havent been on this website for a while since this is where my downvotes where coming from, but been having fun in Xcal's community he built, streaming and building, even updating my AEGIS builds every sunday and doing empyrion monthly challenges, im having a blast, so hows everyone been?
I stoped working on the Scenario, gives me more time to build what I like and prefer more… CV's Actualy doing a re-build of one from Scratch of an existing one - for the very first time, too much 'space' to move around and rearange… Now that it's class I think of starting from scratch again… with another work-method… Spoiler: where i stop and start a fresh build, this time Thanks alot, I've been updating it Performance wise… Spoiler: stats Replacing 'a' with 'some more of other' thrusters can make a big difference EDIT PS: In the back is the Starwarden MK1 by H.P. Lovecraft, which is NOT what I rebuilt, that would be the CVX Revenant MK2 (a remod of the 'Aurora', I think?) by Goons. However, the Starwarden is a great ship, very, very detailed and an awesome source of Inspiration!
I wanted to put together the smallest possible warp sv I could manage. Initially I made just a tiny non warp pod for my CV to be docked in a hangar only 1 block height 2 block wide and 2 block deep. In the end I made a non warp with and without passenger and also a warp with and without passenger And a warp passenger version in HWS livery (intended to pass out to stranded shipless players)
I been cool myself mate, playing on HWS and switched my play style from PvE to PvP. So much fun, like a new game haha, have to build all new ships and very differently. Finally I wont get bored just lounging around on a boat with tonnes of unused ore lay about in boxes for months.
Worked on the Midnight planet. It's inspired by this explanet. A blistering, high gravity planet with a dense atmosphere and almost no visibility with huge gold deposits guarded by Ghyst POI complexes. I don't really have any screenshots since, well, it's dark. Really dark. Night vision is an absolute necessity and even then you just barely make out the nearby terrain features. Fun fact: Ghyst POIs have core self destruct switches. Throwing them is a bad idea on this planet unless you have epic armor on.
Started a new game after getting my poor SV nuked by a Zirax POI. Decided to try turning Volume/Mass on and holy poop, it's a whole new experience. Might end up having to build lots of HVs and SVs for different jobs. I set the resource amount to Rich to alleviate this issue, however. Also quickly finding that green hovers suck.
They're great for making a very compact runabout HV with minimal capabilities since you don't need thrusters, but yeah, as soon as you get into cargo or weapons, you have to switch to the blue ones.
I'm in middle of another bout of Builder's Block... powered partially by my OCD being a tyrant as usual... Glad to have ya back here. Yeah... they were Implemented before Weight & Volume were... nowadays they're mostly for makin custom Hover Bikes/Starter HVs. Even for Starter HVs they might be runnin outta use.
Worked on the Pelican CV refit a bit more. This time working on the passenger area. Medical got an upgrade, full suite. More than just a med station. So gave it a glass barrier to separate it from the primary living space. Entertainment suite is really the same, just shifted the walls a bit. And, oh yeah, yesterday I started putting the walls up in engineering. Not done yet, but the space is making progress.
Trying a new Building style.... using larger block Segments... it's called: copy-paste Spoiler: images It's quite fun and very much enjoying see 'DONE' hallways come into existence and connect to each other But... Getting alot of quit&mail Errors, as continue wont work. And quite often i cant select blocks anymore.. only restarting the game helps.. very annoying! Anways, currently laying out the hallways for the ship, helps alot to estaminate the actual required dimensions of the ship!
Looks huge A coincidence? Your Ship looks, in parts, pretty similar to the Monster that @spanj created in his Streams ( I believe his is for the 'Shattered Realm'- Server)
As I am now honored with the Polaris I thought, after finding 8 of my 11 Planets- 2 more and the Alien - it is time to place a Dimplomatic Building within the ZOC of the Polaris. (BA) Roman Embassy - WIP (yeah, I noted the Typo)
Making progress with the 2nd start of the rebuild. Copy pasting helps alot to get instant satisfaction while building, and leaves much more time for non-standart-things. Spoiler: Images Making shure the different stairways connect. Adding another crossing Main 'Connection hall' (still deciding which lamps to use though) Living area - on the fly (not copied) The new one looks alot slimmer while aleady having thruster to each direction (left centred cv)
As I have now several Outposts - and Embassies - erected on several Planet I have now the difficult choice, while sitting on THE Barren Planet, on which of them I want to stay...and prosper. I somewhat finished the Embassy in the main Level just without furniture. As Romans are know to bath a lot... and the first appearance counts a lot I finished the Outside with Landing Pad+Repair Station...looted 4 of them...
Haha, awesome idea for the water! EDIT: I'd like to see the columns actualy touch the ceiling they hold. (2nd Picture)
