Acheron Class V1.00

Description
May I present you: the Acheron Class.

I tried to create some organic, aggressive looking design. This was accomplished by a lot of rotors and even more landing gears.

The ship is for the most part survival-ready, however it's not recommended. Since the focus is more on the optics, there aren't a lot of thrusters e.g. and I am also pretty sure the whole ship will shatter into pieces if you reach a certain speed.

You will also notice that there is some ugly, yellow structure in the back part of the ship, that isn't shown on the screenshots. This structure isn't a part of the ship, however it's needed to hold the 8 "tentacles" in place. These parts of the ship are highly unstable and I couldnt find a way to fix them. I dont even know if it is caused by the physics of the game or a bug, but since it is so unstable that even loading the savegame or coming close to them (without touching them!) can cause the "tentacles" to freak out and destroying half of the ship, I think it is a bug. If you have an Idea how to fix it, pls let me know.

Though all the instability I couldn't resist to build in some heavy weaponry: a gravity torpedo autocannon, inspired by Brenner's awesome "Modular Piston Autofire Cannon" (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=295399732). I just use a bigger magazine, containing 15 torpedos. the magazine, as well as the hangar-modul in the back of the ship are easy replacable.

To fire the autocannon use the pistongroup that is placed on the first slot in the action bar. To stop fire press the same button again.

Long Range Landing Gear

Actually the vanilla landing gears was all that was needed, however a few weeks ago a patch caused breaking of the most landing gears and this mod was the best way to fix it.

All you need is a kawaii school girl and liberally apply rule 34.
