Is this Rover MK14? If so, launch.

[Aklyon]

Its the Rover mk1, with enough rebuilt parts and duct tape leftover comet bits to technically qualify as an mk14.

[Roboboy33]

Ok then, whats the safest place to launch to? Preferrably with some usable matierial/metals.

[Aklyon]

>Launch
Firing Rover to Sector 4,-4.



*THOOOMPH!*
Rover Mk14 running bootup sequence...
Core systems reconfiguring for current design...ok
Core booted
Network initializing......ok
Connected via secure link to Orbiter.
Orbital Command Uplink activated
Self-defense system initiating...ok
Spite chip prepared to ruin anyone who disrupts Rover operation's day via explosion.
Finishing reconfiguration to fit current non-standard shape.

Scanning sector...............ok
Mountains. No lifesigns detected. Stealth system activated and optimized for current configuration. Sun: Morning.

[freeformschooler]

I think we should head away from the red areas.

>Rover: 1 SW

[Aklyon]

I think we should head away from the red areas.

>Rover: 1 SW

The red areas are quite a bit away from 4,-4. I'd thought it was easier to split the maps into two then have a giant map with only a corner connecting the two, since its confuing enough to make sense of it once the color tags start jumbling up the map in the text box.

[freeformschooler]

Oh. I was reading the signs backwards. We can take our time then.

>South 1 then West 1.

[Roboboy33]

Do mineral/metals scan at new location.

[Aklyon]

Materials Scan of Sector 4,-4:
Easily accessable: rock, dirt, coppery mineral.
Farther down: Harder minerals, and an unknown radar-absorbing substance. Metals either elsewhere or below the substance. Minerals likely suitable for ground construction, unknown if light enough for mobile use. Also suitable for Cannon cartridge manufacturing with minimal transmution.

Sector 4,-5:
Conductive rock sample re-collected.
Small live creature found:
Qualities: Small. Likely nonthreatening. Burrower.
Notes: What is it surviving off of? Not much in the way of flora in this region.
Stunned. Collected for possible trade usage, or for SCIENCE!
Materials scan: See Previous

Sector 3,-5:
Large, pointed, minimally eroded rock formation. Signs of unusually common scorching and/or lightning strikes upon it. No signs of storm-related marks or destruction elsewhere in entire sector. Scan indicates resemblance but not matching link to conductive rock sample. area otherwise of no new interest.
Materials scan: Minimal compared to previous, with exception to the lightning-attractor mineral formation extending quite a fair bit down.

[Roboboy33]

Have the satelite do a quick scan of the area around us, and do we have mining capabilities?

[Aklyon]

We can mine anything marked 'Easily Accessable'. Deeper than that, we need a minerbot.
Also, do you mean the surrounding sectors around us, or just around the rover?

[Roboboy33]

The surrounding sectors, and mine some of that coppery mineral.

[Llamainaspitfire]

The surrounding sectors, and mine some of that coppery mineral.

[Aklyon]

Orbiter scan: No major lifesigns within surroundings. Material scan mostly-uniformly the same. Returning to 5,-4 to mine coppery material.

Material mined enough to scan.
Best use: Cannon cartridges.
Mining continues.
Radar Mapping system fixed.
