This is the older version. Look for the Mark II which is actually a Prefab in the game now!

I can't take off, the CPU usage is off the map over 1m. I think this is why the ship won't take off.

I like it (except for the block like nose) but its not a substitute for the REBAR because it has no drills in the nose. So if you could modify the nose and add some drills to it like on the REBAR it would be perfect! You could also update it to 10 in the process. :)

Glad you like it Blaktoe!

Another great job! Why build a ugly useful cv when i can spawn a kool Xcal? I added another row of plots . the personal entrance wont get used much....Im old and may get lost :) Mahalo

I appreciate you checking with me. As you have made it your own, which is the games intention as well as my own, I have no issue with you uploading your version to the Workshop. Just please give credit to the original and a link in your description :) Glad it inspired you

Do you have a personal policy on people uploading modifications of your stuff?

I ask, because as much as I liked this ship as an early-game CV, I quickly outgrew it. So I wound up practicing with the cut/paste tool, spreading everything apart and then filling in the gaps as best I could. The end result is quite a bit larger, with my own original interior, but I like to think it still has some Spathe DNA in it, and seen side-by-side, the relationship is pretty obvious.

So while I love using it for my 1P survival games, and would consider it workshop-worthy, I'm not about to go uploading something that technically belongs to someone else.

Make sure all the sensors are active from the actual device menu

i've lost its signals and motions settings, how can i put it back to default? now the ramp and the hangar doors wont work auto
XCaliber  [author] 6 Sep, 2018 @ 9:32pm 
Thanks :)

Nice, reminds me a lot of the Elite's Type 7 transport.

Thanks Tact

love the look of this great job
XCaliber  [author] 17 Jul, 2018 @ 12:39pm 
Thanks! Passenger seats take power oddly enough so it cuts down on usage. Also make sure all of the motion sensors are on by going to them manually and turning them on
legito 17 Jul, 2018 @ 10:26am 
This is great! Thank you for sharing your creation!
Quick question: why are the two passenger seats assigned to the OFFLINE shortcut? What does that help with?
XCaliber  [author] 26 Jun, 2018 @ 6:28am 
Also with all of my vessels, I have the signal access
Switches as a measure to allow you to toggle the doors open and closed while still in the pilot seat so that when u come out of Warp you can close them when the game mysteriously opens them
XCaliber  [author] 26 Jun, 2018 @ 6:26am 
Hey Scorpia thanks! Glad you got it sorted! Stay tuned in the next few days, I’ll have a solution to for you in my workshop :)
Scorpia 26 Jun, 2018 @ 5:34am 
Firstly I love the ship.
With regards to running a repair module, I was flying with an MX-5e SV for general running around parked on top, But I found I couldnt fly it into the bottom hanger for repairs (almost fits). I was wondering about making the back wider to make it fit but i decided it would be easier to upgrade to the MX8 ship which is slightly narrower, I found i can squeeze it in through the side doors for repairs. so very handy.
Any suggestions for extra guns or gun upgrades?

Also It would be good to explain the switches etc better for us that dont know much about them,
Overall great work. any suggestions on an upgrade ship for a MP Server?
XCaliber  [author] 25 Jun, 2018 @ 9:48am 
Okay Dilli, I changed the Gensets to sit horizontally and added addtional block buffer above. I dont see a temp issue now :) There must have been a change in distance for that in 8.0 as this wasn't an issue before. Thanks for the info i appreciate it. I also tiddied up the device menu a bit
XCaliber  [author] 25 Jun, 2018 @ 5:27am 
Thanks Dilli! I will revise
Dilli 25 Jun, 2018 @ 1:42am 
Hey man, I've been testing the Spathe out and found a small issue. When you are walking around in the cockpit room, Ive been getting 150 degree temps from the generator placements.

I had a poke around in god mode, and noticed the generators are mounted vertically. I found that there is actually enough room for the generators to be mounted horizontally allowing for an additional layer of steel blocks at the top. This stops the bridge from overheating.

Other than that, it's a great CV, Top work fella!
XCaliber  [author] 17 Jun, 2018 @ 12:57pm 
Cool Seven Thanks. I have no ramp there so a small SV can fit in there to repair...I realize the ramp wouldnt impead it but its annoying with the motion ramp thing :)
Seven 17 Jun, 2018 @ 10:40am 
Each one of your items I build I am more impressed. Well done.

