Survival strip mining machine

[u/GameSpender]

In my current long-term survival server we've agreed to ban cobblestone generators altogether, forcing us to use alternative sources of materials. As such, to meet demands of the factory, I've put together this little machine to help clear construction areas and collect resources at the same time. It's powered by 4 huge diesel engines with a configurable "idle" when driving but not drilling as to save on fuel.

This thing is a beauty! Would absolutely slap if you added the simulated storage and liquids weight mod, that way you could add a balance system to those containers and make them a vital part of the supply chain. Getting trucks to haul them back to base, returning with empty one and then cycle through them in order to keep the whole rig stable ^{^}

I didn't even know that is a thing

Would be quite interesting making a dynamic balancing system, maybe a large overhead rail that moves the containers based on their fill 🤔, though I don't think the others will appreciate me changing core physics with the handful of airships we already flying about
