Thunderling Gunboat

Description
The wisdom of many went into the creation of a single engine of war: The Thunderling

=~=~=~=~=~=~= Details =~=~=~=~=~=~=

Early game version of a later vessel, ready to be upgraded to a stronger hull material.

A modestly powerful engine that performs better at low RPM. An expansion idea: add battery packs and an electric engine to support shield deployment.

Small storage for miscellaneous resources allowing it to clean up after an engagement.

Three different cannon systems:
1 x triple-barrelled, AA gun (fires flak & tracer shells)
2 x double-barrelled anti-ship cannon (single turret)
1 x single-barrelled, large calibre cannon for engaging larger, heavily armoured targets.

Sleek design allows for a max speed around 24m/s.

=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

As seen in my From the Depths Let's Play, which can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/user/Aavak

Any critique or advice, warmly welcomed :)

WHY DON'T PEOPLE JUST REINFORCE WOOD CRAFTS WITH METAL?

@SilencedHero thats because this ship was build before the detection parts got added to the game

Love the boats and lets play series Aavak, been watching you on factorio also, iv learned quite abit about both games from watching you guys + Ireland Gaming, apprechiate the help tremendiously I still got a long long long way to go though, used to know how to play a good chunk... and updated game and now my old knowledge is omost non existant.

still trying to wrap my head around certain new key features
never could get submarines or airplanes to work for me, without some....catastrophic....failures ( some I mean to the point where I gave up and mainly just Ships only now till I can learn more about how to contstruct proper ones,my airplanes dont fly without screaming Mayday Mayday and my submarines have the submerging powers of a dead whale in ocean surf. my ships work good though thanks to you guys :D
only 342 hrs in this game... and I know barly 9-13% of the game it seems like.

There seems to be an issue with the AI for this ship. It only activates for me during a battle that is started on the map, and cannot be turned on or off manually (I like to control ship movment while AI handles guns). Just wondered if it was set up this way, or if its a bug?
