Drilling Rig

Just a simple automatic drilling rig, it uses the new merge block to allow the whole rig to move around more smoothly, and uses the new autolock feature to allow for smoother drilling. The rig consists of 8 large cargo containers, 8 chairs, 4 refineries, 4 assemblers, 4 medical bays, 4 large reactors, and 2 cockpits. The rig also uses two rows of collectors and a few connectors on the shaft to easily allow the materials to use the conveyor system on the main rig. Though materials are not shared though refineries yet so you will need to seperate them out evenly with eachother. This also uses a field of gravity generators near the drill head to collect any remnants of ore leftover by the drills.

Instructions:
1. Turn the shaft landing gears to autolock and set to unlimited force.
2. Turn the guide rail landing gears to autolock and set to 2.5KN.
3. Turn on the shaft gravity generator to 0.02G.
4. Turn off the merge blocks and wait untill the drills come in contact with the surface.
5. Set the shaft gravity generator to a full 1G and turn on the drills.
6. Let the rig drill.
7. When it is done the shaft landing gears should autolock to the main rig.

Note: If you are drilling into a rock that is hollow it is best to set the shaft gravity generator to 0.25G so the drill head does not shear off then it hits the cave wall.

Retraction:
1. Turn off the drills.
2. Set the shaft gravity generator to -0.02G.
3. Turn on the merge blocks for both the shaft and the main rig.
4. Turn autolock off for the shaft landing gears and unlock them.
5. Let the shaft retract and then merge with the main rig.
6. Now move to a new area and drill again.

Note: The guide rail landing gears can be left on autolock this decreases the friction of the shaft moving up and down and is vital when drilling. If this is off when drilling the vibration of the drills destroys the landing gears and you cannot use a full 1G on the shaft gravity generator.
