Hope it helps anyone!

any luck with 1.5

update plz

update plz

@Katie: Yes, that's right. Accessing the mining progress was quite difficult so I took an easier way.
It's an interesting project you have in mind. You should probably remove the manning option if mounted on a vehicle. Good luck!

Trying to figure out if it's feasible to put a turret like this on a Vehicle Framework vehicle. If I'm understanding the code right, you just have your own basic "mining" function, rather than using the vanilla logic? Deal direct damage to rock/ore object, then spawn ore. Is that right?

@Robosium: Yes, indeed. You just have to switch the mining mode to "Rocks only": "In this mode, the mining turret only drill nearby designated rocks."

is there a way to make the turret only dig up rocks designated for mining?

also since i dont work with c# nor dlls, i dont have the ability to open the files referenced in errors and even if the mod includes source code i wouldnt know where to look. at least its good to know its something related to key bindings.

@Rikki, when i searched the identifier presented in the error, windows has listed the dll in your mod. which is why im thinking its the drill turret.
hugs lib shows up a lot in errors it doesnt have because its loading code/instructions from other mods that depend on hugs lib and because hugs lib is the one executing it, the error gets thrown there even tho thats not the place where it was caused.
also i have only one error in this mod list because i just put it together the same day and i always try to minimize the number of errors, not counting "errors" which are xml checks that intentional fail. also as someone who is frequently over 500 mods, 205 doesnt look so impressive to me.i was holding back a lot not to add more in.

@Ai Spacedestructor: I see no error related to the DrillTurret. The exception seems related to HugsLibChecker. It seems to mention a problem related to key binding but I am really unsure.
Have you tried to open the reported file?
I am impressed you only have 1 error popping up with 205 mods!

i have identified this mod as the cause or an error i have been getting since 1.4

the error can be found by looking for "at HugsLibChecker.HugsLibChecker.RunAllChecks () [0x000a2] in <17e0364003f64863ad8732cb22ef5516>:0" in https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/48442278c3192b2351bde1c13002643e

however, the mod still works as in tended. so im totally ok with using it as it is but if possible i would still like to eliminate all error message in my log that can be resolved.

@Angrysquirrel: the magic of modding! ;-)
"I just have to modify the frequency... then recalibrate the lens... and ta-da! A new defensive toy!" *TING* Solar flare detected. :-p

I wish I could drill pirates with this thing. :)

@萌王喵酱: please post your mod for others to enjoy if they want a faster drilling! :-)
This mod is published under Creative Common license. I believe you just have to put a link to the original mod (this page) and mention the author (me).

I tried it out, it's difficult to modify the damage, but I managed it. Do you mind if I post an accessory mod?

how to modify its damage?

Yep. It worked. I had a patch to your mod in another file that was not allowing the update to apply. thx rikki

@khaelion: I just tried and it works as intended. Make sure you saved the file and that you restarted the game. You should also check that you modified the file in the 1.4 Defs directory.
On my PC, the file is under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100\974398773\1.4\Defs\ThingDefs_Buildings\Buildings_DrillTurret.xml.

Tried, but not working. Same range.

@khaelion: Same file, modify the specialDisplayRadius field (default value is 15 cells). It is an old trick from old alpha versions. ;-)

Rikki, is there any way to increase the range of the turret? I cant find that in the xml files. Thx!

@ignis: It's moddable. In MiningCo. DrillTurret\1.4\Defs\ThingDefs_Buildings\Buildings_DrillTurret.xml file, just modify the field "<size>(3,3)</size>" to "<size>(1,1)</size>" for example.

One of the things that always felt too limiting is the size of that thing - being 3x3 it needs to much space to move around.

Updated to V1.4. :-)

@Blækk: I just verified it and it works as intended. Colonists stop using it when unpowered.

BUG: colonists will try to manually use an unpowered drill turret

@Rikiki I don't know what I was doing wrong. It wasn't modded ores, just granite that I was trying to mine. I switched it to mine stone only. Unfortunately I cant try again, my base was overrun by an infestation :(

@Guy_Jones: Automatic it is the default mode. Just click on the mode button to change it.
The turret will automatically start drilling when switching mode and there is a valid target in range.

Are you using heavily modded ores? If their definition is not correct, they might not be detected as "mineable".

How do you enable automated mode? It's kinda annoying to constantly give it a target, one at a time.

@Luke: No but you can modify it in the XML file Buildings_DrillTurret.xml. Just change the specialDisplayRadius field to what you want. Be aware that the turret scans for mining cells around it so putting a realy high range may lead to slowdown.

Is there a research to increase the range?

@Suger Eafly: thank you!

I love your mods,they are so cool!

@Blood Tear
Tested it, doesn't appear to work sadly. :<

Has anyone tested if it works or not with 1.3?

Please update to 1.3 when you have the time, thanks.

wondering if this has much c# involved with how it mines. Generally so I could do as Black was suggesting and get them to use the Quarry

I always wonder why it is so big. Manually mining out 3x3 square to place it kinda defies its purpose to automate.

@BlackFyre: Sorry my friend but without coding knowledge, I am afraid you can forget about it... Have a look at the code if you are really interrested. I could answer your questions then.

@Rikiki oh man i don't know how to code, but how does the turret know how to mine ore/rock? does it use the mining worktype?

@BlackFyre: I will not work on this myself but source code is available on GitHub if you want and try.

Hey, any way to get compatibility with Quarry Mod?

Thanks for the update.

Please update dude.

1.2 update ?

update for 1.2 plz

Could you add an option for the turret range? I like to play on big maps with Mountains and it would help if i would not have to reset the drill every day :D

Maybe to balance higher range: Lower dmg (e.g. speed) at blocks that are further away? -> to the current limit of
15 -> 100% dmg
20 -> 50% dmg
25 -> 25% dmg
30 -> 12.5% dmg
35 -> 6.25% dmg
40 -> 0% dmg

Amazing

I love your mods, would it be possible to make this one compatible with quarry mod?
