@StarfleetPups if you wish I guess. This model is piss old and is pretty terrible all around. If you are to publish it's modification on workshop - just give link to me or this model in the description. Thanks.

if you don't mind i would like to see if i can make this work with different weapons.

To anyone still in this comment section - thanks for kind words, but this build is an ancient mess of mods and awful proportions, lol. To keep this thing working, one would probably need so many modifications, that it just won't be practical. The better Venator is coming soon.

It's a wonderful ship but a massive pain to build alone and in survival. Great Job

To those who are wondering why the ship wont fly, it starts off as a station so its programmed not to move. Go to the terminal - info and convert to ship for it to work like an actual ship. RECOMMENDED FOR PEOPLE WITH GOOD PCS

Uhh, the ship won't drive, I press W but the thrusters don't work.
Onyex 21 Oct, 2020 @ 8:51am 
well i know what im using for a game of survial

IT'S BACK! YES!!!
Gitar_Reo 21 Jun, 2020 @ 1:45am 
It doesn't let me spawn it, just says the maximum grid size is reached, it says this about a lot of much smaller builds too, how do I change it?
Sandiersfinx 13 Jun, 2020 @ 7:14am 
Wonderfull build! Even when flying I still got 40 fps!
Kiba Mar-Glas 4 Feb, 2020 @ 11:55am 
this is great, its a shame SE cant handle it to be moving would be great for this to be practical
ladiesman217 3 Feb, 2020 @ 6:01pm 
ok makes sense
Alec R.  [author] 3 Feb, 2020 @ 10:52am 
@Rex no, at least not now and not from me. I am already moving to a smaller scale, just because 1:1 in current SE is an absolute train-wreck of a size. It's hard to work on, takes a lot of time, is very performance-heavy, and absolutely impractical.
ladiesman217 2 Feb, 2020 @ 7:56pm 
do you think we could get a 1:1 Providence or Munificent someday?
Sebastian Rowelle 13 Jan, 2020 @ 10:50am 
yeah, i dont use it that often, and usually only in space to see how good it is at destroying fleets of smaller ships i send after it, just for fun. super excited to hear about the replacement model, i bet its going to be awesome :)

