Space Engineers - Say goodbye to Starmade and Blockade runner. - Games

[QUOTE=Avager;43493223]I won't lie to you, good sir, but these words can hurt your feelings :( ... It looks like a shit, literally, with some corns in it. It's way too blocky for an outer hull, inside is very empty and ... lazy, basically an empty shell. I'm very sorry, but I was expecting much more.[/QUOTE] The inside is actually quite full actually, that's just the main control room. Plus. what could I possibly put in the inside with what we have now? And yeah, I fucking hate what the outside turned out to be too. Don't worry, it's already getting a redesign. [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] There's no way I could hate this guy for this post, I'm laughing my ass off at the corn remark.

Are huge ore-laden asteroids with giant holes through them common occurrences?

Has anybody designed an efficient drilling ship yet? Like, one where you could drill in a straight line without the hull taking scrapes and bumps?

[QUOTE=geogzm;43499491]Has anybody designed an efficient drilling ship yet? Like, one where you could drill in a straight line without the hull taking scrapes and bumps?[/QUOTE] I've tried. You need to have about 6-9 drills and design your craft in an unorthodox, less than pretty line formation behind it with copious amounts of thrusters. [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] 4 drills seemed like it would work with ultra-efficient module storage behind but it really didn't.

Started work on a new giant ship and it's asymmetrical, so it's all being handmade rather than having help with the mirrors. Here's my progress so far: [t]http://cloud-3.steampowered.com/ugc/706237801511944936/C5856BD41928971B7E8B9FE4A12D90D8E4103F6D/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/706237801511947827/19D35BF1B9B785ADB5938345AED4594055957E3F/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/706237801511951059/7D6B2E706670D0B9B8671B4655A6BFBFAB60A2E4/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/706237801511956181/D5149863C2A7B61058659DA73F0B375CFE1F4BA2/[/t] I started with the 'tubes' which will be passageways into the ship and hangar, which will be deep inside the hull. So far the skeleton is about 400~ meters. My goal with this one is three things: asymmetrical design, defendable hangar/entrance to ship, and to make it resistant to attacks. If you see the pathway down the middle of the ship, it may seem as a structural weakness - but it's not. Not only is it reinforced well inside, I intend on making both front and back sides of the ship completely self-sufficient if broken apart, also making it even harder to take down. So what do you guys think? Should I scrap the design or keep it? It's slowly becoming harder to build this thing due to it's weird design :v: [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=geogzm;43499491]Has anybody designed an efficient drilling ship yet? Like, one where you could drill in a straight line without the hull taking scrapes and bumps?[/QUOTE] I've made several craft that can drill in even not-straight lines and they don't take any hull damage when I start drilling. Let me find some pictures.

An attempt was made. I think I'll make it larger next time. [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30622781/Screenshots/Space%20Engineers/2014-01-11_00007.jpg[/img]

[editline]11th January 2014[/editline] Seems my inner-hangar can now fit up to 8 of the starting small blue craft. Awesome. [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] Actually, considering how tall it is inside, I can make that 16. Holy shit, time for upside-down parking.

Making it larger. Damn, that LOD looks almost perfect for that smaller one. [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30622781/Screenshots/Space%20Engineers/2014-01-11_00008.jpg[/img]

When I said larger, I mean REALLY larger. Like make it so that little box can hold one of the starting red ships. [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] Hey, I like giant ships. don't blame me :v:

I usually make my ships 1/2 scale of what I'm trying to build. Try going 1/4 this time :v; [editline]11th January 2014[/editline] 250m is 125 blocks. That's not that large.

I tried making this: [img]http://d6holocron.com/wiki/images/2/2a/Earth_Alliance_Omega_Command_Destroyer.png[/img] But the rotors won't work properly and now I'm sad.

Not much to it really, I just have 3 parts and the outside pieces rotate in opposite directions at enough force to overide one gyro. Driven from the middle piece it goes pretty damn fast and looks interesting. I really wanted to make just the middle spin but that involves more complicated things than I can figure out with the toys we have.

So, inspired by an earlier post, who wants me to make a huge Vogon constructor ship? Toblerone-shaped, loaded with weapons, useless, and so fucking ugly that if you look at it for too long you go insane. Agree vs. Disagree.

The only way we know about them: They're yellow They're 'toblerone shaped' I assume this means case as in a triangular prism

[QUOTE=PaperBurrito;43505853]The only way we know about them: They're yellow They're 'toblerone shaped' I assume this means case as in a triangular prism[/QUOTE] hmmm... okay, i'll let my creative juices flow~ [editline]12th January 2014[/editline] not doing it tonight, fighting with my ex has given me a fucking migraine.

Trying to build a battlestar style carrier ship. She already weighs 37,000t and is chewing up 4.5gb worth of memory. I am going to run out before I even get the chance to do anything on the inside. The front looks ugly so I am planning on extending it out more and changing it.

I attempted to build a battlestar. I could never get it to look right, plus it was fukhueg no matter how i tried to build it, so I created my own head-cannon and made my own colonial fleet.

I want multiplayer for this so fucking bad. I've never been able to have a dogfight with someone with actual space physics and not reskinned airplanes.