Recommendation: Consider putting ramps on the rear of the Spathe to pull straight into it. I know we have the side ramps, but since there is already a hatch there I don't see much reason not to go ahead and add ramps. :)
XCaliber  [author] 9 Jun, 2018 @ 11:54am 
Awesome! Thanks
Drylok 9 Jun, 2018 @ 11:45am 
Ha. Derp. Yeah, only one sensor was on. Love that bay now! :-D Medic cabinet right there rocks too. It just came in _really_ handy! :-D
XCaliber  [author] 8 Jun, 2018 @ 9:38pm 
fridges shouldn't*
XCaliber  [author] 8 Jun, 2018 @ 9:38pm 
Thanks drylokol! Glad you're liking it. You are right fridges should be on there. I will update. The Ramps and doors are automated. WHat I noticed with 8 is for some reason the signal blocks seem to start in the off position when you spawn ship. Ensure that all of these are on in your device menu. Once on they should automatically work for you. Thanks again for insight!
Drylok 8 Jun, 2018 @ 9:06pm 
Very impressed with this ship! The design elements, layout, and performance just rock! You've got a style/thought plan that works extremely well. Sips fuel at 17% in atmosphere. Well done. 2 comments though: 1) Ramps and Vehicle doors -- for we circuit/switch challenged, some sort of automation there would rock. 2) "OFFLINE" -- not intuitive and the fridges should not be on it for v8. Aside from that, mondo huge thumbs up and thank you!
XCaliber  [author] 1 Jun, 2018 @ 9:28pm 
Thanks Ivellios! MSG is phenominal!
Ivellios 1 Jun, 2018 @ 9:13pm 
MSG does a good job showcasing your Ships... they look cool. Functional too.
ProNoob 30 May, 2018 @ 10:59am 
i will thanks
XCaliber  [author] 28 May, 2018 @ 8:26pm 
@hound Nice!
useless maybe check to ensure you have both the CV and HV SV set to same faction
hound 28 May, 2018 @ 7:37pm 
I have docked two sv and and an hv to mine.....2 in the hanger and one on top
XCaliber  [author] 28 May, 2018 @ 7:32pm 
When you say dock you
Mean in hanger?
ProNoob 28 May, 2018 @ 3:07pm 
can't dock any ships with it even PUP why? i like it tho
XCaliber  [author] 24 May, 2018 @ 4:34am 
Thanks hound that’s awesome! I’m glad you like it ;)
hound 24 May, 2018 @ 1:11am 
Xcaliber, I want to thank you for providing me with the customised ship that I have been looking for. It does everything I need and does it with great efficiency. I am extremely pleased with this ship and will recommend it to other interested parties.
XCaliber  [author] 9 May, 2018 @ 3:23pm 
Thanks Devilspit! She's got it where it counts!
theDEV 9 May, 2018 @ 2:42pm 
Love this ship! I really enjoy using such an efficient CV for survival. Keep up the awesome work!
XCaliber  [author] 3 May, 2018 @ 1:45pm 
Sure I’ll explain in chat
Lm_Omega 3 May, 2018 @ 11:33am 
hello, would you have the configuration of the settings of the capital Spathe- Survival at the level of the signals I had a problem I replace the ramps because of drone attack "The Settings" ReaR "Sides acces" of each ramp thank you ......
XCaliber  [author] 30 Apr, 2018 @ 2:15pm 
Thanks Panasanos! That’s the greatest thing I could ever hear about a build. I’m glad it make your game more survivable!
Pan 30 Apr, 2018 @ 2:10pm 
Coolest starter CV ever! This baby made my new survival game easier, even I used it as a mobile base for a while. It has everything you need for early game and it is easily modifiable for advanced equipment. Thanks
XCaliber  [author] 25 Apr, 2018 @ 1:26pm 
Thanks for the support cormacc2002! Precisely my intention design wise.
cormacc2002 25 Apr, 2018 @ 12:30pm 
This will be my starter CV once Alpha leaves experimental nice work great looking ship this I will use for mining mostly and perfect size.:steamhappy:
XCaliber  [author] 24 Apr, 2018 @ 9:35pm 
Thanks Clay :)
Klaypigeon 24 Apr, 2018 @ 9:22pm
