An extremely realistic and highly inventive design. High amounts of creativity and ingenuity are required for such amazing creations so kudos to the creator.
That's a very ingenious design, by far the best i ever seen, and it mimics a tunnel-borer machine. One flaw however: no way to transfer stuff OFF the ship to your refinery, no connectors.
this ship only works for destroying asteroids using the right click function if you want this for mining ore you're out of luck I made a exact copy of this ship and it does not work in survival for ore mining still a cool concept though
gerpar250 Well this one is already making the game laggy, so let alone a bigger one. SE has some serious performance issues, especially with mining. And now that planets are out, it's putting computers on their knees. Mine has 8 gigs of RAM and can run most recent games with high settings, and yet I can't run SE smoothly.
What this machine reminds me of is Tunnel Boring Machine used to make subway's and tunnels in mountains for trains and automobiles. Incredible. Well built.
that is way to fucking cool, you could even use leftover wholes at deep bases inside the asteroid with a wicked ass tunnel leading it. dude, i must know how u made this!
***** Thanks. This ship is obsolete since the andvanced rotor came out. You can find an updated model on the workshop if you're interested (steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=331552338&searchtext=steinbrecher), but it's not working very well though. I may create a new version for the arrival of panels, maybe.
***** Grinders would work better, plus you could salvage a whole base worth of materials. Star Core Neat ship man. now that they have the advanced toolbars, you should set a hotkey for the engines to idle at about 10-15kn, that way you don't have to throttle the thrust like that. It should auto through the asteroid (or planet). If you get a bunch of shifting while its on auto, turn off tool shake, or slap a bunch of gyroscopes on it.
+setogod ]-[ That movie screwed with me so bad when I was a kid... Someone should rebuild that drill from "The Core" and see how well it actually works. (Might need a need front end though)
So far i haven´t seen a better ship!! It´s absolutely amazing and looks very realistic to me...reminds me of Machines drilling to Zion :D (or rather O.o)
Mount one of these things onto a large ship and you can turn any sizeable asteroid into a well-camouflaged and well-protected base in a matter of minutes.
few recommendations to improve this a little bit 1 put thrusters in back to override so they keep speed around 1-2m/s and hotkey them on off so you can quickly stop them if something goes wrong 2 max out gyroscope override. this will make it so even if you move mouse as fast as you can the ship will not spin around. it can still move up down left right forward and back but not in any other way.
good job dude I just got the game and I want to be able to make stuff like that I mean you hollowed out an entire asteroid in seconds takes me more like 20 minutes XD and that's with the top grade stuff xD
+MakoRuu What if they have a medium sized transport vehicle with mining capabilities. They could drill into the enemy's stronghold and attack from there. Classic tactic used by star wars droids and Warhammer 40k Orks. Inspiration is everywhere.
extra armour plating? maybe get rid of a couple of containers to loose weight for more engine effect, or just to counter the weight of the extra armor. also hitting their blindspot. it's unlikely that anyone would have turrets ALL over an asteroid. it's just not that easy to upply that many rounds to that many guns
Very effective but just one big problem : Reactors inside the ship? The same with reactors outside will be more realistic. It is a good ship. I work about the same kind to drill asteroid and fill cargos with materials.
Yeah I'm not a fan of internal reactors either, but there isn't any other place on the outside where I could have put them. As long as there is enough space between the thruster and a block in front of it, the thruster doesn't damage anything, so it's acceptable.
And I add a note : How to take all materials send on space by drilling? If you think about that, with just one drilling, you can kill your near station and all people with meteorite rain. Look your drilling from outside your ship when you see your drill eat the asteroid to understand.
Ba Sing Se will fall.
That connector design is pretty damn clever.
I'll have to keep this design in mind when I build my deployable planet core driller
That is a very smart drill head...
what you have here good sir is a bona fide TBM tunnel boring machine. well done. large scale mining operations will never be the same.
that ship has sharp teeth, good work. i have just got the game and with only 7 hours in game i can only dream of building something like that.
