An underground base gives you a lot of defense against reavers and protects all your production/ medical blocks. You can used build and repair to carve a perfect cave in the side of a mountain, and they can only attack you from the front of the base.

Your dependance on build and repair makes this such a hard watch. It would have taken literally seconds to empty the cargo containers manually but just destroying them caused you so many issues. 🤣 The reason you could not steal the ship was potentially due to hidden blocks and definitely due to the fact you failed to grind the seats under 'HACK' (53:59 you can see neither chair was done correctly)

Looking back at it you’re totally right, I should’ve just done it manually 😂 and ahh I see, so that’s the reason I couldn’t take over the grid?
@matt.pinder7 ай бұрын
@@ResearchMonkey437 Not grinding any of the specified blocks to below the 'HACK' bar, will not allow you to capture the ship. I'm not saying it was just both chairs; there may have been another hidden remote control. But not doing the seats correctly definitely didn't help you

There's a script for build & repair on the steam workshop you can place into a programmable block to link it with assemblers so if they are trying to build something and don't have the parts the missing stuff will get added to the production queue. Will also work with multiples B&R's and assemblers. Easiest way to save a drillhead while adjusting pistons is to use merge blocks to anchor it then detach the rotor head. Tweak the pistons or whatever get the rotor back into place and reconnect before turning off the merge block to free the head. Lazier option is the Drill & Fill which lets you set an area which will slowly get drilled out or filled in, good for carving out right angled tunnels and rooms underground.

[QoL] Production Quota! Try this mod it works great with the build n repair mod. You can set your assembler to produce a certain quantity of components. An example is say you want a 100 steel plates on hand. This mod will always make sure you have 100 steel plates in your cargo inventory.

THIS. Keeps the fighting away from your precious base. NPCs will typically move towards and hover over the nearest target. My MO is to then have some sort of strike craft on stand-by to respond while the NPCs are busy with my off-grid turrets. They're usually up high about 1 or 2 km from my main base

'Everything bad is happening at once!' Welcome to Space Engineers. Your processing room is a good example of why you should always try to leave space around your equipment. It helps you to troubleshoot if nothing else. As to your storage issues: You might want to filter out some of the stone and eject it. You have more than enough materials and what you will get from the Stone is a pittance by comparison.

something you can setup, if you go into your assembler settings/control panel, and you can setup to have a specific amount for each parts, and it will keep the base inventory to that amount automatically. Also, when your in safe zones, theres no damage, you can ram into the trade ship at full speed with no damage. Also i believe if you hover over the ships in the store, it gives you a breif description of said ship.

build a small ship with cargo and add several build and repair set for grind to takeover and grind neutral, and let the B&R bots grind the ships that way you don't lose reputation with other factions, once it's be ground down, u can set B&R to repair ship and then it's yours.. also like i mentioned about last video.. set ur turrets to shoot missiles aswell, would of saved ur base from most of destruction u suffered in this video also.. "Nanobot Build and Repair System Queuing / Display / Scripting" Script from workshop by dummy08 and set it up, doing so anything the build and repair bots need, the assemblers will auto queue, therefore you don't need to manually keep queuing build jobs.
