[rugged jolt]

Very cool!

Which piece?

What's fun is you can always expand the scaffolds out to the side and throw on more containers for a bulkier look

So it can very easily change depending on the "job"

[fallow canopy]

Yeah, I did try and keep some jutting out but it does look quite nice with the thinner profile

I'll probably keep changing the amount as I play

[distant sleet]

the parts that mesh the big kinostream thrusters to the rest of the ship

[gloomy nebula]

I am thinking of making a spreadsheet of corvette parts so I can track what I have and how many I have.

Unless someone’s made something like that already.

[eager trail]

I'm gonna be honest, the idea of corvettes is cool and all

but as of right now I can't really see any use for them that would make me want to use them over a regular starship

And everything my starship can't do, like planetary probing or foundries, can already be done by my freighter

Which, when fully upgraded, I can summon from literally anywhere

[gloomy nebula]

I am kind of in the same boat. My starship can do most anything I want in combination with my freighter. And I can seamlessly access the freighter’s inventory too.

[noble storm]

What I do like about corvettes is parking in the air and using my scanner

[gloomy nebula]

One potential use I see is for Expeditions, if you are in the habit of copying your main save ship over to your Expedition. It’s like having a ready-made base

There are also some uses for multiplayer and taking other players to different places but I at least don’t find this particularly compelling.

[distant sleet]

as someone who has never built a real base I like corvettes cause it lets me do my homeless camper van fantasy in space

[gloomy nebula]

I am probably going to wait on committing to a corvette until all the parts Hello Games lists on their guide are available.

[noble storm]

Question if you put the landing gear above some ship parts do those go underground when you land?

[teal river]

My best Build, the ever best, Units Received

[noble storm]

How?! And I love it

[mellow cove]

How are people making full on circular saucer ships?!

[teal river]

A small trick xd

The best in anomaly, hours of hard work

[dim imp]

This, I suck at base building.

[rugged jolt]

Firebox fairing

[rugged jolt]

Idk but I must find out

[remote schooner]

Any improvement ideas?

[wraith quiver]

chonkerino.

[daring depot]

just finished my first proper corvette build, what do you think??

[proud vessel]

Opinion?

[wraith quiver]

love that your build is offset

[livid sphinx]

I like the top angle

[wraith quiver]

that blue n gold looks real good

[livid sphinx]

Im so sick of the builder right now

[proud vessel]

rly? thanks

[proud vessel]

all the day desing xD

[gloomy nebula]

I did it. I made a spreadsheet of parts and how many of each part I want.

[livid sphinx]

I really wanted to love my dragon fly but its such a pain placing the grass

[proud vessel]

leviathan? xd

[gloomy nebula]

I still have to update it with the number of each part I have and then I can also figure out what I have to trade. But the most difficult part is done.

[proud vessel]

is a very crazy desing

[gloomy nebula]

I am thinking of putting the main body of the ship on structural supports that attach to the landing gear. Then I will need an underslung hab or walkway for the landing bay/access. But it will also mean that I can attach stuff underneath the ship!

[proud vessel]

i think the corvette parts must be extended to 120 because the propulsion system is the last added and we desing and when want to add that... oh shit surprise u has exceed the limit xD

[azure edge]

Any recommendations for how to hide the hab part?

(Yes I did take inspiration from that one guy who made that one corvette and this is in-production

[hardy badge]

@azure edge Be civil. And on topic. If you do want to avoid quarantines.

[hardy badge]

In other words, none of this.

[azure edge]

Yeah, alright, do you have any recommendations for what to do with this part of my corvette that's sticking out?
I really don't like the little hab corner
-# you will not get me, dark one, i will not fall to your whims

[ripe trench]

[azure edge]

Like I like this wing thing or whatever, and wouldn't mind sticking it back by one, but the hab's back is like really ugly

[lime hound]

seems like any time i end or exit multiplayer my corvette's modules get moved around?

[pseudo forge]

You could add in some aesthetic pieces. Maybe hull ducting, but that would make ship longer to place another piece there before arcadia cowling.

[sly sparrow]

I can barely make out what your corvette is on this image

Do you have a better one

[tulip dagger]

Do I need a Cargo link on my Corvette or is that aesthetic?

[scenic hamlet]

Anyone think they can supply me with everything I need for a corvette? I have an idea

[tulip dagger]

can buy the basic parts at a space station then dig up the rest on a planet or trade for parts you do wnat

[scenic hamlet]

I need some parts yesh

[tulip dagger]

Look for Salvaged scrap planets when you scan then

them

[scenic hamlet]

What does salvaged scrap even give me

[stark harness]

The ship parts

[wraith quiver]

the very parts youre asking for lmao

[tulip dagger]

Itll give you Corvette parts, and ancient objects to see

sell

Im really trying to be helpful. lol

[scenic hamlet]

I thought it was just scrap

Mb

[tulip dagger]

No its new, theyre yellow wifi looking icons

similar to the grey icons, underground

[scenic hamlet]

I see well thank you

[tulip dagger]

Happy Hunting. I've had luck using an exo craft going from one location to the next.

[scenic hamlet]

That was my plan as well

[stark harness]

I use the mech with some jump upgrades

[wraith quiver]

yeah exocraft would be best bet

[scenic hamlet]

So some move faster?

