Challenger One LX:
================

== Starter-Survival-Mobile-Base-CV (Level 10, Class 1, No Z&E) ==

As the Name suggests ;-) this is a Challenge Vessel.

This is an Update for the Challenger One while still meeting the Challenge criterias!


---
Challenge:
https://empyriononline.com/threads/challenge-dual-small-generator-cv.33684/

The rules:
1. No components requiring Zascosium or Erestrum, (these are beginner ships after all)
2. The CV must look like a ship, not a collection of flying parts.
3. The vessel must weigh below 1 kiloton.
4. The vessel must provide an oxygenated area for the pilot.
5. The vessel must keep hazardous components away from the pilot. (No roasting/irradiating the player).
6. The vessel needs landing gear, no slamming the hull into the ground.
7. You are only allowed two small generators to power it, and the generators cannot *redline* during flight on Omicron.

Bonus points:
Make the ship a mobile base.
Keep the LVL requirement at LVL 10 or below.

Features:

• Standard Steel to keep Ressources and Weight down (.. see upgrades below!)
  
• Acceptable Manoeverability: 8m/s² lateral, brake and down Acceleration, 16m/s² main and up Acceleration, 5.03deg/s² Pitch and 4.48deg/s² Yaw (.. see upgrades below!)
  (it's a bit slower than the smaller Brother, but having better Pitch and Yaw)
  All Thrusters are exposed!
  
• Advanced Constructor (incl. PowerOn/Off-Switch)
  
• 14x Large Cargo boxes (+3)
  
• Food Processor (incl. PowerOn/Off-Switch)
  
• 3x Large Fridges
  
• 9x pre-plant Growing Plots
  
• Warp drive, tank and Gravity Generator (incl. PowerOn/Off-Switch)
  
• Full Medic Station, all 4 Scanners and living Stuff (Bed, Toilett, Shower, Armor Locker)
  
• O2 Station, Ventilator; Ship is full oxygenated
  
• 4x Cannon Turrets (.. see upgrades below!)
  
• 3x Passenger Seats (+1)
  
• One Docking point for a Micro SV below and one Landing area for a Small SV ontop
  
• Anything can be directly accessed!

Possible Upgrades and Changes:

• Upgrade Hull to Hardened Steel (or even Combat Steel)
  
• ADD Large T1 Generator after Removing the LCD Screen in the Warp Core Room
  
• Recommended: REPLACE then the existing Small Generators with:
  Right side: 2x RCS and left side 1x T2-Fuel tank
  
• REPLACE (some or all) lattice textured Blocks with S-Thrusters; Then ASSIGN them to
  either ThrustersRCS_Space or ThrustersRCS (= on Planet)
  
• Recommended: REPLACE the Back-S-Thrusters with M-Thrusters
  
• On the Roof remove or move both rear Turrets for a bigger Landing area up to a medium SV like the DroneHunter "Mark 5"

These Upgrades and Updates are incorporated in the Challenger LX.
Of course then it's not fulfilling the challenge criterias anymore.
