Caerus V2 Class Ship (Explorer)

The Caerus V2 has effectively been nearly entirely rebuilt to be larger, better featured and better equipped for long range exploration. The Caerus V2 comes with 4x BSE Small RC Miners, 4x Micro Shuttles, 3x Utility Craft (1x Tug, 1x Drill, 1x Cargo), 2x Welder Drones and 2x Grinder Drones.

The Caerus V2 can also operate in high altitude on a planet (it is not rated below 20km) for short periods of time.

The Main Hangar is able to carry any standard corvette in addition to the included utility craft (Cargo), proving additional space around it to aid in maintenace. The Secondary Hangar is empty, but able to house multiple small craft. The Ventral Hangar is intended to house the 4x micro shuttles, but also provide space for an atmospheric drop craft (not included). The Aft Landing pad is large an unobstructed, allowing it to receive craft of varying size. The remaining craft are carried on the exterior hull with the piloted craft accessible from air locks.

The Caerus V2 is equipped and setup for long missions with spare auxiliary craft should some get damaged.

==============
- Entire rear engine section has been rebuilt with more thrusters.
- Side Engine "pods" have been rebuilt to have more thrusters, oxygen generators and tanks, in addition to an Air Lock on each side.
- Entire Ventral section has been rebuilt to include multiple docking points, thrusters, a resupply connector on a piston and ventral air locks.
- Crew section refitted to allow direct access to side air locks.
- Main Hangar has been extended and widened! The aft section of which has been altered to be able to fit a utility craft and spare connectors for additional small craft.
- Fore section has been redesigned to have more hydrogen tanks and arc furnaces.
- Refineries were rotated and equipped with Yield modules.
- Large Grid Landing gear removed.
- Completely redesignd Bridge section.
- Added Scripts.
- Added many auxiliary craft.
- Added laser antennae (thanks to recent update) to allow for long range communication of data.


Hangar Dimensions:
===================

Layout
===================
- Entering from the Aft Air Lock, ramps lead to the Bridge. Vertical access to the Crew area.
- The Crew Area has access to the Port and Starboard Air Locks.
- The Crew Area has vertical access to the Ventral hangar.

- Forward of this is the main air lock, with the side doors leading to the Ventral Air Locks to the Utility Craft (Tug and Drill ships).
- The Main Air Lock has vertical access to the Secondary Hangar.
- Forward of the Main Air Lock is the Main Hangar.
- At the front of the Main Hangar is the Forward Compartment containing the additonal hydrogen tanks and leading to the Forward Cockpit.

Update 2017-11-25:
- Adding mising Conveyor Tubes below hangar to ensure fore section is connected to the rest of the ship. Thanks vizthex for catching that!
- Updated Whip's scripts and Floor plan script to newest versions which now no longer need timers to run.
- Turned off Floor Plant Script Programmable Block in the blueprint. For some reason it wasn't off.

Update 2017-11-27:
- Fixed upper hangar being inaccessible from interior! Oops!
