Hey there! Just wanted to let you know that I'll start working on the spaceship repairs soon. I'm hoping I won't forget, since I have a lot of important projects coming up for my subscribers on my YouTube channel. I'll get to it one of these days. Here’s the link to my channel if you’d like to subscribe: YouTube Channel. It's totally up to you!

@wulfric Fifer

Go crazy! Send me a link to the video. I'd love to see what you do!

Hi Matthew Spindler,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Wulfric Fifer, and I’m reaching out regarding a project you previously completed, the Colony Heavy Lander from 2015.

Although I understand there’s a newer version available, I’ve developed a special connection with this older project and would love to take it over and breathe new life into it. I remember vividly the day you completed it—it was truly an epic moment.

I’ve been considering recording the restoration process and uploading it to YouTube, showcasing the journey from its original state to its revival.

Looking forward to your response.

Best regards, Wulfric Fifer

The Hydro Tanks are using Stockpile on. You have to toggle it off to be able to fly it

just a note this thing is currently a brick was doing some testing on it in single player and it's not moving restarted power and cycled engines nothing.

This ship need a hydrogen tank for work ;)
Genges Kong 9 Dec, 2018 @ 8:07pm

LordGeneral 9 Jul, 2018 @ 5:58pm

Joeyicetera 21 Apr, 2017 @ 5:53am

𝖇𝖚𝖓𝖆 16 Mar, 2017 @ 1:44pm 
Need an update
DaRkWoLf 18 Jan, 2017 @ 3:13pm 
Needs some rework. Hydrogen Tanks are not connectet so engines is off at spawned state. Hangardoors needs buttons also aaaand its not powerfull enough to actualy land on earth lol
Matthew Spindler  [author] 13 Aug, 2016 @ 6:54am 
I wish I could, the rotors blow up everytime i try to fly it lol
KrazyNinja117 13 Aug, 2016 @ 3:25am

Hello. I can't seem to open the main cargo door. Are there any other entrances? How does one open the main cargo door?
Matthew Spindler  [author] 16 May, 2016 @ 12:06pm 
yea thats a problem with the game
Whoa mama! 16 May, 2016 @ 12:05pm 
hello , i have a problem , projector dosent spawn rotors engines , i have already done a whole ship
Alvargon 5 May, 2016 @ 8:43pm 
Wow nice ^^
sy4zim 1 Mar, 2016 @ 6:04am 
Hey man, been loving your ship but I ran into a little problem.

When your engines get shot out and you have to get rid of that tank you'd been keeping in the cargo hold for the greater good, and you realise that the cargo bay door is on the front.

You can't really drop a tank out the front you know, the front wheels go over the edge and it's stuck there.

TL;DR, can you reconfigure the ship so that the cargo bay is at the back and the core room is at the front? because the first level of that 2014 wolfenstein game happens all the time to me
DROPSHIP CAPTAIN 23 Feb, 2016 @ 8:14pm 
very nice keep updating this model!
Rusk Rusk 27 Jan, 2016 @ 6:13pm 
I cannot find this ship in game, it is not under workshop after subscribing. Where can I find it?
Matthew Spindler  [author] 16 Jan, 2016 @ 9:48am 
This is the ship for you then
keeblster 6 Jan, 2016 @ 7:59am 
gotta mess around with the various thruster dampener on off buttons and figurre oyt what combo works. it is a difficult ship to get used to but nice once you get it down.
GRIMBUR IRONBRAID 6 Jan, 2016 @ 4:40am 
got this thing running in survival but i can't seem to go faster than 4.5 m/s in space unless i turn on the thrust override
Spartan Horde 5 Jan, 2016 @ 3:59am 
when i use projector it dosnt project engines any one help
Bonk 31 Dec, 2015 @ 4:21am 
it looks awsume but my game wont load in the VTOL engines :does anyone know how to fix it?
scotty2nuts 28 Dec, 2015 @ 12:47am 
would love to it when your done Cyrus loved the ship
Cyrus 12 Dec, 2015 @ 9:09pm 
This ship is pretty sweet!