@monkeyman8290 It works fine mine is howering 2600m about the land and it looks nice
Alec R.  [author] 13 Jan, 2020 @ 4:35am 
@monkeyman8290 last time i tested it was almost a year ago, and it was pretty much able to hover in earth-like atmosphere. In the end, this model is not practical at all, and if you are really concerned about your PC burning - you probably shouldn't use it. I have already started work on replacing this model.
Sebastian Rowelle 12 Jan, 2020 @ 4:13pm 
let us know how it goes for hovering in atmosphere... i have been afraid to try in case it cant and the crash melts my processor >,>
Alec R.  [author] 12 Jan, 2020 @ 10:45am 
@Kotas you can try that, but ship wasn't designed for such and has no landing gears. So hovering in atmosphere - possible, actual landing - not really, unless you decide to heavily modify it.
Kotas 12 Jan, 2020 @ 10:43am 
@AlecKDY thanks and is it possible to land on platen with this ship ?
Alec R.  [author] 12 Jan, 2020 @ 10:04am 
@Kotas try going to "K" menu on ship, via button panel or seat, and go to "Info" section, try converting it from station to ship
Kotas 12 Jan, 2020 @ 8:14am 
@Alec KDY Hi I have problem with you model. I have just spawned it and it cannot move. I have tried your seat and them i ued mine and it didnt work. Could you help ?
Alec R.  [author] 31 Dec, 2019 @ 3:58pm 
Yeah, @monkeyman8290, this can be a case. I haven't visited a model for quite a while, so hard to say for sure.
Sebastian Rowelle 31 Dec, 2019 @ 3:29pm 
its been a while since i have spawned this particular ship, but i believe it spawns in as a station, just go in and make sure its actually a ship and not a station.
nightmaredaemon 31 Dec, 2019 @ 3:14pm 
I was in the seat. For some reason when i held W it wouldn't move at all but otherwise the ship does work
Alec R.  [author] 31 Dec, 2019 @ 2:31pm 
@deadskull121 there should be a control seat on one of 2 bridges. Seat should be in between two pits.
nightmaredaemon 31 Dec, 2019 @ 12:56pm 
Just installed your blueprint. Is there a way to make the ship move? I'm in the captains seat looking for where the cockpit is to fly it but cannot find said seat
Alec R.  [author] 7 Dec, 2019 @ 4:31am 
@markcowen regarding my model - there once was an experiment to convert one, but it was never released.
Texan 6 Dec, 2019 @ 3:56pm 
Brb is there a empire /dark verson of this ship?
Alec R.  [author] 6 Dec, 2019 @ 6:31am 
@Alastor which one? I don't remember deleting any comments here
Pixel 5 Dec, 2019 @ 5:25pm 
why was my comment removed
Alec R.  [author] 13 Oct, 2019 @ 10:33am 
@Chieve nope, no access. This thing was never intended for survival - too big and impractical. You'll have to do some modifications, that's for sure.
Chive 13 Oct, 2019 @ 10:23am 
But it spawns with no power and no way to get to them? there is no ammo in it for anything either.
Alec R.  [author] 13 Oct, 2019 @ 9:39am 
@Chieve it's powered with Singularity Reactors from "Slyke's Singularity Blocks"
Chive 13 Oct, 2019 @ 9:37am 
How is this powered? As it spawns with no power.
Alec R.  [author] 21 Sep, 2019 @ 1:13pm 
@xMrDemonicWolfx they're always on. If they don't work - make sure you have shield mod in the world, and access ship system via "k" or "f" from any button panel / lcd / seat, find shield generators (they can be hidden, I don't remember for sure), and try to trun them off and back on.
LT.Bumrush 21 Sep, 2019 @ 11:43am 
hey, are the sheilds always on? and if the get turned off is there a way i can make sure they are on?
KaiBowman 30 Aug, 2019 @ 11:48am 
Ok thank you. Currently i have to disable a bunch of workshop items because I downloaded more today and the game crashes whenever i load a save..
Alec R.  [author] 30 Aug, 2019 @ 7:23am 
@kainyman this project is quite old by now, and has some flaws and issues that are very hard or even impossible to cure or even find.

About warning thing - don't worry, this is absolutely normal and appears for everybody. It means that adding more blocks may lead to phisics breaking. This doesn't happen with stock model, at least I haven't seen anybody complaining about it.

And about settings - the most intensive ones are Shadows and Post Processing. Setting like quality of models, textures hardly affect anything. Try to lower or completely disable shadows or / and post-processing.
KaiBowman 30 Aug, 2019 @ 4:24am 
What would be the best way to reduce lag with this ship? also whenever i spawn it in the game says it has reached the max amount of grid something (not related to block limit thingy as i always turn that off) and It is always around 10fps for me on low settings?
Alec R.  [author] 22 Aug, 2019 @ 3:56am 
@MOUTCHXP check if grid is converted to ship, and control ship from main seat, which is on one of the main bridges.
MOUTCHXP 22 Aug, 2019 @ 1:54am 
I can't move with the ship. I have all the mod but nothing I can't move, any suggestion ?
Alec R.  [author] 13 Jul, 2019 @ 7:11pm 
+CheddaCheese go to advanced settings of the world and disable all block / pcu limits. You are welcome.
CheddaCheese 13 Jul, 2019 @ 6:32pm 
Hey, I can't place the ship due to the limit on the max grid size. Any suggestions? Btw I like your ship designs
Alec R.  [author] 8 Jul, 2019 @ 12:06pm 
+andrewkpratt thanks!

Amazing build, It was a little laggy at first but after a minute my pc was fine. Great job man.
