Description

The Esprit is an exploration rover equipped with all the basic equipment required to begin pioneering on a new world. The vehicle includes a Survival Kit, generous cargo capacity, Cryopod, Ore Detector, communications equipment, basic defence and more. It is designed for a single operator for use in the location and construction of a primary base of operations. Once this outpost is complete, the Esprit can function as a rudimentary defence system, cargo vehicle or simply ground down for scrap.

The Esprit has two hydrogen engines which generate electricity to charge the battery. It is also equipped with three parachutes, so it can be dropped from a high altitude to save fuel, ready to begin exploration when it lands.

Instructions

Disable rear steering (Toolbar 5) when travelling at high speed, switch it back on for parking and manoeuvring. When driving on moons, use the terminal screen to decrease the power and max speed of the wheels group by two thirds. If you roll, use gyro override (Toolbar 9) to put the rover back on it's wheels. Use the Repair Pistons (Toolbar 3,4) to repair damage to the underside and wheels. Using both sets of pistons at once is not recommended unless on a flat, manufactured surface.

Notes

Shout out to Nazz27 for the Bulldog APC. It gave me a few ideas. https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1902985882
