Hey, thanks for getting back to me, but I mean the actual logistics of printing the ship - do I get in the large welder ship and move very carefully, finishing anything I couldn't get to with the smaller welder and by hand, or am I missing something? :) I'm used to Empyrion lol

To use the main projector you will have to get into the block's settings at any console and upload a blueprint. You'll also need to adjust the blueprint orientation so that the edge of the blueprint is aligned with the bottom edge of the projector arm (it has to connect to the shipyard's grid). There should be a ship loaded in the projector by default already setup for you. If not, you'll have to manually load one using the above guidance. Hope that helps!

Hello all, sorry to post on an old thread - new to the game and found your stuff is amazing for a beginner - but how do i weld up the big projector? Do I use the welder ship? tried that but it wouldnt actually weld, but i may be doing something wrong! TIA

someone forgot to add the video showcase. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uajpYjTv74

Thank you!

Feel free!

This is an absolutely amazing shipyard! I'm a server admin and would love to include it in a scenario I'm building for my players.

Would you be open to us making the necessary changes so this works on our server? We would need to re-upload it but we would provide full attribution to you as the creator: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2439923690 .

I'll see what I can find out. Something seems to be going on with pieces missing in blueprints lately, I'm having this problem with the battleship as well.

The Factory is a bit broken. The ships sometimes come out with pieces missing or dont even start the building process, exept with the bomber. He just works perfectly. Aside from that I love this station.

Wow that's really cool!

Love this station so much, I knocked out a wall and tacked on a little addition, well I doubled the size of the station, for a refinery and some larger ship docks. Your design is top notch. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2899503543

For a second, I thought the shipyard was one of the keen poster things! This was done very well! Bravo!

@Elitephoenix and anyone having DLC issues, I'll try to add a list of the DLCs needed though I know off the top of my head I like to use parts from Heavy Industry, Sparks of the Future, and Warfare 1 and 2. I'll post the exact ones soon.

@Avergel Perhaps in time but I don't have anything in progress just yet.

Will There be a Big variant ?

Awesome shipyard! :D

tip for people who want full production; you can replace the resource drop off pad with at least 4 refineries and sorting systems at about the same size as the pad

Amazing! fits the ship i love perfectly! going to do some modifications to it! Thank you for this!

It says it only required Heavy industry but when I loaded it in a lot of the main station was not there

For the large section, I don't remember which ship I pre-loaded into the projector (it should be the default Keen blue 'corvette') however you can load any blueprint you wish and adjust it in the control room.

The factory, meanwhile, has three different blueprints loaded: default heavy fighter, bomber, and a small shuttle. They should automatically reload when you print a ship and reset.

does it make a ship?

this Endington is why space engineers was put on the market for you guys to make builds like this explode i am very impressed this englobes and pretty much puts a breath of fresh air in everyones minds to keep at it for theses beautiful creations to be shown .... respect!!

Dude! I love these designs that don't try to do everything all the time! Jumping in Ice and Hydrogen from Triton and Iron from Pertam!

Thanks! At the moment I don't have a large version in the works. Someday I may work on a large one and probably a refinery station or two. So much to do and so little time!

this looks bloody awesome

@Endington, I have to ask, do you have a large shipyard in the works as well? I've been working on finding ways to cram oversized docks and an excessive amount of refineries and jump drives onto the end of the small shipyard, only for this one to drop and make me realize I don't know the first thing about designing a station. Figure I might as well just put my plans on hold if you already have something else planned.

Thank you! I'm thrilled with this

This is a well balanced shipyard, well done.

Are you freaking kidding me with this? Holy smokes, people better be slapping that subscribe button like there's no tomorrow because this is an absolute masterpiece. Next time I do a pure vanilla playthrough this is going to be my base of operations (although I'm strongly evaluating right now how to adapt it to my current mod save).

This is so pretty! I'd love to see this used in a Keen cinematic at some point.

Thank you all! Please let me know if anyone finds anything amiss. I double check blueprints before I post them however these larger/complex ones are tricky to catch everything so I may have missed something. Also, is the factory printing properly for subscribers?

This is beautiful! :D

was just making the small one bigger cause i wanted it to look bigger

Yes, that is a void and I do have two ships in mind to fill it. One is something like a small/medium freighter (a modified/shortened version of my oiler) and the other is more of a dropship with just one large container to bring resources into orbit from mining/refinery colonies. They will take time...

Hey Endington, excellent shipyard! I was wondering if you are in the process of making a freighter for material to procure and bring back to the station. Like a medium, 4 large container version to compliment it and your designs.

i love this design

Thank you! This one took some months to make. I went through several versions trying to make it more automated. Also, beware some of the pipework has one-way flows (perhaps there's been too much time spent playing Factorio).

good looking and functional; something that a lot of ships and stations on the workshop cant seem to achieve. its one or the other in most cases, but you are really good at doing both

Great job! Love it!
