Needs attention How to submit your CV to Eleon

So with the addition of the Warlord faction it's opened up a lot of exciting possibilities for Orbital Patrol Vessels (OPVS), aka AI controlled/NPC cvs. Previously they had to be styled after one of the existing factions, but the Warlord faction is open to any style of shaping, texturing or colouring.

Perhaps you have a CV you think might make for an interesting OPV but not sure on what the criteria is or how to go about submitting it to Eleon for consideration of being added to the default game.

With that in mind I've put together a video that explains the process and the criteria to watch out for:

Additional Criteria
There are a few things which after recording the video I forgot to mention, these are:

• No teleporters are allowed
• No Traders are allowed
• More of a guidance note than actual criteria. Be careful with the material used to make the CV. Carbon insides for example make for a brittle and vulnerable OPV
• You should use static NPCCrew (Alien or Human) to make ships "lived"
• You CAN use NPC spawned NPCs . BUT (!!!) the spawn zone MUST be set up to NOT extent beyond the ships hull at any place (eg. you cannot have NPC spawn on the hull or where the player could "bump" into with his ship
