Hello 907firestorm thanks for the question. sounds like the connector has throw out on. hit 6 on hotbar 1 to turn it off or on. or nafigate to the connector on the consol Panel and turn it off. let me know if you have any further question. hope you have fun.

Is there a way to stop the ship from ejecting ore? I am starting to really enjoy it, but for some reason it just ejects ore every time I mine any.

Hello Master B thank you for the question. First check if scripts are enabled in the wolrd your plaing in. then make sure the programmable block with "LCD2" in the name is on. check if there is a group titled "Cargo {Argo}" if not selct all cargo contailers, drills and connector and save them in this group this should fix it. let me know if you need any further help.

I cant seem to get the Cargo LCD to indicate any ore in my hold, just stays zero all the time. Any ideas?

Hello GuillermoTsc, thanks for the question. the Argo does not have a ejector/sorter.
the Small miners like ajax are fitted with a ejector/sorter system.

Pam was in control in that story below :D
I was watching the first run to make sure it was ok

I have 3 Satyrs running around in the server at the moment. At one point we had 10 Argos at 2 sites. Later 2 got taken to planet 26 along side a larger mining ship of my own design.


I use PAM all the time. I was planning to add PAM and then I saw it already had it. lol

Numbered ships is not a bad idea. I don't need it but some may want it. I have a copy of the blueprint set to be number 01 and the antenna Argo 01 so when I print more I just change the 1 on each screen and in the antenna name so I can see them coming and going and know which is which.

I hope you have a great day too

Hello stedo thank you for your comment and sharing this little story. glad you the argo this much. I think its a great little ship and easy and cheap to replace to. I will check out the Hexadecapus. let me know if ther is any thing you need. have you tryed the PAM system for this ? i love haing 2-4 miners flying around like bees and carring ores to the base. I was thinking of publishing Numberd versions of this Blueprint. So you can use multiple ships of the same type easy. would you like that? have a great day

I Think Evilking had a bug, I had this ship set up in a mine shaft and on the first run it hit a platform with the drill on its way back to home, it turned many ways I thought it would crash but then it was straight and docked lol (Not a fault I just didn't allow enough room) I was impressed

But that is a side point. that is not why I am here.

Hallo DerMakrat Danke for this ship. I have now used it a few times to start my worlds and I even still use it late game. When I need a little more of something. Of course I know my bigger mining ships can get it easy but I like having ships flying around. Especially beautiful little ships like these

I can make medium to large mining ships (search for Hexadecapus if you want to try one) but I can't make a small mining ship as good as this.
I am using the Satyr too.

Both great work. I love how you can number them too. :D

Hello Evilking, sorry to hear that. I have not encountered that problem. But here are some tipps for fixing that. It could be that the craft was over weight limit. Note that Ingots and Components can be heavier then ore. make sure to not get above 50000kg total weight. Make sure your ship is levled with the ground when turning. it cant hover in the air when roled to either side more then 30°. it could also be a bug with the thrusters try turning them off and on or unpowering or powering the hole ship. check if any battery is damaged or has no charge or is set to recharge. wehen power consumption is above 37 % when hovering there is probably one of the above the reason for the crash. Let me know how your doing. alternativly try a nother miner.
