Eeh, that really depends on the design of a ship. If it's a solely pvp ship, then on a smaller ship, sure, on a larger ship, not as much. On a more RP centric ship, though, it's not that huge a loss as there is already substantial "wasted" space in the form of interior, and thus using some of...

Hahaha, to be fair, irl battleship turrets were inset for the same/similar reason: to make space for the irl equivalent of systems. In the case of a turret, this would be the loading mechanism, ammo hoist, and w/e is necessary to move the turret.

Alright, well keep up the good work! Are your self-powered turrets inset into the ship, or are all the systems in the box on the surface of the ship? Insetting the turrets gives more room for systems as well as providing more protection to the dock. Also, I like to build the turrets off of the...

Since you're fairly new I figure I'll ask some about your turret building :D To start, are they currently powered by the ship, or are they self-powered?

That stinks man, best of luck with the new computer and future builds, though! Cost-wise it might not be worth it, but you could see if there's a data recovery service that could salvage your data from the borked hard drive?

Thanks XD

Aighty, that's fine! Tbh, it took me a little bit to figure it out since I didn't manage to find anyone really explaining it, but when I realized all you needed was like a one block gap, I've been leaving my thrusters mostly dim, but highly detailed, so that when I start flying, they light up...

Not bad! I like how you broke it up and how the glow is coming from the center. Do you have a gap between the actual thrusters and the surface so that the plume still works?

I definitely agree with this sentiment. While I already know the construction of elevators, including advanced designs, newcomers would greatly benefit from having visuals of the construction.

Those are rookie numbers!!

PRESENTING the all new WizTech Variable Environment Containment and Combat Suit, a hi-tech, armored combat suit coming in a variety of paint schemes to match your faction colors as well as features to help an individual survive the rigors of space. I took a small amount of inspiration for this...

Late reply, I know, but you're referring to orthogonal view by "flat" :D I like how that cruiser idea looks, go for it!

Np! You would end up building a hole, more or less, for it to sit within, and you could have a lip on the exterior to cover up the internal edge of the hangar. Hell, you could even just angle-mount just the dock blocks themselves, and use slabs to make the room look angled without being a...

For the raider bays at an angle, you could build the bays as seperate "ships", dock them on turret docks, and rotate them as needed?

Thanks! My brain honestly does a shit job linking names with things, so having a descriptive name that will allow me to figure out which turret I need I find very useful. Honestly, if I could make turret sizes more standardized, I could shorten the code, but that won't happen. XD Thanks, I'll...

Before you embark on reading this somewhat of a wall-of-text, I'd like to say I'd VERY MUCH appreciate feedback on this idea, as I want this to be useful a system as possible to allow people to more easily incorporate preexisting turret designs into new ships, or to refit new turrets into old...

XD hopefully it will be PVP-able!! I plan on loading it with RP features too, though. Tbh, I've never played on a server as I feel I would be of no contribution due to how irregularly I play ^-^;

While the finished product DEFINITELY won't be an exploration ship, as it will sport some massive turrets (taking some inspiration from NuclearFun tbh with my plans), those are interesting sounding names to consider, thanks!

Nice looking, though not the same (at least not intended to be) body shape ^-^;

That's a possibility, though I wasn't considering naming it directly after another ship, and where I was snagging the drop pod idea from was Halo XD
