I actually cannot get this ship out of the water. I am not sure what I need to do to get it to not immediately flip upside down underwater.

100% a starter. Even more so on easy mode. The starting resource zone can easily handle making this first thing before enemies show up. I dont see the issue about it being 60k. I used to have a 64k ship as my main starter. Thanks for this build!

60k is easily a starter
you don't get mediums until like 300k

I'm gonna be honest it depends on the difficulty just leave it on 10x for a bit

@photo joe I guess the game has changed, used to be easy to get 60k resource in well under 30 mins, thanks for the new guy comment. welcome to FTD

Starter? What a joke.

sorry DJ I cannot modify steam ftd uploads for 3 years now

Can you remove the starter tag from this please? 60k resource is not a starter ship.

F Beautiful. ♥

thanks so much for getting me on that. currently trying to fix the stupid pink screen issue mac users seems to be experiencing but ill try that when its sorted, cheers pal

looks like 1 large ion and 1 large jet thruster facing forwards would allow the LUA AI to stop diving and hover with gun pointed at enemy maybe ?

hi remove the LUA block near AI, and rely on retarded game AI and manuall flight ,or modify Drabas LUA code , or add forward facing thrusters big ones somewhere (;

Hi There,

i love your ship man, cant seem to fly it manually though and it keeps dive bombing ground targets instead of just staying in the air and pounding them. love the ship but i have a feeling im doing something wrong? only just getting into this game.

It has LUA, if you speak it fluent like the guy who wrote the 300 lines of LUA code I copy pasted into its AI LUA block then easilly.
it can pretty much do what you want if you speak LUA - I dont
Off the top of my head I would add Ion thruster pointing forward and use PID/ACB (Its not as smart) set pitch PID via ACB on entering space to something vertical,use another ACB to set a PID to make it go into space on whatever event spawn, enemy contact atxxx meters or whatever, their will be other ways too
YES (:

Can this act as a laser satellite?

thnks, I have a half scale some where and thrirdstreetsaint has a full size on workshop I think

Scale'd replica is what I meant

Nice Scale Replica

@ Enderman Working on last mini homeworld destroyer right now, if you look through my collection ... Fighting Replicas :Science Fiction (movies, games,books, etc) there are a couple more halo builds, but yeah I wanna try the wartdog next with 5X5 turret spin blocks for wheels

pls more unsc builds

Space engineers is probably a year or 2 ahead of this game in its development process, but the complexity level of this game is considerably more which theoretically allows for more potential, both games rock

@jh I wish I could help but LUA code hurts my brain so I usually design my own PIDACB systems instead. u could rip out LUA block and fly manually

yes learn LUA code it uses DRABAS LUA code with a straight copy and paste from ninjapartshot
OR ask Draba very nicely what settings need to change, I dont speak LUA very well, I could rebalance power around current settings but I can think of better ways to spend an hour or so, Im guessing forward facing thruster might help

I have an issue where the ship works perfectly but in an effort to try to aim its guns rams straight into it's targets. Any ideas?

*firing main cannon*

One of the best small scale replicas Ive ever seen Put laser version on shop or ask Draba to set LUA attack patern specific to this vehicle

That's actually cool.

@saint 800 builds on shop and thats my first non coop link, but I saw some requests for updates and figured this was a neat soloution to those rquests, people do it it to me all the time and good on em if it gets more people downloading and playing its all good, BUt i will remember it aint your thing (: I doubt it steals your popularity if thats what your afraid of as they are different builds

I like your build, it seems well done. Mine was made while the AI was incapable of handling space much earlier in the game's development. However, you should really consider not linking your build on other people's build pages, its a pretty sleazy way to steal popularity, even if the old build is defunct...

Halo 1 was awesome

Nice build! I just finish Halo 1 and 2 on Legendary so seeing this is pretty cool!

what about nukes strapped to spartens

master chief could survive it through thickness of his plot armour

@Andy firing Shiva class NUkes mt be more practical

@coneezeanEmporer, nice idea I might try Halycon next

Ah, ok, i would love to see a 1:5 scale replica next, or a 1:10 scale replica of the Halcyon Class Light-Cruiser.

can i modify this to fire spartens?

wow!

nice job i love it

Thanks I tried 15degree mantle rail and LUA that worked well, I tried 3500 damage laser that worked the best, but putting the missile pods in correct place was to much concentrated explodey stuff near the ammo rack,

HALO FOR THE WIN

Other than that, a good replica.

Also, missiles are launching from the wrong area, ARCHER missile pods are located on the dorsal "fin", where the triangles are in the image you used, about half way along the ship.

Hm, a railgun would be better.

lol, awesome except when its shoots itself in the face
