Description
The -Drill PUP- Elite Drill Tank is STILL...a Drill Tank. A Really good Drill Tank. It Drills...Rocks...Really Well!

As Requested the Elite Version has added a constructor and fridge allowing for on the go processing of ore and cold BEERS!

A big fan of the Drill Seargent and the DHMT I wanted to make something a bit different but maintain the same consistencies as the greats. After much testing I was able to drill deep and negotiate my way out of deep holes easily.

Lots of thrust capability!

Can be upgraded at Level 25 with T2 Drills for a ridiculously awesome -Drill PUP-

Rear of Tank has twice the hover engines as the front so lean back a bit when reversing out of holes to achieve vertical lift. Drill ship Piloting is challenging at first. Use the O key to center yourself. It will also lower the back of the vessel.

Ensured Center of Mass balancing.

Added an o2 Station Constructor and Fridge for Survivability.

2 Harvest boxes and 2 Fuel Tanks to help you stay out a bit longer.

ALL THRUSTERS EXPOSED FOR FORWARD PATCH COMPATABILITY



Please Enjoy! Post comments or critique!

Legacy are for older versions of the game right?

Still my favorite early drilling machine! Replaced my go to of the Ladybug and Ladybig. Great layout that allows a really good viewpoint while mining.

That’s awesome Ralgimanek! Never tried the Titans with this. Glad it’s working out for you :)

I love this so much. I tried a lot of the others, but they didn't work for me, I tried them in creative and I kept getting stuck and had to get out and hand drill my self out.

This little guy does what I really want, digging out deposits and the INSIDE of crashed vessels. I have wasted so much time trying to dig out everything so I can get all the loot. After I got this I spent as much time digging out 3 crashed parts as I did just getting to the cores.

The only time it took me more than 10 seconds to wiggle my self free was when I opened up a 1 block high and 2 wide to sneak into a thruster pod, and it was more that a dirt speck was making it self way bigger.
You do have to be lined up well to get it through the 1X2 slot, but if you open up a 2x2 you can waltz right in.

This whole collection should be in everbodies inventory everything works so well.

Hey Seven! Thanks! If you are looking for a harvestr too i would recommend the -Drill PUP- MUT in my workshop...it has both!

I just started playing today and after browsing lots of builds. I enjoy yours the most.

Do you think that its practical to swap out the drills for harvestors to grab wood on the way to mining nodes?

Thanks Overlord! Ill look into it

Suggest replacing the front, drill-side engines with thruster jets and add a third on top. This modification helps make getting the HV out of the holes much simpler.

Otherwise, I love this design, along with the multi-tool.
