Cargo Ship
Mining Hauler
[[File: |frameless|300px]] |
Mining cargo ship with a very large moving capacity, achieved with 18 Large Cargo Containers interconnected using Conveyor Blocks
Contents
Defences
Anti Ship Defences
Although there are a few anti ship defences surrounding the ship, there are blind spots
- 2 Gatling Turrets, and 1 Missile Turret on top
- 2 Gatling Turrets on the bottom
Anti Personnel Defences
the ship's interior has no defences
Trap
 |
This ship has 1 reverse Small Thruster rigged to blow up the ship's only Large Reactor (shown in a cut-away to the left). The blast from this trap destroys the Large Reactor, practically disabling all thrust (due to the power required to move such a heavy ship). |
Tactics
Approach
Although there are a number of defences surrounding this ship, there appear to be large blind-spots when heading directly toward the ship.
It appears that a viable safe approach will be to go to where the ship is heading, face it, and head directly toward it.
Alternatively, there is a landing pad on the ship's back (shown in the cut-away below), but it has a Missile Turret directly in front of it... so good luck with that.
However: As of v1.23 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets aren't functioning.
So at this time, approach tactics are speculative only.
Attack
As of v1.23 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets aren't functioning.
So at this time, attack tactics are unclear.
But one thing is clear, avoid shooting the explosives
Entry
The ship's Cockpit is directly behind the right side Spotlight, located on the ship's top.
From the ship's interior, the only way to get to the cockpit is through a small labyrinth of Passage Blocks starting at the Steel Catwalk midst the Large Cargo Containers
There are 3 ways into this ship (assuming you don't blast a hole into it):
Hangar Doors
On either side of the ship, toward it's back, there is a large doorway (made up of armor blocks) underneath large yellow awnings.
(shown above by the large hole through the ship, in front of the Large Reactor)
Entry can easily be gained by slipping through the large gaps either side of these doors.
Landing Area Door
In front of the landing area on top of the ship is a Door that leads (via vertically placed Passage Blocks) to the upper level of the cargo area.
Direct Cockpit Access
Another way to get straight to the cockpit is to use the Grinder on a single Steel Catwalk block behind it (shown in the image on the right)
Disable
The reverse thruster trap can be disabled by either:
- Turning the offending Small Thrusters off from the Cockpit (it has only one small thruster)
- Removing / Disabling the Small Thruster with a Grinder
There appear to be 2 ways to get to the thruster, from inside, or from outside.
This is probably best observed from the cut-away floor-plan shown in the Entry section above
Alternatively, if you're in a hurry, you can manoeuvre the ship to where you need it by only applying thrust in a forward direction.
This will mean that you need to point the ship away from your destination before you switch on the dampeners.
Salvage
Cargo Containers:
Each of the 18 large cargo containers can easily be raided.
Reactors:
There is 1 Large Reactor accessible from the interior containing 2kg of Uranium Ingot.
There is also a Small_Reactor on the ship's top left, but it contains no Uranium Ingot, and is only accessible by removing at least one surrounding block.
Ship Composition:
Thrusters / Gyros:
- 1 x Small Thruster
- 12 x Large Thruster
- 3 x Gyroscope
Reactor(s):
- 1 x Large Reactor
- 1 x Small Reactor
Other:
- 1 x Beacon
- 1 x Antenna
- 1 x Gravity Generator
- 2 x Refineries (incomplete)
- 2 x Spotlights
