Alright lets kick this new update off with new pirate and traders designs and new shop designs. The winners will be forever immortalized on NASS Main (and other servers as well). Lets get a good range of pirate ships from fighters to battleships.
Top picks will get Humble Bundles (9 steam games - Alpha Protocol, Company of Heroes, Rome: Total War, Rath of the Dead Rabbit, Typing of the Dead: Overkill, Binary Domain, Renegade Ops, Classic Sega Games, Mediecal Total War 2 )
To prepare a ship for the competition - Take a picture of your ship with F6 then get into it and type /save to be sure its blueprint is up to date. Then start the launcher, hit start game, go to tools at the top of Starmade Connection Setup, select Open Ship Catalog Manager, find your ship and hit export. The ship file yourshipname.sment will appear in StarMade/blueprints/exported. Post the picture and a link to the ship on this thread.
To prepare a shop for the competition - Find an updated shop with a NPC. Using the M key build a space station around the existing shop giving a pathway to the NPC. Be sure to take a picture of the shop with F6 and then use the /export_sector (ie: /export_sector 2 2 2 stationname). You may need to use /force_save if the sector has not autosaved to the database. The sector will appear in StarMade/sector-export/yourstationname.smsec. Post the picture and a link to the shop on this thread.
Clarifications
1) It must be a ship you created
2) Turrets are allowed but discouraged due to ongoing issues with them (make sure they work and look right with AI before submitting them)
3) The ships will be available for ALL servers not just NASS. This project is to encourage a lot of submissions to benefit the whole community
4) All weapon types are permitted
5) There are no hard and fast rules about ships sizes. I would suggest nothing over about 200 Meters due to issues with spawning and the lack of graphics hardware many people are playing with
6) Winners will be decided by a community vote in a future post after sufficient entries are received
