OPC Volund - Medium Utility Ship

Description
NO MODS | NO SCRIPTS | SURVIVAL READY
CONTAINS: DLC | SUBGRIDS




After a series of technical failures at Turbot, which led to injuries, OPC decided to continue developing a utilitarian ship capable of performing repair and construction work. After stopping the production of the unsuccessful in operations Turbot, the Consolidation took advantage of the Rokiclaw's developments and created a new model based on its chassis. The resulting ship was much more compact, while having similar features and technical abilities.
Despite the many construction sites throughout the OPC region, the first experimental models of Volund were obtained in Border Worlds with a high risk of military conflict. The urgent need to build defense facilities on the border forces the OPC to rush, causing civilian projects such as Central Hubs and Space elevators to be postponed or even closed altogether.
However, small incidents with bordering corporations and factions, as well as increased cases of piracy in border systems, force Consolidation to focus primarily on military projects, and the need for constant repair and maintenance of the Defense Fleet takes up all the available repair drones and those Turbot that are still in use. Therefore, after successful tests and a series of improvements, the production of Volund was launched at the main OPC shipyards.

I checked in survival on the server and in the private world, it looks like this is an single case of Klang. Unfortunately, this happens with subgrids
Foltast  [author] 16 Jul, 2022 @ 2:18pm 
Hmm, I need to check it

Trying to activate the landing gear hinges of this while in survival (spawned the ship) and it just clangs to a backflip and boom not sure if its something they changed since it was BP'd?

Nice! What is that station in the first picture though?

Fair, that makes sense now it's explained.

Hi! As Plutonium mention, the subgrids of this ship have a decorative purpose, since operating in space ship can use connectors for docking with stations, rather than landing gear. Their absence does not significantly affect the use of the ship, however, its main functions remain, including operation in survival mode (availability of space for fuel/electricity supplies, conveyor system, power sources, etc.). If you need to keep the original appearance, then repeat the chassis is not a serious problem, because I tried to make them as simple as possible.
Before publishing the ship, I tested it on dedicated server with survival mode for some time and neither I nor other players noticed any problems with these subgrids.

Survival friendly? Maybe not, like any aesthetic build. Definitely survival-ready as you can skip the landing gear mechanism and plug the landing gears directly onto the main grid.
I find survival-readiness more about being able to function as intended in survival mode (like having enough resources and a proper infrastructure)
