Brand New Flag Ship

[Luscifer]

After putting many hours of work into it my new flagship is finally done and I have a mighty need to show it off to everyone.

This ship is good for PVP Servers featuring very powerfull weapons and shields, all supplied by a very large power supply.

It is also excellent for RP as well having a full interior you can move around.

I am also hoping someone can help me think of a name for it.

The Stats of the ship
Mass: 354,138.8 (Blocks: 3504368)
Length: 557, Height 241, Width 293
Power 999,953,222.4 (17,588,800.0 e/sec)
Thrust 402,469.3, Power Cons: 503,337.0 (Blocks: 503337)
Shields: 30,054,717.0 (87,868 s/sec)

And now... PICTURES!

From those screens, I can tell you are one hell of an interior designer, my only suggestion is to try and put more detail into the walls, floors, and ceilings, as they are a bit plain. Once you do that you'll be golden. The ship itself has a nice shape, and a good level of detail, I'm just not crazy about the bubble of glass.

Also, if you use heptas as end pieces on your benches they'll look 800% better.

 

[starhaiden]

did you use glass or crystal for the bridge?

It has a Power Regen of 17-million e/sec ???! Perhaps you mistyped that?

Overall, it has a good, sturdy, aggressive look -- so I would name it something that invokes those attributes. "Cerberus" comes to mind, but that's probably been done ad nauseum already. Nidhogg, maybe? Can't give my best stuff away though -- names are important! (Diamond-Jellyfish is taken, sorry.)

(But I also don't love the over-large glassy bridge. And the the prow has a slightly "Edsel" feel... But, hey, yer waaayy ahead of me!)

I think the interiors are well done and don't need excessive detail, but that's coming from someone who considers interiors relatively unimportant. (Aliens need no lavatories!)

1 last thing: I'd like a view of the stern -- might wanna post a pic of that on the "Engine Porn" thread....
2nd last thing: Don't throw that older ship away. Donate it to the newly formed Ascendant Salvage Yards (another new thread started today.)

Nope I didn't. Proof:

I actually upgraded it a bit and it is now at 20 mil

(But I also don't love the over-large glassy bridge. And the the prow has a slightly "Edsel" feel... But, hey, yer waaayy ahead of me!)

The Bridge didn't end up looking as good as i'd imagine it would but i am reluctant to change it because the amount of effort it took. Besides the inside the of the bubble, the walking space turned out great IMO

And the Edsel Feel you get from it is a array of penetration shotgun that eat 100 Mil Energy (10% of total) per shot.

DONE!

And i'll look into your second point as well

See -- the stern is "prettier" than the bow! (The Edsel comment was intended to have a humor-factor, sorry. I understand that I'd prefer to not be close enough in-game to that feature to make such an observation...)

Also, my incredulity in response to 17-mil power-regen is prompted by observations/info from: starmadedock.net/threads/remove-the-diminishing-power-regen.6297/
So I assume you've made alterations to your server or something (?) -- which would not translate to another environment (ie. uploading your beast for community use.) But that's something I should do to my sandbox server! ~.o

I think you may not be properly understand what was meant.

Power has a softcap, which just means it's less efficient after a certain point. Power regeneration uses a formula that I summarize as [FlatRate*BlockCount]+[GroupingBonus].
[25*Block] + [2000000/(1+1.000696^(-.033(SumofDimensions/3)^1.7))-1000000] is the full equation.

Only 1 half of that equation ever reaches it's cap; the grouping bonus. The flat rate never does.

To use Lusc's ship as an example,
25*[block count] + [Softcap'd group bonus] = 20 million
25*blockcount + 1 000 000 = 20 000 000
25*block count = 1 900 000
Block count = 76 000
He would have around 76 000 reactor blocks thrown somewheres around his ship.

It's a softcap, not a hardcap afterall.

It's an interesting ship btw, arm rotor looking bits see a little big for my tastes, but is still nice.

Thanx for the clarification, m8. Resume normal thread activity.... These are not the droids you're looking for...

Not modification where made to the server AT ALL this ship and it's stats are what you are gonna get if you download it from the link at the bottom. I made this so it was good for RP and great for PVP. My last one was ok but i got close a few times to getting destroyed in fight againts other players. I wanted to make sure i could dominate the field and look good while doing it.

Let the record show that I have been put in my place. Again. (I keep tryin' to tell yall Ima NOOB !!! )
Of course, this means I'm gunna hafta make my ships even bigger now. And I hate turrets, so that's a dangerous combo...

And just as friendly-but-petty parting pot-shot, there seems to be an extraneous "s" in your name, sir. Just what are you trying to "luscify" anyway?
