ok guys... today a FEW pictures of new ships! but ill upload the blueprint laaaaaaaaater because some newer things. my workshop link:http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=615803815 The Terran Taiga MK I it is little featured and a specific build.
One of the cool things about Steam Workshop is that if ya change a Creation ya can Re-Blueprint it then press the 'Update Button' to Update your Blueprint to the new Revision.
I might just stop building ships. you and a few others are epic builders! Yeah I's quite cool and another thing is, I knew it would happen - my nights sleep where hunted by ideas, solutions and what not. Might try a few nev things on this ship, migt totally rebuild it, might build and entirely new ship (just as an CV course that's actually what my consept where build to become in a later build)
One idea could be a variant on your Ship that's built in the horizontal direction instead of the former vertical? Could be interesting seeing a Vertical SV of that shape docking into a Hangar of a Horizontal CV, plus Horizontal CV might be more worth a try to Landing Gear & land on stuff.
stop giving me more idea's! my head is allready spinnin' out of control, used an entire block of paper yesterday to scripple them all down where actually planning on building a vertical CV becourse they rarely land on the planets. I've allready got a horizontal Cv i progress (quite a different shape than the sv) and the new sv fits in one of the dockingbays.
my attempt at a 40k thunderhawk. the folding wings have been omited, but otherwise i tried to stay true.
Tyrax Lightning This sneak peak is kinda up your ally. A new horizontal CV with some of the shapes from my SV and a docking space for it (and if you look, there it is, docked. it's going to match up with some of the changes to come to my SV. Spoiler
That's epic! Though might not ever wanna let a enemy target get to that Ship's front-right side for the sake of that front-most Turret...
Wow, you're blocking visibility from your own Cockpit(s) to make it more Dragonflyish? Ya got guts! (Trying to deal with that kinda visibility loss of that magnitude would drive me nuts... Though in my defense, I tend to think in practical & warrior-headed ways. )
more for you! btw, alrdy changed a few things on it...lol ohhh and btw again! just to show docking clearence it's a narrow fit!
Lookin damn good thus far! Have ya tested that huge Turret up top to check & see if even its most forward & down pointing firing angle is still clears shots over the front top nose of the Ship? Wasn't talking about the rear end. I woulda Window'd that entire Front Cockpit Area with no Hull Blocks there if I had been working on that Ship... which is amusing to me cause my current CV, my Tyrax Starter CV, has a Cockpit Area with only a single Window... sitting between my CV's 2 Manual Fire Rocket Launchers & 2 Pulse Lasers. (Now that I think about it, now that my Tyrax Starter CV is at FULL Completion, I still need to fully Screenie it & BP it & get it Shared on these Forums... Forgot to get that done before starting my next Survival Mode SV Build.)
GOD DAMMIT! nope didn't test it before you mentioned it, and as you can tell, it hits the front end of the ship, gotta do something about that, but the turret friendly fire will always be a possibility either turrets shooting at turrets or ship but added these to the side as well, partially protected by blocks, and they cant hit the ship or other future placed turrets you just can't stop giving me extra work can you
Yeah, sometimes I think it's funny to make people's lives miserable by helping them when I get a chance to. Looks like those Side Turrets are getting boxed in to constrain the fire to forward only. Why not just mount Manual Fire Weapons there for the job instead? There's 2 available for the CV, a Rocket Launcher & a Pulse Laser. I'm using 2 of both on my Tyrax Starter CV now. Mounting spinning weapons & not letting them spin kinda defeats their point imho.
yeah it's a funny thing to do but thanks anyway regarding the side turrets.. you would think so, but no, wierd enough they can turn freely in 360 degrees with the barrel all the way down (unless it's different outside of creative), and they can protect the ship from the side and back and regarding forward nonmovable weapons (damn dark pics)
now then, couldent get the flakcannons from fireing on the ship with the location they had, så took away a bit more of the sides and removed the plasmas with the flaks... now they cant hit the ship in any way but dunno if the plasmas looked better :S
