This is a ship that I've been working on occasionally over 3 years. It finally has a completed interior and exterior so I'm posting it. There are essentially no internal systems, just some un-optimally placed power and engines so you can move it around. The internals were decided long before...

I never actually bothered testing thruster plumes, I might revisit this to add them. For now I'm taking a break from exterior work.

I finally have something worth posting to this thread:

I think it would have been nice if you snowballed my ships into the other competitions since there were no competitors. I think some config changes made one of my ships unable to use its missiles anyways, oh well.

Crew quarters. Yes if you fall out of bed you die. The crew quarters are very open and compact. It's just a place to sleep and store your belongings. As you can see there is also a very narrow walkway between rooms. Sample garden. Gardens will be placed in between two rows of luxury...

There are much fewer entrants than I expected

I just tested the exact setup you stated and it didn't work.

Just entered exam month. Gotta study and I just had a wave of assignments. I've been thinking a bit more about the interior design, I also made a bathroom.

So long as the game is programmed correctly docked entities should only do calculations when they move and so it should be fine. Although I must confess I bought a new graphics card to work on this ship because 15fps just wasn't cutting it.

Thank god for copy/paste. The biggest hassle installing the hallways is going to be putting in the doors and all the clocks for damage detection. Every door in this ship is going to be a rails door and there will probably be a couple thousand doors.

Military grade 2 hallway: All hallways will have blue and red lights. A flash of blue signifies a call to battlestations. Red means that adjacent hallways are damaged and should be avoided. All hallways also have builtin damage detection.

It's full size, 1305m long. Like I said it will probably be finished in a couple years and that's because I'm likely to have weeks or months where I just don't want to work on it. It will be completed one day though.

And so I embark on a quest to finish the Andromeda Ascendant: This is the smedit shell I have as of right now. I will be going over the entire exterior two to three times to remove the smedit garbage and make the ship symmetrical, as well as change the hull to white advanced armor. Planned...

This miner has a medium sized salvaging array on the bottom. You can activate it and open the bay doors from within the core using the new logic block. With a massive amount of shields, 60% ion and 6 point defense turrets this miner can safely mine in enemy territory and even go on its own recon...

Considering the front 50% of the ship is decoration I'm not sure I understand why...
