Would be nice with a version for RE2 that was only made with base mats.. means more upgrades but you could get it earlier.. Just gotta change some thrusters with lesser versions..

Neodyminum, Erestrium, and Zascosium are not early game mats.. bit of a shame..
And this ship is most def an early game want-to-have..

The little cubby to the left when you enter the ship could be repurposed for a SV gravity gen for RE2

@2fat4airborn She is... but the thrusters get changed to higher end ones, making her a lvl 15 unlock and needing some rarer materials, such as zasc, estr, and 4 plasma converters

Is she RE2 viable?

Very cool build(s), and glad to see you back :)

i love it. thanks

An interesting shift in your creative direction. Usually it's all fancy and fantastical builds, this one looks purely utilitarian tho. I like it :)

Dobro dosao nazad dugo te nije bilo xD

Bravo pour les explications, c'est super clair ! belle réalisation

WHen I try to repair the ship to template (Repair Bay T2) it tells me there is a Code Lock and I can't do anything. What gives??

Thank you very much, Niteshaa! I am still building, yes ;)

Man....I don't normally comment on things in general....but! This is my second time coming back to the game after a long MIA. I remembered I had used your ship at one point and liked it. Now coming back and relearning everything I came across you baby again. Went into creative just to test out some builds for it and maaaaaan I LOVE your ship! Outstanding job and great feel for a beginner ship! I hope you keep up with making things in general!!

Yeah, even upgrading SVs can be costly, dependening on what you wanna use it for and how many cores you wanna build in. That's what this ship was supposed to be: a basic platform, that can perform as a starter, but also has the room for upgrading it to max CPU over time. ;)

For Reforged Eden builds I call out the amount of cores built in: like a Core- 9-build has 9 cores (including the basic core). The "CPU locked..." text I believe only says that the basic Vanilla game CPU rules are not active on a server.

And hey, you're welcome. Always glad to help. ;)

May be the easiest. I can get the gold, but need an advanced constructor. Heading down the rabbit hole now. lol Then it's a CV or Base.

Oh another question, not entirely related. When I see in workshop descriptions CPU2, does that mean it's a Tier 2 CPU? I just noticed that the server I'm on seems to have CPU tiers locked at 1.

...and thank you for the super quick responses here.

Yeah, it's not always guaranteed that you will find gold right from the start. Another way to get small optronics is by buying them from traders in Reforged Eden.

It's reforged Eden. Ah, ok. I hadn't found any in POI's yet, and there is but one small gold on the planet

You are talking about the small optronic bridges, I guess? They are pretty easy to craft or obtainable from POIs. To craft them the only "expensive" stuff would be some gold ore. But even that is not that difficult to find. Are you playing Vanilla or Reforged Eden?

how do you end up upgrading it? The CPU efficiency is pretty poor to begin with, and the optronics are super rare to make the advanced cpu extenders.

Upgraded to this from the Micro Lifter 100. I note that the drone hatch isn't actually large enough to deploy a drone from as built. I had to retrofit a 3x3 shutter as my drone hatch.

love this blue print , used every new game i started and hold on midgame ^^

I have been using a modified survivor as my work horse for a few months now. Solid design. I really appreciate it.

@Braus: So glad that you like the ship. :) I am having lots of fun creating these vessels, but it makes me even more happy if I people enjoy the builds and approve that they actually work ingame :) Thanks alot!

just wanted to say a big thanks for this ship. New to Empyrion and this was my first SV build. I really appreciate that this ship looks great and was easy to build and had so much upgrade potential, really helped me get to grips with the game. Thanks for all the work you put in.

@petrus4: sorry for the cobalt. But yeah, modify it to your needs in creative mode! :)
@NohMerci: Thank you very much! :)

I am not usually one to gush, but I had to drop by and say how much I love this ship. Looking at the rest of your catalog now!

I subscribed to this because of how much it reminds me of the Defiant from Star Trek Deep Space Nine. Although I also just noticed it needs cobalt, and I don't have much of that yet. :( Maybe I can go into Creative and strip out whatever needs that, so I can use it in Survival.

