Eryx - Heavy Hover Scouter/Defender

Description
Took inspiration off of LeonserGT's build of the Eryx Scout Landship (Link is here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=863577552) and used it as inspiration to make a bigger, more combat focused scout/defender class hover ship.

After some testing, crashes, more testing and volting off of mountains, I finally finished my slightly modded version of his scout ship. The Eryx heavy scouter, for all your sneaky engagement needs.

Fitted with:
-2 forward facing rocket launchers
-6 Interior turrets protecting the ship from all directions to keep those pesky hydro-manning dumbasses away
-1 Basic assembler and 1 basic refinery (Just in case you have to do some quick repairs)
-Decent thrusting power in most directions, although you'll have to lean into turns to keep yourself from drifting too much
-Protected cockpit
-1 scripted PMW (Uses Whips AI slaved turret script)
-13 armoured hover engines built into the belly of the craft, this way they're not an easy target

Notes:
-This hover ship would have had a survival kit, although I couldn't find a good nor convinient place for it so I just gave up trying to find one (Feel free to give suggestions on where i could put it so it isn't an obvious spot and can be safely spawned at)

-The PMW in front of the cockpit is not required, however it does give the whole ship a significant amount of fire power so yea.... thought id say that here since its not needed, but I'd personally advise keeping it
