@eaglegundam: Yeah, I will take my time...
Hope you enjoy it nonetheless though :)

hey thtats fine take your time

@eaglegundam: The issue is known and I posted a note in the description. It is recommended to run without thruster damage or modify the ship to adapt to the update. I will also fix the issue when a new generation of HDY bombers is introduced, but I am working on other projects at the moment so I can't tell you when that'll be :/

There is a issue with the thrusters
youll thrust damage your self before getting to the target

Nice ship. Papier-mache strength, but easy to modify and looks cool.
Will use it in my mod as pirate ship in one team with your Stubborn frigate.
P.S. only one hydrogen tank are extremely low for survival, really, you should stop make hydrogen ships with a fuel reserve of 30 seconds flight. First thing I've done here - changed large container and conveyors in center of the ship with tanks.

eject from the side of a ship with side roter doors

*sigh* no. I was trying out different concepts but so far none of them seems like a cool idea.
Chi-0 1 Jul, 2017 @ 6:28am 
still no carrier?

@NTSFMagellan: Good name suggestion!! I was running out of ideas lol.

Time to Create the Reclaimer Class Supercarrier, AND RECLAIM HADES DRIVEYARDS

Gloriously Powerful, and efficient.

@jw: No, you can run it with thruster damage on. The thruster damage on hydrogen Thrusters is only on the central block of the thruster, as long as that is free you can cover the rest up and nothing bad will happen. k_medlock is a master in this by the way.

@Deathlok-L17: Thanks my friend, glad you like it. ;)
GudTaters 14 May, 2017 @ 6:54pm 
Does it need thruster damage turned off? It looks like the large H-thrusters would interfere with some of the blast door blocks and other thrusters. Just would like to know so I don'y have to exit the world and then reload it again. :)
Deathlok-L17 14 May, 2017 @ 6:24pm 
looks great man :D

@TheLeftFieldRebel: Thanks for the kind words man, appreciated ;)
LeftFieldRebel 14 May, 2017 @ 2:55am 
good job mate.... looks great :)
Chi-0 12 May, 2017 @ 12:43pm 
i'm going to make a ship that carries two of my modified bombers, shipseption
J4R  [author] 12 May, 2017 @ 12:09pm 
@r.hollands: Of course not, though I would be grateful if you'd credit me should the product get published to the Workshop. Thanks ;)
Chi-0 12 May, 2017 @ 12:01pm 
would you mind if i made a launching mechanism for it?
Chi-0 12 May, 2017 @ 12:00pm 
good choice cince i'd probably crash the ship and forget to save
J4R  [author] 12 May, 2017 @ 11:20am 
@r.hollands: Why would that be? In fact, though I will sadly decline the offer, I feel hooured by it! I am not the best or most patient teacher and, sadly, my personality tends to be a bit unusual and I also get angry quite fast. I tried this before and it did not work very well, so I think I would not be helpful. If you want to learn off someone who is REALLY good at building, you should ask k_medlock or Dr. Dark Sith Skeeter. They both are talented builders and both are better teachers than I am.

I wish you the best of luck mate!

i re-read my last comment and just realised how terrible i started it :steamfacepalm:
Chi-0 12 May, 2017 @ 9:54am 
good build. about the carrier ship your makeing, i'd really like to help. i may not know all the building techneques but i am good at logic with timer blocks and know someone who is amaising at c++. i'd understand if you decline this offer but i would like to learn off of the building while helping out.

@Son o'Petrified: No, I use only a generator and an oxygen tank. However, the craft is meant for space operations, so the consume is coming in bursts and not constantly. In fact, this worked so far,a friend of mine used some of my previous builds in survival to good effect.
However, it is also the first time I built a small ship of that size.

@Dr. Dark Sith Skeeter: Thanks man ;) Yeah, when I use the Domain sykbox I tend to have problems with the contrast.
Dr. Skeeter 10 May, 2017 @ 2:12pm 
The thumblail pics' contrast should be higher. Nice build tho.
JCapt 10 May, 2017 @ 2:06pm 
@UBT/TheBudgieAdmiral, Since I made the Raptor , I realized that it is not a wise idea to have an all hydrogen build as they run out of fuel extremely fast if you use just generators... So, do you have a hydrogen tank on this?
k_medlock 10 May, 2017 @ 10:11am 
Hey np haha just felt the need to comment twice ;)
J4R  [author] 10 May, 2017 @ 7:54am 
@Son o'Petrified: It is designed to be useable in survival, so it has all the stuff fully conveyored. However, I didn't test it specifically for survival use, mainly because I don't intend my ships to face harsh ressource limitations. Like in an actual naval fleet, the ships would operate together, one covering the shortcomings of the other. The conveyoring is mainly because I feel like not connecting all the stuf would lead to a pretty OP design. However, the central hydrogen thruster should be able to be replaced with an ion thruster without messing up the connections, in case it turns out as a major issue.

@Titan In The Mist & k_medock: Thanks a bunch! Your positive feedback means a lot to me. Sorry I kept you waiting so long medlock, I had kind of forgotten about publishing it somehow.
k_medlock 10 May, 2017 @ 6:24am 
Didnt know you detailed this good ;)
k_medlock 10 May, 2017 @ 5:36am 
I like that ACI engineer! :D Anyhow awesome fighter... finally i get my hands on this beast!
That Gaming Titan 9 May, 2017 @ 8:50pm 
That is a nice design of a big smallship
JCapt 9 May, 2017 @ 2:12pm 
This is a beautiful bomber! I like the wing design and the shape. Nice nose. :)

Is this intended to be survival ready, though? 'Cause the hydrogen tends to be an issue in that respect, unless you have backup thrusters.
