Polaris-Plus 0.8 (Outdated)

Description
This is an enlarged Polaris (by Mr.IceCat. Also ship is known as CV_Prefab_Tier2) - it is not better than original, just bigger.

I really like original Polaris, but it turned out to be hard to modify and a bit cramped so I enlarged it. Tried to preserve as much of original exterior and interior design as possible, hopefully I succeed.

Differences:
Original Polaris is 27x10x40, this one is 35x10x52.
Significantly larger docking platform and hangar.
Docking platform is outfitted with Repair Bay (armor block underneath)
Place for bigger or more turrets (artillery fits perfectly in the middle, but placed regular canons as in original ship)
A lot more room for players to use (currently filled it in with decorative crew-facilities)

Original Polaris here:

Polaris-Plus with sealable hangar:

Obviosly payload will be more protected, player will have oxygen in hangar and it looks more like curent Polaris, but ship won't be able to fit bigger HVs.

Update 10.06.2017
- Added Ventilators
- Added Ammo Lockers
- Added repair station
- Rearranged containers (most small ones are replaced with large ones since higher capacity containers are easier to manage)
- Rearanged reactors a bit
Notes: Hangar is not preshurazed yet, open hangar has its own charm so I will upload version with sealable hangar a bit later. Also there is no ramp or door that fits hangar of this size, so open version with closed hangar won't be capable of housing larger vehicles.

Update 17.06.2017
- Switched doors in hangar to non-glassed version, thet doesn't looks as good, but they are airtight

Update 13.08.2017
- One ventilator was sticking out - Fixed
- Fixed inconcistent texture of the celing in some places.

Updated version: 100%, T2 CPU, with a sealed hangar and sapce for hull palarizer.

P.S. Personally don't like sealed hangars, but it's an easy fix.

Frontal option (in progress):

P.S. Turns out ramps are not oxygen friendly, so this has no advantages over open hangar version except 'better' defense for vehicles.

Trying to do a version with sealable (oxygen friendly) hangar, but since front hangar is simply too big it doesn't look good when closed, so tried a version with hangar doors under wings intead. Looks way better, but turns out to be a bit too far from original for my liking: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=900770187
Still might upload Polaris-Plus version with side hangars separately, since finaly there is no running around the ship to board it)) But will wait for original polaris to be updated for 6.0 (oxygen) before final decision.

Please keep working on this. I love it! Also, the Erestrum and Zascosium requirements on the blueprint come from the repair bay. If you remove it, the blueprint requirements drop to level 10 (I think), and the rare mats are gone.

Looks like prefab version got a ramp... But it doesn't look as good. I gues if original version gets upraged, then I will uprage this one as well, or will upload a separate version with ramp.

Sathium is used for harder armor and weapons. Starter Solaris (probably the one that became ingame prefab ship) uses almost same amount, but original one has much more weapons (flux coils) and may be armor (for this ship only core is surrounded with combat armor). Same as Starter Polaris this one still have space for weapons and armor can be upraged.
I was using "Starter Polaris" as an example, hence the price. I can updage armor and install weapons, but I think it is better this way, since ship will take less time to construct and will be easier to remake into what is needed at the moment.
P.S. Personaly I recomend moving the core.

who can tell why this polaris use 600 of sathium and the other one 4000 ? what's the diference ?

Moved this ship to factory and started constructon without issues... may be your level is insuficient?
Usually "forbidden block" means that there are alien blocks in design - spawners, alien core, turrets or poi containers. In such case forbiden block should be highlighted in red while in creative.