I am actually working on converting it to use a fully functional VTOL engine rotation system that I just finished building this morning :)

Hoping to have this ship fully modified to use them tomorrow :)
Peter Cat 26 Nov, 2015 @ 9:38am 
GOOD
keeblster 24 Nov, 2015 @ 12:28am 
i'm pretty sure it was featured on the se workshop front page a couple weeks ago. :)
Matthew Spindler  [author] 18 Nov, 2015 @ 3:46pm 
idk man i didnt really think it was gonna take off like it did. sometimes the workshop suprises you.
Vegathron 18 Nov, 2015 @ 3:24pm 
Hey man. curious how did u get so many visitors so fast? did it just snowball or was it featured on a youtube thing? cheers!
vizthex 16 Nov, 2015 @ 9:37am 
Top of the pistons keeps disapearing whenever I log into the world with this in it, no idea why
[USF-N] Murderbot 15 Nov, 2015 @ 11:55pm 
My trucks look great in those shots! Thanks for linking to my page. Hope you use them more.
:-)
vizthex 15 Nov, 2015 @ 3:02pm 
I like the ship, but rly don't like how I can'ty use the VTOL thrusters for normal use, had to replace the big hydrogen one on the back w/ a T4 hydrogen one from one of my mods :c only complaint though, sry for the like 15,000th comment on this.
DROPSHIP CAPTAIN 15 Nov, 2015 @ 9:44am 
I am learning it's functions such as the VTOL Engine set up @ first I was getting frusterated because I am new to the game however, I overcame the bumbs and hardships on my situation. X) I really like this ship I want to help make another like this with you sometime or if anyone is trying to make somthing like this with no mods of course so anyone can add on or build of crash Lulz :P Thank you for making this ship I am learning how to use it day by day and sometime I will want to help make one for these for the Lulz of doing it because this game is THE best for building P v E v P and Im sure there is more to come! :) Thanks again! this ship rocks and takes practice learning how to fly!
Matthew Spindler  [author] 13 Nov, 2015 @ 7:56pm 
Yea man been using it myself. Its wonky at first but once you develop your method I was suprised at how well it works out. Thanks man, glad you are enjoying it.
keeblster 13 Nov, 2015 @ 7:54pm 
(crash) landed it for the first time last nite. crashed it again an hour later, easily repaired this time but upside down. Rotores all exploded on the third re-entry, obviously not salvageable (think it was cause of speed mod and some other mod factors). Fourth try landed it, up right, minor damage to landing gear (landed a bit hard broke most of the pistons). 5th and 6th time perfect landings. First landing at midnight, last at 6:30 this morning. love this ship gonna keep using it. side note: speed mod = more fuel consumption on re-entry, still do-able but more difficult.
vizthex 13 Nov, 2015 @ 3:16pm 
@Spaz Hope there's ice somewhere nearby
vizthex 13 Nov, 2015 @ 2:53pm 
Great ship, I like it, my one question is: Why is most of the interior catwalks and pillars incomplete? It doesn't make sense, good ship either way though, I added shields to it and now I can crash as many times as I want to on a planet's surface w/o taking any damage.
Matthew Spindler  [author] 13 Nov, 2015 @ 3:25am 
I took off and landed just fine. Like you said free fall and burn at the last minute. Taking off, use the VTOL's to lift the craft with a slight positive upward momentum and just use the local lower engines to increase upward velocity.

I used 43% of the fuel getting off the earth planet. Its completely doable. Just practice it.

Just don't try to land at night. I crash every time lol
Lonewolf 12 Nov, 2015 @ 7:23pm 
As I though. She is a touch light fuel and a bit unstable on planets. Best let her free fall in most of the way to save the fuel. Taking off empty of cargo is also difficult. Told you it was a long way up to orbit. Still a classic design and amazing bit of engineering.
Mr.Falloffalot 10 Nov, 2015 @ 7:41am 
Looking forward to playing round with this Baby...Nice work!!
>:)
technowulff27 7 Nov, 2015 @ 7:06pm 
It looks strikingly similar to the AC-1000 terror from supreme Commander 2, except more beefed up.
John McClane 7 Nov, 2015 @ 5:17pm 
They are not due to the Rotor, but oh my god... I built a ship similar to this in the past with the non-connected engines, but this vehicle adds the parts I failed to add. This thing is beautiful...
