@thompsongaming I know its been a long time, but the hydrogen tanks are connected to the 2 large connectors to the sides of the fuselage.

i built the ship now how do i refuel it ? with hydrogen i cant access the h20 gens

UnitingMatrixXCV, I don't know what happened to them. the game encounter an error and everything got deleted and i think they suffered the same problem. the ships had issues sinking into the ground and i was working on fixing them but since the save files vanished i haven't had time to work on redoing everything from scratch since i didn't just copy and paste his and edit i started from nothing and built them.

@Economysaver7 Thank you very much. Yeah, this ship was intentionally bulky since the original design was basically a large multicrew flying fortress that looks like it could fly in atmosphere on pure aerodynamics. The design slowly shrank and became lighter and sleeker to both look better and be less laggy. The design is very particular and I love seeing so many people retrofit it and redesign it into their own versions.

I really love the style of the ship, but I felt that the cargo bay made it feel a little bulky. I played around with the design of it and totally removed that bottom section to give it a really sleek look and even added retractable landing gear to it. Really like how you gave it a mix of both a cargo ship and a little bit of a luxury ship.

@Geno x 51 you know what, that might be it because I had a couple random scripts I never set up properly and were kinda buggy

It's scripts apparently, when I turn on scripts, the game crashes

Don't have to do it for our benefit, I was mostly just looking for design inspirations. It's a damn good looking ship. We've spawned in waaaay bigger things with no issues, this is the only design that has caused a crash.

@Archer Hmm okay, imm make a version that is a little stripped down to remove any potential issues that might cause crashes. Give me a few days and Ill try to get that version uploaded. Might have less pcu so more server friendly I hope.

Me and a friend also just got the graphics crash when I spawned this in on our dedicated server. The server works but we crash. Supergridding is turned off for the server.

@Cygma so turning off supergridding worked. I don't know the logic of this game but whatever. 10/10 best ship ever lol

For anyone still interested, I finally updated the blueprint to NOT include almost 150,000 kg of uranium ingots in some hidden cargo container. The ship is now at a feather light weight of 399,900-ish kg without cargo. (still heavy but around 40% lighter now)

@Geno x 51 Dang a real shame, its a fun ship. Maybe try to paste it without supergridding and just replace the rear engines. As well as deleting the lcd panels and programmable blocks. Finally try to repaint it with your own color and skin. That should make it 100% vanilla and with no settings and may work. If not, then i think its just your game being annoying and weird.

Thank you very much for the appreciation.

This is such a nice ship, but for some strange reason, whenever I turn on the ship, it now crashes my graphics card, and I don't know why, but it's amazing

@Sgt_Hydras why'd you take them down? i would love to see some alternate versions of this.. :(

Thank you Cygma, your original design was what i was looking for in a dropship and with some changes works for my purpose's in my world to move materials/vehicles down to planets and move minerals/ice up to space

Sgt_Hydras Yeah I quite like the dropship design. I prefer the one with the vehicle attached as that really utilizes the space you added to the rear. Interesting way of using the intake design.

Cygma, i have created 2 ships using your ship as the starting point, can i get your opinion on them.

So for anyone pasting this blueprint in their worlds, this ship is actually only about 399,900 kg, for some reason there is well over 100,000kg of Uranium ingots in the cargo containers for only 2 large reactors. I may have accidentally pasted in a lot of ingots at some point.

Sounds good. I'm currently finishing the interior and then will be coming back with a final paint job on the outside. If you get on tonight, let me know. You are welcome to join the world I'm building it in.It's about 93% completed overall.

SGT Sevyrs Id love to see it soon, let me know when its at a state that you'd like to share. Also I have some more ships Ive had for well over a year and I intend to update a few and upload them, they are older than this ship so not up to the same standard or skill, but still good.

Yeah. I finished it earlier but unfortunately it isn't viable for atmo usage. Currently making some adjustments to alter the design so that it will function as intended. It is very well designed for a small grid though. I can see why it took you so long. It is impressive. I look forward to more works coming out of your list. I'll post the one that works and link this design as the inspiration at the top of the info box.

Yeah I spent months on this, a lot of it seems unassuming but most of the shapes are really complex, and every empty space is most likely taken up by something

A testament to how well laid out this design is....I've been at it all night and still not done. Took a 3 hour break and am back at it but wow, this ship has a complicated shape lol.

Well in that case I'll make sure to provide a link for you! This is an awesome design. Depending on how its used, the potential is huge.

@SGT Sevyrs Yeah go ahead, I contemplated this design for a large grid but clearly opted not to haha, goodluck, Id love to see when it is done (however long it takes).

Very nice ship. If it's ok with you, gonna devote a few hours to make a large grid version of it. Loving your work. Don't worry, wont post it online so no infringement to worry with. Just really like this and want a larger version.

@spring bonnie The 4 rear ion thrusters and all the ion thrusters on the top. Those should be all that will be missing and can just be replaced with default ion thrusters. I think other than that some doors and paint skins, but again easy enough to modify, no major ship systems should need any major fixing to get working without DLC.

what all will be missing without the sparks of the future DLC?

@Venom415 Wow thank you so much, love having my designs validated. I agree upward hydro would have been good. It is an oversight on my part since for me in atmosphere I don't usually put upward thrust, but its also for space so I put ion for space situations. I should have routed more hydrogen in the smaller wing pods since they have conveyors already. Much of the design can be better but I wanted to get it out since I never finish projects.

Why did it take me this long to see this, fantastic work, love the layout and design! (though upwards hydrogens would be nice to have lol)

fantastic

@ZenWalker, that's because you need to turn on Supergridding in the world advanced settings. He has two supergridded large grid small hydrogen thrusters on the rear of the ship.

Super nice ship! Great Job inside and out, thank you for all the time you put in to it.

I love having every DLC and the ship says I have missing blocks haha

ExoticMango17
there are no subgrids, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to get these shapes without using clang inducing methods.
Also the rear top large hydro thrusters should have loaded in as long as supergridding is enabled, as it is a small large grid hydrogen thruster. There is also a hidden supergridded gravity generator under the stairs in the middle of the ship. These 3 blocks should be there.

For some reason the rear top large hydro thrusters dont load in. ive added them i think how you have them in the screen shots :)

Nice work, looks awesome!

The screen shots look great. I imagine that in game it looks better. Nice.

oh good, congrats on FP!!!

nice job finishing it off!, are there any subgrids?

Nice design! Cool!

CrimsonAdder I made sure to go back and disable the turret idle movement ;)

Final release has been published yall, Enjoy :)

would be cool to have a little film thing with it because it looks awsome

ExoticMango17 That was an error on my part. You actually kinda need the Decorative pack #2 and the Economy Deluxe DLCs. The blocks it is talking about may actually be the SIlver armor skin used in various parts of the ship. This is just a skin so it shouldn't have deleted any blocks. Check the color of the rear thrusters; If they are default grey then that is the reason for the warning.

Any and all DLC that is required for this build is pretty much optional, as most systems or thrusters can be replaced with non DLC parts, and the skins used can just be custom painted to your liking.

It says i dont have all blocks used. but i have sparks :(

:) glad you like my stuff. im would be thriiled to see your ship in the top ten. keep it up ;)

Oh snap DerMakrat, Ive seen a lot of your submissions and love them. Cool to see your stuff on the front page of the SE workshop

DerMakrat I will, this was just posted to show progress. Mostly for me to not lose the ships progress to file corruption which happened once already. I will post more pics of the exterior and interior when its done :)
