would this thing be able to hover in the air roughly 1km off the surface or are the dampeners not powerful enough

Just found this ship. An amazing thing but I have a problem with its broadside not firing all of the launchers. Seems like something's preventing from turning them on, as they flip off instantly. I also cannot turn off the one that is turned on... Anyone got any idea how to perhaps fix it?

Hey, I've noticed that this vessel (and quite a few others) has a problem with the SRWS - some turrets don't get repaired by the welders underneath them. There's a relatively easy fix though, which is to (for the Orion at least) move the welders back one so that their 'tip' is next to the middle of the turret. On the Orion, it's Gatling Turrets 15-20 and all the Missile Turrets (1-8).

Copper 13 Mar, 2019 @ 7:26pm

Hey just noticed that I am unable to update the blueprints from my current laptop have to wait some time until I get back to the my PC at home...
k_medlock  [author] 12 Mar, 2019 @ 11:19am 
Oh i will have a look might have to reverse it. My mistake in this case... Will update later today :)
Atlas 12 Mar, 2019 @ 9:56am 
it repells kinetic based projectiles like warheads, back into space
Copper 11 Mar, 2019 @ 10:28pm 
So what is the purpose of the gravity shield. all it seems to do is attract?
Hova 20 Nov, 2018 @ 9:34am 
is there a list for all the mats needed to construct this
k_medlock  [author] 18 Nov, 2018 @ 9:28pm 
Maybe you pressed "p" during the procedure... This results in all connectors disconnecting.
Krauter 18 Nov, 2018 @ 2:51am 
Started a survival game with an Orion Cruiser and an Eos attached to the connectors in the hanger. Took off towards the moon from mid space and all of a sudden the ship starts listing. I enter the hanger and all 3 Eos crafts that I'd attached in the hanger either disconnected or managed to break loose and were destroying the ship from the hanger outwards. Is this normal?

I had a speed mod on which may have not helped. Was travelling at 120m/s

Well we here at ACI want to make sure that you obliterate those planets ;P
Erebus Hunter 16 Nov, 2018 @ 8:20am 
There aren't many ships I've seen with bombardment capabilities. In fact, ACI ships are the only ones I've seen that can bombard planets.
k_medlock  [author] 9 Nov, 2018 @ 12:18am 
@Reardon Will do! Sorry about the inconvenience
Reardon 8 Nov, 2018 @ 12:17pm 
love it but the grvity shield doesn't work properly...
in fact it atrct the incoming prjectile it would be nice if you fix it :)
neoyarus 4 Nov, 2018 @ 5:18am 
I love the ship, but can't find its PCU anywhere. Can you include it in the description so i know if it's worth trying to build on a server?
Mr Pipe Works 24 Apr, 2018 @ 7:27am 
Thanks
k_medlock  [author] 24 Apr, 2018 @ 5:29am 
@Scalix Thanks mate! With enough practice you'll get the hang of it too!
@Solar Nightmare No I built this all by my self.
Mr Pipe Works 24 Apr, 2018 @ 4:29am 
Did a friend help you with this ship,named Hendrik?
Elektrik 7 Apr, 2018 @ 4:55am 
i love that ships, they are prete equal as the ones i build, but those ones are more complex and beautiful haha, most of my ships turns to a Imperial star destroyer design or just my projects never ends
k_medlock  [author] 5 Apr, 2018 @ 9:18pm 
@PH0ENIX This ship does not have any landing gear.
bumble 5 Apr, 2018 @ 7:01pm 
How to deploy landing gear?
ODBWolf 12 Mar, 2018 @ 8:15am 
Can't wait to see what the frigate will be like with this nes style
k_medlock  [author] 9 Mar, 2018 @ 4:37pm 
@BasicallyNuclear - {LINK REMOVED} You go into the control panel by pressing 'K' and then search for 'Program - FloorPlan'. You would have to turn on that block in order to get the script to update every few seconds. Be warned however, it might decrease overall performance of the game.
Arizona Ranger 9 Mar, 2018 @ 3:31pm 
how to enable damage detector?
Audiacious 7 Mar, 2018 @ 10:10am 
Of course mine have shields, mexex weapons, and tiered thrusters(I can never design thruster setups like you). I am still tweaking them but once done ill upload with a shoutout to your workshop.
k_medlock  [author] 7 Mar, 2018 @ 12:00am 
@Wx_Sgt Glad you like them! :D
Audiacious 6 Mar, 2018 @ 10:31pm 
glad to see you got some new ones up. i built a small group of fighters taking notes from yours. love them.
M0narch 2 Mar, 2018 @ 4:39am 
@Dovahkiin Sol is actually the Latin name for sun, so my boy medlock was correct, the ship can’t land on the sun lol.
Pinky Pinkerton The Third 23 Feb, 2018 @ 11:56am 
The station would then focus on the bridge and medical rooms. I found it best to send other ships in as well, to help with the firepower, and honestly to distract the station from the ship. If somehow you haven't won in ten minutes the ship was lost. It doest however, perform against other ships extremely well. I accidently slammed into a redship my friend has spawned in and ripped it in half. XD Other than the above issue, this thing is awesome. Keep it up. I love the detail and the well thought out design and idea of the ship. It is now a flagship in my ever growing fleet.
Pinky Pinkerton The Third 23 Feb, 2018 @ 11:56am 
OK. To start off. This ship is amazing. I love it. It's exactly what I wanted from a heavy cruiser. My only issue I have is when this thing goes up against a space pirate's space staton alone. (The one that spawns normally in the game without mods) I found that for some reason the station would first target the welders, then the turrets themselves. Depending on how long the encouter lasted, if it was a minute, then your ship would win, but if it was a drawn out encouter, your ship would quickly be defensless.
Atlas 9 Feb, 2018 @ 9:04am 
@Dvahkiin Did you seriously day that?

