1880s Ironclad 2nd Class Cruiser

Description
Hello industrialists & hello to those who want to become one!

I built a steam 2nd class ironclad cruiser, based on a spanish cruiser of the US-Spanish war of 1898 - with two main cannon turrets & two broadside cannons for each side - for multiplayer naval battles & maybe survival like Age of Sails.
Max. Speed with both power sources: 28kmh.
2x 150mm turnable breechload AP cannon turrets
4x 24 pounder turnable muzzle HE cannons
6x 50cal MG's

Ship is made for close-mid fighting distances to support main battleships, but also can be used for distances over 1000m. The 150mm gives a lot of firepower to the ship.
The Armor is around 25-75mm, so keep distance from bigger ironclad battleships! The armor is not thick enough to beat a bigger warship from close range.

!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Steering is provided by 2x Engines & propellers. Reduce the power of one of them (2 contr.) to steer the ship. Its also possible to steer the ship at position and turn it without movement. There is also a third propeller to help the ship to understand the "turning" - sometimes it needs time to understand the proppelers are not spinning with same RPM.
Take controls from the steering wheels or upstair control platform.

META: This ship is made for naval multiplayer battles, as a standard ship - updates coming - warships allways WIP :) If you want really cool and challenging naval battles: dont use explosive rounds for the modern cannons! They are very OP against wooden & armored ships!
This ship is in the period between early ironclads and upcoming dreadnoughts.
The ship is not optimized for survival!

You can change cannon settings - cannon controls at the turrets.

The ship has a few decoratives. The Inside is less decorated, so its cheaper for multiplayer & survival!

I set a few standing plates, but of course you can set your own plates, for example on the masts.

To be able to use the ship in multiplayer, you should use a sync block. The syncer is upstairs close to the steering wheel - just open the door and you will see it.

Have fun industrializing & Fun Sailing Trip! :) I will be glad to see you in upcoming naval multiplayer battles!

nice, though change the flag to a white field and a white cross and it would be excellent! ^_^