[wraith quiver]

yeah you can upgrade them to move faster. i think the one that looks like a funky two wheeler might be the fastest but idk

chonker done.

[pseudo forge]

Habs give you 3 cargo slots if you have enough habs no cargo pieces are needed to give your ship more cargo room. So it can be for looks or used for actual cargo space depending on your build.

[tulip dagger]

Yes, the funky two wheeler seems to be fastest. then you can get modules to modify them and upgrade their engines for more speed

[tulip dagger]

thank you

[tulip dagger]

Lovely chonker

[wraith quiver]

thanks bud

[pseudo forge]

There should be a disclaimer on bottom of piece details when you hover on it. There is a disclaimer that will tell you whether you will get a bonus or not from a piece.

[tulip dagger]

Ah, yeah the one that I got about too many engines I imagine

[pseudo forge]

bingo

[slow harbor]

Very fun fact about anything placeable that you can pick up with middle mouse button:

If you try to pick it up with MMB, it toggles all your ramps on the ship to open/close. You can use stable glitches as remote control for ramps/landing bays.

[pseudo forge]

upto nine engines will give trails any more than that and some won't ave trails. Only 3 I believe give bonus. Bonuses change as you add parts so keep checking their bonus values.

[tulip dagger]

good info, thnak you

[pseudo forge]

Despite some believe you can get bonuses from each reactors and up to 3 of each kind all give bonus. Well I havent triewd since latest patch.

[slow harbor]

all this is true but all cockpits are also medusa reactors

[tulip dagger]

I am terrible at Corvette building

[pseudo forge]

Oh... I knew the cockpit acted as one reactor didn't know it was the medusa

Glitch building opens up way more capabilities and not really a big todo to build this way, a bit more time consuming as you adjust parts positions.

For me its trial and error. I build till I like the way it looks. I don't start with solid plan in mind. General shape and try to build to it, and more often then not I change directions half way through as I find something that I think looks cooler.

[tulip dagger]

Makes sense

[wraith quiver]

i do the same. look up some idea pics for inspiration sometimes

[tulip dagger]

I think I have a hard time translating shapes into the blocks we are given and making not making a box

[stark harness]

Its also not a bad idea to remix an existing design

[fervent mist]

Anything worth while trading for for the advanced modules?

[pseudo forge]

Really want away to be able to undo things in building. Also really want a way to save build designs.

Most of the really cool pieces are the advanced ones, so imo yes most of the parts are worht trading for. However you can grind them by just scavenging.

[fervent mist]

So high energy sheild would be best with ceto class reactor

[pliant sparrow]

Lemme see yalls builds

[pseudo forge]

you want me to get int trouoble for spamming pics

lol as if on que

[wraith quiver]

gunter on yo ass

[stark harness]

Gunter watching us like a hawk. 1984 up in here 😔

[pliant sparrow]

If you're just photodumping you'll get in trouble

but in this context we're gonna talk about it

so is ok

[pseudo forge]

yep.

My first build with glitch building.

And this little cute bugger opens from front and back like M2 or c2 in Star citizen

[tulip dagger]

Any problem using a short range teleporter in my corvette standing still or underway?

[slow harbor]

it's not supposed to work

[pseudo forge]

doubled sided entryways

[pliant sparrow]

interesting

this has been my first corvette build using mostly glitchbuilding

[slow harbor]

Idk why but green is just superior

[tulip dagger]

Nice ships

[pseudo forge]

I just learned about glitch building and still exploring the limits and abilities of pieces.

[slow harbor]

It makes stuff look cooler

[tulip dagger]

I need to learn. I’m struggling.

[pseudo forge]

Green is my favorite color. 2% of humans have green eyes, me included.

[zinc knoll]

Has HG said when a next patch will be?

[abstract saffron]

bro added a fun fact

[zinc knoll]

Need to have that constant tech shuffling be patched out.

[slow harbor]

the inner core of this ship is 3x2 walkways.

it fits 5 reactors, 3 shields and gun mount

this is the power of glitch building

XD

[pseudo forge]

I like it. Gives a bit of klingon warbird vibe imo

[elder sparrow]

Anyone have tips on how to build this im mostly having trouble with the scale and circled areas

[pliant sparrow]

this is my least favorite milano tbh

[slow harbor]

if you are a bit insane you could try making the circles out of base pieces

otherwise idk how you would make them

[elder sparrow]

Yea but everyone is doing milano so I gotta be different lmao

[tulip dagger]

the square fits in the square hole

[elder sparrow]

I tried that it looked like ahh. I might have to do some offset trickery or something

[slow harbor]

yeah i may be guilty of being a bit inspired by that look but nothing direct

Ambassador cockpit just forces me to make overhang cos it just fits it

[elder sparrow]

I wish there were more round pieces

Maybe I could do something with fuel covers

anyway heres my mini star destroyer

[pseudo forge]

I like to try and tuck my cockpit in. uhhh, thats not right.... Put them like this not out front

[wraith quiver]

yeah depending on build i just hide mine at this point but that looks very good

[pseudo forge]

That SD is a beautE!!!

[sudden compass]

Is there somewhere I can find a visual comparison of the different hab modules?

[pseudo forge]

I have intentions to make one of my own eventually..

