Nano Miner - No DLC - No Mods

This is my smallest of large grid miners.

If you check out the rest of my workshop, you'll find quite a few smaller miners. This miner answers the question of "how small" and still practical.

Some features I felt that weren't critical were oxygen/hydrogen tanks and generators, survival kit, spotlights.

The result was a large grid four drill miner that can fit in a 4x3 large block space without being too bulky.

This is the BASE version. The Nano class runs on battery power only and does not store its own oxygen supply, so a more robust companion ship is always recommended. Also missing is an ore detector. The ship really isn't practical for exploring asteroids. It's meant to be shuttled to an asteroid by a larger, more capable ship and work as either an emergency miner, or as basically four self-propelled drills.

The Nano LE version has more QOL features if you want something slightly more capable.

Enjoy!
