Let's talk in blocks. How many blocks is the drill radius of this drill?

For our game server, we need an XXL Industrial Drill having a drill radius of 30 blocks to each side. The factions on our server build ships that must go underground and even have battles underground, but the current drill radius sizes restrict the size of our ships.

The drill itself could be 5x5x10 blocks in size. Maybe even two work modi: tunneling (30 blocks radius), and ore mining (10 blocks radius to each side, or 30 blocks but very slow). Can you do such a mod?

something may be wrong with this mod atm. ive noticed that now they dont seem to mine the area they use to. unfortunately this is causing me some issues in game right now because some of my mining ships depend on these drills to work. "i really like these drills btw" was there a change i missed with these or in a patch that changed them?

these things are so bloody heavy it causes some glitches with thrusters, and it throws the center of mass of some ships completely out of whack...

it will not be over powered if you drop the number of componats and build times, because the regulaur drill radius of a large ship is not perpotional to the drill of a small ship. Because the original is not even ballenced i think that having a larger dril radius should not be that much more costly.

is this repaired already? because im always really careful in digging forward because it might mysteriously break again. it would be a pain if it does considering the effort to create one

I gave you time to respond, so sorry, but I have to grade this as it is. The field of effect only works about half the time, the other half, the drills strike and break on surfaces that would otherwise be handled by normal drills just fine. Simply put, this is a waste. Don't bother with it.