Thank you Suhiyn! :)

Very good job

I did move it to the fridge area, not sure what block I replaced, but its "integrated" and looks like it was always there. I love your luxury designs!

Oh, and thank you here again, Alastria! :) Have you found another spot for the fan then?
@AdrianVaugahn: yeah, the level of detail in the Empyrion engine sometimes does weird things.^^

Perfect starter ship, but even at mid game i still use this every day. Only problem I have, when the ship is not straight because of landing on a hill, I cannot exit the cockpit area due to the O2 fan being in the way, its too tight. Otherwise perfect ship!

P.s sorry , that parts are not missing but when i move away from the craft its like parts vanish and the engines drop to a very low resolution

HI , does anyone know why am getting this now on the ship ? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2863992803

That's why i go via the side doors lol

"need to open the hatch, then jump up, press F5, to release drone, then character falls back into cozy ship." oh, of course this does not work in zero G.

Thank you Adrian! :-) And thx Pvt.Private for your helping comments, too. :)

btw love this ship :P

need to open the hatch, then jump up, press F5, to release drone, then character falls back into cozy ship.

lol? watf? :D Through the main door? Well, that's something new. :P Try to jump and then release drone.

why wont the drone go through the hatch..... really annoying....uses the main door lol

If you intend on using it for vanilla, i suggest spawning it in creative and adding the CPU extenders T3 and saving it for personal use. i spawned it in survival, just to find it would take damage as it already exceeds CPU usage before adding anything.

A space RV

There is no specific marked spot for a pentaxid tank, but since it is only 1X2 blocks you can put it anywhere where you would place fuel tanks i.e.

Is there a spot for the Pentaxid Tank?

Yeah, the vessel has more forward thrust than backwards thrust. Because of CPU and space reasons I was not able install the medium jet thrusters in the front. By my personal experience I never felt bad for having less backwards thrust because I mainly fly forward. If this ship would be an agile fighter then yes, I would have outfitted it with medum jets in all directions, to make it stop on a dime.

But since there are the smallest thrusters installed in the front, you have the option to replace them with 2 stronger versions of thrusters, that will fit in that slot: "Large Thruster" and "Advanced Large Thruster".

If that's not enough for you, you could add some more at the cap section. Take a look at my screenshot with the Snow Variant on it. In that picture I added some rocket launchers to that mentioned spot. You could do that of course with thrusters instead.

And thank you for mentioning that crouch does work ;)

One problem I have with the (almost perfect) design is that the rear thrusters are much more powerful than the front thrusters. There may be a way to upgrade them that I don't understand. And yes if you are not aligned with a perfectly flat landing surface coming out of the cockpit is a bit tricky. My solution: crouch !

Thank you all for your nice comments! :)

@Slayde: Yeah, the collision system in this game sucks. I have figured out you can get out of a stuck situation if you press C and crouch your way out, lol.

@tahaan: Errr...there is plenty of space in the back to fit a drive and couple of generators. How did you have to remove the shutters? Oo Take a look at my screenshots. Maybe that'll help.

If you want to use the drone hatch, you position yourself underneath it, so that your back points to the center of the hatch. And if that doesn't work, you wanna try and jump and then press F5.

@ Darkelfninja: this ship is totally usable in Vanilla. Read the description. ;)

@IvarNotTheBoneless: Zdravo majstore!

strava brate !

i love this ship .....a Vanilla version please !

Hi. I love what you've done given the limited resources. I found that I have to remove the shutters and windows in order to install a Jump drive, but that's a minor issue.

I have not yet used it for any length of time but I see myself liking the design.

One issue - am I doning somethig wrong? My drone wont fit through the drone hatch.

Beautiful design. Only issue I've had with it, is getting stuck in the pilots cabin while on doing planet salvage ops. If you're not perfectly level you get wedged in the doorway and cant get out. I've solved it unfortunately by ripping out the corner of the CPU expansion bay to give myself the room I need. Also added an open cockpit to the top so i dont have to climb in and out of the ship during high up operations, but thats a personal preference thing. A solid 9/10 ship!
