Landingpad for Janus-ASV

Description
NB. This is for EGS v1.5 experimental. I just realised that I built this in 1.5. It will not show in the BPs in 1.4.7
Use this version of the Landing-pad for Janus-ASV for EGS v1.4.7

I really like the Janus-ASV module for the Helios-MSC by jrandall

It is designed to be used as a starter base that can be upgraded as you level until it is a full-on CV with all the amenities that you would want.

The one issue that I have with it is that it is difficult to find a large enough flat piece of ground to spawn it on.

My OCD really freaks out when everything in the ship is at a slope. So I decided that it is time for a landing pad to spawn it on. I wanted more than just a square of concrete so this landing pad was born. The next issue to solve was how to accurately place/spawn the Janus on the pad.

The procedure that I use gives fairly accurate results. Start by standing on the circle on the boarding platform. Go into 3rd person view and bring the Janus-ASV blueprint out ready to spawn. Turn the ship to face you with the insert/delete keys. Now you can easily line the ship up to the edge of the boarding ramp. Spawn the ship when you are happy with the alignment.

Thanx to Jeff for the stunning ships that he designs for our usage.

I see you too have OCD! Still, the t2 fuel tank that requires cobalt and the difficult to remove core sort of defeat its purpose as a spawn point for an early game starter base/CV. Cobalt is hard to come by early as is fuel. Thanks for making though i'll just modify it real quick in creative

@FrancoBam Yes, you could delete the core but then you will lose the landing and deck lights.
The core in underground encased in concrete. I uploaded an image of the casing.

Just delete the core after spawning it in. Brings me to the question: Where is the core placed?

Then you get drone attack.
