Heavy Missile Corvette

    Heavy Missile Corvette 1.1

    This is the first ship I'm uploading here, I'm not very experienced with star made yet, so feedback is much appreciated, especially if you have suggestions for what to do with the large blank missile tubes.

    Anyway, this ship was made mostly to get some practice making ships, but also to get rid of pirate bases which it's VERY good at, haven't had any problems with vanilla bases at all. If you can find some slightly larger ships it should be able to stand up to them as well since the missile system gets rid of turrets very quickly.

    Aesthetically it's not much of a looker compared to the others here and the interior is very cramped since it's a small ship, but at least the core is easy to find.

    General:
    • Dimensions: 84 x 40 x 31
    • Mass: 5609
    • Thrust: 8401
    • Shields: 450k with 60% damage reduction from ion computer
    • Energy: 1.750.000 capacitor / 800.000 generator
    Weapons:
    2 separate missile launchers for fighters and light enemies. Fast, lock-on with explosive effect. Around 30k damage each.

    Main weapon consists of 120 missile tubes @ 18000 damage each operated by logic. The system fires 4 missiles per second over a period of 30 seconds, before reloading for 18 seconds, and is triggered by the activator in the core room.
    The ship also has a target painter that's just a low powered laser for helping you aim the missiles.

    The ship should be cap stable no matter what you do, but the logic seems a bit irregular so your tank may drop a bit sometimes.

    I love the ship. the target painters i found are actually decently useful against shields. just one suggestion... is it possible for the logic operated missiles to be swarmers? i feel like they would be more effective because the dumbfire missles on this are really only effective against big ships. that's still fine im just wondering if you could make it a swarmer.

    The ship is intended to work against big ships and especially stations, but more importantly, to work in a group. Switching to swarmers means hitting your own ships constantly, not to mention they're a lot slower. If you want a swarmer spamming ship you should wait for a download of Sven_The_Slayer's conflagration he used in starside, it's basically a stronger version with much better survivability: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAdQrIg4ZqQ
    Love it. wish i could find more like it for advanced pirates. Only personal thing i can say is that i would blend the top a little more. It clashes ever so slightly for me how everything flows together cosmetically.

    Nice logic btw!

    What do you mean by blend the top?

    Game needs more pirate ship period, i guess you could cut out the logic and just fit regular rocket launchers instead, not sure how thats going to hold up with the ships powergrid though
    Works great! The missile set up is awesome to sit back and watch, impressive logic work!
