Description
An all-in-one solution that automatically mines and sends 1 resource type to inventory. The Fabricator makes GSO compressed Resource Blocks which are sucked up by the included SCU.

This model has built in bubbles and batteries, for damage resistance (not necessary - can be removed in creative mode). Weapons can be added with an AI cab too, for self defence.

Must be within about 500m of player to be loaded in and processing resources. The auto-miners will catch up if they have been unloaded from the world for a while, though. They ramp up from 1 chunk every 30 seconds to one ever 10s.

Each resource seam yields 960 chunks, so at 24 chunks per 'brick', that's 40 resource blocks.

@Qwerty080 - I may be misremembering, it's been a couple years, but is it possible to use Q and E in build beam, to strafe anyway? (Or is that just a suggestion I made to the devs, perhaps...?)

tip: change your control mode to "hovercraft" will allow you to strafe when putting the machine in place.

@coolthor2004 - there's a check box next to the "Craft" button, then lets you "Repeat" the item endlessly. Definitely important to click this (I often forget.)

The old 4xAuto-miners should be just fine, still. Same configuration, unchanged game mechanics. Still fiddly to get them in place, with all stems down, does need flat terrain.

love your additions to steam workshop, do the 4x autominers still work? I cant get a green circle to place them. Thanks for uploading so many good things
