Venator Star Destroyer Revamped

Description
This mod is a re-design of the legendary "Venator" mod by Erwin Rommel, available here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=190276838.

This mod is my personal retrofit of the "Venator" Class, with maximal emphasis on making the ship useful as a survival capable combat-cruiser in Space Engineers, while maintaining as much of the origianal mod's immersion and aesthetics as possible.

This version features full conveyor system, full oxygenification, massivelly enhanced firepower and survivability, and a lot more!

With the suggested mods, you will get:
- 10 Minotaur Dual-Cannon Turrets
- 4 Mk III Battleship Tripled Cannon Turrets
- 8 Telion Heavy defense turrets
- 4 Missile interceptor turrets


- Three large Hangars, with bays for simultaneus ressuply of up to 10 smaller craft
- Jump Drive Clusster capable of up to 1000km jumps (Not too much, but should suffice for normal scenarios)
- Fully accessible interior (although crew quarters are not decorated with clutter due to performance)
- Hangar bays have both sealable doors and Force fields to stop depressurasiation during take-off/landing or breach.
- Loaded script for LCD, but with basic preset commands
- up to 2,1 GW of power
- Decent manouvering speed, even though all side/reverse thrusters are hidden.


Please note that the ship is about 1/3rd of the "Actual" SW size, yet it is still very large for SE and thus the performance will be hit significantly, but it is still barable even in battles if your PC is good enough.

P.S: The ship is pre-loaded with enough ammo and fuel, and a decent amount of spare resources allowing for additional repairs. No small craft is included (I am a reaaaallly bad with their design). I also recommend using the Jump Drive Explosion mod, it is well enough protected.

P.P.S: Yes, I do have the author's permission. :)

Actually they are a modded version of the airtight hangar door (Large Armor Gates [WIP] (DX11)) - and they work exactly the same - just a slider into a single foundation block. The difference is, you can have them not only in 1x3, but also 1x4 and 1x5, which allows you to make much larger "blast doors" as i did. Hope this helps! :)

Hi, I was wondering how the blast doors work because I still have a copy of the original venator and I wanted to replace the top hangar with working doors like in the show, by the way good job

Yeah sure, go for it :) I have only made this one to make it work with conveyors, proper thrusters etc, but the final design is personal preference :)

I thought about making it so, but in the end I decided to stick with the original "erwin's" design (pre-hangar door) and only the yellow hangar bay door opens, but that by itself should give enough space for any craft that actually fits into the hangar bay to take off or land :)

thanks walrus btw the ship looks fantastic with all the stuff. quick question does the center open up like int the clone wars?

You can, but you have to place in in the world first. So if you want to have it as a ship in sirvival, you have to load the world first as "creative" (and make sure that enable copy+paste is checked), then you place the blueprint in the game (f10, find it, double click it and ctrl+v it into the world) - then just make sure that its all set as your ownership, save the game, return to main menu, and re-load the world as survival, an you will have the ship, and if you die you can then respawn in it :)

Hope this helps!
