This is my Entire process from start to finish of how I went about Building and Testing of my Minefield Drone v2.0.
(From Start to Drone Completion, Edited & Cut for your Viewing Pleasure)

I wanted a Complete Redesign of my old minefield drone from my Automation Nation Survival Series but it was becoming a pain to reload them after each trigger.

🧲Minefield Drone Version 2:

TIMECODES:
00:00 - Start
00:01:07 - Drone Build Start... Pad finished
00:04:39 - Reason Why I'm redesigning this Drone from scratch etc
00:10:04 - Testing how chutes and ammo will be transferred
00:12:40 - Why my first minefield drone didn't already include everything I build on the Version 2
00:28:06 - Naming all individual block's (have edited out a lot of silence for your viewing pleasure)
00:35:57 - Grouping all necessary blocks together for Drones Functionality and Timer Block Trigger's
00:40:19 - Programming most of the Timer Block's with the Mine Group's and settings etc. for Drone Activation
00:45:21 - I show in detail, how my "Activate Timer" works in its action list to Trigger the drone to Auto Pilot etc.
00:46:25 - I show in detail how my Mine Drop Timer's works in their action list to drop each mine separately at their respective GPS locations
00:47:41 - This is a quick summary of most of the Timer's used on my drone to trigger, drop, return & rebuild itself using the Welder Tower (end of this Vid)
00:49:44 - I show in detail how my Secure Dock Timer allows the Drone to have a smooth docking to base or grid, every time
00:51:01 - Programming the Rebuild Timer to allow either Self Repair or it to Rebuild it's Mine's again using a 2nd Remote Block (ready for Reactivation)
00:51:31 - I prepare the Drone for printing in my Survival Series by turning off its thrusters and batteries to recharge etc. for easy use once built from scratch on my Simple Drone Printer
00:53:20 - Testing to see if both remote Blocks are in the same location and height as my Minefield Drone Version 1, Mk.3 (Download Now)
00:55:58 - Where I think the Drone is completed enough for me to get it off the Building Pad and onto a Dock ready for its Full Activation and Test
00:56:28 - I Voice a little on the way I Record, Edit & Design/Create things in Space Engineers... Due to my Medical Issues etc. (I really do appreciate the feedback and no not serious)
00:57:18 - I test the new Drone on my Simple Drone Printer from my Hardcore Automation Nation Survival Series to see if there are any issues with the Timer Blocks memory, once built from scratch
01:01:23 - Quick test to find the reason why it won't allow me to Change the Minefield Drone, v2.0, into a Ship Grid from a Base (unmovable) Grid
01:02:03 - Finally Fixed the Base Grid issue and got it to dock as intended on the base connector awaiting Trigger
01:03:42 - Final Remote Block Programming to tell the New Drone, What to Do and Where (also create GPS to show)
01:06:08 - Final test to make sure the Drone is able to Automatically Reload Parachutes & Ammo once connected onto the base or Drone Tower
01:08:18 - 1st ever Drone Activation to drop all 4 Mine's and return back to Dock to Automatically Re-arm and eventually retriggered to Reprint on the Welder Tower when convenient
01:10:47 - I cover why I think the Drone failed and how to fix it, extremely quickly
01:13:05 - Timer Block's will remember and automatically re-add an, exactly same named, newly created block group to the Timer block that had the existing named group
01:14:08 - Preparing to update the saved BP from earlier to a more recent/completed version
01:14:59 - Second test of the (now updated) Minefield Drone v2.0
01:16:59 - Final Test of the Drone without my Absolute Incompetence and bad timing for a quick off the cuff test... haha
01:19:26 - Final Working Minefield Drone and Showcase of its Full Activation from start to finish including a few of my episode notes at the time of recording... Like how long it took me in this recording to plan, design, build, name, program and test all in one so please let me know what you think in the Comments Below or Discord... Thanks Heaps
