[Mexpex] Heavy Mining Drill [stable/dev]

Description
Heavy Mining Drill

This heavy industrial mining drill is made to be used on larger mining ships.
Its designed with great durability and deep space mining expeditions in mind.

Large:
Size:5x5x7
Weight: ~400 000kg
High Durability

Small:
Size:15x15x21
Weight:
(Solved by SE update)Low Durability

Small XL(for crazy builds)
25x25x35
Weight: ~400 000kg
Low Durability(bug?)

Lod -Yes
Survival - Yes
Dx11 - Yes
Dx9 - Yes

Max speed to survive crash
Large Block: 25m/s (highes ive tested)
SmallBlock: 20m/s (havnt tested higher or on server)



Cost and weight - It sure cost alot and there by gets a huge weight but its durable what will withstand to bump into asteroids. You dont want to arrive to a location and by misstake destroy the drill as the first thing you do.( will do test to compare durability)

Drill radius - I wanted to go for a kinda realistic size and made it a tiny bit larger

Storage capacity - In the config for the drill there is no option to set a storage size. But i think the size is detement by the size of the drill since the Earthbreaker is larger and got more cargo space.


Future mining themed equipment:
Cargo Container
Low profile sportlight
Refinery
Larger Drill with a unique feature

To do
Better Collision model

The energy requirements should be increased for balance. 2 kW is like a toaster, 400 tonnes rotating smashing rocks, 20 MW is more reasonable.

For some reason it seems it's not working with PAM ? I can't start a job. Does anyone know a fix ? Or an alternative big drill that work with PAM ?

@Static
it probably comes from a time before the warfare 1 and warfare 2 updates with its changes to how dmg is done to blocks if i go for the time of the last update.

So i just tested crashing into an asteroid with the 5x5 LG drill at 19.77m/s, and it did not live. poofed right off. so i dont know how the "Max speed to survive crash
Large Block: 25m/s (highes ive tested)" came to be

Drill now acts like a normal drill. No longer has a large radius.