I've always loved tunnel bores! This is a work of art!
currently making a scaled down version in my survival with a friend. this is so cool.
Found it in wrokshop!!!
"Asteroid Drill - Steinbrecher [no mods]"
That's what your looking for.
An extremely realistic and highly inventive design. High amounts of creativity and ingenuity are required for such amazing creations so kudos to the creator.
I've been playing this game as long as you have and this is pure nostalgia
Of all the mining ships i have seen this is the most realistic looking. Great work mate.
6 people who disliked don't like "slick holes". Awesome build man, well done
This ship is amazing, can you please upload it to the steam worshop?
wow, amazing idea about using connector like that
Incredible, look at that perfect smooth cylinder.
by far one of the best mining ships to date, and fast too
Idk about anyone else but this was wayyyy too satisfying lol
friggin awesome, like the big tunnel borers
That's incredible.
What if you drilled a massive hole into an asteroid, then created a tube shaped base to secure inside the hole with landing gears.
In vanilla you can't operate with asteroids this way. You have to put a block into asteroid and than use any type of intersection.
impressive design and very well thought out idea !
That's a very ingenious design, by far the best i ever seen, and it mimics a tunnel-borer machine.
One flaw however: no way to transfer stuff OFF the ship to your refinery, no connectors.
Impressive, I was hoping you'd show off the spoils though...
this ship only works for destroying asteroids using the right click function if you want this for mining ore you're out of luck I made a exact copy of this ship and it does not work in survival for ore mining still a cool concept though
Now that's well made drill well done well done
It looks like a 12v car socket.
Really cool!
Best mining ship, so far. Very impressive.
Holy ship! That is awesome
Hmm, how well would it work against large ships?
gerpar250 Depends whether they are made of stone :)
Star Core *Cough cough* I think you mean...
Depends on whether they are made of stone ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
gerpar250 Attach grinders.
We must have a planet sized one of these, or at least a moon sized one.

This is insanely cool, nice job
Fantastic ship, love it!
WOAH. That's pure awesomeness!
What this machine reminds me of is Tunnel Boring Machine used to make subway's and tunnels in mountains for trains and automobiles. Incredible. Well built.
Thats what i thought too when i saw it, I was thinking "Space freeway tunneling machine"
i was thinking the same thing once i saw the face of the drill head
Vanewolf29 yeah it's called a mole. Pretty amazing
that is way to fucking cool, you could even use leftover wholes at deep bases inside the asteroid with a wicked ass tunnel leading it. dude, i must know how u made this!

hmm, when i get a rig capable of playing without dreadful fps, ill look into it. computers aint cheap lol

the new advanced spinning bits that can connect to connectors means the head can transport to the body while spinning now.
I`m in love. Just started with that game, but I look at ppl projects and feel awesome :)
Love it! That's a well-made miner!
that was awesome, great job man!
Real nice ship man. I was thinking about a planet drill too, but your ship is way better than my tries ;)
Ngl, this thing is pretty damn impressive...
wow this would be cool for the planet update also reminds me of the film the core or core
+setogod ]-[ That movie screwed with me so bad when I was a kid... Someone should rebuild that drill from "The Core" and see how well it actually works. (Might need a need front end though)
this is absolutely genius.
Damn that is one sick build. Very nice. Just played it a few hours so i hope i will be able to build something similar :)
You, Sir, have way more patience in building than I, Lol, amazing creation!
dear God it's beautiful, might use something similar once I get this game on pc
way easier to do with adv rotor now, great idea with connectors
interesting design; you could have used the grouping feature to make it easier to empty things, but overall, nice proof of concept.
So far i haven´t seen a better ship!! It´s absolutely amazing and looks very realistic to me...reminds me of Machines drilling to Zion :D (or rather O.o)
Amazing, much more efficient than the flat mining matrixes some people make, unless this one is used in "god-mode" and the ship is unbreakable.
This video used amaze, it was very effective!
Wow dude amazing work!!!
Holding down the right mouse equipped with Drill destroys the rocks instead of collecting them.
Mount one of these things onto a large ship and you can turn any sizeable asteroid into a well-camouflaged and well-protected base in a matter of minutes.
"Steinbrecher" ^^ Classic German Engineering seen! Nice Job Landsmann
Upload this blueprint to the workshop please i want to have Multiple amounts of these things for my guild and Planit crack all deadspace style
cooles design, macht schöne runde löcher! :D
holy shit that was fast. break setting huh, pretty cool.
few recommendations to improve this a little bit
1 put thrusters in back to override so they keep speed around 1-2m/s and hotkey them on off so you can quickly stop them if something goes wrong
2 max out gyroscope override. this will make it so even if you move mouse as fast as you can the ship will not spin around. it can still move up down left right forward and back but not in any other way.
Even with new materials coming out I can see this miner that would half to take a lot of updates for it to go out of service
This is amazing
really fun to watch these videos like this... lol it makes me laugh to see its effectiveness
good job dude I just got the game and I want to be able to make stuff like that I mean you hollowed out an entire asteroid in seconds takes me more like 20 minutes XD and that's with the top grade stuff xD
That's AWESOME :0
this is just insane!! :-D thanks dude
id like to see someone do this to a planet
GLORIOUS!!!!
Great job! :D
Oh man that music is so bloody familiar =D
Schön gemacht
incredible!
Amazing!
I never seen barely of the picture that drill will drill through I want to see it
really good work :)
Coolest and most efficient miner i've seen yet, definitly deserves a like.Edit: Are you german? Greetings from Austria anyway. ;)
Think of the combat capabilities ramming a capital class with this. You would need a lot more thrusters though.
That is a beast
Masterpiece
*Nice, like a Worm*
thats coolest thing i ever saw is it on workshop?
Nicely Made! :D
congratulations! great ship! but the ore is lost?
It depends on which mouse button you mine with. But maybe it has changed, I haven't played for a while.
Just wow!
This is kick ass
Amazing Ship! Can you upload it to steam workshop?
There are advanced rotors now that have a conveyor belt in them.
You Guys Are Fucking Genius!!
I would love to see your inventory after a drill like this
incredibly effective...
Can you do a video drill through a plant ? And is that possible?
You could use this to hollow out a huge asteroid and build your base inside.
+MakoRuu You know what I like about bases in asteroids? If you are the attacker, you can mine your way into their base and kill them all.
A big enough asteroid would provide adequate defense, I imagine.
+MakoRuu What if they have a medium sized transport vehicle with mining capabilities. They could drill into the enemy's stronghold and attack from there. Classic tactic used by star wars droids and Warhammer 40k Orks. Inspiration is everywhere.
Plus with the new tool tier system you could arm those infiltrators with elite weapons and makeshift bombs.
extra armour plating?
maybe get rid of a couple of containers to loose weight for more engine effect, or just to counter the weight of the extra armor. also hitting their blindspot. it's unlikely that anyone would have turrets ALL over an asteroid. it's just not that easy to upply that many rounds to that many guns
Impressive :)
Did you have any assistance in building this? seems like a very complicated project to tackle alone
Would you be able to put that TBM on the workshop?
Mind blowing....
Very effective but just one big problem : Reactors inside the ship? The same with reactors outside will be more realistic. It is a good ship. I work about the same kind to drill asteroid and fill cargos with materials.

Wunderbar komerad!
So damn cool!!!
That thing is horrific. You could mine the moon with that xD
And I add a note : How to take all materials send on space by drilling? If you think about that, with just one drilling, you can kill your near station and all people with meteorite rain. Look your drilling from outside your ship when you see your drill eat the asteroid to understand.
Is there a tutorial on this miner i really like that ship.