[tulip dagger]

If im using infraknife on my Vette, should I use the photon or lasers?

[pseudo forge]

Hell of a job. How long did take to make?

[slow harbor]

i use lasers and photon because i like my corvette intact as it is(shield siphon)

[stark harness]

Yeeeee
Shield siphon is a great

[elder sparrow]

Me?

[slow harbor]

it makes you feel invincible whereas infraknives makes you feel berserk

[pseudo forge]

yeah

[elder sparrow]

Around an hour 30

[tulip dagger]

Im ignorant about shield siphon, but good to know it exists. Should I ditch the infraknife?

[slow harbor]

too bad we can't take off photon cannon from corvettes

If we could take off photon cannon i'd use infra and beams

for both siphon and instakills

[fervent mist]

Hey anyone know an easy way to upgrade the corvette class without shelling 10,000 nanites?

[heavy sparrow]

Does the Medi pod do anything?

[tulip dagger]

"Not yet" I was told

[slow harbor]

farm nanites

[heavy sparrow]

Ah okay

[slow harbor]

its the only way

[heavy sparrow]

Thought I just couldn’t get it to work lol

[slow harbor]

and its not 10000 its 85k

so be sure of what you are upgrading

[strange horizon]

All of my tech slots are filled up by parts I used in making my corvette. Is there a way to get more slots so I can install the improved hyperdrives?

[abstract saffron]

can you wire glitch on corvettes?

whenevr i try it switches to a part i didnt want ot place

[slow harbor]

Disassemble most of the valid corvette parts, install ALL your tech, assemble ship again

[rugged jolt]

I wish we had a paintbrush to paint our ships. Feel like this would look good with a red stripe down the middle of the longer side

[slow harbor]

Boom, slots

[strange horizon]

Ok good to know. Will be tedious, but thanks.

[gentle turtle]

Do the short range teleporters work in corvettes?

I can place them, but I can't seem to attach the cable to anything

[abstract saffron]

they dont work

[gentle turtle]

Dang, thanks for the quick response! Saved me some wasted minutes

[abstract saffron]

does this kinda look like the ironclad from star citizen or am i way off base?

[flat helm]

Any tips for making interior designs look more polished and less clunky?

[strange horizon]

Ambassador Habs. At least for storage racks. The storage racks take up a lot less space in ambassador habs.

[hallow verge]

Hmmm.... guys do you have any tips for making a small ship? Like a really small, cozy but cool one :>

[wraith quiver]

aside from obviously using the offset glitches, id just say freeflow it til you find something you like

[tulip dagger]

creative

[sleek oasis]

@rugged jolt I gave up 😔

[rugged jolt]

What happened?

Show me what you have so far

[sleek oasis]

It's too complicated 😭

And I'm shit at building

[stark harness]

We really need more vertically oriented pieces.
Its hard to decorate multilevel ships

[sleek oasis]

This, or rotate parts vertically

[stark harness]

Not all of them can be rotated vertically :(

In fact a lot of them

[sleek oasis]

All of them should be able to rotate fully no matter the position on both x and y axis

Otherwise it makes it limited

[rugged jolt]

show what you got

[tulip dagger]

Do the stations give me worst deals the more I trade parts?

[sleek oasis]

I started building something else instead, so don't have anything to show lol

[rugged jolt]

😭

[sleek oasis]

Yea I stopped a while ago, no idea on how to do the back and the middle

[limpid karma]

has anyone else made construction equipment

[sleek oasis]

Of the consular

[limpid karma]

i want to meet you if you have

we can take screenshots together

[mystic dust]

Can I put my corvette parts in the cashe and they'll be available at any space station

[sleek oasis]

Yea, it'd be pretty dumb if they were linked to a single space station

[rugged jolt]

What I did was lots of offset building

[mystic dust]

Awesome thanks. Gotta save space on the expedition

[rugged jolt]

I made a transport ship if that counts?

[limpid karma]

?

[rugged jolt]

I've seen salvage barges

[sleek oasis]

I've made something different than the consular but I'm unsure about it, like I didn't have any plans or anything in my head, just randomly pieced it together

[stark harness]

Woah!
What are those things on the side of the containers

[limpid karma]

this is an awesome idea

[rugged jolt]

on teh side? The scaffolding?

[stark harness]

Yeeeee

No

Are those even habs????

[rugged jolt]

nope

a scaffolding type piece

[stark harness]

Oooooooh

[rugged jolt]

forget what they are called

[stark harness]

Thats cool!

[rugged jolt]

they are more circular though so they don't have such a blocky incomplete look

[wraith quiver]

thrusters fit flush on those

[rugged jolt]

I actually made it using the base of this ship

Which started as this 😂

[rugged jolt]

You should share

[limpid karma]

i think a lot of ships people make are basically the same ships

people tend towards this triangular shape

[rugged jolt]

Hm really?

Wdym

[stark harness]

Heres the base of mine
Im gonna decorate it tonight.

That front long bit is gonna be a deck, and im using the top The Roach.

[rugged jolt]

Nice!

Would look pretty cool with a top deck

[sleek oasis]

so far, unsure about some parts, rn been thinking about the engines/rockets mainly

[limpid karma]

if you just scroll through the media tab here youll see what i mean

[stark harness]

Looooove top decks. Its so great for utility and just getting great shots

[rugged jolt]

Throw some sails on there for a great vibe!

