This All-Terrain-Vehicle (ATV) was designed with planets in mind. It is first seen as a projector hologram and can be welded from the hologram of the EasyStation base for a great fast ATV.

Description

Since its original design, some blocks were altered, giving it a key flaw. That flaw being that the Icon Block O2 H2 Generator.png O2 H2 Generator is not connected to the cockpit. The reason for this is because the number of small conveyor ports has changed from 3 to 2 for the small grid "Oxygen Generator". It is an easy enough fix for the ATV, but it requires cutting into the ship next to the cockpit and swapping a Icon Block Small Conveyor Tube.png Small Conveyor Tube with a Icon Block Conveyor Junction.png small conveyor junction.

In the event that the Scuttler 'loses grip' and cannot traverse a steep slope loaded with ore or equipment, increase the power of the back wheels from 10% to 75%. This should solve most problems caused by mass. Be sure to reset the power when parked at base and set the battery to recharge. Remember as always, that the ATV's handbrake can be activated with SPACE key. The Toolbar slot 1 showcases the use of a Timer block that toggles the handbrake and a red brake light on the back of the vehicle.

This ATV has two Icon Block Connector.png Connectors, one from the top and one behind. This allows the Scuttler to be used in tandem as a dump truck while the Drill Ship Atmosphere mk.1 acts as an excavator. The Icon Block Solar Panel.png Solar Panel on top supplies the Icon Block Battery.png Battery with power and should be approached from above cautiously as the Drill Ship Atmosphere mk.1 is clumsy and drains power quickly.
