These ships should be strong, probably the strongest kind(for their size) but they would also take a while to develop. They start out as a few tiles and a core which functions like a blob core. You grow your ship using food... idk how you get the food yet I hadn't thought about how it would be done, maybe getting other people to do it? Either way you can grow weapons and thrusters like a regular ship... its just blob without the minions as a space ship...

I like the idea of a ship that runs itself up but needs crew to fuel it. Imagine an ai core that could also build the ship to be larger. The goal of it would to help more in-shift designed larger ships pop up and add an ai with more control over its ship.

Generally what I'm thinking from this is it should take 250 mats to to make one block 500 maybe for 20 mm comparable guns and so on

#

Also The blob should have a way of making wires so they can power the lathes

#

So you should generally have a capital ship by 5ish hours

I was thinking plant ship. It starts with some small stuff and you have to grow plants and buy food to make it bigger. The ship would just have power throughout it.

I don’t mean literal blob more like blob gameplay

Hmm.

#

This is a really good concept by the way I love living ships

#

Perhaps instead of plant food it should grow off your power generation

#

So teg =

#

Capital ship

#

But your ship starts out small so you have to build up changing between all of the different generators

#

Before reaching optimum performance

#

it is pretty common to lose ships, so having a powerful ship in two hours wouldn't be unbalanced since someone could expedition grind for a capital ship in the same time (or shorter).

literally blob

Blob ship would be funny tho

#

Though it might need some hard limits so it doesn't become a round ending theat within an hour

#

Or make it so if they want to expand they need to integrate destroyed ships

I had an idea for something like this on another server. a space whale vessel made up of organic tiles and meaty system equivelents(blastdoors that open like whale teeth, conveyorbelt tongue leads to biomass-reclaimer stomach, ion-conductive spacelungs or an infinte energy heart, all controlled by an "ai" ghostrole giant meaty brain

#

pretty much the whale has nightvision binoculars, radar and can follow suit sensors too. it's only goal is to find spaced bodies or debris and eat em

These ships should be strong, probably the strongest kind(for their size)
maybe instead have them easily get large but weak-ish and cheap per-tile

#

and regeneration

agile marsh
#

imagine

#

you fly up to wreck and it tries to eat you

Like eat human stuff

#

And shit

#

I was thinking of blob from 13

#

Maybe have it replace thenuh

#

Chimeras

#

Where it can produce ghost controlled crew it creates

#

Cause I don't think anyone in their right mind would want to work/live in a meat ship

#

Plant ship 😢

craggy ibex
#

Plants need co2 to grow and live no?

torpid hedge
#

there are space carps in this game...

#

and diona who can use their lungs to survive in outer space without co2

craggy ibex
#

Space Carp ship

craggy ibex
#

Wtf

torpid hedge
#

yeah pretty much everyone can use them...

craggy ibex
#

Ok nevermind but uh

#

Blob ship tho

#

We need other antagonist other than rogues

someone made a post about blob ships, I assume after reading this one
