E-136 "AETHER"

Description
In Greek mythology, Aether (/ˈiːθər/; Ancient Greek: Αἰθήρ, Aither, pronounced [aitʰɛ̌ːr]) is one of the primordial deities. Aether is the personification of the "upper sky". He embodies the pure upper air that the gods breathe, as opposed to the normal air (ἀήρ, aer) breathed by mortals.

I have also created a new youtube channel to show how my build and thought process works in order to help others who struggle with the design process. Whether your new to Empyrion or a Veteran maybe there are some things I may be able to help you with.

Hello and welcome!

This is the E-136 "Aether". This is a small vessel which I have been working on for some time. I have converted over from Space Engineers recently only to find the great possibilities with Empyrion. I have enjoyed working on this project very much and have to tell myself that enough is enough or I will just keep adding to the design.

Due to the light armor this is considered to be an exploration/Cargo Support Vessel. Not intended as an "end game" build nor is it intended for front line warfare. While with the right armaments you could send some decent firepower from a distance at a POI.

I have set up this ship with Survival in mind. Blueprint does not have weapons, however I have marked the locations of where I have them in my own survival game.

Ship Weight: 144t
Power: 14.4kPU
RCS: 56 *****UPDATE*****
Fuel Tanks: 44
Oxygen Tanks: 11

Cargo Capacity
Ammo Controller Capacity: 32000
Cargo Controller Capacity: 32000
Cargo Boxes: 16

Engines
Thruster S: 12
1x3x1: 25
2x5x2: 8

***Note in addition to normal flight mode, lift Engines are set up in 3 stages depending on cargo capacity. Switches are located in the cockpit. Every Stage is dependent on the previous stage being active. ex. Stage 2 switch will only work if Stage 1 switch is active.

Cargo Lift Capacity (Weight of ship has already been taken out)
Normal Flight Mode: 96t
Stage 1: 272t
Stage 2: 422t
Stage 3: 622t

Enjoy and happy adventuring!
Any Ratings would be greatly appreciated!

Special thanks to all of you for the feedback. I am beginning to notice this is a great community and look forward pushing the limits of design. Thank you.

hello, i just produced the E-136 "AETHER" but even with now 40% fuel filled the thrusters wont start and it still says 0,0 min fly time. is there something i´m missing?

While this ship is pretty outdated I love the look and managed to modify it to work on my friends server. First thing I did was just remove all the RCS and replaced with fuel tanks or O2 tanks. Never can have too much fuel I guess lol. Then I added weapons.. 4 H-Rocket, 4 Rail Guns on the front. 2 minigun turrets on the front and 2 minigun turrets on the back. Looks like a beast. I didn't bother upgrading the hull... too much work but you really shouldn't let the shields deplete anyhow. With the additions it becomes a CPU4 ship... just under 100k cpu. It's worth reworking if you want to use it... its still a great ship.

Playing solo survival, by far my favorite starting SV to packuyp and move in, off the starting planet.

:) Seriously, I'd like to know if adding more RCS's is a thing. I guess only a Dev would know for sure.

hey garyp156. the Aether is still the way it was. the Aeres is the upgraded military version. Trust me. no cargo space gone :P
garyp156 9 Aug, 2019 @ 4:39am 
Holy crap. Why?? All that cargo space gone. I thought it flew fine w/o them. That's just my opinion.
We added huge cargo areas on the left and one on the right because this is our runaround and pillage. Then we dock it to the back of the Asteria Destroyer.

I found that over 10 is an overkill for an SV or HV. Maybe it's my game but I didn't see any difference in handling, but my machine is a beast lol.
If someone knows different, please let me know. (about the game, not my pc rofl)

Managed to add another 20 RCS for a total of 76

Hey Orclover. I already did. It’s the A-232 Aeres. Went for a more military feel
