@ High Ground: he already has, and converting most of his ship designs to combat variants are not only surprisingly easy, but is only a slight modification to the design. just look through his older stuff, and you will find the old worlds where he built them.

You seriously need to build a (Vanilla) combat version of this ship, it would be epic ! ! !

I'd hesitate to ascribe any "realistic" values to the hydrogen engines. They currently don't draw any electrical power but also don't use oxidiser either.

i thought as much, but then they were made for planet takeoffs and then switch to ion engines.
I like the hydrogen idea but in survival its really unrealistic to use as propulsion source in space, could you find that much ice in starting out on an asteroid, i searched maybe a dozen and got 8% full in 4 hours of playing, its a big risk and gamble.
You could make a crossover between both propulsions, i think it would really help survival realism and say you was low on ice you run just on the ion engines to save oxygen and hydrogen, as you previously stated its not a planetary lander.

278 tonnes, lol

And that's excluding ice used to produce oxygen (hydrogen and oxygen production are independent of each other, but can take place simultaneously). Seems like hydrogen thrusters need a fair bit of balance adjustment.

Cool Stuff, How much ice does it consume to fill to max?
Stone Cold Jane Austen  [author] 5 Nov, 2015 @ 4:07pm 
Just over two minutes of full forward thrust. That's enough to reach maximum speed and decelerate to a stop 8 times.

How quickly does it run out of hydrogen?
Stone Cold Jane Austen  [author] 4 Nov, 2015 @ 8:13pm 
Very much so.

Homeworld inspired?
