Blast Tyrant battleship, v2.03 upgrade

A complete overhaul of the Blast Tyrant. Since the shield update didn't happen it's unfinished.
Has no shields, smoke or decoys, armor patchy in places and there are lots of gaps for HEAT to spawn.
Still puts up a decent fight, armor can take quite a beating.

Manual controls are I J K L, I and K only work when the "Propulsion" mainframe is "On" or "Off" (otherwise the AI has control).
There is a gunner position on each side at the bottom of the control tower, leave the propulsion AI in combat mode and shoot things up with the railguns.

Stats:

• 28550 blocks
  
• 1.02M material cost
  
• 25 m/s max speed, 4°/s turnrate
  
• 200m length, 33 width, 37 height
  
• ~500K energy/sec from steam turbines
  
• 7.2M battery storage, 287K electric engine output

Armament:

• 4x2 500mm 16 RPM heavy railguns. 1200 m/s muzzle velocity, 90K damage with 30 AP, 0.01 sec pen fuse with a 360° frag warhead. 0.07° inaccuracy.
  
• 2x4 500mm 16 RPM universal railguns. 780 m/s muzzle velocity, 40K damage hollowpoint with a HE warhead. 0.22° inaccuracy.
  
• 110K DPS 2Q laser. 85 AP, 1 combiner with 0.22° inaccuracy on each side, a 0.28° on top. No wavefront.
  
• 96x 6m "Bellyrub" lua torpedos. 76 m/s speed and ~3000m range, components are Lua/5 HE/fuel/ballast/3 propeller/fin. They attack from below.
  
• 64x 7m "Scourge" lua thumper missiles. ~220 m/s speed and 3500m range, components are thumper/2x360° frag/Lua/7 fuel/2K variable thruster/2 fins. Cruise at 400m altitude and whip down at the end.

Defenses:

• 30K DPS continuous LAMS. Nodes distributed along the ship.
  
• 70 RPM 400mm rail flak CIWS: 386 damage, 79m radius, 350 m/s muzzle velocity, 0.27° inaccuracy.
  
• Side armor: metal/HA/HA/alloy/3m air/metal.
  
• Deck armor: at least 1m wood/1m metal/1m HA.
  
• Bottom armor: 3m metal.

Detection/stealth:

• The meat are gimbal cameras, laser rangefinders, 90° radars and 90° sonars(with some special backups for extreme circumstances). Unfinished but works well enough.
  
• Can be detected from neighboring planets.

Railguns are drawing a bit more than what's optimal, didn't have patience to add shields so just increased their clock rate from 0.6 to 0.8.
