Yes sure, as long as, if you publish them, you credit me as the original designer of the vessel. also you will likely need to drasticlly increase the powerplant size. Currently she runs on only two small reactors and a lot of batteries if I recall correctly.

Wow so would it be OK to modify them to work with Ion ?

@eaglegundam: Since my ships are mostly designed for use in creative mode, so I mostly opt for them for their awesome looks and superior power. Lore also plays a role. I am contributing to Antialr's and k_medlock's lore project, in which HDY favours old, cheap, proven technology (hydrogen thrusters = fusion drives) over ACI's high tech high cost approach (ion thrusters = quantum vacuum drives). So that is another reason why I use hydrogen propulsion.

Love Your ships but one question Why Hydro Thrustrs?

50 SHIP kills not personal killed. Also this is purely lore I have written so don't take it as a promise ;)

Only 50 kills for an entire fleet? A spaceship is usually crewed by hundreds if not thousands

That is true way better than an escort

@Cruiser Maya: Nope, not so much. But at least she is not an Escort Carrier (only Kantai Collection fans will get this joke).

@parkasever: Thanks for the kind words man, I always appreciate it. I will now check out your newest build, the thumbnail I saw looked impressive ;)
parkasever 21 Aug, 2017 @ 5:05pm 
@Cruiser Maya - Check it out for yourself. I've counted 6 fighters inside the hangar and four bombers on the deck. This ship is well thought of and has a nice, sturdy space carrier look to it.
Trophy Wife 21 Aug, 2017 @ 7:55am 
She may be called Kaga but does she has the absurd amount of hangar space that the original Kaga had?

@High Ground: Thank you a lot for the advice, I will try to use it more prominently in future builds. Especially the list of damaged blocks seems like it would work well on a warship.

@k_medlock: Please don't hold me responsible, that was the HDY legal team that told me to put it there. :)

Haha i like the warning at the end budgie! :D

The LCD script by MMaster is pretty simple to use. You only need a single timer block to run all your programing block. and seperate programing blocks for each script your running. So in pratice you can run multimul programs off a single timer.

For the LCD script you only need on programing block. You simply add [LCD] to the end of the lcd screens name and then you can go into the custome data on a specific lcd screen and enter the command for what you want displayed. MMaster has a list of commands you can enter thay will allow you to do almost anything! Like if you simply want center text on a screen the command is simple "Center Medical Room". If you read his guide you can see all the options there are. Or if you want working examples you can check some of my workshop creations. Most of them use the LCD script.

@High Ground: Thanks man, good hint. How do you set up the scrip for multiple screens? Do you need a completely new set of programmable block and timer for each display or can you control multiple LCDswith one script?
High Ground 19 Aug, 2017 @ 2:54am 
If you want to get the name labels for doors centered next time you can use MMasters LCD2 script. setup is like every other lcd screen but for the name on scree you type Center "name" and it will auto center the name. makes life so much simpler

@Dr. Dark Sith Skeeter: Thank you mate ;) Still kind of small for a Carrier, but then again it is my first "real" Carrier (considering my Courageous was more of a Destroyer). I am very pleased with how it turned out.
Dr. Skeeter 17 Aug, 2017 @ 3:57pm 
This is huge, and it is nice too!
J4R  [author] 16 Aug, 2017 @ 3:08am 
An atmospheric version is not planned.
eaglegundam 16 Aug, 2017 @ 3:07am 
wow ok
will you make a atmo version ?
J4R  [author] 16 Aug, 2017 @ 2:53am 
@eaglegundam: The ship is not rated for planetary flight. Hydrogen thrusters are used for superior thrust and cooler looks. In fact, it is better descending than ascending because apparently small hydrogen thrusters are more space efficient than large ones. The Scythe Interceptors are fully capable of planetary flight though, so you can park your carrier in orbit and launch your fighters towards the surface. Note that the Bombers can't do that however.
eaglegundam 15 Aug, 2017 @ 5:56pm 
how good is the planetary fight abilitie??

OHHH TITAN! (Sorry, my creativity is out meeting girls and it left me behind.)

OHHHHHHHHHHHH BOI
J4R  [author] 15 Aug, 2017 @ 3:15am 
Nice to hear. I know I have been teasing a lot, but I am cheeky ;)
Hope you enjoy her!
