Dredgeworks

by Kubius

Ore patches now spill over into the sea as submerged variants. Dredge them up with new floating hardware, and build deeper into the blue with water-placeable refined concrete.

i Floating variant of Big Drill

Well, as the title says... Space Age gives us the cool new Big Drill unlocked on Vulcanus, so I'm simply suggesting a floating variant of it. Or well, something that big might not be able to float, but perhaps some sufficiently strong supports could be welded on to let it stand firm in the ocean?

Current intent is to not have an oceanic big drill counterpart as a core part of Dredgeworks; if I had an appropriate animation set I'd consider a dredger boat or large-scale drilling platform as a separate addon mod, but that's currently beyond my prowess.

Alrighty then!

I had an idea that's slightly related, can we get the seafloor drills to at least stack onto belts? as the in-between of big drills and something Dredgeworks-flavored as a "floating big drill"

being honest, the seafloor patches in my current playthrough are most of my resources and I'd like to get a little more of the resource patch drain percentage that the big drills have

What do you mean "stack onto belts", exactly? If you mean the Space Age research, I think I've seen them do that already.

I have not yet seen it from seafloor drills onto floating belts
