TBM-613 Automatic Tunnel Boring Machine - No mods

Hello engineers !

The TBM is made up of 3 parts:

- Head (Drill)
- Body (Assemblers and building unit)
- Tail (Control Room)

It's fully automatic. It digs, builds, and move autonomously. You just have to select your
program, and press start. It move one part at the time, following a 3-positions cycle so as to
always keep 2 attachment points.
You can choose to move 3 Blocks (1 cycle), or Continuous (non-stop). It works essentially
with sensors, each movement is triggered only if the previous movement is finished.
In survive, the TBM is self-sufficient. It can dig and build indefinitely as long as the drill is
harvesting enough stone. Components and Ingots for 6 sections are provided. The head speed will be reduced to 4 cm/s if BUILD is selected or the Drilling is active.

DO NOT CHANGE ANY PISTON/ROTOR SETTINGS !

The TBM work great in survival, but must be paste in creative beforehand. You will need to
activate experimental mode and in-game scripts. Thrusters are on by default, you can paste
it wherever you want. You can also paste it directly on the tunnel anchor (see tutorial).
The airlocks work well, as long as you do not fill the tanks fully. O2 generators are off by default. Disable Airlocks in a breathable atmosphere.
User Manual is available in the TBM control room. Read it before use.

IMPORTANT !
Inertia tensor sharing is active by default on main pistons. This improves the stability of
the ship in flight. USE ONLY Red button in TBM cryo room to disable it.
YOU NEED TO DISABLE IT once docked on the tunnel anchor to allow TBM movement.

---- READ ONLY IF YOU WANT TO MODIFY TUNNEL DESIGN ----

Here is the links of tunnel parts blueprints if you want to modify tunnel design :

There is 5 projectors :
- Projector T1 (track with light a)
- Projector T2 (track with light b)
- Projector T3 (track without light)
- Projector TSD (track with ship dock)
- Projector SF (sides and floor)
Turn on projectors to see alignment, and replace blueprint if needed.
turn off projectors when done.
There is 3 variants for the Track. I created them to limit the amount of lights in the tunnel.
It builds a light 1 cycle out of 2. (no light, blue light,no light,yellow light, etc...)
At each cycle, the Track blueprint changes following this sequence: T1-T3-T2-T3 etc..
Blue lights are in group "eclairage tunnel a".
Yellow lights are in group "eclairage tunnel b".
