NO CAPTURED BLACK HOLES WE SAW HOW THAT ENDS

Great "out of the box" Design! Very nice block work. I will take a walk through in creative. Mahalo for your work

I wish the "ring" is horizontal instead.

Wow. Incredible design :cozybethesda:

THIS is the kind of ships there should be build some more of, looks dope
ravien_ff 1 Aug, 2019 @ 11:18pm 
Added this to my scenario! Beautiful ship! Thank you!
Dropla 4 Jun, 2019 @ 10:08pm 
This is BEAUTIFUL!!

I have zero interest in using this, but this is an epic design, truly a beautiful creation and a well imagined "real" ship.

Can’t wait to spawn it and have a play... fantastic looking ship well done
Halogenic 12 Feb, 2019 @ 4:28am 
This is a work of art! Beautiful design!!

just wow...

@god np this ships so awesome i didnt want to go without it :3
Sneed's Feed and Seed (Chuck's)  [author] 17 Jun, 2018 @ 1:35am 
@Fate. Thanks for letting me know. it has now been updated for 8.0, (7.0 still compatible)
Fate (-{SoH}-) 17 Jun, 2018 @ 12:10am 
Hey Figured i should let you know alpha 8 broke this design since they did alot of redesigns.
Cant spawn it anymore sadly.

Kudos for the realism on the circular deck, I discovered that was possible with rotated gravity generators a while back and knew something like this had to be possible. Kudos that that is the only gravity on the ship. Also I want to know how long the warranty lasts on your fore impact shield, that thing does NOT look like it's going to last 38 LY. I give it 20. Get your money back. :)
Odanrot 1 Apr, 2018 @ 11:24pm 
warning do no spawn this on the ground there is no way to get to the cockpit without a sv ,it is a beautiful ship but we wasted resources on it when we should have spawned it in creative first the grav change is disorienting(but genius) but trying to get back to the cockpit in zero g with a jetpack is a pain in the ass
ImaShootsYa 28 Feb, 2018 @ 9:18am 
Beautiful but disorienting....I dont know how many times I've found myself lost within this vessel due to the physics spazzing out whilst traversing the circular deck.
That One Guy 23 Feb, 2018 @ 5:57pm 
Looks like the sniper type ship from game Dreadnought xD
VMVXMK2 18 Feb, 2018 @ 5:27am 
Just by the look of the screenshot, this feel like some sort of luxurious gigayacht that space age rich guy will have, which is great, love it.
Saint 21 Jan, 2018 @ 8:10am 
what is a turning circle? who needs to go side to side or even stop amarite?
OtterSpace 25 Dec, 2017 @ 8:24am 
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SHIP! Only question is what does the "bridge lock" lever do? Can't seem to figure it out
rainyday 17 Dec, 2017 @ 7:01am 
This is simply a work of art. I am in love with this ship. Making the ring 'work' is just pure genious. Well done.
Armstrong 26 Nov, 2017 @ 1:28am 
wow
Fiveball 25 Nov, 2017 @ 11:31pm 
This is beautiful
LuckLessLobster 25 Nov, 2017 @ 2:05am 
Im gonna be honest i spent like 5 min gushing over the screen shots. Absolutly beautiful design. Well Done!!

nice
LastThymeLord 24 Nov, 2017 @ 4:58am 
You are an artist sir.
piddlefoot 23 Nov, 2017 @ 4:06pm 
Freaky ! I like it !
Torsanis 23 Nov, 2017 @ 2:01pm 
great and not too hard to get :)
Ease of Mind 23 Nov, 2017 @ 7:47am 
Ich mag einzigartige Schiffe. Und dieses Schiff ist definitiv einzigartig.
Klasse Arbeit! ;)
Player One 23 Nov, 2017 @ 7:12am 
falling in love allready :)

