    Today...I launched an HV out of a CV in space and "flew" it onto a planet...used it to mine...scraped it for parts, and used the parts to make an SV in the factory to fly back up into space back to my CV...

    If only I had a "deconstructor" the circle of life would be complete.

    Cool. What's with the colored blocks? A big ruler?

    Drill turret range is short a little.
    So, I designed ultra-mini size Drill CV.

    Yeah, i think someone else made one and i thought why not making one yourself?
    You see, before i star building a new (big) ship or concept, i use to make a rough concept drawing of it to get the proportions right (or at least how i want them).

    Well it's a survival SV so it gets from point a to point b. I could have made it bigger but got tired of digging . That's why the constructor is on top. No more room inside the ship. lol

    Yeah that's a great idea. Too many times I get stuff lopsided because I miscount a side.

    Thanks. LOL It does look like a Flying Oxygen generator with a gun. I would have never noticed that until you said something. lol It's not that much bigger than the large Oxygen generator . So far Drones rather attack my base first than the ship so maybe the game's AI isn't sure if it's a ship. lol

    Greetings from balmy Aitis where the weatherman predicts daytime highs of 200 C and showers of cinders. I reworked my CV while fulfilling my quest on Skillon. It was fun redoing in Survival mode. It's much uglier (Part of the rework was to rotate the donut to the vertical) th0ugh better for my purposes now.

    It's fairly simple at the moment. I'll add to the house while I do my quest bits on Aitis. My stays on Ningues and Skillon have left me with over 1100 blue crystals and there are more of them here on Aitis.

    That's funny. To me, it would make a perfect mini-skyscraper if you landed it on it's tail.

    LOL Everytime I try to build a ship using the open cockpit I get a weird little design like this.

    When these guys raid a base it's hilarious and fun to watch. They just try stuff and see if it works. lol

    Finally found Pentaxid on Oscutune! Not that I had been looking for them that hard yet - but its still nice to find them. Now I know Im not stranded here atleast.

    [​IMG]
    Man these deposits are TINY in Oscutune compared to Akua. Only 160 Promethium here for example - I got used to them being several thousand.

    [​IMG]
    Got started on a new vehicle - an assault fighter/bomber. Tested "stick-it-in-a-ceiling" method to make building easier, seemed to work nicely.

    [​IMG]
    Basic shape is starting to come together. Conclusions from the first test flight - speed/forward acceleration is fine but otherwise needs a bit more of everything. Not too much.

    Having trouble fitting through the hangar door, though. Would hate to cut this down smaller :/ Solution - we need a bigger boat! Or maybe just bigger hangar...

    That's bad assdom right there. I always built a pit in the floor, but hanging it... NICE!

    And the Spanish wording... Hangaria! very nice indeed.

    Cool! I never thought of that. Building in survival mode is more satisfying for me. Although I had enough of everything to spawn a new one, I just did an extensive rework of my CV in survival and it was a much more engaging process that way. It also saved me the trouble of salvaging the old one.

    Wow.. I have docked my SV like that before but never thought about using that as a way of building my SV.
