yea very true

Fair point, but if I made them any faster it would make them feel far smaller and they'd be less realistic, in real life ships this size normally move at around 20 to 30knots, faster speeds are possible but it would make my ships unstable

i love your boats but i wish teh big ones were faster, they take ages to move around

yea you might want to attach the pump you have now to that compartment if you can

ah, there sadly isn't a pump for that front compartment since you can't normally reach it, might resolve that if it's an issue

Oh yea, thanks. Doesn't seem to be workigjn for me but I had front damage

There should be a small manual pump in the engine area

Haha don't worry! I tried 1/trigger but it doesn't work. Also, for the light patrol boat is there any bilage pump system. I'm half sunken after a crash lol

Must've missed that, trigger or number key one doesn't work right?

Thank you :) I have actually thought of hydrofoils recently and was very close to adding them to my recent coast guard ship, I didn't due to lag reasons but hydrofoils are too cool to not mess with at some point!

One thing you need to fix is the keybinds for teh crane on this ship, I'm using the magnet attachment on the winch and theres no way to engage the magnet

If you want to go right ahead, I'll be happy to see another ship :D Honestly dude your ships are amazing, have you ever thought of making a ship with deployable hydrofoils to make it faster? That might be a fun/interesting building session for you if you want.

interesting, the ship is old, maybe I should update it

If you want to boost your top speed put the clutch to 0.75 and you get up to 35kts!!!

@BOSKnight. You can try: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3384146226
but honestly the smaller the better.

@random2125879 You can control the lights from small controller on the wall near the right door to the bridge.

About the generators they've been a little broken with recent updates to the game, honestly not sure how the lower one works I just got it off the workshop ages ago. good chance I'll redo the whole generator system since it is so old

What helicopter do you recommend?

Also exterior lights where do i find those I was trying and failed to find them pls advise Otherwise love the ship

question about power generation whats the purpose of the generator in the engine room if the main ones is above it im confused because im at like .83 power and dropping and i dont know how to fill the batteries back up

Thank you for the feedback!

The Functionality is a bit in question given there isn't an easy way to get to the bridge from within the confines of the ship's walls and you need to go to the engine room to start the ship... However this is without a doubt one of the most beautifully crafted ships I've seen.

I have no doubt that with a bit of time and more adjustments this could very well be the best ship ever made for the game.

CloneX_Meh. Yes, this collection is related to the ship in the update page, it's my latest coast guard vessel and a sister ship to the 005 Njord. It'll join my fleet very soon :)

does this collection have anything to do with the vessel on the stormworks update page? they both look extremely similar and also this ship is allocated 005 while the one on the update page is allocated 006?

I'm glad you like the ship :) one of it's sister ships is close to complete.

this ship is awesome, im just returning to the game since 2021/22 for some casual fun doing rescues and this ship is perfect, it runs really well on my pc most of the time too and i just noticed something that might be responsible for it preforming poorly when it does and i think its the automatic water extraction for wither the anchor area or somewhere near it because the ship runs fine until the front section of the ships hits a big wave and i noticed the sound of them being on lingered after the water was gone and thats when performance issues started, it would also explain the performance issues when spawned at some locations because some workbenches spawn it semi submerged but i dont want to apply pressure to change anything just thought the info might help you chase some of the performance related stuff whenever you get a chance but im looking forward to the other ships as well, thanks

@archer.don. Maybe, I am working on a sister ship to the Njord right now and that ship will feature a lot of fire fighting gear including water cannons as well as being larger than the Njord. I'm happy you enjoy using my ship :)

this boat is great and reliable, do you think you will ever create a variant for fire fighting?
(something with larger/more water cannons, to be used in oil rig fires) thanks, and i absolutely love using this ship!

you should make a heli to go with it

@AquaPlush You're not the only one to mention that it takes time to reach the bridge, I might be able to add a ladder or a staircase on the newer ships, thank you for the feedback!

@BUN BUN Makes sense, can't wait to see them! Actually, my one tiny complaint is that it can be a little tedious to run all the way through the hull to climb up to the bridge, but if it's urgent, noclip works fine. Again, great ship!

@AquaPlush. I'm glad you enjoy the ship! and as for the vehicles on the banner the plan is to get them to the workshop as well, (along others yet to be shown) but I can't say when they'll arrive as some of the larger ships take a lot of time to make.

This is probably one of my favourite ships on the workshop. My one suggestion would be to add some sort of lights to the platform on the back, as it can get pretty dark during the night.
Great work! Also, I noticed in the KBV collection, there are other vehicles on the banner- Will we maybe be seeing them at some point in the future?

@RickDaCrip. The bow thrusters are a decorative they worked to begin with but as I kept adding weight to the ship using them made it tip over, they no longer serve a function, as for the ladder, it is a neat idea and I understand your logic, it would make getting there much faster but there are no places for me to add such a ladder without changing the shape of the bow or covering the "COAST GUARD" sign. Remember you can always no-clip if you are in a hurry to get to the bridge. Thank you for the feedback :)

I see there is bow thrusters on the ship how do they work, can you also add a quick way to get to the bridge via ladders on the the outside. otherwise one of the best ships in the game keep it up bro.

great ship but doesnt handle so well in rough seas, it floods and water gets in the ship and causes it to list. I love the deployable rhibs. Would love to see a bigger version of this ship

nvm you have to start them without the ship moving first

the engines don't start

Factual

you gotta make some more ships like this bro these are good

PURE FACTS

TRUE

100000000/10

Thank you SOOOOO much!!

@Pretzelsticks in the bridge you will find that the back wall has two maps of the ship, between these maps is a set of switches, these switches control things such as: bulkhead doors, bilge pumps, transponder, and emergency doors, hope you find this helpful!

How do i open the emergency doors? Also, I LOVE your creation, it is SO GOOD!!

@Maj. Problem, I could consider that.

Perfect, thanks for letting me know! I love the ship, and now that the turning is fixed, it'll be almost perfect! maybe for your next build, you could do something similar size to the njord, but with some light armaments using 8PenniesDeep's Aimbot CIWS MicroController?

@Maj. Problem Just tested the system, it works great! the ship now has an extra set of propellers that move with the rudder creating a strong force that pushes the ship in the direction you want to go. It has been updated. Thank you for the feedback!

Let's hope it works! I'm not great at building ships in this game, but if it does work, perfect! ;)

@Kev1n! I could try that but you see the problem with the ship is that it's really tall, and due to that if I have too much turning force it will tip over, that's why it's so slow in a turn, but I am willing to test the system you've recommended and if it works I will update the ship, thanks!
