"Long Haul" freighter/miner

    "Long Haul" freighter/miner 4.91




    The "Long Haul" is a small-medium sized cargo ship which has the ability to mine asteroids quickly. She is 110 meters long 61 meters wide and 30 meters tall. She has a mass of 4600 with 53389 blocks and a thrust of 6600. Her jumpdrive charges in 18 seconds and her scanner takes about a minute to charge, this makes her able to survey sectors and find a good one to set up base in. She has a fast charging shield at 200000 at 35000 per second. This makes the overall recharge outside of combat only 5.7 seconds. However, she must rely on this shield as she only has 1,580,000 armor and 2,400,000 structure. She has four rail turrets for missile defence or fighter point defense. However with the jumpdrive and the fast shield, you shouldn't have a problem escaping from ships your own size.

    Since this ship's reactor generates 190,000 power per second and the cargo containers on the side can hold 351,000 m/3 of cargo, cargo module is in the room behind the cockpit. There is also a personal storage in the hangar, for everything that isn't sick merch.

    With its interior damage pulse it is nearly impossible to be boarded, granted you are controlling it.

    In the far back there is a hangar with a small shuttle with astrotech beams. This shuttle is recommended to be used to land on planets to avoid lag or to visit spawn on servers that do not allow larger vessels there. Two hallways lead to the main hub which has entrances to the port and starboard cargo containers and to the bridge/living quarters. The bridge has an open skylight and table for RP. The cockpit is round and has has the camera on the right side.

    Down the ladder elevator in the back of the ship is engineering where the core and both airlocks are located. The airlocks are secured with forcefields and there is a storage block outside the fields for trading items safely.

    Very good and usefull ship, question is, what does that circular tube of a pod with docking modules do?

    The tube is an extension for the docking collar to allow for more versatility of compatible docks.
    Great ship overall! Fully featured ship that is fit for tough environments. Surely feels like long hauls are possible with this one.

    If you're going on long trips then the ship has to be fun!
    I had to download the new one to post, so I must have been working from a much older build. Very nice ship and will have to check out the new one, though I totally customized the old version. Will send you pics or the .sment if you'd like to see it. I like your interior design.

    Thanks for the review!

    I would really like to see what you did :D
    I haven't even flown it yet, but I'm sure I won't be disappointed! The exterior is perfectly done, and the design of the interior is something I would like to see more of. Good job balancing between RP and functionality!

    Thanks, I think of RP as important for the enjoyment of StarMade so most of my ships are a mix of function and RP
    i love the interior and exterior work done with the ship, the perfect balance between aesthetics and practicality. My only question is what does the button under the cannon computer in engineering do?
    Captainredfox
    Captainredfox
    It is a button to manually close the salvage cannon covers in case they get stuck open
    Awesome Build 10/10 cant wait to see more from you

    love the ship, especially the hanger and how you've managed to work RP into a ship like this. only thing to complain about whenever i spawn it in, it only has three landing struts.

    This is now fixed
    Very nice ship. Turrets do not seem to be working in my version although.
