This is my first big vanilla build.
Everything is connected together and both doors and lights are sensor activated and all rooms are airtight and contains oxygen. You can move around inside the whole ship without using your jetpack even up and down through the vertical walkways. It's possible because of a gravitational tilt in those areas.
Filetype:
This file is a world-file. if you'd rather prefer a blueprint-version then load this world-file, when you're inside the world go near the ship and hit Ctrl + B while you're looking at it. After you've done that It will take a bit of time to load in but then you should have your blueprint. I did publish a blueprint-version of this ship... but i was too fast and deleted the original-blueprint it was published from and now I'm unable to update the blueprint-version any further with the method that i know of.....
The Hangar:
There is a Hangar on the underside of the frontpart of the ship were i've reversed the gravity inside to make the hangar more effective. I've done this to get around the problem with (the available space within the hull of the ship) vs (the space required for all the wiring).
Specifications:
- Aproximitely 21000 tons - 333 Batteries - 4 Large Reactors - 24 Small Reactors - Jump capability of just over 5000 km. - 160 gyroscopes - 12 cryo pods
More info. about the ship:
This is a big ship and it is slow but not too slow and it has roughly the same thrust output in all directions which makes it more maneuverable. The ship is not ment for battle and cannot take much firepower but it can endure a little bit of damage since many exposed areas on the surface are 2 light-armor blocks thick and it has weaponsystems too, and lot's of jumpdrives to escape if needed.
The Smaller Planetary Ship:
After an update to the world i've added a smaller planetary ship that can be attached to the underside of the Cruiser. The module is fully equipt with refinery, assembler, medical bay, etc... Everything is connected together. Lights and door are sensor-activated. The ship can run the H thrusters in 2 different modes to reserve the hydrogen. It atmospheric thrusters are capable of lifting the planetary ship on the surface. But when entering or escaping it's recommended to turn on all the H-thrusters so you don't hit the ground or become unable to escape the planet at all.
The thrust-booster:
In this world there is also a second module which can function as a thrust booster for the ship itself and the module is also capable of lifting the ship down on the surface of a planet. The thrust-module is not required to run the ship at all and can be removed or deleted completely without any problems at all. It only has the purpose to make the ship able to fly in atmosphere.
Survival Friendly:
- The ship itself should be survival friendly. - The Smaller Planetary ship should also be survival friendly too. - The extra module can deplete all the hydrogentanks within a few of minutes if you fly down on a planet so its effectiveness depends of how it's used.
The Design:
When i build it i was mainly inspired from the looks of some ships from the StarTrek universe especially the klingon ships. The looks of the underside of the ship was inspired from the Jem'Hadar battle cruiser from StarTrek. I also got a little bit of inspiration from the "Argent trade Ship" made by: Damoran
