    Eternal Vigilance Shipyards

    Welcome to the Shipyards of Eternal Vigilance.
    Eternal Vigilance was formed on the foundations of Knowledge and Logic. For centuries Vigilance has remained in the galactic shadows, always watching yet taking a course of non-interference in universal events. Recently however, as the borders of known space are pushed ever outward, the Elder Watcher has chosen to bring Vigilance back into the Galaxy's spotlight.

    Starships

    Vigilance-Class Corvette
    (WIP)​
    The most common ship in the Vigilance Star Fleet, the Vigilance Class is a favourite of Commanders everywhere. Nearly all active officers and personnel have at one point served on these iconic vessels, with many Watcher-rank Officers operating customised versions as their personal flagships.

    Turrets

    Arrowhead AMS Mk I
    The compact Arrowhead AMS was created to fit the needs of a modern missile defence. A simple, easily maintained turret was deemed the best solution and the Arrowhead was rushed into service after a testing time of just 6 weeks.

    At that scale, you might need AMS turrets, but your main firepower is forward-firing. Forget good-looking big turrets, build some nice-looking AMS ones and you should be good. Also, not bad. Perhaps add some more details and more major elements to the hull, especially on top. The top looks kinda bland, but that'll work if you toss a couple AMS turrets on and then have the bridge and major detailing below the hull. I'd need MORE PICTURES (HINT, HINT, HIIIINNTTT) to tell. But hey, interesting basic shape. Looks like a flying rocket launcher, almost.
    So that should be your main weapon - missiles!

    Heh. I've built a small twin AMS, and they'll be retractable. I'll try and get more pics up later today!

    And thanks heaps by the way!

    That turret coming out and then going back in is super cool looking! But what happens when it turns off the initial axis?

    Glad you like it! I make sure to deactivate and reset all turrets before retracting ;)

    Is there a key or a menu that does that?! There is so much in starmade that doesn't have a definitive directory to look through for those things :/

    In the Entity structure menu. You can activate and deactivate Turrets, and reset their orientation.

    Find "Rail System Collective" in the opened box. Click on it. Find necessary button. Do NOT click "Undock All".

    Update:

    Built some Interior stuff. Moved the Core. Found out I'd moved it to the wrong spot. Moved it again.

    Interior Logic Control - All my interior logic stuff is controlled from here. (RP purposes, but the activation module locks down all logic control when off)



    And the logic block behind it




    Hallways





    Crew Quarters - Going for a minimum two person crew





    And finally the USD and Airlock - Both Sections are sealed off by rail doors that automatically close the other door before opening