I fully support designing our first near light speed craft to be phallic shaped. I would go so far as to suggest 2 side by side living sections. We wouldn't want to get to our destination and not be able to perform adequately. On a more serious note, its an incredible design and shows an acute attention to detail.
Nathan Hindle 22 Nov, 2017 @ 11:19pm 
I like what you've done. But when considering physics youve disobeyed about every law of propulsion and aerodynamics. Other good work.
Stellar Remnant 22 Nov, 2017 @ 8:28pm 
Every time I think I've seen it all, something new comes along to shake it all up. Amazing ship.
BuffHamster 22 Nov, 2017 @ 5:45pm 
Four Stars!?!, should be five ofc, ... it is an imaginative collaboration (compromise?) of realistic engineering and the Empyrion game mechanics. A wonderful and, a Beautiful creation, now about that earwax problem, ...
PekPekGuardian 22 Nov, 2017 @ 2:39pm 
Reminds me of event horizon but the gravity is a pain on this ship
TheJebblue 22 Nov, 2017 @ 1:53pm 
It's very imaginative. It reminds me of the way artists used to draw what spaceships might look like.
Cypher 22 Nov, 2017 @ 12:01pm 
Well that right there is a labour of love. And tvm for sharing!
frank-fisher 22 Nov, 2017 @ 7:31am 
You' re an old space engineer i think? Very cool and realistic build, i did' nt know that this is possible in empyrion. 10/10!
Jackal 22 Nov, 2017 @ 6:13am 
Well done!
VindictaUK 22 Nov, 2017 @ 5:35am 
it looks like the mass relays from mass effect! i love it!
a[R]ci 22 Nov, 2017 @ 4:31am 
Well done mate
Klaypigeon 22 Nov, 2017 @ 3:46am 
This is the best looking ship I have ever seen.
Klaypigeon 22 Nov, 2017 @ 3:45am 
Got some Z and E? This looks fantastic.
Mr Lahey 22 Nov, 2017 @ 3:11am 
Incredible job!!! care to give any tips on how you did that circle effect with the slightly-sloped blocks? I tried taking apart a few and could not duplicate that idea for than a few blocks. Any special technique you use? any order to those sloped blocks?

And yes, Any traditional centrifuge accelerated at a force 90 degrees to it's rotation while it's rotating will become difficult to use as a living area. One solution to this may be to stop the rotation of the ring entirely, and accelerate (or decelerate) the ship at a constant 1-1.5G (9.8 to 14.7m/s2). Only rotating the ring to access another area of the living area. On maneuvers, I don't believe this could be much of an issue as any interstellar ship probably wouldn't be capable of maneuvers rough enough to cause anything more than minor discomfort.

A Centrifuge rotating around the axis of thrust does make a lot of sense, (despite some disadvantages) for larger vessels, and I think Ill have to take a crack at building one in the future.

Thanks for your input BKSpurr, yes I did overlook some conversation of energy issues, you are correct in saying that traditional methods of cooling wouldn't work in a depresssurized environment. And if I might add to your ideas on heat utilization, it may even be used to cook with. (ever try cooking an egg on a car engine?), also to elaborate on a point you made. This heat could absolutely be recirculated into generating power in the form of more traditional heat circulation generators.

Conservation of all energy within such a limited and isolated closed system would be extremely important.
BKSpurr 21 Nov, 2017 @ 10:28pm 
Love this ship. Amazing build.
Just a slight pick at your rationalization, "depressurized space would help deal with heat control". Standard earth type conduction/convection methods wont work in space. Maybe passive cooling materials that convert heat into infrared radiation. It might be better to conduct this heat through the ship as environmental control or to power lower end systems via an infrared 'solar' type system that could convert that infrared radiation into electrical potential, rather than just lose the energy to space.
Also a thought for the centrifugal force for the habitat ring. This could have problems under acceleration and deceleration due to the axis being at 90deg from the line of thrust, meaning that one side of the ring would incur more force and the other less while in rotation. Once up to speed it wouldn't be a factor but it'd be messy during maneuvers.

Just my two cent worth. Still a great build. Very well done.
