1900s Steam Shovel - Career Friendly Mining Rig
Relatively basic mining rig in the form of a steam shovel, runs on an electric furnace powered by an infinity generator .(because the thing exists to mine coal, you wouldn't run out)
Carries just under 2,300 units of water for the boiler, depending on how fast you run the turbine this can drain quite rapidly, it is advised to have a water supply at the ready whereever you decide to go mining.
Uses modded parts, personal testing has had it load in perfectly fine in vanilla savegames, if you have any issues let me know in the comments & I will do my best to resolve them.
NOTICE:
This vehicle is built with modded components, to my understanding you do not need to retroactively add these mods to your worlds, but will need to be subscribed to them on the steam workshop so that the game can load custom models correctly.
The required mods are as follows:
