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

Remember my grav launcher thing from a while ago? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BU0Pgp_RLn4[/media] I went and built a ship onto it and made it slightly more faster, launching large and small ship blocks at the players maximum speed limit allowing projectiles to pack a little more punch and slowly catch up with any fleeing craft.

It's not really meant for any combat, mostly for launching players in small craft from point A to B in a straight line using inertia alone to save on fuel, if anyone actually manages to make one of these in survival mode that is.

"really not the best looking" Uhhhhhhhhhh I think that looks magnificent, I have a tendency to make controllable space bricks.

your best looking is probably the most amazing thing on earth if that is rushed.

Is that... a [i]rail-gun/aircraft carrier?[/i] I can't say [b]yes[/b] enough.

Someone should make the avengers helicarrier, seems like something thatd transition well into SE

[QUOTE=krail9;44708448]definitely need to turn off thruster damage and stack them up though[/QUOTE] That's fucking cheating though, having a large thruster right behind another large thruster.

Just realized large ship missile launchers and functioning hangar doors are a thing since I stopped working on the Hyperion Cruiser. Gotta work on that some more. It may only accelerate at 0.1 m/s^2 and take 2 minutes to turn, but at least I'll be able to blow shit up and have a place to park my Starfury. [editline]2nd May 2014[/editline] Well that was disappointing. The ship is so damned big that only one set of rocket launchers would actually show up on screen at once. So much for my barrage of missiles.

Tea guy, extend a rail gravity field over the top of the aircraft carrier and add a single artificial mass block to your fighters, then when it comes time to launch fighters the fighter pilot can enable the mass block and be catapaulted out. When we can hotkey specific blocks this will work better.

When we can hotkey specific blocks this will work better.[/QUOTE] Might as well just use thrusters, they're just as fast, but it is fun to build gravity launchers for fighters. Remember to put the mass block near the front so the fighter doesn't try to spin. When mass blocks first came out, I played around with building mass relays that used gravity generators to hurl a small fighter into another relay a few kilometers away that would slow it back down. Kind of clunky, but it did work.

Been playing this too much lately. New mid-size large ship, i guess it'd be classed as a corvette tho its a bit big.

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;44709206]That's fucking cheating though, having a large thruster right behind another large thruster.[/QUOTE] Its not cheating if you want to have your replica flying.

It would be nice if there were larger thrusters available, for when one wishes to use the thruster damage realism setting; more powerful than a large thruster, larger, but not as efficient as stacking large thrusters. Speaking of which, I think some bloke made a titan thruster on the SE forums, but can't remember what thread it's in.

It would be nice if you could overload the thrusters in exchange for more power consumption :smile: [editline]3rd May 2014[/editline] And i apologize before-hand with going off topic with this post, but anyone from the USA please check out this video from boogie2998. It has to do with the possible changing of our net neutrality laws. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azAmiANwhJs[/url]. It could effect anyone using internet in the US/US commonwealths on a fairly dramatic level.

I dislike the shape of the large thrusters on big ships. They shouldn't be so wide, Or they could at least have two thrusters For that amount of empty space. There's just too much room that isn't filled by anything but can't be used.

2x6 is an annoying size, I hope they add stuff like, 1x1, 1x2, 2x2 and so on.

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;44712852]2x6 is an annoying size, I hope they add stuff like, 1x1, 1x2, 2x2 and so on.[/QUOTE] We already have 1x1 thrusters :v

I can't get that titian thruster to work, does it not work with the recent updates? or does the auto installer just suck?

[QUOTE=Thunderbolt;44712917]We already have 1x1 thrusters :v[/QUOTE] Shut up, you know what I mean.

[QUOTE=Civil;44710634]Its not cheating if you want to have your replica flying.[/QUOTE] Usually if you have proper places for thrusters, it can fly quite well without stacking them or anything. Although the ships people make replicas of dont usually have sideways or up/down thrusters, so you end up having to make them inside it, or in my case, replacing the glowy blue lights with thrusters.

thrusters just need more shape variation. [editline]3rd May 2014[/editline] this is probably icing on the cake, but sometimes i find that my ships look a little awkward because the way the thrusters are designed make it so that the theme im going with gets a little put off by their textures

[IMG]http://puu.sh/8xLfD.png[/IMG] Some guy found a weak spot in my armor and popped both of my reactors witch in turn i lost gyros and thrusters and rammed the ship into the station.

good page, sexy ships

always keep multiple small reactors scattered around the ship (usually a couple in each end depending on how big it is), because then you won't be helpless once your reactor room is destroyed

If you want to reinforce everything, make a sort of heavy armour skeleton inside, top stop it breaking apart easily

It's so long that the slopes that make up most of the hull don't even load if you want to see the whole length.. About 175 blocks long, 70 blocks or so wide, another 50 tall.
