Miner Transport - Getting Started In Survival

Description
This is the rover from my tutorial on how to build rovers, it's a fairly simple construction capable of carrying a reasonable amount of ore and the converted drop pod miner. I've posted it here for anyone who wanted to get a closer look at what was done in the video.

My aim with this build was to make something that was cheap enough to be constructed early in the game, while also being quite difficult to roll over. Even with the miner attached you need to make some very aggressive turns in order to flip this over - unless you jump with X, then all bets are off ;)

@siggesatan it’s really not hard to find the video

so is there a video where you actualy show when you build the whole thing since the video is so hevylie edited so the only way is getting the blueprint...
and where exactly did conveyortube vs small conveyortubes go? and is that an autosorter going from the rearconector to the medium cargocontainers? geting started eh? im trying to learn the basics here so why isnt my abomination look like your miner transport? can i just get a 3d mesh of the thing...

I have this truck on my AI Engineers world right now, even with over 20k hours on SE (Over 2 accounts), AI Engineers' PBR is very adaptive and might use this truck when they start out in a world, who knows? their neural network is smart.

Fair warning this truck is cursed... 5 lighting stroke this the truck itself three time and twice the mining ship that I was transporting at the time then the truck badluck rub off on me and got hit twice all that in within 3 min.

So Built that truck twice now ( once got destroy by going down hill fully loaded hit a hole ... and off for a other truck to replace it then the second one ..well read above..) I now scarded to build the goose and butterball for fear of loosing that one too.

The 6 wheel layout is becoming a staple of my designs too :)

(EDIT: Great blueprint even just for the Miner transport!!! absolutely love how easy it made things for me)

This little rover is perfect for alot of other configurations, I've made a few other transports for my ships and bases, a fuel truck and for my WIP underground bases, a oxygen transporter, as well as a mobile defense truck and a mobile recharging station, since all these trucks use battery power (except for the recharging station, I put a hydrogen engine in it so all the batteries can recharge from the solar panels, and it will keep from using the energy that would of been used from the solar panels to move the truck.

Ronald, the only 'vanilla' way to do this would be with a Conveyor Sorter, this would be had to input on such a small ship. give it a try yourself though.

why doesnt the stone go from the pod to the chests auto??