[limpid karma]

we like weird stuff

[rugged jolt]

Do you know how to do offset building?

[sleek oasis]

yea

the like, wings things in the middle are off set down

[strange horizon]

It makes sense. It looks good and it makes it so the habs aren’t awkward to move through

[limpid karma]

idk if thats offset bro

thats something else

[stark harness]

I wish the bigger engines had thicker trails

[limpid karma]

i agree

#nms-showcase-corvettes is where to show off your corvette »

[strange horizon]

It does look a little weird

[limpid karma]

especially the square ones

[stark harness]

I knew i wasnt the only one

[rugged jolt]

I would offset the engines so they aren't clipping

[strange horizon]

What I honestly think is the main weirdness to me is that the engine itself is a a deep void. If the trail is small that’s one thing, but for the engine to be this black abyss is just odd.

[pliant sparrow]

huh?

[rugged jolt]

My guess its our natural inclination to build stuff that looks aerodynamic

and also the fact that half the pieces lead to more angular styles

[sleek oasis]

they're not final, im probably gonna remake the ones I use on my razor crest

[limpid karma]

yeah but i want to see creativity despite our limitations

anyone can make a triangle

[slow harbor]

creativity within the triangle is also creativity

[stark harness]

Its not finished yet 😛

[limpid karma]

no offense to the people making them but theyre not unique

[strange horizon]

I plan to make a circular design and then an offset one. I’ll just have to farm parts to do it.

[limpid karma]

i want to know

[sleek oasis]

also rn im checking to see if the sides are better in a different order (right side)

[slow harbor]

mine ships technically also fits into a triangle, so what

[limpid karma]

can i make a ball

[strange horizon]

The bot wont actually get anyone in trouble for dropping pictures in here right?

[limpid karma]

probably not

[slow harbor]

I have made an ellipse, ball doesnt seem that doable

[limpid karma]

unlucky

[rugged jolt]

are these good for "not triangles" ?

[sleek oasis]

the bot is gonna kill you

[limpid karma]

ive seen your ships before

i like the space station one

[strange horizon]

Real

[slow harbor]

yeah like, there is a lot of non triangles

[slow harbor]

and i also build in normal so

[strange horizon]

Like mines definitely at guilt of the triangle thing

[slow harbor]

im stuck with the stuff i actually have

[rugged jolt]

oh okay lol

[limpid karma]

i havent made anything properly creative yet

ive just been making replicas

[rugged jolt]

Its pretty hard to make non triangle stuff look good imo

[limpid karma]

thats true

[rugged jolt]

Because in order to make something less angular you have to use a lot of the same parts

[slow harbor]

i mean, reverse triangle is also a vibe

[nimble stirrup]

as long as you aren't photo-dumping, it's fine

if the photos are related to the discussion

[slow harbor]

but its still kinda triangle

[limpid karma]

you cant just make a weird ship

[lament abyss]

It looks like you're showing off your cool corvette creation! We love that, however...

This is the corvette discussions channel. Per pinned channel rules, we do not allow corvette image dumps here. Those are more fit for 👉 #nms-showcase-corvettes !

Shared by: art3mis_7129

[limpid karma]

you have to make a purpose for your ship

[rugged jolt]

ah yes elgnairt are pretty cool

[limpid karma]

your ship has to do something

if its gonna be weird

[strange horizon]

Another big thing is you cannot rotate cockpits.

I plan to make the big ol donut kinda one, but I also want to make a flying saucer style design.

[limpid karma]

i found you can place them backwards on backwards habs

i dont know if itll be weird

will it let you fly it backwards

[rugged jolt]

One of the coolest I saw was a salvage Tug type of ship

[limpid karma]

i saw that one too

just a bunch of junk on a trailer

[rugged jolt]

The detail was so good

[limpid karma]

a good ship has to tell a story

[strange horizon]

That’s a very good tip

A fun thing I like to do is use the grill heater to misplace parts. It’s how I did my weird cargo/shield combo on the top of the bridge on my corvette.

[limpid karma]

i used the grill here so my gun would be upsidedown

[slow harbor]

I mean, my CMS Nuisance/Verdant Venture has literal in-game lore and story that is written in stone and data.

It doesnt get any more purposeful than that,

[limpid karma]

its a replica of a marauder bomber from 40k

[strange horizon]

Ooh I like the idea. Though I think there are foils that would make for a better looking tail fin.

[limpid karma]

had to be horizontal

[slow harbor]

but its a little bit a triangle still

[limpid karma]

not my design

[wraith quiver]

im pretty hype about this one but something about the front bugs

[strange horizon]

What do you mean? You don’t work at games workshop and design 40k models? Lol

[austere shell]

Anyone have any tips to make this look better?

[limpid karma]

i dont think i could handle the modern gw office

[slow harbor]

here look oye, not a triangle

and looks awesome

[stark harness]

Has anyone made a hotrod corvette yet?

[pliant sparrow]

i like the shape!

[limpid karma]

me in the cockpit looking at nothing

cool though

i think they should add a way to see through parts

maybe a camera piece

idk

[strange horizon]

I also wish corvettes had better color options and more exterior light options-. Though I just generally wish I could use white and grey lights everywhere to serve my species proudly.

