Description
Grievous Escape pod - Time to abandon ship!
NO MODS | NO SCRIPTS | NO SUBGRIDS | NO DLC | SURVIVAL READY




After a series of accidents on OPC vessels, where, despite the use of special structures, crew losses occurred, Consolidation began production of rescue capsules that can increase survival in the event of a threat. The developed module, named by situation where it is necessary to use it, is a small automatic escape pod that can be used in various vessels and stations due to its miniaturization and reusability. The use of a block of hydrogen thrusters for acceleration allows you to instantly develop the maximum speed, so that the crew of the capsule will leave the dangerous place extremely quickly



Fully automatic escape capsule
Fast starting and departure from the scene of the accident up to 60 km (by default, the braking timer will work for 10 km)
The possibility of landing on planets
Includes items necessary for survival, such as first aid kits and tools (only if spawned in creative)



255 Large blocks
1.757 PCU
6 Cryopods
4 Parachutes
2 Small cargo containers
6 Max crew
1 Oxygen tank (up to 50.000 liters of oxygen)
6 Main batteries
2 Standby batteries



To use the capsule, you need to do:
1) Make sure that there is no wall or gate in front of the pod that would interfere with the departure
2) Press one of the buttons on the side of the capsule (they are located on the top, left and right of the first capsules at the back)
3) You have 10 seconds to get into one of the cryopods
4) After 10 seconds, the capsule starts, after which it uses hydrogen thrusters for 20 seconds (can be configured by changing the "EscapePod Launch Sequence 2") after which the capsule will start automatic braking.
5) After use, the capsule must be returned to its original condition. To do this, use "EscapePod Reset" in control panel
6) After bringing the capsule to the original condition, simply connect it to the dock with power and hydrogen supplies for refueling the pod

Hi, the Survival Ready means that the model can be used in survival worlds with all (or almost all) of the described features. Since Grievous can be built, loaded with necessary cargo (such as medkits, ammo, tools) in survival mode and can work without external support for some time, its marked as Survival Ready. And since the intended purpose of this model is escape from failed ship/station and wait the rescue I decided that there is no need in a survival kit or other complex systems.

Make sure it's a big carrier!
With deployable ground forces for planetary invasions xD!

I already have plans for new line of warships and carrier is one of the most important parts of this line :)

CaveDwaller, this is a new skin from Keens, and once i tried to make them from blocks and yeah, no success as well

In the third image, I'm curious how you managed to get the black and orange slanted lines. I'be tried to do something like that before for a road and I didn't have any success.

Also what's the 4th image? I guess just a set?

So, if OPC is getting this into logistics, it's time to start speaking about carriers and small vehicles.

Carriers should have at minimum, 10 interceptors, 8 bombers, 10 fighters, 4 dropships, 2 gunships, a multitude of ground vehicles that are cabable of deployment via dropships, this should include tanks, scout vehicles, APCs, and more. This would be for a mini carriers, but not SE friendly.

To look at a standard carrier, at least what they should be, you should look at the Revelation Assault Carrier, the new one. I consider that the minimum for a fleet assault.

At the same time, to clear landing zones for dropships, drop pods will be needed, if not gunships. These would be used to insert heavy infantry into deep enemy territory, and clearing LZs. And for assisting assaults.

This is just for general logistics of a combat ship.
