Starter/Exploration ship 400R (Vanilla+DLC)

Description
Explorer 400R
- Luxurious starter/exploration ship for 1-2 players
- No mods: Vanilla + decorative pack dlc
- Survival ready

How to use
This ship can fly in space and on all planets. Great for exploring or as a starter ship for 1-2 players.
Flight seat turns towards you when you approach it. After entering the seat you can hit '1' to control the ship by remote control. If you don't like this, just remove the rotor and replace the flight seat :)

Important note on artificial mass blocks (space brake) in survival mode:
When you're in the flight seat, hit hotkey '4' to disable the space brake because it drains a lot of power. There's some bug that sets artificial mass blocks to 0 mass when you spawn them in 'off' mode, that's why they're turned on in the blueprint. Gravity drives are set to 0 to prevent the ship from moving away, you can change this manually from the flight seat. They drain a lot of power so it's better to turn it off first.

Contents

- Survival kit
- Refinery
- Assembler

Heyo, does it have any subgrids?

So about the space brake, I think I fixed it now. See description :)

When I built it it worked, until I respawned the ship again from an updated blueprint or reloading the savegame. Not sure though. I'll try again sometime but I think it only works now when you've just built it yourself

I'm not an expert especially with grav drive. I looked at a video on how it works and for some reason, your ship doesnt seem to make it work. I fixed it by removing all art mass and re-adding them to the ship and now it works. Do that and it should work and re-publish it if you wish. I hope this helps

Ahh ok cool. For the rockets I guess it hits the turret based on the angle and velocity your going so an ajustment could be made I guess. I think I could take your design and do some tweaks using the gravity drive and changing the location of the rockets. For the record I like the rotating chair lol

Thanks a lot!

Space brake no longer seems not to work since a recent update, so if you're building it in survival you can replace the artificial mass blocks with something 'cheaper' and lighter. Gravity drives should pull the artificial mass blocks back to stop the ship. It worked when I built it but since then not anymore.

The wobbling might be caused by the rotor that the flight seat is on. It's just an extra so you can replace the rotor block for an interior block or something :) The hotkeys of the flight seat are also in the remote control block so you can copy these to the new flight seat.

I also noticed that the rockets when fired sometimes hit the gatling turrets, although they're not physically blocking the rocket pods. So you might want to disable friendly fire in the game settings.

Couple of questions or things.
1. space brake. I recently came back to the game so I don't understand that thing at all. Seems to work with gravity I guess...how does it work ?
2. Theres a wobbling left to right ? Its weird but it last a couple of seconds then seems to go...idk ?

Besides that, I really like it. I like it so much that I'll build one in survival to get out of the planet almost at an early start. In other words, my first "large ship" in my game will be yours. At that point, no jump drive of course I guess but besides those, I really like the ship.

Good work +1