[wraith quiver]

i dont mind hiding the cockpits

[limpid karma]

idk how they would do it

[wraith quiver]

just putting screens inside ersumshit

[limpid karma]

i like to fly in first person so i really cant

[wraith quiver]

yeah i feel that

i fly the OG starships in first person, but with the corvettes, i like to see my creation lol

[limpid karma]

i have made gigantic ships

i would like to see in front of me on those ones

[foggy monolith]

@abstract obsidian

[wraith quiver]

that one was my biggest

[stark harness]

I hope we get expansions to corvette missions. I'd love to be able to go on frigate missions with my fleet

[strange horizon]

What counts as gigantic? Because mine has 14 habs.

[wraith quiver]

kind of a goal for me i wanted to try to flip a part, use the landing thrusters, and use more than 3 habs.

[limpid karma]

basically at part limit

[wraith quiver]

i dont like to use a bunch of habs cos h onestly i dont like walking around a big ass ship

[pliant sparrow]

Anyone tried making the DHV Magellan yet?

[strange horizon]

Oh well mine is exactly 100/100 lol

[limpid karma]

mine is too

it barely fits in the space station

[strange horizon]

Someone told me a cool trick that you can actually go over part limit by adding windows after exiting the editor

[limpid karma]

heres a cool picture i have of it

yeah i did that lol

dont come to my house

i didnt know that was there

[hallow verge]

ehhhhhh....

[wraith quiver]

dude thats not bad at all for a first attempt

[limpid karma]

make it bwue

[rugged jolt]

Looks good to me

If you want to polish it work on the underside

that can make it look a lot more put together

[limpid karma]

i like to make ships with no landing bay

[wraith quiver]

so like its going to feel odd at first cos the parts are huge and it wont feel like things "work together" but just mess aroound with pieces. find a similar angled piece and replace it so on and so forth

[hallow verge]

ough yea this sucks lmao

[limpid karma]

enter through a hole in the roof

[hallow verge]

I think I just need more pieces honestly

[strange horizon]

Also a good way you can “hide” a cockpit but keep it operational is by basically building a tiny ship on the bottom and building the rest of it ontop of that.

[wraith quiver]

every time i see someone build a boat style ship i hope to god theyve done that lol

[rugged jolt]

Even if you just mirror the angled front on the underside as well

[limpid karma]

my big ship has a cockpit on the underside

[strange horizon]

That’s fair. I only need to go through like 4 lol.

[wraith quiver]

yeah i have a big windowed room on the bottom i could swap to a cockpit should i so please

[rugged jolt]

Been sitting here chatting about shipbuilding while the sentinels are hunting me down outside this building

[strange horizon]

They will never leave you alone

[rugged jolt]

I know but its funny to waste their time

[sleek oasis]

with these engines im 15 over the limit 😡

[rugged jolt]

Darn

I feel that tho

I so wish the limit was 120

[sleek oasis]

looks like ill have too mod

[strange horizon]

It gives me a mantaray/scorpion vibe. I like the idea.

[sleek oasis]

its more like a bulky naboo star fighter

Maybe I keep the engine thing and try to make one instead?

[wraith quiver]

think my next projects gonna be to build an asymmetrical ship

Always a good idea

Was just staring at a hauler thinking asymmetrical ships look super cool

got a particular style or vibe you wanna go for?

[wraith quiver]

man im not even sure. i think i wanna do something detached maybe one wing larger than the other rather than just one wing

but hell idek

i want it small though. i want to use the landing thrusters again.

[strange horizon]

I do love the Naboo star fighter.

[distant sleet]

any way to put this boat in the water for real?

[tulip dagger]

might be able to use the starship water landing things

[distant sleet]

tried, i just float way above the water

those water lander things are uselss for corvettes

[rugged jolt]

You can't use landing thrusters on large ships?

[strange horizon]

You might be able to glitch parts under the ship builder.

And then those parts might be able to go into the water.

[wraith quiver]

those are just two things i wanted to do my bad. ive done thrusters on my large ship that was my last build

[rugged jolt]

oh okay lol

Honestly I would be into a smaller asymmetric pirate or junker style ship

[wraith quiver]

yeah thats kinda what im goin for

[rugged jolt]

In my head I'm picturing ships from the X wing miniature game

The scum and villainy faction

[wraith quiver]

i want something "grineer" esque if youve played warframe

[rugged jolt]

this kinda vibe

[abstract saffron]

Star citizen Corsair and caterpillar are both asymmetrical and pretty cool looking if u want inspiration

I tried to make a caterpillar corvette but the actual ship is too small for me to really use it

[rugged jolt]

That would be super difficult and super cool

they have very organic looking shapes to their ships and tech

[wraith quiver]

yeahhh i dont think ill be able to do it THAT well lmao

[rugged jolt]

If you did a larger build it would be doable

but I feel a smaller build would struggle a lot

You would probably have to do a lot of offset building with the engine casings

[wraith quiver]

duude yehhhh

[rugged jolt]

and then add in some lamp poles

to resemble grineer spikes

[wraith quiver]

i just wanna use the titan cockpit for something and be able to see the top and bottom

[rugged jolt]

oooooh

[wraith quiver]

love how you can see through the floor

i want a "small cyclops" kinda deal.

