To do: Verify relationship between WallDestroyTime and actual shots needed, my tests show game speed seems to affect it for some unfathomable reason, but that might just be on my CPU/OS

The Chrome Crusher, also known as the Giant Drilling Vehicle, is the most powerful mining vehicle in the Rock Raiders fleet. It is a massive four-wheeled motorized vehicle equipped with a Large Drill, a radar, a mining laser, and a huge cargo hold; it can carry two drivers, though it's usually shown with just one. The Chrome Crusher has become an icon of the Rock Raiders theme and features prominently in nearly every piece of media.
In the PC game
In the Windows PC version of LEGO Rock Raiders, the Chrome Crusher is classified as a large vehicle, and requires five Energy Crystals for power. A Rock Raider must be trained as a driver to use a Chrome Crusher.
The Chrome Crusher moves at a sluggish 0.3 blocks per second, but makes up for it by being an extremely powerful drilling machine. It takes 0.4 seconds to drill Dirt, 0.8 seconds to drill Loose Rock, only one second to drill Hard Rock, and four seconds to drill Seams.
Along with a Large Drill, the Chrome Crusher is also equipped with a very powerful Mining Laser that can be used by double-selecting the vehicle. It has a WallDestroyTime of 3.5 for Dirt, 7 for Loose Rock, and 10.5 for Hard Rock, and every four laser blasts drains one Energy Crystal. Though made pointless for mining by the vehicle's drill, its laser is still far more powerful than the one from the Large Mobile Laser Cutter for some reason. Like the Large Mobile Laser Cutter, however, its mining laser is quite useful as a makeshift weapon; it has a firing range of 3 blocks, and does at least -20 HP damage or more to units, letting the Chrome Crusher effectively defend itself against Monsters.
Despite possessing a radar and cargo hold, neither of these are functional in-game.
Upgrades
There are two upgrades available for the Chrome Crusher:
- Drill: Costs 20 pieces of Ore
This adds a second drill to the vehicle, making it plow through walls in less than a second. It now only takes 0.2 seconds to drill Dirt, 0.4 second for Loose Rock, and 0.5 seconds to drill Hard Rock and Seams. The number of shots its mining laser takes to destroy walls is not changed. - Engine: Costs 15 pieces of Ore
Doubles the number of cylinders on the engine, doubling the vehicle's route speed from 0.3 blocks per second to 0.6 blocks per second.
