[QUOTE=Dukov Traboski;43773662]Why is the space backdrop fully black? Is that a mod?[/QUOTE]It's a skybox of lunar orbit, which you can see in some of the other pictures. There's a program on the official forum that makes it easy to load custom skyboxes, of which there's already a few.

Interior done, doors fine-tuned tank filled, and torpedoes tested. Shes done. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=224172083[/url] [video=youtube;lKJpeGo_p2k]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKJpeGo_p2k[/video] I suck at making videos

that thing looks amazing

Then again, I didnt really build the torpedo pods big enough for anything else. I might do a little remoddeling later andreplace the 4 small torpedo tubes with 2 larger ones.

I'm building the event horizon. It's going [I]disturbingly[/I] well. Seriously, building this thing is giving me the fucking creeps. Anyone wanna add me on steam and help finish it? I got the back half done, I need the front half done and don't know how I can do it.

Release those darn Torpedos that you can breach armor with.

well fuck, back to the drawing board. :suicide:

it looks great, but I'm curious about why you did the complex door mechanism it doesn't seem to make enough of a difference to justify the spontaneous self-destructs :v:

[QUOTE=krail9;43781027]it looks great, but I'm curious about why you did the complex door mechanism it doesn't seem to make enough of a difference to justify the spontaneous self-destructs :v:[/QUOTE] The four bar mechanism in theory lets you make a door that closes really flushly, and the idea was to have a hugely armored hangar door that would effectively retract and cover the hull proper to provide additional protection to the hull with the door armor instead of having them just sticking out sideways in space or something. In practice the amount of work and effort that goes into the four bar really doesn't make it worth it, esp since physics lag causes huge amounts of rotor wobble, and the more rotor wobble you have, the looser your tolerances have to be, defeating the whole flush part. If the physics in the game worked 100% four bars would probably let you do some insane stuff like having the door retract 100% flush into the rest of the hull when its open, and close 100% flush again, but the flex and vibration generally ended up causing the door to hit the hull and ruin shit everywhere so. It's mostly for the cool factor, with it being totally awesome and shit, but in the future I'm probably just gonna stick to normal rotor doors.

well since my event horizon is ass and I got curbstomped by the above, have another project of mine, a double hull ship called the "Twin Hammers". This one is especially fun online when people do exactly what I want them to do- shoot right at the middle, and bifurcate the ship. One half goes flying off while I pilot the other.

please give us the ability to arm and detonate warheads from the menu. Unarmed ones don't explode I would think. Detonation can only be done if it is armed.

So I'm taking a shot at using a new ship building method with an internal frame structure containing all the primary ship components. It's looking pretty good, and it makes WIPs a lot more interesting to look at.

[QUOTE]-Extreme FPS drops induce time dilation which confuse and scatter enemies[/QUOTE] Best feature ship of the year 2014

[QUOTE=damnatus;43782992]Best feature ship of the year 2014[/QUOTE] Damn, I knew I should have added cupholders

I can't wait until there is more interior features. I'm being put off big builds because at the moment I always end up with them being empty or spammed with the same thing.

[quote]Update 01.017.010 has been released. We have added the multiplayer chat and rebalanced the Heavy Armor strength so now it can sustain a much larger amount of damage comparing to the Light Armor. Also added ammo models and icons and the option to disable the weapons in multiplayer mode. Features - multi-player chat added (press Enter to write, another Enter to send) - heavy armor resistance. In the previous update we added heavy armor, but its resistance when compared to light armor wasn't large enough. This update rebalanced heavy armor strength and now it can sustain a lot more damage (missile explosions, bullet impacts, collisions, warhead explosion). Try it! - ammo models and icons - when pasting, CTRL + mouse wheel can be used to move paste position closer/further - option to disable multiplayer weapons Fixes - fixed velocity of rotating blocks when split - rewritten toolbar, now saved with world - fixed missile collision damaged blocks (sometimes it went through) - fixed open/close door issue - fixed cube building gizmo - fixed pasting active drill - fixed 3rd person camera rotation[/quote] Yay chat and better armor

[QUOTE=Mort and Charon;43783108]I can't wait until there is more interior features. I'm being put off big builds because at the moment I always end up with them being empty or spammed with the same thing.[/QUOTE] I'm looking forward to a higher variety of detailed blocks. We won't need to mix block types once we have blocks that make sense for the different sized ships.
