R.U.S.T. Mining Carriage

The R.U.S.T. Mining Carriage is a variant of the original R.U.S.T. Freighter created by Aragath, then modified into R.U.S.T. Mobile Processing to add refineries, and modified yet again to add an aft hangar bay to become this ship. Consistent with the revised design that appears in the current game, this build is modless, but does use some DLC, but none more than what was used originally. The ship's basic hull structure is unchanged, but has been revised somewhat from the existing design to add new features. Note that I made no attempt to make the original sensor, sound block, and timer blocks functional, but left them there for anyone to use.

REVISIONS
- Replaced the basic refineries (arc furnaces), which are now redundant and much less efficient than the six refineries.
- Relocated the programmable block, gravity generator, sensor, and sound block to optimize interior space.
- Removed one of the two assemblers, but relocated one to allow the inclusion of four speed modules.
- Replaced the survival kit with a medical room
- Removed extraneous button panels.
- Added features for remote control operation.
- Added an aft hangar bay.