[rugged jolt]

Actually that would be super awesome if you could see the asymmetry from inside the cockpit

[wraith quiver]

but when i say small i mean

[rugged jolt]

oh noes

we can work with this

[wraith quiver]

this was actually a total accidend i have no clue how i did it but we're gonna send it.

accident*

[abstract obsidian]

Does anybody recognize this ship? I don't remember building this but it has the same name as my old ship

[blissful helm]

How do you increase technology slots on the Corvette?

Never mind, I remembered lol

[ivory heart]

bruh

[rugged jolt]

You have inspired me

[pliant sparrow]

Lol poor

Lemme see your corvette

[pliant sparrow]

Oohh

[ivory heart]

unmodded too lol

[pliant sparrow]

What’s ur reference?

Looks almost like the fondor ship

[wraith quiver]

damn that thing is coming along

[ivory heart]

womp womp no gif

[ivory heart]

im going for a unsc vibe

[pliant sparrow]

Ooo

[ivory heart]

using this as a rough reference, but definitely not following it 1:1

the top left hull for example is more a 2x1 slope but im doing a sharper 1x1 because it looks better for this

[pliant sparrow]

my two builds atm

The 2nd one I just made mostly using the offset adjacency thing

The 1st one’s entirely glitch-free

[ivory heart]

most of my internals will be completely custom made if no wild bugs break the idea lol

[pliant sparrow]

Yeahh

[ivory heart]

ive already had to learn 2 forbidden techniques to pull off this thing so far

[pliant sparrow]

That’s the issue with going super manual with these corvettes,

[ivory heart]

one was scale

i got er 26 modules long

cut down to 24 though because of both overlapping with other peoples ships and an issue with placing custom parts that far out

[rugged jolt]

I swear I saw that first one on yt

[long pawn]

For sure!

Really dig the first one

[woeful whale]

why my corvette ship's all guns are not working properly? how to properly work my guns in corvette ships anyone have any tips?

[ivory heart]

i see the vision

dont mind the scaffolding on the right lmao

[woeful whale]

who's ugly ship is this?

[wraith quiver]

im so heated i fucked it up

[pliant sparrow]

Ty! Yeah they’re both original designs

[ivory heart]

thats like 10% of a ship to you 🔫

[woeful whale]

looks pure shit, and lazy!

[pliant sparrow]

I try to make their profiles look memorable

[stark harness]

Holy crap! You made the roach?

Ty so much. Your build is an inspiration rn for mine!

[pliant sparrow]

Awh thanks lol

[woeful whale]

i see that ship in the youtube, he must be copy it from it!

[wraith quiver]

im going to punch my own face cos i accidentally did the cockpit to entryway glitch

[pliant sparrow]

Yeah I built the roach ship, both are original designs and use some pinterest ships as reference for the aesthetic

[wraith quiver]

but i cant digure out how to let it let me save lol

figure*

[pliant sparrow]

Yeah he made a youtube video on his “iteration” of it, he mentions my name in it for like 5 seconds but kind of treats it like it’s his own :0

[pliant sparrow]

it’s a work in progress vro

trust the process, especially in Lily’s case since they’re making their ship hull off of exterior decor

[stark harness]

Noice!

My plan rn is that I'm gonna use your cockpit area with its dome, but give it a deck below that like a sailing ship.

Mine is a gonna be more back heavy, favoring the bigger engines over the wings.

Im going for luxury cruiser design wise

[pliant sparrow]

Ooh, definitely would wanna see

[rugged jolt]

Is the roach ship your own naming or is it a reference to something

[pliant sparrow]

My own naming

[rugged jolt]

okay okay

I kept trying to google roach ship to no avail lmao explains why

[pliant sparrow]

It reminded me of a roach because of the “shell” I built encasing the top

[rugged jolt]

What do we think????????????/

[wraith quiver]

daaamn yes

i cant figure out how to save without a hab lol

[rugged jolt]

wanna know a secret?

I put in the hab lmao

[pliant sparrow]

I love round ships

[rugged jolt]

Supposedly you can though idk

[wraith quiver]

LOL im wanting to make this tiny bug so badly. going to mke it like a fiddler crab style i guess

[rugged jolt]

I only did the green paint job to make it look grineer

[stark harness]

The hab framework im working with. I basically swapped around your hab framework.

Deck 3: Command, Radar, kitchen
Deck 2: Computer Core, Engine Room
Deck 1: Cargo hold, Hydroponics

[rugged jolt]

imma try a red black look

[pliant sparrow]

Cool

[rugged jolt]

It keeps bugging out

Some reason the base deco items wont stick

[pliant sparrow]

I want to see more vertical ships too

[stark harness]

For sure!
Vertical is more fun

I actually like having the central staircase in this one

[sleek oasis]

Would help if we could rotate parts vertically

[rugged jolt]

I may try a vertical ship next

Do a 3 pointed ship

Left wing, top wing, bottom wing

[pliant sparrow]

Yeahh, but it forces some creativity

Like using the foil wings to make the up curve on the bottom hull.

