      I\'ve left the Nocturne and Ensemble up, but have decided the current models will not be updated. The amount of work required to adapt the existing designs is going to be time-consuming and, I feel, wasted. So. Tonight, I intend to get the much-overdue Breakfast Ship finished up. I will work...

      The best idea for hulls ever.

      Only the turrets on ships auto-target the core, are super-precise, and you can\'t hide where your core is without using stealth.

      The best idea for hulls ever.

      Dont' change 'em. Just make it so that the core has as many hit points as the ship it's attached to has mass if the ship's current mass exceeds the some default value.. You don't need to armor it or anything. There you go. Feel free to deposit millions of money-dollars directly into my Swiss...

      The VFW engineering drones and our secretive order of shipsmiths have offered the following suggestions. These are by no means definitive and you may disregard any or all of them. 1) Main turret coverage: Your ship lacks any forward underside turrets. We\'re assuming this ship is designed...

      NOOB QUESTION HERE

      There are work arounds, but those mostly involve docking it at a faction station.

      The difference between greifing and open warfare.

      Most of what I hear called \"griefing\" is just guerilla warfare when we\'re talking about a conflict between two factions. The main difference between \"griefing\" and \"warfare\" is really a matter of expectation in this context. There is one enormous difference between actual conflict and...

      I like to maneuver my space-meat-man suit a bit above or below the ship and spawn it there. Then its just a matter of hopping in, aiming the docking laser and firing.

      I slapped the new turrets on the Forte and modified the hull accordingly to accommodate that. I am a bit iffy on the upper turrets , but really like the quartets on the underside. I may do an R3 soon. It\'s available on the OP and looks like this:

      I don\'t have much time tonight, but I thought I\'d post up the Dirge Mk1-R3 for ya. It\'s got not-broken turrets, a very slight increase in shield capacity, a few cosmetic fixes and an armored Omnidrone. The OP has the link, but you can also go here. It\'s not a radical redesign by any...

      I Say! A Genteel Permutation of Spaceships! (FLYING TOP HAT)

      I am an idiot. YOU! YOU are one of my favorite designers. Zoogoo as well, but also you. Now, to find some water so I can wash down this foot I have lodged in my mouth.

      Fantastic. If you can arrange for this to be wall-paper sized (1920 x 1080 for me), I will negotiate suitable recompense with you. Because that\'s a sexy, sexy ship yard.

      If my child were to enslave me and take over the company, then she would have done me proud! That said! For those of you who want a quick fix for the turret problems on my ships, feel free to replace the now-broken three-shooters with the Quartets off of the Devi-class transport. It\'s...

      how do you build ships?

      the process is very straight-forward, at least for my VFW ships. Step 1) place core. Step 2) black hardened hull blocks to outline the top/bottom and left/right cross sections for the foreward hull Step 3) Build back and frame out the drive sections (usually pretty minimal as they may need to...

      battleship contest....

      is a whole LOT of work. And folks need a reason to even want to participate. Perhaps starting with a smaller ship would be a good idea? People are more likely to give it a shot if you\'re not asking for anything super-huge right from the get-go. Another idea to consider is the \"improv\"...
