Merc-MX9 Reforged

Description
An attempt at updating jrandall's Merc-MX9 for RG/RE. All credit for the original blueprint is his.
Original: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1642947462

This will not function in vanilla as it uses devices unique to Reforged Galaxy and Reforged Eden.

Changes:
Removed all RCS.
Put a heavy shield generator in the space left behind.
Added maximum CPU blocks, again in the space previously occupied by RCS.
Removed vanilla generators, replaced with RG versions.
LCDs removed and replaced with hidden projectors used in the MX12-H, also by jrandall.
Weapons load changed, is now two heavy lasers, four homing missile, four bomb launchers. Additional mounting locations are still available and weapons can be adjusted if you wish.
Added a few extra cargo extensions to the storage/ammo bays. Their capacity is now 1875 each instead of 1500.
Trauma station added on the ceiling by the pentaxid tank.

I'm not exactly experienced with SV building so it would probably be best to not let the shield go down and the ship start taking significant hits. With the CPU extenders in locations previously occupied by RCSs, they probably aren't quite as well-protected as CPU extenders normally would be. All are still internal, however.

Small update Oct 30th - Cockpit is now armored.

Thank you, Plisko.

That Belle Starr person was being so sure of themselves that I spawned this into my single player RE game just to double check. It is fine. It was not red. It is at 100% CPU. There's one in every crowd I guess.

Don't know what to tell you. I've tested this in both scenarios and reforged creative. In all three I see it as not red and 100% efficient. You have a good day yourself.

I am in Reforged Eden and I have refitted many ships for my use and created some myself. I've played for years lol! Thanks for your assumptions though. It's red in my factory. End point, Have a good day!

Yes, that happens if you spawn it in vanilla creative or vanilla survival. It is not for vanilla creative or vanilla survival and will not work there. You need to either A) load a game started with either the Reforged Galaxy scenario, or the Reforged Eden scenario, and look at the ship in the factory there, or B) start a game using the Reforged Creative scenario, which I have linked.

When I go to my factory after subscribing it is in red so I went to creative and spawned it. It said it is over 6K short of CPU needed. fact

@ Belle Starr, it is not. It is 100% CPU efficient when used in the current version of Reforged Galaxy or Reforged Eden, which it is modified for.

It is over CPU limit

Thank you very much jrandall! Also adding it as a modded version would be great.

Very cool! Thanks for fixing it up! If you would like, I can add it as a modded version on the MX9 post. And awesome work!
