Description
(CV CPU Tier 4, Class 2, Unlock Level 25, (Reforged Eden and Vanilla)

Primary roles: Helios MSC Module, Mining, Salvaging, Storage, Production, Shield, Warp, Defense

Update 7/13/2024 - Added Plutus-M2 RE2 version as an unlisted workshop post. You can find it here:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3288609089


Update 3/11/21 - Removed "3" from the ammo bay LCD. No other changes were made.

The Plutus-M2 Module is the Plutus-M1's bigger brother designed as an industrial space miner module meant to dock to a standard module bay on the Helios-MSC. This version is for both Vanilla (ready with no changes) and Reforged Eden (needs 1 basic and 2 improved CPU cores added as well as upgrading the warp core to the advanced version). The M2 offers a lot of added function over the M1. This includes 4x320 Harvest storage, multi-turret, 4 adv constructors, 4 small constructors, T2 shield, warp drive(Recommend to upgrade to adv. warp drive in Reforged Eden), and increased defense. It will dock to the Helios-MSC just like any other module in a standard module bay.

Survival features

The Plutus-M2-Module comes with 12 mining drills in optimal layout, 1 multi-turret, 4x320K harvest controllers, 24K ammo storage, 4 Advanced Constructors, 4 small constructors, front and rear pilot seats, med station, o2, fridge, 2 passenger seats, hardened steel hull, 4 rocket turrets, 4 flak turrets, 3 minigun turrets, and heavy thrust power and agility. The many constructors are meant to process ore, fuel, and pentaxid in the field. This ship is not designed to land on planets as none of it's standard functions such as mining or salvaging would work on planets.

Offense and Defense

The ship was built with hardened steel, comes with 4 rocket turrets, 4 flak turrets, 3 minigun turrets, T2 shield, and 24K ammo storage. It is not meant for combat, only to fend off possible drone attacks in the field. Also it has plenty of thrust power for high speed and agile space mining. Also the ship holds a lot of fuel for long mining operations.

Features Summary:

1. For Vanilla and Reforged Eden (RE needs some CPU blocks added. Info LCD in the ship)
2. Hardened Steel hull, T2 shield, warp core
3. 4X320K harvest storage, 4 Advanced Constructors, 4 small constructors, 4 cargo boxes
4. 4x Rocket, 4x Flak, and 3 minigun turrets, 1 multi turret, 24K ammo storage
5. Fridge, Med station, o2, Wifi, detector, 2 passenger seats, 2 pilot seats (front and back)
6. Plenty of thrust power and fuel tanks for high speed and agile space mining.
7. Standard sized module meant for the Helios-MSC or compatible creations.
8. The Plutus-M1 bigger more powerful brother.
9. Mining lights (P menu control)

Please see the Helios-MSC module collection for links to the Helios-MSC (both Reforged Eden and Vanilla versions) as well as a ton of modules by myself and many other authors. Link at top of post.

I hope you enjoy!

Notes: The M2 has a docking cockpit and a mining cockpit. You will not have access to the mining drills unless in the mining cockpit. The mining cockpit also has more forward thrust when used. The docking cockpit is for docking to the a module bay using LCD guildlines in 1st person view. The mining cockpit also can work in 1st person.

@OatmealMan Might be a bit late... but if you remove the landing gear on the Plutus, and extend it out by 1 block, this CV will mount with the Supremacy. I just did this with no "issues". Although there is a 3/4 block gap between the door of the Plutus to the door of the Supremacy. I added a ramp to the Supremacy side to bridge this gap, although jumping it is quite easy if you're on a planet.

Confirmed RE limit is now 10 laser drills. It may not be ideal layout, but remove a couple and try to reconfigure them. That's all the debug shows.

skshroyer, just about to test in a creative server. I'll let you know what the debug says. I imagine it is the number of lasers though. That or maybe there are the old solar panels or capacitors.

I'm curious what has changed to cause the block limit issue. I haven't played for a few years, but this was always my CV miner and I never had issues spawning it. Now it seems the only way to get it in a single player game is sbp. Has the mining laser limit been lowered?

Exceeds the standard limits of RE.

Hello Jrandall!

I really like this ship, I used it a lot for a while

But I'm at a stage where I farm a lot of dronite, legacite, protonium and irtitis. These resources are well protected, their drones are very heavy and sometimes I find some capital ships protecting them, but they are even weak ships and I have to run to not harm myself.

Do you have any good ships to recommend? That has a medium firepower and can withstand a 4~6 excavator.

Ended up fixing it after watching a Ravien video on how to do it and adding some RE-only items: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2821181770 .

I love this thing!
