This ship is a support ship; it allows you to go with your ore-mining friends on their adventures.
It also allows you to mine, collect, or carry with you the resources needed to make alloys. You are amply supplied to refuel your own ship or your friends' ships.
However, remember to balance hydrogen consumption. If you use tanks on the left side, then use tanks on the right side to keep the ship balanced. Note that imbalances shouldn't be a problem.
If your friends crash into an asteroid, you can repair their ships with the resources you have previously loaded or mined on site in case of shortage.
If repairs are not possible on site, you can salvage debris (especially plasma parts) to use later during repairs in your CapShip.
Be careful, however, with the ship's already high building budget. You can load at least 8 plasma parts.
Of course, you can tow a friend's ship. The ship works very well with the AAS, and it also works during towing, but the ship behind may not be fully covered by the R8's AAS.
Before setting out on a mission, remember to bolt your tools and consumables (cable, pipe, bolt).
Ship price: Ships are no longer sold individually. BP: 5M - Free for owners of paid Skytanker
