LG version does not get moved by pistons

The drill doesn't show up as a tool block, so it can't be operated by mouse buttons. Can someone help me with that?

Small grid variant causes massive lag on Dedicated server when attaching blocks.

chat, i know why the prototech drill looked familiar
Kinny Dec 18, 2024 @ 2:56am 
Couldnt get the small drill to build correctly in survival. Large grid was fine though

Still works, but how does this fare against the Prototech drill?

Is there any way to reduce the radius of the footprint this drills from? I mean I have this drill pointing out the back of my large mining tracked vehicle, and it digs into the ground taking my mining vehicle straight down into the hole.

for 'heavy mining drills', they happen to be way too fragile. especially for their price

@altairftb
steamoptions -> downloads -> empty cache
altairftb Jul 23, 2024 @ 2:37am 
@ Abisius how do i do that?
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius Jul 21, 2024 @ 4:01am 
@altairftb
try if telling steam to clean its cache helps

@xenon187 I tried unsub/resub. still shows up as a crit error in the debug screen and won't be visible
xenon187 Jul 20, 2024 @ 7:31am 
@altairftb The mod is working fine. The mod file just got DELETED somehow . After i replaced the file from the backup it works again. If you don't have backup try to subscribe/unsubscribe until the file is downloaded/restored
altairftb Jul 5, 2024 @ 10:55pm 
this is currently broken. it no longer loads in on my worlds since the signal update

@veda use control plus scroll wheel to move the block away from your character
Veda Jun 5, 2024 @ 7:31am 
This drill is awesome and all, but the only problem that I have with it is that I can't place it in survival because the fucking thing envelopes me. I don't know if there's a weird solution to that that I have missed, but I don't see it in the 41 plus comments in this mod and when I do see people talking about the placement issue they don't say how.

Would you be able it add a 3x3x4 and a 2x2x3 drills for large grids?
Lucy Jan 6, 2024 @ 12:08pm 
Hello im having an issue on my world where when i try to build it my game freezes up for about 30 seconds building or removing anything on it

Rock and stone?
Terror100[NL] Oct 11, 2023 @ 1:33am

DevilDogSniper Aug 13, 2023 @ 5:21am 
can this be uploaded for console i hate the vanilla drills and always use this on pc my friend and i started playing On console and would love to have this on console

The energy requirements should be increased for balance. 2 kW is like a toaster, 400 tonnes rotating smashing rocks, 20 MW is more reasonable.

For some reason it seems it's not working with PAM ? I can't start a job. Does anyone know a fix ? Or an alternative big drill that work with PAM ?

@Static
it probably comes from a time before the warfare 1 and warfare 2 updates with its changes to how dmg is done to blocks if i go for the time of the last update.
Static Apr 29, 2023 @ 9:16am 
So i just tested crashing into an asteroid with the 5x5 LG drill at 19.77m/s, and it did not live. poofed right off. so i dont know how the "Max speed to survive crash
Large Block: 25m/s (highes ive tested)" came to be
FunGuy Dec 28, 2022 @ 10:56am 
Drill now acts like a normal drill. No longer has a large radius.
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius Oct 23, 2022 @ 7:46am 
@Erabior
you need to stand at the side of it and place it via the middle connector, its a bit tricky and there is not much space between able to place it and unable to place it cause you are inside the block (its one of the biggest blocks placeable in survival).
Erabior Oct 22, 2022 @ 8:42pm 
how do i place this in survival? im literally standing inside the block
kekchebureck Aug 28, 2022 @ 8:29am 
Absolutelly unuque module, but some broken after so years... Can you make a update this drill for actual game version?
McSquizzy Aug 25, 2022 @ 4:28pm 
I'm also getting the conveyor issue with the Small-XL. Created a completely new save with just this mod, and the Small-XL will not connect to the conveyor system. The regular drill works fine.
Aendieh Aug 14, 2022 @ 6:40am 
Works for me without issues
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius Apr 12, 2022 @ 12:17pm 
@Audiacious
did you make a check for corrup mod/gamedata as well as a possible modconflcit?
Audiacious Apr 12, 2022 @ 9:37am 
broken for me right now. no other mods
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius Mar 27, 2022 @ 11:29am 
@Hyper Coder

Hyper Coder Mar 27, 2022 @ 7:59am 
can it be that the small-XL doesnt't habve an access point?
conveyor won't connect
Garrowind Feb 21, 2022 @ 7:54pm 
Still working for me. Love this thing.
Aetherial Feb 8, 2022 @ 4:01pm 
@kkarcsak1 it works for you?
kkarcsak1 Feb 8, 2022 @ 3:24pm 
one of the drills is to big to place on anything
Emperors_Nightmare Oct 27, 2021 @ 6:30pm 
pleas
Abisius Xarvenius Carbensius Jul 19, 2021 @ 10:19am 
@Dying Dark Star
i can only say that it works without probs for me.
so from my side i would say you have either corrupt moddata or a modconflict.
Dying Dark Star Jul 4, 2021 @ 9:59pm 
this mod keeps getting error and wont load. I've deleted it and downloaded it and still doesn't work
kekchebureck Jun 22, 2021 @ 9:41am 
Sad what this mode abandoned... It's really need update...
ATF_Coldblooded Carebear || May 12, 2021 @ 11:47am
