Survive with me #16 - Mining ship build tutorial (Space Engineers)

Hello everyone! Welcome back to a new series, in this series of videos, I will be taking you through the full vanilla Space Engineers survival process. Teaching the basics all the way through to advanced game mechanics to turn you into a true Space Engineer.
My aim with the series is to easily introduce new players to the game via a walkthrough guide of it's features. If you have any questions or need help, leave a comment and I'll get back to you when I can!
If you enjoyed, please like comment and subscribe to support the channel :)
In this episode we look at creating a fully operational space mining vessel from scratch.

I'd also recommend setting up some cameras on your connectors so you can see where the connector is pointing at. Also, be sure to include a remote control, that way you can set the ship to autopilot.

No idea why you have Abba as an intro, but I fuck with it. Thank you for showing me how survival works, after 600 hours I had never given survival a go until watching your videos, cheers

dang you make it look so simple and your ships end up being so sexy. just with your event controller for your cargo full you will need to turn the and gate on or it will go on when just one of them is full.

[@nycos84]

hello you can add a sorter to throw out stone with the back connecter

[@st0rm4g3dd0n]

I believe for your cargo indicator light, if you don't add the second action in the event controller to turn it off when the cargo threshold is lower, it won't turn off/reset automatically when you fill and then unload the cargo.

[@BrianRonald]

Additionally, without "AND Gate" checked, it will turn the light on the moment any of those cargo blocks are filled, even if there's plenty of space left elsewhere.

[@kyleroberts3562]

you can just have one slot used but will need another one to turn it off and on I do it to turn thruster on when it gets to a % full so I fly over on minimal thrusters then have another one to turn the extra thrusters and gyros off when I connect to the connector

awesome build wish i could do them that quick

[@drmaserlie5571]

Love you

[@eshfwog]

pretty sure the normal conveyer caps are also non dlc, so people can use those instead of, or along side the piston heads some places suite one more than the other

[@jjcraft9099]

They are iirc

[@xxbongobazookaxx7170]

The small hydro thruster cone is around 2.5 blocks at full power iirc

[@otterf104]

Do you know if the paint gun mod is on xbox space engineers

[@Sabren26]

Hey Lunar, I do not think the small hydrogen tanks allow items to conveyor through. I have to double check, but I think I have had problems with it before.

[@BrianRonald]

It's normal small conveyor rules. They allow all ores and ingots, and any small components. Bottles are too large to fit, as are most components.

[@tryme1804]

Brian is right, also the small grid large hydrogen tanks use small conveyors only

[@Sabren26]

@@tryme1804 I know this, I just recall having trouble with a miner filling only the drills and would not fill the cargo, with the small hydrogen tanks set up in between. I remember getting so frustrated I now put them out of the pathing between drills and cargo. LOL

[@jjcraft9099]

@@Sabren26the H2 Tanks allow all small conveyor items through them, so your issue was likely elsewhere in the system. Potentially you had a sorter blocking the drills from moving ore to other cargo blocks, or there was an issue with the conveyoring itself tho

[@Sabren26]

@@jjcraft9099 I think it was a mod doing it. I went back and took the mods out and it allowed ore to pass through. I am currently going through them to see which one it was.
