Your Ship As Craftable Item In This Mod
We did some "show your coolest creation made with this mod" in the past ( http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/official-madtulip-s-spaceship-mod-contest-win-starbound-and-terraria-steam-key.67830/ ) but this time we will include your desidn in this mod!

Im preparing a new one time use item type (i.e. Nostromo Ship License) which will replace your current modded ship with a different one (i.e. the Nostromo). This items will be craftable or sold by some ship merchant. Imagine the process beeing similar to the T1 to T8 progression of the vanilla ships, just that theese ships will also be made block by block and "editable" afterwards. The process will use mechanics similar to those used to deploy landing pods but will also take care of some other collision issues, collection of your old ship blocks (and returning them) and so on.

The ship you create:
- has to ONLY use this mod (and modules in a box dependency).
- has to use the initial teleporter.
- does not contain any chest/locker which contains any stuff. Empty chest/lockers are ok, recommended even.

Even better then a single ship would be a whole tiered series of ships (similar to the T1 to T8 vanilla progression). Maybe with a racial theme or whatever comes to your mind. (one save per ship (see below). We will review all ships and try to condense what is fitting together, esthetic or thematic.

In order to participate:
- post a screenshot of your ship in this discussion.
- Get your savegame zipped from i.e. D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\storage\player and upload it to i.e. dropbox. Post the link to the files here together with your ships screenshot.
- If you like you can provide some name and/or fluff text for the ship to include in the Items tooltip/description. We will include your name on the item like i.e. "Nostromo by Ripley"

I hope this produces many nice designs and increases the available content by a nice new feature for everyone. Have fun designing! :)

yes,yes,yes and i dont know yet. the general idea is to not mess with the game balance and that things should be thematic, consistent, in racial variations, support broad/general application. The ships would probably be sold by the pirate guy who is selling some ship things in vanilla atm, or probably more likely there will be a craftingtable for ship. Im thinking about the ressource cost for each ship will be the summ of its parts so that they cant be used to farm things. I would remove single special fancy looking pink vases from those recipes by hand if theres no good way to acquire them but they support the look of the design. about fluid - im not sure miab is handling those correctly. test with a scanner.

yea maybe better. depends if you like the tidious playstyle i guess :).

i think miab doesnt support wires. make it so it can be serialized with miab

for the other things just check if modules in a box can read it, because thats the library i will for that series of items

can you add recipe to replace this ship with vanilla one? (it should make turning this mod off possible without glitches)
