Solid 8.5/10, suprisingly kept afloat for hours upon hours of max wind, kraken attacks, & around 13'000 of weight

did you add the sink button yet?

Hi @DogWifComputer,
The containers are weak generators coupled with a battery, branded as a product of "ABB", which has a similar "Containerized ESS for ships" battery.

I'm planning on revising that project down the road aswell, as I've learned a lot since I created that container. The mass of the container is ~3000 mass units, and you can download it here:

What are the containers you used for the image?

Nice thats going to be cool keep up the good work

Hi everyone! I've started doing a complete overhaul of this ship and it will undergo a lot of changes, based on suggestions and problems you've had with the vessel. Stay tuned!

looking forward to the update

Eh its ok, I got my self a shore crane that solved the issue.

Hi @Lego_Teh_Eggo,
It's a design fault of the ship. It can be fixed using another pivot, but I'm planning on revising/updating this ship later down the road.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

Is there a reason the crane can't be rotated more than 90* in either direction? I cant get to cargo spot 1

@._Dr.Pybro_.

Glad I could help!

@Toyota Camry
Thank you so much

@._Dr.Pybro_.

There is a Throttle Cut-Off toggle button right next to the throttle gague and helm. You have to deacivate it. Then, and only then will W and S have an effect on the motor.

I cant figure out how to start it i tried everything and i cant figure it out

@schaun.sanislo

Thank you for the recommendation! If I have the time, which unfortunately I currently don't, I'll probably modify this vessel and add a sink button, aswell as the option to disable all the bilge pumps.

add a sink button please

Hi @guggenheim,
The top speed without any extra weight at calm sea should be ~17kts.

Whats the top speed?
Amazing ship btw! Good for MP

thanks

Ram really hard into rocks multiple times. That should overload the system and sink it.

please add a sink button

is there a way to sink it??

@Toyota Camry thanks i know how to work it now

@sups555 on the right side of the helm there shpuld be a Cut-Off toggle button turned on. You have to disemgage this button to move using the propeller.

Its not going forward after I turn of the engine and steer. can someone help me understand why?

Certainly, I have no issue working with someone to help them.

You still don't produce enough charge to power your electric motor, for that you might need 3-4 engines and then I'd have to re calculate the gearing but i you want i can try and pursue that and report my findings.

I built an electric ship with dual electric motors and i found 3000 to be enough electrical charge for that. So for your ship i estimate 1700-2000 as what you need which is entirely possible in your engine room.

@Talia Kuznetsova (Snugglisan~)

Thank you very much for the extensive testing and the feedback. I really appreciat the effort you've made to make this vessel better. I've more-or-less "temporarily" changed most of the problems based on your recommendations. Take note that as I don't have that much free time, I won't be able to work on this "project" a lot, so future changes may come late.

I am still very thankful for your in-depth analysis of the vessel and I would be overjoyed if you decide to stick around and provide me with more feedback based on your observations!

@amy To power the generators, you have to go down to the engine room and turn the two diesel engines on. Since there is no clutch, you can just adjust with the two levers the desired power level, and let them run.

You can get about 10fps+ back from putting physic flooder blocks in all of your rear tank, mid tank, and front tank.

physics flooders arent a cure all so they need to be used carefully but in those spots i got 10 fps bringing it from 47 to 62 at creative dock.

I have conducted experiments and found that with a single gearbox pointed torwards the engines at 2:1 and with 2 generators at 10.5 rps you get a total charge of 1000+.

Fuel consumption is only 2.4L/s total. much better than your stock 984 charge at 16.92rps at 10.4L/s

Also on another note your navlights are illegal, your speedometer is in m/s not knots, you have room for lag optimizations,

HOWEVER, do not take this as me saying your ship is trash. It's functionally usable, has the highest cargo capacity i've ever seen, works fantastic, easy to drive, and your engine room is great.

HOW DO YOU POWER THE GENS

sorry I know I am an idiot but how do you turn it on, and what keys are the axis

I really appreciate the kind words. I'll look into enhancing the first person experience when I'll have the time. Thank you so much!

Sounds awesome and again, really really amazing ship, especially because of its performance. It runs super well not just near land but also in multiplayer and is packed full of features. Maybe you could even add a bit more first person equipment here and there but nonetheless I see how you paid attention to detail and its purpose and I love it.

@♥ ןxxǝdɯɐן | AriBae ♥

I'm glad you like it, thank you!
Thank you for pointing out the mistake.

Vessel is now updated --> Check the changelog.

Absolutely stunning, however, I cant find a way to refuel the lifeboat on initial spawn. :/
