Sounds good, will be on the lookout for link(s).

More likely, it'll be a new upload - I rearranged a number of things to take advantage of the smaller warp drive, squeezed in some grow plots, that sort of thing.

Any plans to update for 7.0 Kieve? The material recalc in-game bumps her to require 13 Erest and Zascos now, which aren't obtainable in starter systems (or even in nearby systems with a jumping SV).

Great lil cv. I edited it to fit my needs. Keep'em coming.

I love this little CV. Handles really well. Thanks for this and all of your wonderful designs! :)

Thumb up for my favourite CV

I actually am glad to see ships that DON'T have grow plots. It is too easy, especially in Multi-player, to have a farm somewhere, or kill fauna for meat, to keep the fridge stuffed.

Oh, the happiness that comes from understanding someone's exterior references...
The learjet's a cool thing.

Hmmmmm, Learjet Strike Fighter . . . .

It's armored glass. You'll be fine if you do the smart thing and run.

This isn't a combat vessel, it's not meant to take on player ships or PVs. The turrets are for defensive use against drones and wildlife, not taking down other ships. Sticking around for a firefight is like asking a Learjet to fly strike missions.

Looks good flys great just ont thing---to meny windows if you attact some one or evne a AI ship you will get your a** shot up try makng the next one w/o glass other then that its a nice ship

Thank you all! Glad you guys are enjoying!

@Paul_Kettlebones - That was more or less the idea. Reason I added the "LXS" / "SE" designations, as car models do.

@Balcoran - Growing plots were a genuine oversight on my part - I don't mind people giving constructive feedback. I get what you mean though, a lot of submissions (CVs in particular) do tend to attract "snowflakes" as you call them ;)

great ship design. never seen anything like it. love the open plan.

I have to be a stereotypical internet douche and follow those compliments up with a "buuuuuuuuuuut.............. theres no this, or that. uuuuugh, i don't want to do it myself, i demand you post a new file just for me with these things included".

aaaaaaaah i'm just poking fun at the snowflakes in the comments, thanks for uploading. really unique.

It's gorgeous. Like a CV luxury car!

I like this design! Keep up the good work!

@! SKILL.
Obvously your skill isn't in READING. They just talked about grow plots

GROW PLOT ?

No worries. I'll keep an eye out for your new designs, :)

best ship ever in this game ! but i dont like it

... dammit. Knew I was forgetting something! I think the best solution would be to extend the left side a bit more, and shuffle the Grav and Constructor around a bit to make space for a 3x3.

That said, I'm so used to getting too many canned veggies from Xirax, I honestly figured a fridge was enough (and a food-processor for salami and such). I can't think of any good way to integrate grow-plots without either removing existing equipment or completely gutting and rebuilding the left side of the ship. I'd say a new variant was called for, but really I'd prefer to explore different vessel designs (rather than have a dozen sub-types of the same one). My apologies to all for the glaring oversight.

Only one complaint/question... Grow plots? I imagine that there are places that you can put plots down at least?

@m9ke,re: gravity generator, I knew this might be a risk, placing it where I did, but in my testing the temperature spike stayed below 'dangerous' levels. If it's enough to cause player health issues, I may have to seriously re-evaluate that section.
@JDaremo : the LXS ship has a Level 10 requirement, hardened steel hull (combat through the central underside), improved thrust and maneuverability... basically it's everything I wanted to do with the Soleil and couldn't because of the challenge restrictions.

Thanks for the kind words, folks - glad you're enjoying it!

@Kieve, Great Job!! What's this difference beween this model and the SE model?
@m9ke, This tends to happen when you try to build small and include the nessessities.

@Kieve & Fractalite, Looks like my turn to make one.

Not overpowered, no sensles glued weapons ,cool asymetric design (minimalistic) well choosen coloring , nice interiour . very well done Sir !

I love this build my only problem was with the gravity generator overheating me when i walked by or used to repair station. I fixed it by moving it over to the front right correner of the docking area which let me put in a second constructor. while this cut down on the piolots area it did allow me room to move the warp drive tank to the front and put in a second large air tank.

thanks awsome design

m9ke

This is such an interesting approach to minimalist creative design. It just so happens that I am working through a survival game that is RIGHT at the point of needing to build a CV, and I am eager to try this. Beautfiully done!
