I was the guy in that silver mess of blocks that flew into what looked like your bridge and blew up

[QUOTE=SpasticPinoy;43579616]I was the guy in that silver mess of blocks that flew into what looked like your bridge and blew up[/QUOTE] I saw you hit the windows and I was "lol he was no clue where the bridge is"

I had no clue I just flew into the first thing that looked important because I was so laggy and had to make a split decision of what to hit.

[QUOTE=SpasticPinoy;43579715]I had no clue I just flew into the first thing that looked important because I was so laggy and had to make a split decision of what to hit.[/QUOTE] It was funny because shortly after that I disabled the inertia stabilizers and ran down to the emergency bunker bridge. Right then bob starts tearing the entire top bridge off like a damn buzzsaw. In the end I kept the one remaining reverse thruster and upwards thruster pegged and eventually escaped him.

[QUOTE=Mattk50;43576074]I take offense to this design Any escape pods should be optimized for maximum reverse thruster power with guns facing the same way, you are escaping after all and if you cant shoot pursuers with the guns they are pointless anyways. Additionally, you get to watch as your ship is torn to bits as you fly away backwards with great speed.[/QUOTE]V:smile:V Like I said, it morphed into a fighter at some point, and in any case i'd hate to navigate backwards, even if it is just an escape pod.

New ship that I have been working on the last couple of days. Her hull is pretty much done but I still have a lot of internal sections I need to fill up in her forward sections as well as having a look over the reactor bay.

blocky, but there's something really nice about how it looks. maybe it's the simplicity i love the sides

I'd add a zig zag pattern on the sides, to make it look all structural and shit and the front is ugly [editline]18th January 2014[/editline] and encase those god damn engines in blocks

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;43575447]Your headlights were installed backwards, hire new cheap foreign labor.[/QUOTE] How the shit did I not see that. Thanks man. I'm part polish so I am the cheap labor :v: no hatin' on you polish guys.

i thought poland couldn't into space?

So I made my own online game, and apparently, my game left itself _/:v:\_

So are the large ship weapons supposed to not be usable?

[QUOTE=evilweazel;43583786]So are the large ship weapons supposed to not be usable?[/QUOTE]Basically. They'll be enabled at some point in the near future.

hey dudes i need some dimensions. can someone go in-game and give me the width and length of the red ship - in blocks - along with how big the ramp block is in large ship blocks? i'm going to build a mockup of my Star Destroyer project in Milkshape you see

Well, since we're showing off ships, here's the first actual ship I made (with an actual interior in mind and not just an agglomeration of armor blocks).

It looked a bit too bulky for my tastes, but I edited it a bit and it looks better than before.

The blue light is supposed to be like Cherenkov radiation, I guess. That's probably not a good thing to have, though.

I made a copy and used it for missile testing and it was basically shredded. The turrets it's coated with might deter small craft, though, depending on what the devs implement in that regard.

That profile shot makes it look a bit like a Hiigaran destroyer.

[QUOTE=Treelor;43584050]That profile shot makes it look a bit like a Hiigaran destroyer.[/QUOTE] Hmm, I can see that. Maybe I'll try that design in the future.

God, people and their super awesome huge spaceships. I feel like I lost interest building ships 0_0 looking at all the awesomeness.

It'd look better if you went for less white light and instead went for either Yellow or blue for that warm/ominous feel. White's too sterile. Maybe some red lights would be good too.

fun fact: if you can see Cherenkov radiation, you've already been given a lethal dose of it [editline]18th January[/editline] (if it's in the air without a dozen inches of lead glass separating it from you)

Cherenkov radiation would be a cool feature. It is Space [I]Engineers[/I] afterall and Engineers have to find solutions to problems.

Considering the self-contained nature of the SE reactors, it doesn't seem likely one would see Cherenkov radiation; but damn would it look cool.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;43585649]Considering the self-contained nature of the SE reactors, it doesn't seem likely one would see Cherenkov radiation; but damn would it look cool.[/QUOTE] Maybe when they get damaged?

[QUOTE=Mr.Rook;43585779]Maybe when they get damaged?[/QUOTE]Presumably, if the reactor is damaged to the point that the coolant fluid is exposed to vacuum and thus visible, it'd probably instantly vaporise in the sudden lack of pressure and immediately force itself out of the reactor, meaning the reactor is on the verge of imminent failure and there'd be no medium for Cherenkov radiation to be produced in. It'd look cool if there was some visible indication that the reactors are radioactive, but i'd rather the devs focus on other things. In any case, it can be suitably simulated with coloured lights.

found this on the default small ship [img]http://i.imgur.com/npidc0P.png[/img] heavy armor block?

[QUOTE=ZnT00;43585887]found this on the default small ship [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/npidc0P.png[/IMG] heavy armor block?[/QUOTE]Yeah; all the heavy blocks have that sort of digi-camo look. I'm guessing the devs forgot to replace that block with light armour.

But that's recently appeared, my older saves don't have that on them.

That's odd. I only noticed it recently on the default fighter, but I simply assumed it had always been there and I didn't notice.

Made a few changes to my ship and added the pieces coming off the middle of the ship. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/EEdsrvW.jpg[/thumb][thumb]http://i.imgur.com/CI9TcRR.jpg[/thumb] Does anyone have any ideas to what I can do to improve the front nose of the ship.
