To enter the ship, there is are buttons on either side of the cockpit of the ship that will open Doors
. Once inside you can also open and close the cockpit glass Canopy
. Buttons for these are available in the pilot left side console.
Interface | Function |
---|---|
Speed |
Current speed in metres per second. |
ForwardThrust |
Current forward thrust, maximum of 10,000 units |
Throttle |
Current throttle level, maximum of 100 percent |
Cruise |
Activates cruise control, forward thrust will not reset to zero unless turned down. |
Turtle |
Activates turtle mode which sets forward thrust to a maximum limit of TurtleRate of full thrust. |
Sloth |
Activates the low sensitvity mode of pitch and yaw by limiting thrust. Use the Sensitivity switch to set the maximum thrust rate of sloth mode. |
Profiles |
Adjusts preset flight profiles. See Flight Profiles. |
Aim |
Reduces the response time of key presses for pitch and yaw. |
Guides |
Activates four forward facing rangefinders as guides. |
Range & Distance |
Activates center rangefinder, with Distance showing distance to object. |
Scanner & Materials |
Turns on the Ore Scanner and shows results of scan. |
Approach , Collect , Mine , Lasers , Rotate , Eco , Drill Mode , Drill Pitch & Drill Count |
Mining controls. See Mining. |
Warnings , SafeZone & StrengthFactor |
Warnings for being outside safe zone, ship damage as well as low fuel or propellant. See Warnings Panel. |
Transponder Toggle & Ping |
Transponder controls, Toggle turns on and off ship transponder while Ping will activate transponder for three seconds |
Timer |
See Timer. |
Odometer |
See Odometer. |
See Flight Systems on how to fly the ship and use its flight systems.
To approach an asteroid, point the center range finder at an asteroid and activate Approach
. Once in range (optimum range is 16 to 20m on Distance
), activate Lasers
to turn on the mining lasers. Activating Rotate
will rotate the laser drill.
The laser drill has three modes.
Fixed
mode will keep all lasers converged to the asteroid detected by the center range finder.Manual
mode allows adjustment of the Drill Pitch
. The pitch range is from -15
to 20
degrees.Auto
mode will activate Rotate
and progressively increase the drill pitch with the rotationsDrill Pitch
can only be adjusted in Manual
mode. Eco
mode will only use two lasers to conserve power. Drill Count
controls whether one, two or three drills are activated when mining.
Mine
is a button which will activate automated mining. Point the center range finder at an asteroid and activate. It will activate Material Scanner
and Approach
, and once in range it will automatically activate Lasers
.
Collect
turns on the six ore collectors.
If batteries start running out of charge while mining, turn on Min Gen
. Continous use of the lasers and collectors at the same time requires a Min Generator Rate
of around 90%.
NOTE: For safety, lasers will turn off if the total fuel is less that 2,000 units.
Activate using the Material Scanner
button. The laser will try to adjust to point at the objects detected by the center range finder. Scan results will show on the Materials
panel in number of stacks. It has a maximum range of 100m.
Interface | Function |

Propellant |
Total propellant remaining in propellant tanks, maximum of 48,000,000 units. |
PropTime |
Time and distance remaining of propellant based on current usage. Distance is calculated from speed. |
FuelTime |
Time and distance remaining of fuel based on current usage. Distance is calculated from speed. |
WithBackup |
Same as FuelTime but takes into account backup rods available. Use the switch for Backup Rods to set the number of backup rods available. As standard there are 24 extra rods. |
Fuel Rod 1 to Fuel Rod 12 |
Fuel remaining on fuel rods in individual fuel chambers, maximum of 300,000 units for each. |
Generator |
Current generator rate, maximum of Generator Limit . |
Min Gen & Min Generator Rate |
Toggle and sets minimum generator rate. See Managing Power and Fuel. |
Shutdown |
Will turn off all fuel chambers thus shutting down generators. |
Battery |
Shows current battery charge of the batteries, maximum of 10,000 units. |
HeatTransferRate |
Current heat transfer rate of the heat sinks, maximum of 100%. |
Flow In & Flow Out |
Toggle flow modes of resource bridges. See Refilling Propellant. |
Lights |
Turns on and off internal lights. |
Doors |
Opens or closes ship entry doors. |
See Power and Fuel Systems on how to manage ship power and refuel.
See Propellant Systems on how to refill propellant.
