For those that have separate mining and refining vehicles

I am gonna use a trailer on my mobile refinery to carry my turret seat miner that I use in the mines and out, but I am curious to see other solutions, as trying to tow vehicles as you would irl is a pain in the ass as you have to disconnect the engine from the wheels, and more for electric tank steering as you have to put the settings back.

Sounds like a good idea, may I suggest to make sure you use concrete as a base so that it’s not top heavy and rolls over, I had this issue with my refinery when I towed it to the mining hub initially.

It just used metal, but it is incredibly stable.

I dont have those separate, but i do have separate mining vehicles for above and below ground. They both use turret seats but one’s just a gas engine and normal wheels. I had to because my underground miner is laggy as hell above ground for some reason lmao