[sleek oasis]

Not really, its more limiting, what you can do instead would 90% of the time be more uglier than a clean part rotated vertically

[ivory heart]

pre-OSHA augh scaffolding 🤣

[pliant sparrow]

Truee, but I guess my ships embrace more of a stripped mish-mash look

a lotta greeble

[ivory heart]

its gaining elegance with every panel 🤤

[ivory heart]

ooh very nice

[sleek oasis]

Like this one looks good, but the long parts rotated downward would look much better

[ivory heart]

i dont see many vertical ships like that done effectively

[clear holly]

does adding more thrusters increase speed?

[sleek oracle]

I completed the expedition and copied my Corvette, but it is invisible and not showing up, but I can spawn it

[sleek oasis]

Modules are still king

[sleek oracle]

Any ideas?

[sleek oasis]

Should really go in #nms-questions

[clear holly]

i see, but is there still some benefit? its also a matter of decoration

[sleek oasis]

They're additional modules

They're not amazing but it's still a boost

[wraith quiver]

gdi what is the name of that video explaining how to build without required parts

[pliant sparrow]

Was this yours?

[sleek oasis]

No

Just an example

[pliant sparrow]

Yeahh, you get what I mean tho yeah?

[sleek oasis]

The front would look much much better with vertical parts

More closer to the original pic

Cleaner and sleek

[rugged jolt]

Definitely prefer the red black paintjob over the grineer green

[pliant sparrow]

Sure, but he made his own, original design, working with the parts he had

[pliant sparrow]

Idk there’s a lotta uniqueness

[ivory heart]

should i have the hangar bay doors go 2 long as highlighted or back for another module length?

[sleek oasis]

Well, he was trying to recreate a ship so... He's limited by the builder

[pliant sparrow]

Have you thought about using the sharper fuselage pieces on the top like this one?

[rugged jolt]

I could but I was going for more of an organic look inspired by the grineer

now that I've finished that I'll try the sharper edges

[pliant sparrow]

Ahh

[stoic crystal]

Finally made my first corvette! It’s a compact lol

[tough veldt]

still waiting for someone to recreate the 50ti from sc

[upper wigeon]

What do you think? Does it sort of resemble a 1930's Buck Rogers Spaceship? 😄

[nimble stirrup]

hotdog

🌭

[rugged jolt]

Remidns me of the yellow submarine but its not yellow

Idk why

it doesn't look like the yellow submarine

but that is what it reminds me of

[upper wigeon]

I can kinda see that

[rugged jolt]

Unfortunately Idk what a 1930s buck rogers ship looks like so I have no feedback there lol

[wraith quiver]

anyone have a video on how to build a ship without a hab

cant find them now that im actually looking for it lol

[rugged jolt]

I don't unfortunately

Didn;t know it was possible

[pliant sparrow]

funny that looks like the first corvette you made!

:D

[nimble stirrup]

you think you're funny

[pliant sparrow]

you’re gosh darn right feller

[rugged jolt]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaa can't say that this looks too good lol... might be my worst design yet

[pliant sparrow]

Keep workin on it

there’s potential

[pliant sparrow]

its still less suggestive than @nimble stirrup ‘s 1st corvette ☺️

[nimble stirrup]

[pliant sparrow]

ASSAULTT

[rugged jolt]

Its not as bad with the front BULGE removed

but still

not great

[rugged jolt]

well you can't say that without sending it to me

Curiosity will kill this cat

[stark harness]

Very old sci fi coded! I love it

[pliant sparrow]

@nimble stirrup you heard the man

[rugged jolt]

Now I'm afraid

[rugged jolt]

I made this one with a similar vibe

Kinda like

Old nasa shuttle left to rot

[stark harness]

Ooooooo

Thats cool!

[pliant sparrow]

oooh

aaah

[rugged jolt]

and the crowd went mild

[nimble stirrup]

[pliant sparrow]

:>

[cold charm]

eh eh?

its only a little based off of the paris class unsc ship from halo

This one named the Promise of Dawn

offsets have been used btw

[stark harness]

Honestly this stuff makes me want some space engineers style power management.
Like our reactors need fuel since its pretty much a mobile base

[limpid karma]

maybe a backwards square thruster here

[cold charm]

idk how to do backwards thrusters tbh

[pliant sparrow]

Ehh, use attachers instead of habs on the side

[merry silo]

Went for a stealth jet approach, what do u think?

[rugged jolt]

I fixed it? (ignoring the floating antenna I just have to set them down again after changing some parts)

[rugged jolt]

Even still, not my proudest work

[woeful whale]

can someone navigate me where are these orange big cylinder parts in the game?

[lilac mountain]

reminds me of that one star wars ship, the invisible spike or something

[rugged jolt]

The stealth one?

[copper kindle]

Looks like a sith lightsaber

[rugged jolt]

Anything is a lightsaber if you're brave enough

[copper kindle]

It's the storage unit

Ah no gifs

[rugged jolt]

Sad

[foggy monolith]

@fervent mist

[rancid lichen]

how are people making open-air corvettes? or using the normal base building walls on their corvettes

[lilac mountain]

ye it looks like that highkey

[sharp plinth]

Oh, I have strange idea. What if I place ship landing pad on my corvette

[foggy monolith]

mods

[rancid lichen]

how do you do that "cowling" bit?
the angled panels

[ivory heart]

Painfully

So I made a second line of hull modules on the right as scaffolding, then placed angled modules where the cowling (which will be its normal hull plating) is. Then I used the wall panel deco, a lot of patience, and some pain

[rancid lichen]

🫡

[quick gyro]

B2 bomber

[hexed shoal]

those are storage containers inside the titan habitat module

[nimble iris]

How do I put stairs to go to the hab above?

