I've stumbled into similar problems before. AKA my shipyard was completely (Actually, still is) dysfunctional as it can get. If you spawn two of the same blueprint (Without modifying the originally produced vessel) in a shipyard, by constructing one vessel, moving it, and then loading the...

Don't get too confusing, include spaces where nothing's happening (Blank faces or walls) to give eyes a spot to rest, instead of being overloaded by details.

Awesome. Really, we need in-core design items so that a ship, once built, can be repaired to the design rather than you digging up the design to repair it to. That said, this shouldn't be allowed for people who do not own the original blueprint/design. This would give royalties to the people...

Well, still give us the option for the entity structure command. Then logic up your emergency lights, trigger the entity command, and then trigger the logic.

Really? What is this, a ship every 15 minutes? Impressive. Really impressive. Do you mean you want another class so no two ships share a class?....hmmm....maybe call one of the two a gunship? Bump one up to destroyer or frigate or something? (I'm a naval warfare/history guy, so I use naval...

Yeah, it matches theme pretty well. Match color schemes if you can, more important are design themes, and there are some obvious commonalities of design between the two. A good job yet again.

Our core is on the bridge, easily accessible, yet still defensible in the event of boarders. That said, it's poorly armored, in order to stay true to the original's mobility...and original purpose (Diplomatic transport/courier)

Yes, but both can coexist if you simply say that SM does NOT obey the basic laws of physics. Both are true, because otherwise your character would be ridiculously oversize or everything else undersized. The simplest solution is to simply accept that in SM, planets and stars form at lower block...

YES! Especially after building large ships. The amount of wasted time to go back to EVERY LIGHT ON THE SHIP and connect to logic is enormous.

All you really have to do to avoid chaindrives is to follow keptick's suggestion- make a jump shuttle/cargo vessel with a positively huge jumpdrive and backup JD, and lots of cargo space, to carry around a disassembled fleet with you and set it up wherever you end up. Assuming you even want the...

Excellent. Simply excellent. I really like the use of green. I especially agree with the "Like enough to post a picture"....I've got the same problem.

StarWars and I have a Frigate that desperately needs a revisit for its side turrets (Man are they terrible, we did them before discovering how to use slabs). Ours is bigger and much less decorated than yours. It's plain white, grey, and red. Mostly. It's 1:1 scale, so 140 meters long and a...

The biggest issue of removing cores from these things has already been pointed out to me---the collision checks that cause lag don't go away. Simply removing the core won't stop collisions. Perhaps if the game was set up to require you to "configure" turrets, during which the game lags to a...

I know it, but it was still a fun random idea to have. Oh, and Valck, that's not impossible at SM's scales. Though it requires more energy than a lot of blocks. The assumption about gravity on a ship without control over gravity (No gravity modules) isn't entirely wrong. It would probably, at...

Use a carrier to dock them to, collect the cargo into the carrier, dock the carrier yourself, use the rail transfer system to move cargo from your carrier to station storage, done.

Hey, the Harry Potter elevators would work (Reach high speed) if you only have one destination in mind, and one way to get there. (Bottom floor, falling REALLY fast after undocking the elevator car). But yeah, a trolley/hoversled method would be great. I'll probably build one on any larger...

So, it's one-third scale? What're its dimensions? Pretty impressive. Even though I've never watched Star Trek.

Hmmm....random idea, but what if gravity helped limit ships? Large enough objects are naturally compressed into a spherical shape, so perhaps armor and structure HP debuffs (Extreme debuffs) for super-massive vessels, because they're own gravity would fight the shape and structure of the ship.

Perhaps some sort of firing delay on certain weapons, as if certain combinations are slow to fire, yet more powerful. Just thinking on feel. The idea being that if you make a nuke, it will take some time to actually fire. Make some combination of cannon and secondary/tertiary, and it's a...

Function of the mass. That's what gravity is anyway: A function of the mass AND radius that is acting upon a body.
