I refuse. I wanna make a big ship even if it's just to look at.

anyways, Replacing the fin/spine/ram thingy dropped it too 6,111,434 Kg. Now onto replacing the engine.

My biggest ship to date is about 700 blocks long, it's a big super carrier
It literally can't move with over 100 large reactors and enough thrusters to push those engines to over draw power.
It weighs about 17,000,000 and is ugly as sin
it's not worth it
There should be massive thrusters and reactors. 15x15x15 reactors and 20x20x10 thrusters.

This weighs about 55,000,000 and the design is cool.

Not to mention it can actually move, even if slowly. It comes down to knowing how to design large ships like this.

Here's the outer-picture. Some things aren't shown due to the render distance, sadly.

the game will die when its complete and you try to move it.
Replacing all blocks made it only 2,911,376 Kg.
A big step down from the 11,282,811 Kg.
I only suggest using the stronger blocks for integral parts of the frame. This is a good example from one of my ships, where I used it for the thinner neck:

Plus this shade of green is much better:

I don't really plan on using this ship for anything else then "LOOK WHAT I MADE" so I don't even really need heavy blocks.

Still have lots to do on it, and it isn't perfect, but EVE!

So some damage to the blocks above the lights made some interesting light patterns on the floor.

I must say it looks rather phallic in design
[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;43830875]Nah, I'll make one and post it now that I have the time to do so.[/QUOTE]
Ok, so I finally got around to making that reusable torpedo ship. To be honest though, its reusability is kinda questionable since if you don't get the spear centered perfectly it flies a bit wonky, but whatever. We're assuming the pilot can die in this scenario.
I made it as one continuous piece to ensure perfect centering. The connecting blocks must be removed to arm the torpedo.

Just before it hits. Notice how quickly you can slow down while the missile keeps going:

Great, FP's dirty mind makes them think it's a hammered-penis :v:
I kinda like it's simplistic design.
I built an asymmetrical carrier last night. I loooove asymmetry.
This memory leak error or what ever it is is making it real hard to build this. I have to reset the game after like, every 200 blocks now or it won't let me set blocks down.

can't say we didn't warn you.
Other then that though the ship is, for the most part, finished and still no lag. It's light for it's size and can still move with the few thrusters I have in it.

Nah, It's just because my computer is 32bit. If I was running on a 64bit I'd be having no problem right now.
if manufacturers keep making 32-bit hardware for much longer i'm going to freak
