I live! Jokes aside, I just wanted to let y'all know that I'm taking a break from video games for an indefinite period of time (been 5 months already). So I have no idea if and when I'll start working on the ship again... However, I'd still like to finish it some day, perhaps once the game is...

Was the power penalty (for multiple weapon groups connected to one computer) removed? If not, then I STRONGLY recommend removing it since the issues it was meant to adress are non-existent with the new weapon systems, and it just prevents creative weapon construction (especially with the new...

Yep... I actually use a similar turret design on my titan, and since bubble size is on diminishing returns that probably means that I'm fucked :/ They should just make it so that bubble shields are shared between docked entities and main entity tbh. Then it wouldn't matter if you placed your...

Just curious about how the shield coverage works with turrets. If I understand correctly we can't place shields on the turret components, correct? I use a specific type of turret on some of my ship where the base rotates around the Z axis of the ship and the guns are mounted on pylons, like so...

Holy shit someone finally mentioned the reference hahahaha. Been making so many links to the mythology, like the "soul drones" :P

First detail yaaaay, added the blue line back and a bit of grey armor: It's finally starting to look like Charon again :')

lol, won't have that look once I add the wings back.

I'm done removing the frame, now I can move on to detailing: And yea I know it looks like crap atm, lack of detail does that :P

I AM GOING TO REMOVE THE ORANGE ARMOR! I WILL ALSO ADD DETAILS AND TURRETS! I already mentioned it in the update post guys, come on...

Spaghetti OP plz nerf Italy

You're right, it does look like something out of tron lol.

Just out of curiosity, what happens when you shoot the turrets? They seem pretty exposed, and are bulky enough that shots would hit. Wouldn't kill the ship but at least it'd disable it. Might be wrong though, I haven't played the game in a while...

It was a pain, and yea I hope that it pays off hahaha

Update 2: Basic hull Not much to say here, I decided to play the game and finish filling in the hull. Here's the result: (Just keep in mind that it looks like crap because there's 0 detailing, and also I had to lower settings cause I'm on my laptop) I still need to remove the orange frame...

Not gonna lie that's actually more horrible then a doomcube...

Just out of curiosity, does that mean destroying the capacitor (or whatever's generating the shield) completely remove protection from everything that was within the radius of that shield? Yes I'm alive...

Exactly! I had no idea what I was doing back when I started the original Charon. Only reason it looks somewhat decent is because I retrofitted it a billion times, the original was absolute rubbish in comparison. The new version will be entirely planned out from the start so it should be a lot...

Thrust really isn't an issue with ships that size unless you have really thick armor all over (5-10m+). You can also stick systems inside of the big armor plate that's sitting in the top/back of the ship. Besides, you won't have any amazing thrust/mass ratio with a ship that size so really...

My guess? Turn off backgrounds in-game, take screenshot, stick in image editor of choice, turn black levels up to 100% (or whatever that function is called I forget). That way you'll get a nice ship silhouette to work with :)

Update 1: New frame So I finally finished the new frame, for those that didn't read the last few pages I suggest that you do (if you want to know why I'm rebuilding the ship). Anyways, this was a lot of work to get everything perfect considering that I was essentially redesigning major areas of...
