Largely Unemployed has his automated miner ships working just fine on his playthrough. He calls them tardigrades, they mine downwards by tbagging the ore-veign.
Yes i have seen that method however there is no way to detect the ore so no way of knowing that you're not digging through the center of the planet ! We need Keen to allow the sensors to detect ores :(
@@MozoTyce1 ah, i see. Would be interesting to dig through to Europa’s version of china though, as in the kids’ stories i was fed, half a century ago 😊
@@professortrog7742 "Highway To Fried Rice" hehe. I have actually developed a method of detection but it's too cumbersome for a ship and involves sorters and event controllers - maybe a future series 🤣
@@MozoTyce1 Im sure there is a way to do it with the other new block, the event controller. Or maybe its just with 2 timers, as i usually use the rotary airlock these days, its been a while since i have done an actual airlock myself. Technology really does make things too easy doesn't it, means you forget how to do things for yourself. Maybe i should just start a game with no mods, see how i get on. LOL
@@cabbageplays6710 I like to swap and change the mods for each game i play, then i also change them mid game to add different challenges but i never rule out using (or at least trying) most mods as long as they don't break the game.
instead of fiddling with the airlock, there is a rotary airlock door mod that is compact and simplifies the whole process. One of my favorite mods.
@@csorgb05 yup I have that mod but sometimes you just want to keep things closer to vanilla 🤔
Hi! For the miner it's an old script called 'autominer learner' you could see on the moon's tutorial level, and it is used for autopilot too.
I'll take a look at that not seen it before.

Hey bud, have you ever looked at the Rotary Airlock mod, saves so much time and space.
Yes it looks very neat, i was determined to find a way to make my 'one sensor' idea work though :)

That marker isn’t necessarily the centre of the ore deposit - it’s random
True but i wandered away in each direction until the Iron marker disappeared and placed a block at each point so i should be somewhere near the edges.
