Goblin - CV

small pirate transport, aka a glorified warp drive with advanced contructor. -------------

notes: - NO shield, NO gravity generator, NO 3x3 turrets, NO parking for sv/hv, NO growing, NO spotlights - very minimalistic/small build + cheap and therefor missing most comfort things - 1 cockpit + a bench (+behind captin chair is a block free if you want a passenger seat in the cockpit - 1 advanced constructor, 80k + 48k cargo + large box(16k) - 4x sentrys, 16k ammo (bottom sentry activates with landing gear) - has the usual stuff: o2 station,armor locker, fridge, food processor, wifi, detector - 1 medchamber, 1 bed, 1 shower (rest is missing) - cockpit and the back area are oxigenated - top door to the outside is next to the warp drive so you get cooked there very fast - signal: the ramp to a cargo controller which you can acess from the ground when landed - "free" blocks/spots: right behind captain chair (but blocks movement a bit), remove/switch bench at foor procesor if you need for example a medical device, remove/switch console at the top (purely deco so it look nice from the outside through the window) -fuel/o2/pentaxid-tank stuff only acess through p-menu (its is behind constructor at the back there which you can somewhat click if you postition right, but it is pixelhunting or crouch below the constructor and get burned, both bad options^^) -works in reforged (in CPPU+flys)

(warp drive is the front, might be a bit unclear with the pictures, since the workshop pic is from the back)

other ramblings of the author: [i]originally i build this a while back as some small/mini cv, but never textured it because it was+is in a weird spot. my backup-plan was to use this on a poi maybe as deco, but for this it turned out a bit to big and has to much detail - mostly the reason why this sat in my work-in-progress list for some time now. for a first cv this a bit on the "too small" side most of the time. the challenge with the first spawn was kinda a good reason to pick this build up again and finally texture and refine it a bit. i really liked the shape and the transporter/trader feeling this has to it, why i did not scraped/deleted the blueprint/build. do not get me wrong it is still a bad starter cv compared to other options you have and how the game works, since everything will kill you. in the current state of the game this is mostly a rp or high risk build or maybe an emergency CV as backup to run away.

this can work as a level 7 CV if you switch some stuff. i originally had this with 2x small generators and 1 fuel tank. a bit of a tetris situation at the back there. the warp drive is level 10 anyway and the pentaxid tank position is not really in a good reachable spot (without radiation not possible), kinda why i went this a larger generator and fuel tank, since it takes the same space + you get the advanced constructor.

for the style/texturing it was between some generic trader/spaceship or pirates. in the end i felt the pirate fits more, since this is mostly a "see danger and run" and just take the scrap/loot you can get easy, which fits what the pirates are doing quite well in my opinion. the sentrys are mostly for predators (+ deco/roleplay/rp), obviously a drone or enemy cv will kill you. so this is really just a way to get off the planet fast, maybe pick up some wreckages or not defended POI's and move to the next. with the reference to this overall playstyle i picked the name, which i hope fits with the generic goblin picture of a weak creature.

the LCD text is intentionally not readable. it is some style with rotating letters and symbols and mixing them to create some random scifi looking placeholder texts/fonts. i recently started to experiment with that and found this quite good, since it does not limit the language to english speaking only. it has the downside that the lcd are mostly decorative, but since this is their primary purpose anyway i find no problem with that. making them a bit more generic is a bonus in my book, if you do not like it you can easily put normal text in this one.

i had a bit of fun with the workshop front picture. not sure why i thought the grafitti style would fit in the first place, but i think it works well for some reason here. the idea just poped into my head with the name and wanted to do something different. i posted the fonts used at the end, not sure if people are interested in that, all free stuff of course(aka cc0).[/i]

Your First Spawn Goal

Vanilla or REFORGED accepted

Build what you would consider to be your first Factory Spawn Goal in your play through.

This can be a starter HV/SV or The CV that gets you off the planet. It can be a base if you prefer to hunker down and accumulate resources. I'm looking for the creation that gives you motivation to commit to that initial grind.

I'm not asking for your Tier 1 HV. ======================
