This thing is now fully built and 1 of two large Ships (the smaller of the two) inside my Super-Carrier class ship, it's earned its place as a trusty, modified Corvette that helps with moon based trips and tighter flying that the Super-Carrier itself cannot carry out (those wondering, the Super-Carrier is currently 27.8 million KG and climbing and even with impressive thrust capabilities, planetary missions are incredibly tasking for Moons and nearly impossible for proper Planets)

The RCSP - Challenger now runs under the tag: FTV - Corrupted Challenger.
We welcome it into our Consuming Family...

Me and my friends found we could replace the antenna and install a railgun. 10/10 would ship again :). Also GLORY TO THE RCSP.

i see, i may need to see if i can convert it to solely hydrogen but otherwise the ship is perfect for what i need

I try making all my ships as survival capable as possible but it has space to modify its internals to your needs, its main source of power is a large reactor in the middle of the ship with hydrogen production in the rear engineering area.

I must ask about this ship, as it may become a modified Corvette stationed inside my Super Carrier... Is this thing Survival capable and what is it's source of power? (can it be shifted over to Hydrogen for Ice usage?)

LCDs are running with two scripts if irc but the programmable blocks were paused to stop performance issues since they were the first scripts to come out so they hit performance hard.

Are the LCDs supposed to work or is all the text placeholder?

I've loved the shape of the front section - the only part mostly intact in the random encounter. I finally put power to the beacon and found it's proper name. Now I can see it in it's full glory!

Not enough thrust to get into planets and fly. As you can see it has no atmospheric thrusters; but you could add on some large atmo or hydrogen thrusters to the outside to help it land, just make sure to have enough hydrogen to leave the atmosphere.

Can this go in and out of planets?

YES, i finally figured out what that random encounter was finally!

would this be good for crash survival

Great design Venom

Thank you, must have turned off mirror mode accidentally :P
It is now properly wired up.

Hey Venom, just downloaded this ship. the right Hydro thrusters are not conveyered up. in the back.

THank you,

Update: Added Hydrogen thrusters and 2 rear large ions for better performance, enjoy!

Really nice, huge fan, I was planet side for a little while and had to go back to space to try this out, though I did get some thruster damage from both side covered thrusters. Removed the covering pieces and seemed fine. A connector of some sort in the hanger would have been sweet too but manageable. Nice work.

Venom would you mind a few of your ships getting shot up and spawns as crashed ships, with credit to you?

love it it's well rounded good wepons armor and even a hangar very nice

reminds me of the engines on the Pegasus from BSG, love it

It does. ^^ Thanks.

My mind is like a chrome window with a hundred tabs open... But all in alphabetical order; organized chaotic if you will. Usually I get ideas in my head from a combination of other ship designs from movies and games that I've seen (rarely do make a design I scetched) or from my childhood Lego designs.

When I build ships I ask myself "can you run your hand over it like an old corvette?", meaning is it streamlined to where you wouldn't cut your hand if you ran it over the ship... Weird I know but the aerodynamics look and feel is what you get when you do it right! It's a lot to take in but I hope that answers your question

Firstly most of my designs are spontaneous and unplanned until I finally have to do that part of the ship. For my designs I start making the ships outer shell first, doing so give me more freedom and leeway when making interesting shapes and designs, then I fill I the interior with as much useful stuff as I can. I always have to include the following: 3 main colors and 4 shades of grey to paint the ship, automatic LCD script 2 and Phil's ship diagnostic script, room names on lcds, and a lot of interior walls to create better floors/walls, and using half blocks to create indents in the hull.

I like the interior a lot. So many things in a tight space and yet packed into a cool hull shape.
Luv the glass cockpit. And the space usage and overall the internal structure/walk way layout is nicely done.

May I ask you how you approach building your ships?
Do you have a reference, a sketch or something? Do you just build it, or do you kinda pre-plan the internal layout to fit a pre-determined hull shape, or is it the other way round?
I'm curious...
All my ships are realistic / survival ready, but they are usually not streamlined for also being pretty and/or compact.

needed a ship like this for my new base

i took some damage i reapaired all the damaged parts i could see but it said the air vents were leaking/damaged how do i fix this?

@Venom415 your rear hangar and its airvent need alittle love, need to make it so it depressurises before the door opens <3

I didn't even notice this was venom's!

@venom415 the bottom of my verson of your ship has a custom (mouse controlled) Battlecannon Muahaha also, its an L in my name ;)

EPIC NICE SHIP ... why i dont build that epic ships ??

@coiteh thanks for letting me know, it has been resolved! also There is a new connector on the bottom!

Venom has made another impressive ship! Good job Venom!

Just noticed you have placed an update, will my previous message have been fixed by this update?

@Venom415 fantastic overall, side turret locations are not connected to main convayors. had to modify the ship a bit xD

This Ship is so good, i made Hangar in my Capitol-Ship where 3 of these fit in.

Any chance you could throw dimensions and mass up in the description? just something i like to look at when browsing ships. looks very sweet i have to say.

mhh single grid.... IM GOING TO MASS PRODUCE THESE THINGS!

Glad you like it, more ships are on the way! :P

Love the design man. Very nicely done.

That ship has a pretty sexy exterior. Well done, Venom.

Update: Bridge flight seats now have functions on the toolbar. Red alert lights have been added as well. Missing turrets are now back and you wont see the "Missing Mods" message! Enjoy!

Виглядит супер! It is cool!

Looks like something is wrong with missile turrets. They dissapeared after pasting, so they probably are the culprit.
Also I really like how double doors are located everywhere - it gives the feel of a proper ship
Ship is a bit hard to navigate since most doors and staiways are not subscribed - you simply can't figure out where the door leads to. I understand that there is simply not enought place for lcd panels (Developers seriosly need to consider implementing 'compound' blocks at least for walkways, light and LCDs), but still it's a disadvantage.

P.S. Would you mind if I remake this ship in Empyrion if I will have a chance to? looks way too good)

it was built in a world with mods but i used vanilla blocks only for the blueprint, it might be a bug so ill see if I can fix that.

Ship is not Modless? When pasting it warns about missing mods.

@{-SM-}Alex


Yes i know >_>


I was simply just replying to the question of @BeatToWin.
As you can clearly see by looking at the very first line on my prior comment.

Beautiful! Thanks.

@kris220b

The pictures clearly show ION thrusters being used on this design. IONS are only 30% efficient in within gravitational atmosphere. H2 based systems are NOT required for space travel, they simply provide more thrust.

SE aesthetics at its best.