Here's my YT, if you wanna sub, so when the eposide come out, you can see if your ship is in them ( will be btw )
Dovah 9 Feb, 2018 @ 8:39am 
Sol as in Earth haha, don'tcha know your plantary names?
k_medlock  [author] 9 Feb, 2018 @ 3:35am 
@Dovahkiin Land on Sol? The sun? Yeah that won't work. The ship is capable of flying in a moons gravity field. Nothing much bigger.
Dovah 8 Feb, 2018 @ 11:14pm 
I love the ship, and will be using it in my SE Series on Youtube, however.. It isn't 'land' worthy, like I am trying (right now tbh) to have it land on Sol... Buuuttt ya... No good.
Derpy Mantis 3 Feb, 2018 @ 5:39pm 
Really awesome ships!
k_medlock  [author] 3 Feb, 2018 @ 5:13pm 
@FeatherCluck I hope you were insured! ;P
toilet water 3 Feb, 2018 @ 4:38pm 
I used this is a ram ship once, tore a ship in half in seconds. :P
k_medlock  [author] 3 Feb, 2018 @ 3:19pm 
@FeatherCluck Thanks for taking the time to write a review! Really appreciate that you like my ship! :D

P.S: The Bombardment System can be activated by a timer block. You can find that block in the second hotbar tab of one of the flight seats on the Bridge/CIC.
toilet water 3 Feb, 2018 @ 3:12pm 
I know that comments on ships arn't supposed to be very long. So I'm just going to put down some of my favorite parts of this ship.


This ship reminds me of Fractured Space for some reason. I don't know why, I think it is the detail. Which made me cry tears of joy every time I see something so complex on this ship



The arms on this ship is impressive. I have over 100 steam workshop ships, and this actually got me excited, including the bombardment system, I'm still trying to figure out how to do that.




There is one bad thing though. I have a gaming computer, and I tend to have my graphics low when I see this ship. The detail and the system put into this thing feels like I'm being bombed by lag spikes. But other than that, it's pretty impressive.




I would love to see you keep building these magnificent ships that are this complex. It made me cry and applaud on how fast I destroyed a base of my friend.

Papa Luigi 3 Feb, 2018 @ 12:06pm 
Wow, this is incredible!!!
Starry 3 Feb, 2018 @ 11:45am 
Just looks really similair to fractured space ships
k_medlock  [author] 3 Feb, 2018 @ 11:45am 
@SollyB No. Why?
