The Emerson Drilling rig is a slow but steady platform for deep core drilling.
Survival ready, but only for Earth like planets as there's no ventilation. There is conveyor system from drill to cargohold!
To start it all, in the control room there are 2 buttons bound, 1 for drill start, and other for Timer Down. Punch the timer down ONCE, not twice. Only ONCE! Don't touch it afterwards or it will mess up the cycle.
Features loading deck, "the lumber yard". Generator housing for power production. Crew building with various things like control room and medical.
The automation is SLOW, but any faster and I found out that drill bits tend to disintegrate from minor wear and tear after 600m mark, this pace is capable of reaching unlimited depths and in my tests I left it running for an hour + and it ran stable and deep. Eventually broke down after a few kilometers, not due to drill bit, but for some odd glitch which stopped the timers midway, suspect autosave messing it.
Let me know what you think! :)
