I have now created a Discord for my current and upcoming mods! If you would like to stay up to date with new content, ask a question, or send a recommendation, you are more likely to get a response there!
I will also be regularly streaming my process for new weapons and mods, as well as answering questions anybody who is interested in learning has, come check it out!

Newest Update 1.6
Thanks to the wonderfully helpful Annastasya, multiple fixes have been implemented. Grinders are now oriented correctly, and drills are (hopefully) drilling correctly. I will likely have to make some more tweaks to get everything just right, but this should fix the majority of issues. Mountpoints have been updated, and build stages have been fixed.

In addition, thanks to the help of SEModder4™, the mod now works on cross-platform and allows you to scroll through the ship tools similar to the vanilla tools.

Are you tired of those lame grinders which only cut through ships as slow as an orbital shipping cruiser? Does it annoy you that ship drills only have one lousy access point? Does it annoy you even more that there is no direct terminal access? Well, look no further!

Dun, dun, DUNNNNN. The BA-20 Shipyard Grinder is the newest addition to the Akiad Development industrial portfolio. This oversized grinder is impractical, ugly as hell, and tears apart ships like they are made of nothing more than your opponent's spacesuit.

I present to you the Akiad Development SHIPBREAKER extra-large grinder. This grinder is a 7x7 monster capable of breaking down large ships into their components in record time. It has two direct terminal access points, 4 extra inventory access points other than the large one on the bottom, and is just overall a great companion when looking to loot some civilian cargo ships.

The Akiad Development HEAVY IMPACT DRILL is an extra-large mining drill capable of extracting ore in even the most arduous terrain. The drill features a sleek, yet efficient design that is befitting even the greatest mining vessels.
Updates
- Version 1.5 - Model updates for all previously included tools. Added a large grid Heavy Impact Drill and the BA-20 Shipyard Grinder. Updated some of the build times and required components for balance. Updated some icons.
- Version 1.4 - Akiad SHIPBREAKER is now Akiad Development, as I will be branching development out into different ship tools. For this update I have added the Akiad Heavy Impact Drill, an extra large small ship drill capable of clearing large chunks of voxels. Be warned, currently only the small inventory access points are working, next update will address this. A large grid version will also be included next update.
Version 1.3 - Now includes both large and small grid Ship Breaker versions! Both versions are interchangeable, work when in a cockpit, and have fixed mount points and bounding boxes. I also implemented them into the vanilla research chain, they are now unlocked after the vanilla ship grinder.
[h1]Planned Features[/h1] (Roughly in order of when they will be added):
- Large & Small grid Akiad Development Welder. The only reason this is at the bottom of the list is frankly I don't have an idea for the model, but as soon as I do it will get done :)
Please let me know if you run into any bugs or have any suggestions, this is only my second mod and I am sure there will be issues. In addition, please check out my first mod "Akiad Defense - Small Grid Weapons Pack" which is also in development!
