Thanks Roland!

Fantastic Vessel, thanks alot!

@Kieve thanks for the info! I've been sitcking with the later option on all my builds. Nothing worse then trying to rework a design after the fact.

Re: Thrusters - Yes, in the future "thruster damage" will be a thing. Hummel (community manager) has confirmed this on multiple occasions. Ships with hidden thrusters will damage the blocks that cover them. HOWEVER, they can still be shielded by vents. At this time, we're unsure if that means "shutter window" blocks, or if they'll add a series of exhaust vent covers specifically for the purpose. Right now, devs are willing to accept BPs into the prefabs which use armored shutters, so it's likely that those will be safe to use in the future, but that's not a guarantee.

So, you've basically got two choices. 1. Build as you like, bury thrusters, and accept you'll have to rework the design at some point in the future (or render it obsolete). 2. Build with exposed thrusters / use shutters for cover, and work around the problem before it becomes an issue.

@Darla Cool Video! Thanks for the support

agreed

if they do plan to go releastic i hope we get a new engin type like a anti gravity type engin no exhaust w/e so we can still have our cosmecticly pleasing ships.

From what I heard the exhaust needs to be exposed. But it's not a confirmed change at this time. If that goes down ALLOT of stuff is gonna be rendered obsolete. Hoping its not a thing at this point.

@Evasong, I heard rumors of this aswell. I think somewhere the devs talk about it but I would have to find where that info is. I guess it makes sense in the real world but it would cause a lot of problems with many existing ships etc.

whats this about ALL THRUSTERS ARE EXPOSED FOR FORWARD PATCH COMPATIBILITY ?
please tell me there is no plans to nerf armored thrusters alot of people do that for cosmetic reasons.

@styLmntz starting a CV this week...we shall see

Thanks styLmntz! Agreed on the Landing gears. had to use the full block ones due to the covers of thrusters :( was thinking legs around it but didnt care for the look.

The landing gears were my least favourite part.. But good work overall. I like it! Costs are quite low with good stats! Looks like you've found your signature style. Would love to see a CV from you.

Awesome thanks MasTanKeR!

I love this ship.. super fast and very agile! I am going to make this my primary fighter! Thanks for the build XCaliber!

Thanks Spiral! Starting to feel allot more comfortable with my original designs.

Very nice indeed. I was looking for a powerful and compact assault fighter to add to the SV loadout on my new CV. I will definitely be checking out your other designs.

Thanks Randall

Looks great! Very nice work!

Thanks Dogman!

Great small utility fighter. Great for checking miners. Small enough to tuck away on/in CV's in small fighter wings. Like the rear cockpit.
