Part of our adventures making minimum viable transport ships. This thing barely works, moves slowly, can't fire at many asteroids, only sorta supplies enough energy. It gets where it needs to eventually though and includes the most important space ship feature: Blinky lights

Here I was theorising you could make a functional spaceship with just 1 crafter and a chemical plant, but you actually did it. Great job!

What's the refill time on the fuel tanks there?

If you keep the thrust lower it becomes more fuel efficient! Less time to refill

Thank you, it was a lot of fun to build! No idea on refill speed I just use them for reading which I'm lower on. It can travel at an inconsistent speed of about 40-50 between Nauvis and Gleba. It was actually spending almost all of its time floating around trying to make ammo, fuel was fine. I made a 2.0 version that has ammo delivered to it that I'll post later
