Sledgehammer-Class - Mining Barge
This T4 Mining Barge is designed to conduct remote mining operations whether that be plant side or in space, it comes equipped with 2,560k of storage, 2 mining turrets and 4 mining lasers, full medical facilities, and basic living arrangements including a kitchen

In addition it is equipped with 8 cannon turrets and a T1 shield generator for defence to provide it enough time to escape most engagements.

Colours Schemes
This ship has been modelled to be able to easily change the colours schemes by changing the top right 3 colours, below are some examples but feel free to create your own!

This is still one of my favourite ships :) just wonder if Pheonix has given up on the game as these are still some of my favourite builds even after 3 years

I TRULY love how your BPs are designed to work WITH and even make other BPs of yours that much more BADASS!!! Thank you for your hard work sir!!

@Wrong Way
It doesn't have any rcs, and its maneuverability is due to large thrusters being further away from the center, but there are now slides that can adjust roll, pitch and yaw, which I could adjust as the ship really doesn't need much manurability to begin with, but generally I've just left them at 1.00 for now, as I figured people would just adjust them to their liking.

As for the containers, yeah that was hard to find a good position for the generators, so I settles for only being hot if you moved to close to the centre, figuring that its unlikely anyone is really going to spend any significant time in that area for it to really matter.

Your whole set of everything is pretty darn awesome! I appreciate the work and dedication you put into the entire project.
Constructive criticism: The Sledge is a little quick, I would suggest a docking mode button that specifically power down some of the RCS and maybe thrusters for more controlled movement.
Outside of that the entire idea is awesome.
The container ships I noticed have an increase hit of heat when entering/exiting the seat but that isnt detrimental or lethal.
Excellent work!

I do appreciate any feedback given, but can you at least list one flaw that you can see? that way I can evaluate it and if I think its an issue look at fixing it

As even if I would look at other ship designs, without knowing of what flaws you speak of, I could not learn to improve the design if I cannot see what is wrong with it.

If you ever want to see someones workshop for Empyrion, you only need to click on their profile and add "/myworkshopfiles/?appid=383120" to the end of the url

@gevans Can I get a link to your workshop? I'd like to see some of your designs you've released.

There are so many flaws with this design I don't know where to start........look at some videos, take a look at what other successful ship designers have done and experiment ......that's how I learned.

Yes, it is deliberate (besides not actually having a place to put it) as it is designed to be docked with a carrier ship it will piggyback onto its gravity generator when docked, this prevents up to 3 gravity generators overlapping when the carrier is carrying two Sledgehammer-class

This is also why it has a very open design so its easier to navigate without out a gravity generator.

Hey Phoenix, is this ship supposed to be missing a grav gen?
