@Famine: That's cool to hear that this ship is still inspiring people. Feel free to use it for whatever you want!

cookiestealer this ship has been a huge inspiration for me and my building on our server, I wanted to know if I could get your permission to use the corpus of the ship in endeavors to use the inspired design

Its a verry Nice Space ship It were Nice when you make more so fatastic Ships

This ship was made before thrusters created heat and O2 was a thing in ships.
It says in the description that the Polaris was the inspiration for the bridge.
There is an option in control panel to shut off the main engines.

@Rustimus: No problem, I'm just glad it's getting any kind of use these days since it's pretty outdated.

Hope you don't mind.. I used this ship as a skeleton for a build that I did of Lucy from Killjoys... the form fit SO well. Full disclosure in the description! -- http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1123498306

@CookieStealer: This is a really nice looking ship, thanks for sharing. Nice touches with the parquetry in the Polaris-style bridge and the garden full of durians! :p

I went close to building this in Survival mode, but for me the Zasconium/Erestrum costs were a bit steep for early Survival mode

Great ship and deceptively large!

cool ship

Honestly this has impressed me very much, I was so surprised to find the constructor in it, such amazing design choices fitting everything in their so compactly.

Nice ship!!

A really nice ship, thanks for sharing

I like this one, good for a single player to explore with.

That said, I like the small size of the vessel, and I appreciate what you are trying to do. A few changes could make it a much stronger ship.

Actually, that's not what I meant on the thrusters. You have too many to do what you are trying to do, and combat agility can be reached with a lesser number of thrusters and a couple more T2 rcs units. The space savings is important, because that would allow you to internalize a lot of exposed materials, and actually give you more room for fuel (which it needs in any event). Less thrusters will also allow for less generators, again, saving space. I would expect that thrust somewhere in the 30 range would be more than sufficient (forward/reverse). Don't shink the hangar... it is large enough to be handy, and is a good feature for the ships. Use some of the space savings to move some of the engineering equipment elsewhere. Keep the warp core center, but wall it solidly. Move the core.

@jrc1967 You need to deactivate combat agility mode when in atmospheric flight, then the generators should keep up. Only use all thrusters in combat where it is useful.

But i agree that the core is pretty exposed. The problem though is that there is soo little space inside the ship. I just could not find another place for the core. I might however do a revamp on the interior layout of the ship, maybe remove/shrink the HV hangar and instead improve the armor and core placement.

Your best bet when fighting with this ship is probably to keep the enemy infront or above you since thats where the armor is the strongest and the core is not exposed from those angles.

Nice looking ship.

i like this. will def be getting one!

Pros: Nice front styling, plenty of thrust, solid mobility, exceptional forward visibility, well-armed for its size, ship is combat armor.

Cons: TOO MUCH THRUST. You don't need that much. The generators could not keep up with it, and with large fuel cells, I ended up with 16 minutes of atmospheric flight @ 112% power and 1g of gravity. Armor issue: much of what has been used has only 1/2 full value (in other words, it might as well be reinforced steel). Only 1 layer in some places. CORE IS HORRIBLY EXPOSED. The doors used in the back do not respond to vehicles, are a large target, and the core is in the docking bay, as is the warp core. The back of the ship could use a redesign, and much of the exposed things should be put under cover. Interior is a bit of a mess. Fuel consumption is horrible.

Conclusion: Not suitable for serious PVE combat, and not at all suitable for PVP combat at this time.

awesome job, well done!

For a first attempt ,im impressed ! love this cv ,has everything you need and space for a mining hv and a small sv to . I like the option for combat mode to,not seen many use this idea,my sv i build has same option, can be usefull in a crunch ...keep up good work! .I look forward to your next builds.

Really Good Job ! Seems to be adding an element of fun that smaller ships deliver, like maneuverabilty and flight that is crisp and responsive, yet it still has full amenities and jump capacity !

Sneaky X-302!

epic!!

Looks impressive. I'm not much of an interiors person, but the design looks pretty nice. I'll check it out.

This is such an awesome ship, especially for how small it is. Very well done!

Thanks! :)

I like the look of this ship! I'll have to check it out a bit later tho.

Good job! Keep it up!

looks awesome !
