Description
Welcome Everyone to the M.A.N.T.I.S (Miscellaneous Assistance n' Terra Import System)
The Mantis is a Multi Use Utility spaceship that can be customized to suit your needs.
It can be fitted with Drills or welders or grinders with simple conveyor extension, and you can swap the position of the connector and O2 Generator to make it fit whatever ship you use.

The Mantis is based off of the prototype I made in Colony Wars, major changes have been made from testing to ensure the miner is at its peak optimization.
Atmospheric capability is possible with replacement of some thrusters, but it is not recommended.
Mining on the moon will require an additional Large Ion Thruster for lift (see images for example)

Hope you all enjoy it!

The hydrogen thrusters do not work, and I can't leave my planet :(

Thruster damage is a thing so you can't place things in front of the blast area, the last pic shows the most optimal way to have it work on the moon. Grind the o2 and conenctor and then swap their positions, slap a large ion behind the o2 gen and it will work without getting thruster damage.
Id recommend joining a discord and asking for help there as many people can answer your questions, if the last time you played was in the first iteration of multiplayer then you have a lot to catch up on, good luck!

I mean, you've moved a few things, connector included. I'm just a returning player, confused as to all the crazy things that've happened to the game over the years since I last played (multiplayer now functions, soooo... I'm back.)

How do I do these things to get it functioning correctly?

I tried too large thrusters on the sides and they burned out. Literally.

After some testing yes it needs an additional large ion thruster to support itself, you can attach one on the rear as shown in the last picture I posted, it will require swapping the o2 gen and the connectors positions.

I mean, it was eating ice like a pig and giving me nothing for it.

sounds like you didn't fill up all the power sources, or you filled up the cargo container but Im sure it should be able to fly with it full.

I built one but it just couldn't get any lift on this moon I'm on.

hey venom what weapon mod do you use on colony wars

Yea I have yet to make a ship that can operate in both space and atmosphere that is not clunky. Unless we use some type of modded thrusters that goal will remain elusive, at least for now.

Glad you like it! I only wish it could have been more usable in atmosphere, its sluggish but doable, making something work for all conditions is a huge task in SE haha
