Just going to bump this, because OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The structure tab functionality is absolutely cancerous when it comes to docked entities.
I decided to redo the systems in the Reaper corvette (the one that goes in the large hangars). Turns out that I entirely rebuilt the thing, I'll probably be done with the systems tomorrow :D
Those builds are all absolutely gorgeous. I've never seen anyone do wedge artwork like the one in the second image. As for the third: Splendid. The glowing pools did it for me :D
Don't forget that the plex doors benefit from 100% of the ship shields, and I added blast doors behind them for extra protection. So there's also a practical advantage to using plex doors.
Honestly though, I just can't be bothered with installing a rail door and dealing with all the issues that...
Yea, I think that's lag causing the rails to desync. Notice how the drones sort of micro-stutter on the rails. I wasn't expecting that to happen either at first... Looks cool though, so I won't complain xD
Thank you! Using the new blocks was well worth it, the new system is a lot more stable and less prone to derp than the old rack system (like drones getting stuck inside the ship because of collisions). I'm pretty sure that I could fly the ship and launch the drones at the same time without any...
If it's overheating it has to disappear eventually. The reason for that is that it causes a massive bloat in the server database otherwise.
On a now closed server, a guy kept shooting shops and killing/mining the trading guild ships that showed up (large custom ships, yes it's exploity). He...
Hmmm, interesting idea. Imo I think that the ability to salvage dead ship carcasses already fulfills that role rather well. The only problem is that they often despawn too fast, so maybe just being able to remotely stop the overheat (but not reboot them) by shooting them with a core beam or...
hehehe :D
The trick is to record them in video format and convert them to gif afterwards (I use an online converter since I don't have photoshop), that's how they look so smooth. Don't use the in-game tool, it's crap. :P
Update #39: New drone hangars
I'm still laughing like a mad scientist over this thing:
That's 110 drones. There's space for an other 110 on the other side of the ship, so 220 in total. I think that the awesomeness is pretty self-explanatory after watching the abve video. Here's more stuff...
