though if there is a way to make it look even nicer.

[@keanumaas2227]

@@AndrewmanGaming put the windmills on the sides and use full blocks and slopes to make it look nice

[@seanflynn2507]

oh no, a bit necro, but for the science.. center of gravity, on a wheeled vehicle designed for cargo carrying with tandem axles, is actually suppose to be between the tandem axles. their is a reason semis 5th wheel is over the center of their tandem axles, its to move weight away from the steering wheels. a centered center of gravity is rarely actually used on wheeled vehicles. that includes high end cars since they tend to bias to the rear with a 65/45 ratio. put friction on the drive wheels where you want it, dont put friction on the steering where you dont want it.

[@jarrod752]

You need a tennis ball on a string to align your parking. A light might solve your problem.

[@MrMattkid]

You can place vents on it to make it look like it has a mean grill

[@bristuhan1966]

Late to the party but you can place 5 wind turbines on one tower by placing one block on each side of the tower, one below the top and placing wind turbines perpendicular to the ground, and then placing one more block on top and a wind turbine on top of that block. That will give you over 2000 kW of power per tower.

[@fwipweedapangin5836]

i didn’t know you could change the voice lines. im changing all of mine to insults now.

[@Cm2sligh]

Heres an idea, earlier in the series you came up with the idea of using trucks to move from base to base. I think that's a great idea. And perhaps you could make that a huge thing. With different trailers you can swap out. You could run the desert like the raiders in star wars

[@xixMrepicxix]

Truck may need thrusters to assist in uphill climbing fully loaded

there's a "handbrake" on/off control on the cockpit block

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Thanks for the tip :D

[@nicolamariano745]

parking brake is under the seat controls, not the wheels, if you toggle off the brake possibility to a wheel you won't brake even with the space bar, but only pressing S because you are not breaking (in theory) but you are going bkw

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Thank you for the tip!

[@nicolamariano745]

@@AndrewmanGaming i got another one only in the case in you don'know it: if, in build vision, you press ins+page up it will copy the properties of the thing ... eg: you set up on light of 8 that you have to set in the same way like same color and range,than you press ins+page up... you go to the second light, open build vision and pres ins+page DOWN and it will automatically modify the second light parameters... than you repeat for the other 6

I think the asymetrical industrial truck look slaps. It really looks like it is purely functional, and for whatever reason, I'm all for that stuff. I'm very late with this, but I don't mind being late if I can make someone's day.

[@raybob8238]

brakes are under cockpit controls :D. voice warning wise... i absolutely hate them. there's no way to get rid of them other than by muting the whole game. if you or anyone could create a mod that replaces them with complete "silence" i (and probably everyone else) would love it.

[@AndrewmanGaming]

That would actually be extremely easy. A mod that sets the voices to just silent files would probably work. I'll need to remember how to actually do that stuff though.

[@martinnash9822]

Put the cockpit on toolbar it has a handbrake option buddy

[@MikeHoughtonasUnit8720]

Yeah Testa's are safe if they're not crashing into things.

[@AndrewmanGaming]

Lol true. That was horrifying when I heard about the one that drove right into a turning truck a few years ago. The sad reality is that with all programs, most bugs don't show up until someone triggers them with their unique use case. And of course if the program operates a car, any bug could be deadly.

Are you going to build a stationary drill system ? Much faster

I honestly have no idea how to mod the game. I got a few pointers from Lucas once (the guy who made reavers and stuff) and he walked me through making a voice mod.

[@AndrewmanGaming]

@@byandevenouser Here are a few reasons that could be causing the problem: 1) Is the connector attached to the place you want to move it with conveyors? 2) Are there any sorters that might restrict your ability to move things? 3) Are all of your machines and connectors powered? 4) Are you on a small ship? (If so, you have to worry about large vs small connections. Some blocks can only fit through large connections)

Teslas have great safety ratings..if you ignore the fact that they spontaneously catch fire, and the fact that the "self-driving" software is so overhyped and underdeveloped that many people have died because they literally think the car can drive itself.

Haha sounds like it. I was more impressed with the way they right themselves when flipped because of the very low center of gravity.
