    Not yet - It's a ship, not a station. I'll probably see if I can get it up on a server somewhere and possibly get some others to help work on it. I've got power and shields all set - but it's a pretty big station and there's a lot of internals - deck, control stations, etc - to hash out. I'll fire up a thread if I can get it somewhere everyone can access.

    I'm not sure if you want it to be a station but there seems to be a way to change a ship into a station. Check this post http://starmadedock.net/threads/changing-ships-to-stations.2123/ Haven't tested it out myself but it seems to work.

    That's a very nice shape. I would smooth out the edges of the circle like constructions, will look great when you use tetra/heptas like in this picture. http://i.imgur.com/q9QBCjZ.jpg

    On a side note: I have a question about pirate stations, are we allowed to dock small ships on them (My idea is to equip it with 4 automated escape pods, simple logic)?

    Thanks! I was initially going to round it out but thought it might wind up looking rather strange simply because its such a long arc compared to the width of the arc, but I'll see how that turns out.

    As for docked ships, I don't know, it doesn't say anything about it in the rules. I'd think it wouldn't be too hard, but I don't know how the AI handles that sort of thing. Maybe Calbiri could answer that one.

    dont give up so easily :) ,my station was a pile of first class dirt,it was absolute mud :p .. before i started adding more random pipes,simple boxes with hazard stripes,lights,windows,some antenas,etc.
    problem with your station,and many others,is the main box shape,chamfer those corners,cut off some shapes from that box,and as always,randomness is the beauty of nature ,your station will be as good as all others mate

    Do you see the ironies?

    An inexperienced said his work looks boring, then another want to be helpful saying randomness is the key and than this picture!

    I would say that not-pure-flat walls, colors or diversity are the key.

    A station needs RP features - I just hope this (btw really good looking) station does not use too many expensive blocks? *evil looking*

    Maybe more wedges in nice stations will even lead to better looking ships (+1 liked).

    This is my pirate station entry prototype. It still needs turrets added. Basically it consists of three rings at 90 degree angles and 6 beams that go to a central diamond shaped control center. It's supposed to be a small base measuring 293x293x293

    Any feedback is appreciated.

    I like the "gyroscope"-rings, but I am not that happy with how sharp and small the inner part looks.

    Also: pure red may look good on the outside, but even if pirates like red, they will for sure not see only red.
    (except they are infected by some brain-virus ;), or they are StarTrek:Klingons?)

    I like the Y-hallway and that you two build in a few plants.

    I think I like the uniqueness more than I dislike the sharp look.

    Submitted for your consideration: My (very nearly) complete trade guild station: http://starmadedock.net/content/trade-guild-station.888/

    All it lacks is crafting units on the factory floor. I'll hold off on those until the end of the contest. I figure the crafting system will probably be refined over the next few weeks.View attachment 2872 View attachment 2873 View attachment 2874 View attachment 2875 View attachment 2876 View attachment 2877 View attachment 2878 View attachment 2879 View attachment 2880 View attachment 2881

    Where were you able to find the model of the Isanth Zero? I've been looking for one so I could size hangars.
    Oh, and awesome station, by the way!

    Copy the folders from the \blueprints-default\ folder into the \blueprints\ folder. For some reason the new Isanths wouldn't work at all for me until I put them here.

    Do what K10wN said. Also, if you don't know they are quite a bit bigger than the regular isanth. Make sure you give yourself lots of room.
