Prototype, Space Engineers 2
Limpet Swarm
A hangar bay you build into your hull, and a swarm of little drones that fly out to fix the ship.
Coming to the Workshop Source at release
Under the hood
The mod
- Blocks
- Limpet Bay (2.5 m), Wide Limpet Bay (5 m), Salvage Tag
- Items
- The Limpet drone and four upgrade cartridges, built at the Assembler
- Scripts
- Required for the drones to fly. Without them, a bay works as a long-reach welder.
Up close
Two bays, two hatches
The standard bay opens with an eight-petal iris. The wide bay uses a two-leaf clamshell. Both are built flush into the hull with one launch face.
Works before the drones do
Even without scripts, a bay is useful: it acts as a long-reach area welder, 15 m for the standard bay and 20 m for the wide one.
Tune the swarm
Each bay has four slots for upgrade cartridges: Servo, Range, Efficiency and Tool Tip.
Mark it for salvage
Stick a Salvage Tag on a wreck and its strobe marks the grid for the swarm to take apart.
