Thank you for the beautifull Kyoto :)))
But one thing, it should have some more m-hangars - it's a huge carrier. But only 2 m-docks??
There is place enough for smart and hull integratet m-docks around the ship (at top, at bottom, or into the 3 tubes at the side left & right). Anyway, some mooore please, then it will be perfect! :)

Supposedly it were to have 3 M docks, but due to the back portion of the hangar being asymmetrical I had to relegate the middle pad to a single Tokyo-sized small pad.

The side tubes on the other hand contain 1 M launch tube each so I cannot put any pads there (although this would allow for rapid deployment of mediums using the Fleet commands).

Is there a way to integrate an L-dock? At X3 times there were some M0 and M1 ships that could let dock ships one class below and take them with. That was a real combat cluster. Sorry for my bad english, but I hope you can understand what I mean.

P. e. 2 Arawn can dock at the bottom, some L ships alongside the shipline and thean they can go piggyback with the Kyoto. ..something in that way.

In such case more M-docks were obsolete - you have 2 sub-carriers and some frigates in your pocket ;))

My attempt at making an integrated L-pier didn't work (if you open up the .cat file, you can see how I did it) but it would've been great if it did.

Ah ok, good job! But..uuuh! That's far too high art for me, dude... But I hope this can still be made possible somehow - also for other mods. Please keep on working to this. That would be an important improvement to the game .. imo.

Edit:
Maybe an issue: I stand at the docks and watch the Katana docking. It was 'interesting'. They don't dock, they are more breakdancing to its landing platform ^^.
And it takes too long time. I think to adjust the flypath should solve the problem. But I don't have any knowlegde about the landing path/-process of ships.
And when the Katana has docked and goes down to intern storage, it flys some minutes in the intern of Kyoto aroud (to find its final destination?).

This might be a random idea, but how about porting some ATF/USC X3 ships from Cadius?

Especially his Valahalla seems to be much better than the original one.

I've started work on putting some of his USC ships though TC/AP ships are the current priority. I might consider adding his Valhalla as a variant of the TC one although it will probably come much later on.

Hey how can I send you my variation of Kyoto?
I made some (imo usefull) changes at S-docks, M-docks (see my post above) and turretbattery splittng. If you want, you are welcome to integrate this into your mod.

btw: In combination with my additional cap- and m-weapons it results in a very nice flaggship.

If you're at the Egosoft discord, you can send me a DM there. I'll be happy to check it out :)

Sent you friend request.

Thx for update! :)

Here is a suggestion for the next Kyoto update:
From my point of view it would be good to integrate or adopt my version of the turret battery splitting. This way you have more independent batteries available and thus the possibility to fight several targets at the same time - especially with the M-Turrets for fighter defense.

I used your turret groupings for both versions :)

Are you sure? I tried the updated version and built a new ship, but it hasn't "my" groupings.
