Watch it here! The above link is to the last in a 6 part mini-series chronicling the build of the Nether Crawler, an autonomous vehicle built in the Nether and designed with the Nether's unique challenges in mind. Some features of the build: - 6-axis movement capability courtesy of support frames and motors - 4 on-board thermopiles generating blutricity for the motors - forcefields protecting the bottom and sides of the vehicle - front facing forcefield with block cutter upgrade allows the vehicle to bore through solid objects - two forward facing TNT launchers - 8 deployers serving as "bomb bays" - automated ammunition management for bomb bays (load and unload, select ammunition type) - all systems centrally controlled by RP computer I had been posting the videos for this build in the Let's Play section until I realized that these are not Let's Play videos. I do the building and then I make videos showcasing the outcomes and discussing plans for the next steps in the build. No punching grass or beating on mobs with pickaxes in any of my videos ;D If you enjoy this video and would like to see the videos leading up to it, my entire Tekkit series is organized into a playlist on my channel that you are welcome to browse to your liking. Enjoy!

Added Ep 21 featuring an overview of the final hull structure, forcefields, and a brief test of the beginnings of the RedPower computer movement routines.

Added Ep 20 featuring the underbelly of the Nether Crawler, a quarry filled with diamonds, and water in the Nether.

Added Ep. 19 featuring some testing of potential hull cladding materials for explosion resistance, as well as testing and demonstrating the configuration for the TNT deployers. As always, links to episodes are in the original post :D

Added Ep. 18 featuring a test of the first computer assisted navigation routines using Redpower computers and joining the engine power module to the drive module.

Added Ep. 17 featuring assembly of the drive motor for my Nether Crawler exploration vehicle. Future episodes will cover more of the build as it progresses.

I've been making Tekkit videos and posting them to my youtube channel for a few weeks now. I tend to focus on creative building and progression through "advanced technology". I use EE very sparingly (I run four quarries in the overworld and two in the Nether, and energy condensers are excellent for gobbling up the junk blocks but I don't mass produce diamonds or anything else.) I just posted episode 14 of the series where I do a tour of my new automated refining and storage system and then finish up with a demonstration of my automatic monster harvester. You can find that episode here and the preceding episodes can also be found on my channel. The goal of the series is to hopefully be entertaining and informative. Every structure I build has a purpose so I show you the structure in the hopes that it might spark some creative musings of your own and then I show you how I use the structure and maybe you'll learn something new about how to make use of the machines and items in the Technic/Tekkit modpack. Enjoy!
