Connect Storage things up?
Hello, i was wondering if this is how its supposed to be? I cant seem to hook up medium storage boxes, well i have 3x boxes on this vehicle, 2 of them are connected by bieng next to eachother, and the 3rd i wanted to hook up using those tubes,, but the tubes dont work,, i have tried the 90 degree angles and the boxes you see in this pic

What have you tried to transfer.

I press F at one of the containers, then i can put ores and materials in 2 of the 3 containers. the last one i have to go around and press F on that one. the two who is connected are side by side, with the large door connecting them. they small tube is a atempt to connect the last one up.

Not sure why it didn't work in the first place for you since it appears to be powered (green on the corners of the tubes instead of red) but keep in mind that some components are considered too large to pass through a small conveyor tube. You should be able to pass all ore and ingot types no problem.

90 degree and boxes should work identically. Conveyor box is just a conveyor "tube" with openings on all sides for connecting several tubes together, it is not actually required to move things.

I died, dropping a large stone over myself in a tunnel... And now, the vehicle will not move. I can turn left&right and make the wheels turn, I can do everything but make the vehivle movv. idk if its stuck or if its cause i died,, but It stands on ice witch is flat.

Is the parking break on?

I think you got the autopilot glitch, Press shift or alt (dont remember wIch one)+f10 click enable creative tools. Ctrl+c then ctrl+v and left click in a suite location.

Note that you need to have copy/paste on in advanced world settings.

I just restarted the game and it moved just fine! ;D;D

Sometimes vehicles act like the parking brake is on or safety lock engaged despite you never actually enabling either. If a vehicle refuses to move, it can generally be fixed by toggling the parking brake/safety lock on and off.

How do you toggle parking break? I was very supprised that the wheels could turn,, i thought hard about how to be able to stear... haha

I have not played this game since it was released,,, lolz

Parking brake can be toggled in any seat/cockpit. You can also drag the seat/cockpit to your hotbar, and in the dropdown list select "parking brake" to toggle it that way.

I have yet to find Platinum, but there are some new thrusters! They are weak, but ateast its better than drilling by hand ;D I kept adding engines, and it barely would lift,, but then i realized i needed to add more reactors ;D Steam overlay F12 refuses to do screenshots,,, i use greenshot then... haha maybe F12 does something in msi afterburner,,, =P

You cant use ions on planets anyway, if thats what you are going to do.

I went for Atmospheric Thrusters, as im in a Atmosphere,, seemd like a good call but i dont know. But they are very weak,,,, Its like its not even worth making small shipss,, i need a larger ship as this one cant fly.... I filled it to the brim with ice and stone,, 3 containers + some in the pipes,, and its powerless,, no controls even shakes it now...

you need more thrusters to carry that much, maybe 4 times as much as you have.
