So this is a more serious game. We'll work together to make a space ship, add our crews/modules, and then venture out into the stars.
I will be governing this game slightly to give it direction after we build the spaceship (if that ever happens.)
[B]Some rules:[/B]
Post pics as .png
declare that you're making an edit so other people know not to ninja your edit. If someone else has declared, wait for them
don't make stupid shit
Don't make explicitly ugly shit (No 2 second stuff)
Make sure to label the purpose of your crewmember when you add him to the crew pic.
[B]CREW[/B]
You can add crew to this picture to man our ship. They can also serve as scale reference for the ship. These guys are all about 1.8 meters, so let's just assume 30 pixels is 2 meters.

[B]THE SHIP[/B]
The ship is build sidescroller style in vacuum. Add modules you think'll be useful for the ship. Core function modules are usually favorable over weapons and neat shit seeking missiles and the like, so try to add core modules at first. Think power generation, hulls, etc.
So let's get started on that, shall we?
The first part of the deck added, plus the head of the security team for size reference.

I declare making the ships power core and engineering deck, will do it tomorrow.

The first part of the the deck becomes the security centre and the head of the ship.

I remove my claim to engineering.
I can not draw that.
Would you guys mind me just drawing a general plan, and you guys filling it in?

Added a fun-loving, totally not going to kill the crew in a fit of robotic "rage", Artificial Intelligence Unit. It will be placed somewhere in the ship once it has expanded a bit, and will oversee ship security, technology, and of course, crew safety (maybe). Watch out for it floating around in the near future.
I will probably add a cyborg army or improve it's sprite in the future, so yeah.

I made this thing, it would be cool if somebody could use it. Unless this ship doesn't need guns
Also is it cool if I just keep making random components to be added on later?
*Scrubbed*
I mean, what happens if we come across a space whale in heat? there isn't really any other option when that happens. We just kinda have to unload a few plasma bolts for the safety of the crew.

No ship is complete without a pointless beeping droid roving the halls doing nothing!
Work in Progress on the general outline:
Tiny lines are doors, arrows are elevators. I'll color code it according to sections. We'll re-expand the image for drawing later.

Those things are just Sandcrawlers for ants. This one is a hollowed out beer keg with circuitry!
The tinier scale could work imo.
What do you guys think?
[editline]25th May 2013[/editline]
Or are you just using that scale for design?
I'm thinking that is just outlining design.

New small size Ship-to-ship ion turret
I'm not good at pixel art on a large scale. It will be interesting to see how this turns out.
Perhaps I can get into it when the RP actually starts.
I could see this turning out amazing with lots of spin off threads, each with its own ship and its own story, voyaging across the stars.
[editline]25th May 2013[/editline]
I am going to see about labeling some sections of the ship.
hold on..

We should decide on the purpose of the ship.
Are we a battle ship, Miners, (*cough* USG Ishimura *cough*) Science vessel, colony ship, or prison ship?
[editline]25th May 2013[/editline]
My two favorites would be a prison ship, or mining ship.
If we make it a prison ship can we name it Vortex Rikers?

That map of the ship is severely lacking a telecommunications wing and engine room.
Dmaster, I am planning on trying to give us a new ship layout. Something a bit more organized, and dedicated to a task. I just need you guys who are going to participate to vote on Mining, Prison, Science, warship, or colony ship.
*Scrubbed*
Either mining (with a combination of science) or prison would both be brilliant to do.

[QUOTE=Sims_doc;40783176]Wouldn't Hydroponics, Sciences, Living Quarters and Engineering be located in the core of the ship? Last thing we need is food and air been suck out into space along with workers.[/QUOTE]
What you have to imagine is if the ship was in three d, it wouldn't matter where it got hit, it would still suck out things.

Cool sprites, Could touch up the colouring of the blue on his helmet though
OK, since I'm teh OP, I'll start the vote on a number of categories:
Agree for Exploration ship
Disagree for War ship
Funny for Mining/industry ship
Winner for dedicated science ship
Also if Mining ship gets the vote I decree we name it the USG Ishimura
:suicide:

I decree that it gets named Vortex Rikers as a throwback to the brilliance of the game Unreal.
