Stops moving after a while
Awesome work on this miner , really impressed! I might have found a bug where the miner starts to goto a drill hole or home and sometimes just sits idle. If I pause it and unpause it , it usually continues working.

Same here, it seems there's something wrong with the scan-script. It gives an error on |MyRemoteControle| combined with 'GetFreeDestination'....

part of the reason it crashes is the tolerance on aligning for drilling, it takes so long to get it right that it runs out of power, one possible fix is: if you open the pb_nav and go to to line 1347 (iirc) change the 0.5 on that line to 0.8 you might have better luck.

If You are familiar with C# you can easy modify DrillAlign method of MyDriller to pass out EmergencyReturn flag and make test inside for battery charge. Then even if Miner stops at DrillAlign it will return to base on low power. I have made this update and testing right now. If tests goes ok i will publish updated code.

Can you do this for the Hvr4 miner aswell?

Can you link Hvr4 miner? I'm not familiar with this project and can't find it. I will check Hvr4 code when you link it.

Anyway here is my version of Octopus that if stuck on drill align unstuck after while, and checks battery during drill align. Also returns to home if any critical module is damaged.
