So I completed my first cargo ship

It has a full interior and can carry 20 large cargo containers with an additional hanger/cargo bay in the back for smaller cargo, here are some pics of it wrecked

All I have left to do it is paint the sucker and create a movable motor turret to attach to the top of main docking port and she'll be ready for service.

Something that fucking cool can't be just a cargo ship.

more like a carrier or destroyer

small ship containing a 100kg stone in a 2x3 capsule of light armour, with 4 small power gens at the front (someone said they explode?) and 4 gyroscopes at the back.

Also I had a misfire.

That's the barrel and pieces of the ammo carriage coming towards me.

[editline]15th December 2013[/editline]

Ok, I think the reason that first impact was so massive is because it was within range of the gravity gens. I remember something about them affecting damage somehow?

At longer ranges, the damage is far less. The speed of each shot is very inconsistent - sometimes they bounce off just leaving a dent, other times they obliterate a giant spherical hole.

you should try using uranium instead, i hear it's got some ridiculous mass to it. it might just break the capsule too early though

How do I magic up uranium? I mined the stone for this.

You get it from the reactors in the red ship on Easy Start 1.

I would post more interior screenshots since I feel like I did an okay job with the bow and stern engine rooms but I don't want to spam the page.

also, that jet-black material on some of the asteroids there is uranium. the deposits aren't exactly common, but they're huge nonetheless.

working on probably my first proper large ship. begun with the interior which is pretty obvious I suppose. not really sure how I'm supposed to put a hull on this, but eh, time will tell once I finish the area those stairs lead to

[editline]15th December 2013[/editline]

how are you guys planning out your ships? I literally just smashed some interior together and now I'm hoping that I'll be able to fit some interesting hull around it all :v:

[Healthpoint]

I just bought this.

I have no idea [I]what[/I] the fuck I'm doing, but I'm having tons of fun just smashing those two big ships into the space station on that prefab world.

I'm gonna try building me a spaceship next.

come try and take my cargo, pirates.

[bobsmit]

I think it's cool that turrets have to be attached manually. Needing additional construction ships is cool. Feels like Homeworld.

[woolio1]

I've been away for a few days. Anything new happen?

[Ganerumo]

I suck at building big ships :suicide:

[Bletotum]

I love the double-motor design for turret maneuverability.

With the second motor update bringing in entity settings, I hope to see gravity generators get a strength and distance slider.

What if they were the same slider? More strength affecting a smaller area. You'd want high strength generators for rail guns, and wouldn't want those generators affecting the gravity over the whole ship. You also wouldn't want players flying their ships with ridiculous gravity levels around other ships to troll them, so the limited distance would help that.

Meanwhile, smaller strength generators would affect large areas, allowing for minimal interference with other ships.

Having these two settings be the same slider on this inverse relationship would also let the generators make sense to use up equal amounts of energy from the reactors.

[editline]15th December 2013[/editline]

[QUOTE=woolio1;43197300]I've been away for a few days. Anything new happen?[/QUOTE]

Motors have more settings, allowing for neat contraptions.

[Mbbird]

I still think a check for "is there a ship in the direction gravity should be pulling" should be done, so we can stop being accelerated out the bottom or side of our ships at 104 m/s.

[HumanAbyss]

What are you guys doing with motors to make them so damn cool? I'm struggling hard core to figure out anything "cool" with them. I've got some decent turrets but they're very simple and some of the shit you guys are doing, I just don't get yet.

Does it look better or worse than the older version?
