... MAGIC!!

Holy shit, Ref...
That hangar is brilliant, and the exterior is masterful. Continue to be great.

Hallway detail shots and some WIP exterior detail shots.

Nice! Also does anyone else look at the size of those hallways and think the ship would make a great astronaut map?

 

[refirendum]

there's lots of interior i've still gotta do, but first on list to do, finish the hangar shaping and docking, then detail pieces and logic. hangar access stairs are still kind of idk right now. grav-elevator or stairs.... hmmmmm. stairs take up more space but look nicer... but elevators are easier to make... should i have an observation deck up there for the hangar area? choices choices.

 

[ltmauve]

Actually, you could try making a spiral staircase. Those would take up a bit more room than a standard grav tube, but I'm not sure if they would look better. BUt you could also include a grave tube down the center of the spiral stairs.

Yes! Make it a glass grav tube! That would actually be epic!!!

 

[refirendum]

fine i'll do it. maybe.

Love the detailing in the floor. Great work!

 

[refirendum]

by the way, the half-size docks already have logic lighting installed. green for space open, and red for space taken.

 

[refirendum]

wing shaping! yay!

 

[kupu]

Oh damn.... Thats all kinds of awesome.

 

[ltmauve]

Wait, did you put down the shield blocks first?

 

[refirendum]

shieldblocks first for core shape, then armor over the top for additional shape and thickness/structure (including some armor spars inside the wing to allow for AOE armor bonuses)

 

[TrainDodger]

That hangar deck. Wow.

 

[Thalanor]

A couple of SCF hangar engineers can be seen, looking at above awesomeness, taking notes and compiling a list of things to steal inspirations.

 

[Drybreeze]

Very interested to see the catapult runways finished.

 

[Spartan-089]

Wow, I'm not if it was stated but what what are the current dimensions on that thing, are there any servers that can handle a capital ship like that? Its an impressive build so far nonetheless.

Updates from beyond the end of the world:

The Hyacinth is still being built. was only waiting for the rail system to be adequate for my ideas. where i'm putting the rails, that's a mystery that even i have yet to solve.

by the way, i've so far got warping balanced in and partially optimized (finishing optimization comes after the rest of the ship is finished)

I will be extending the hangar area as well.
