Put the fun back into mining with the Mining M8 all purpose mining platform. The days of having to set up work lights, dig egress ramps and not being able to get at those hard to reach spots are over!
The Mining M8 is an SV mining platform with built in constructors, cargo, O2 and lights. The idea is to land directly above a resource site, power off the thrusters and begin digging around the walkways using the walkways as a guide. As you dig the platform will sink along with you keeping your work site fully lit and giving you easy access to oxygen, food, supplies and constructors. Being able to refine your minerals while you mine is a major time saver. Not to mention you never need to leave the hole to fill up on oxygen etc.
Seeing the platform sink as you dig is a strangely rewarding experience and has made mining fun again. Each time I see it sink a bit it’s like I have reached a milestone and a sense of satisfaction envelopes me. Not to mention it looks freaking awesome and professional!
Take your mining to a new level with the Mining M8.
