      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      A thunderstorm made me unable to provide you with an update yesterday, but I did make some good progress on the main body. The last bit of useable space has been filled with the only thing that made sense on a carrier: more docks! A small hangar has been added to each side of the main body...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Mostly been placing more shields today since I thought I was too tired to do anything more creative today, but I might have come up with an idea on what to fill the last major space in the main body with. I\'m going to be a bit of a tease and do some trials first before I tell you what it...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      So, this weekend has been the finals of the alliance tournaments in a certain other internet spaceship game wich has kept me rather distracted from the carrier. This doesn\'t mean there hasn\'t been any progress made however. I did come up with a decent design for a small shield generator...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Not that much progress today. The factory idea didn\'t really work since you can\'t mount factory inputs on ships. So instead I turned my attention to ways of further improving the defenses and found two good spots on each wing for some additional small turrets, bringing up the total count to...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Finished most of the work on the canteen and as you can guess by the subject it ended up looking a bit different than I first imagined it. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzBwd48DUtNleXAtWEU3UlMyems/edit?usp=sharing https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzBwd48DUtNlMXBZWGZPYTB5ZnM/edit?usp=sharing...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      I\'m very sure there will be non-block structures in the end (such as interactive basic furniture and the like) but since the game is in an alpha state (although a public one) I doubt we\'ll see any of those items anytime soon as they ain\'t that vital to the game at this stage. There are a few...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      The layout for the medical bay is complete, only needs a few finishing touches and it shoud be good enough. It\'s not an extremely large area containing only eleven beds, one of them in an isolation chamber, and thirteen intensive care pods on a seperate floor. Bed area...

      No, I don\'t mind at all =) Feel free to copy any design elements you find interesting in this project. I only wish to be credited if someone decides to copy a larger feature such as reactor, fighter bay or lab. Other than that I\'m just happy you\'ve found something interesting and useful...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      More walkways today and quite a few new stairs to allow easier access to the different floors in the main body. I\'ve also created even more crew compartments in the neck area of the ship filling it up nicely and raising the total number to about 36. The plan is to have a compartment for each...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Today I\'ve mostly adjusted various small things. I\'ve added another floor to the captains quarters, two new walkways connecting the front section with the main body and four new crew compartments. Nothing worth showing really. Here\'s a quick list on rooms I plan on adding: - Medical deck -...

      I\'ve returned from my little vacation and have made some more progress on the ship. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzBwd48DUtNlZ1VqZG9RaC01bTg/edit?usp=sharing This is a first view from the onboard laboratory, but due to the large amount of glass the screenshots become rather lousy. The plan...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      I spent some time on the reactor today and while thinking of a design I remembered that I saw someone write a short story about building ships around the captured remains of collapsed/condensed stars. But why capture a star when you can create one on your own? Mankind are doing some heavy...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      There haven\'t been too much work done on the carrier today. The comission work I took on turned out to take a bit longer than expected due various reasons. I\'ve redone a few ramps in the main body to create shortcuts between the sides of ship instead of forcing players to either walk around...

      Did some improvement on the frigate dock today: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzBwd48DUtNlUGlqYndUVGN2QVE/edit?usp=sharing By accident I discovered that overlapping docking areas doesn\'t interfere with eachother so I decided to make the large space more useful. The large room now contains...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      As the subject says, that\'s what this day has mostly been about. The hangar doors to the fighter bay and the small shuttle dock are now in place. There\'s also a framework of plex doors covering the frigate bay. Along the sides of the entry to the frigate dock I\'ve created six small turret...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Today I\'ve created the last turret mounts on the front section and liked all the features in there together with walk ways. The paths take quite some time to design since I want the ship to be easy to navigate and yet feel interesting to explore and walk around in. At the back on the main body...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      When I started the work today I set out to create some quick framework for a mark two of the carrier with the core and command bridge in a new position, but after two or three hours I took another good look at the \'old\' carrier again and realised that it doesn\'t look too bad. It actually...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Not much progress today. Still pondering about the command bridge and I\'m starting to think that building a mark two version with the bridge in a new position might be the easiest way out of it. Did take the time to do a quick piece of comission work though, something I might do again in the...

      Craver Shipyards - Current project: Carrier. Daily updates!

      Tried to fix the misbehaving frigate today, it\'s the turrets that keep causing me problems as only one of each kind of turret seem to be properly saved as an entity of the ship.. I did also go over the engine room since the setup there was far less than optimal. Managed to more than strengthen...
