Captain Ahd's Star

Description
NOTE: 9-27-2022 For some reason the ship spawns with some of the silver paint showing up as black. Tsuna knows about this bug, we are just waiting for him to fix it. Sorry your spawned ship might look wrong. I hope he resolves this soon.

Captain Ahd's Star
An old man wrinkled and tanned from long sun exposure walks up to you slowly, the limp in his left leg tells stories of hardship. Grime and grease on his palms indicates he is a starship technician. This man's clearly lived a long and rough life, looks sketchy but exudes trust. He speaks to you, in a slow, cracked drawl.

"There are stories about gold and stories to behold, but with Ahd...most of it's untold, and I see you glaring at his darling and that move my friend is mighty bold.

The vessel known simply as "Star", owned and operated by Captain Ahd has been skating comets and buzzing asteroids for over 200 years. Her past is as clouded as Ahds....but she is a damn fine ship, made to last.

Ahd comes around here looking for work, ain't cheap but damn he gets the job done. Looks like your paths were meant to cross. Ahd's a freelancer. Pricey, but good.

My only word of advice, stop glaring at his gal. Respect her and he will respect you. Otherwise, nice knowing ya.

Safe travels partner."





Special Thanks to
- Kyna for help with logic, bringing the Stars engines to life.
- Sebatases for giving me mountains of feedback over the many months I've been working on this ship.
- Ulty for his great idea on hexagon floor sticker work and the idea of placing spotlights at the front of engines for a nice touch of plume.

And thank you for checking out Captain Ahd's Star. There are lots of buttons to push, some fun things to play with. Take your time looking around, there is a lot to see and a lot to miss. :)

Also
Please let me know in the comments what your GPU is and the FPS you get with this ship. I would like to know the performance impact in the game with this build due to the amount of small bricks I am using for detail. Thank you in advance!

This ship has an astounding level of detail. I just recently got into this game and seeing these awesome creations is just jaw dropping. Love your creations and lore for your ships. :steamhappy:

@commche Thanks!

The signage started when we had the Operation Starwatch competition https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2459532931

I wanted to put in some Blade Runner homage (note the 44 on the police ship). So in this line of thought I wanted scan lines for my screens. While I was working on one of the screens I screwed up the <line-height> tag by giving it an extra digit or something. It pushed the signage off the screen, which surprised me. So I thought I could use that for a "feature".

When I built this ship, I wanted to do the same but make the UI feel more sci-fi. I spent a ton of tim e trying to get all that straight. I am not a coder and I am sure my code is not efficient at all. But I think it came out well enough :)

Your use of digital signage is nothing shot of genius in this ship. How the hell did you figure that out! I know HTML plays a part, but wow, I wish I knew more about how do to this!

Hey Enderplayer2001 The starter block was actually removed and then re-implemented into the ship. This way it would float when spawned.

I have been working on a dry dock that has gravity within the construction area. If a starter block is not implemented, the ship falls down in space while inside the dry dock. Simplest solution for me was to include the starting block inside the build.

If you want to remove the starting block, it is located behind the left sliding access panel in the hallway (if you are facing the front of the ship). There are only two hallway access panels so it should be easy enough to find. (located in the high greeble area of the hallway towards the back of the ship).

you didn't remove the starter block so the ship has no gravity and floats above the ground