[hexed shoal]

there different for each habitat module

[hexed shoal]

just look foreward and place them

if you look down it will place them below

[nimble iris]

But I've already finished the edition of my corvette.

[hexed shoal]

you can build them after your finished

just enter the corvette open build menu and select corvette modules

its the chair shaped icon

[nimble iris]

Ok i do that but i need to put the stairs inside the abs

I made the helicarrier

[hexed shoal]

you want to place them below the habitats?

[nimble iris]

Yes

to enter the pilot's cabin above

[hexed shoal]

i dont think you can but the tunderbird acses is like an elevator you could use that

[hexed shoal]

fire

[nimble iris]

Thx

[nimble iris]

I can put it inside?

[hexed shoal]

its like an 1 by 1 walkway with an elavator going down

swich to creative and try it out i would say

[nimble iris]

This guy say that but i can’t understand what is he saying

[hexed shoal]

a yes i understand

place an habitat where you like the stairs

then place the stairs inside the habitat and remove the habitat

the stairs should stay in place

[nimble iris]

But what type of stairs, landing one?

Cuz i can’t find another type of “stair”

[hexed shoal]

no those are landing gears

[nimble iris]

Landing bay*

[hexed shoal]

you cant find it while editing your corvette

exit edit mode

enter your corvette and press z

its like base editing

[nimble iris]

ooooh i do that before but i don’t see the stairs

[hexed shoal]

its at the pilot chair icon

called internal stairway

[nimble iris]

Srry for that trash of english, i havent practiced much lately

And this corvette stuff stressed me lol

[hexed shoal]

its okay

i aint perfect myself

[nimble iris]

Yes i found it

[hexed shoal]

im on keyboard rn else you couldnt read it

[hexed shoal]

happy to help

[nimble iris]

Oooo now i can acces to the main cabin

[nimble iris]

Thx thx

[hexed shoal]

are you new to the game?

[twilit umbra]

Guys did glitch building get patched or something

Or am I just stupid

[hexed shoal]

idk

never used it

but the devs dont remove positive gluches like that

like an duplication glich has been around for years

de dont pach ehm becouse if you want to dupe shit than thats on you

so i dont think it got removed

[twilit umbra]

Ig im just idk how to do it

[hexed shoal]

search on yt

[nimble iris]

No

I play since 2 years i think

Anybody has an idea to make the ranger from insterstellar? 🔥

I want to tho that next but i think its so small for a corvette

[hexed shoal]

seen the movie but no i have no idea

[nimble iris]

Dmn i need to find how by myself so

I’m not that creative but i going to try

[quick gyro]

My first ever Corvette, kinda like how it turned out, only 12.7M units

[final basalt]

thoughts on my first attemt at a SR-71 Blackbird

[wicked dagger]

And so we have a quick 1 hour build Mech

[nimble iris]

How can i park my ship into my helicarrier corvette?

[hexed shoal]

hover on top of ot and slowly aproach. When you are near press land

[nimble iris]

Okok thx

Why i cant use torpedos?

[calm cloud]

destiny pyramid fleet lookin ahh

[keen copper]

Hey can someone help me with my corvette build please? 🙏 I need giant sails but I can’t glitch them bigger using the scale glitch because I bought the transmitters 🥲

[onyx crest]

how many missiles can u put on a corvette

[neon bay]

I think 2 is the max that has an impact on missile performance but you can put as many of the pods on as you want

[onyx crest]

so i can send a doomsday volley? or will how does more than 2 work

i want to feel my game die from the amount of missiles even with 1 dmg

[daring heron]

whats wrong with my ship, i just put everthing that has stats

[muted summit]

Wait can you park ships on corvette?

[nimble iris]

Yes

[orchid blade]

Don't mind me just getting my slots xD

[nimble iris]

I do it and it works

[muted summit]

Holy shit
Do they disappear after reload or stay?

Also can you post a pic of your corvette build?
I want to try it

[orchid blade]

i wonder if i trump this?

[daring heron]

how they put terminus portal inside ship?

[brisk jewel]

Does anyone know if there is a build tutorial for this?

[daring heron]

why something like this is can only happen in creative mode, in survival even you have mod or have alot of part, we cant design somethign like this because it need a lot of trial and error

[daring heron]

in yt have a lot of trick

[brisk jewel]

Real shame, people normally post build tutorials but I can not find for this one. I'll just pass on this build

[upbeat oracle]

glitch building suprisingly has never been patched

u just gotta really work for it

its hard asf to do if u dont know what ur doing

[daring heron]

they should not patch it, they need to make it as features

[upbeat oracle]

or u can be me n do wtv n hope it works

[upbeat oracle]

base building update soon...

trust...

better camera...

anyways posted it here earlier but i followed a guide for this ship n im loving it

[hard tide]

Does anyone know how to build a long Corvette in the freighter style? I couldn't find any construction videos.

[brisk jewel]

I think I might do the same, do what you can from a pic and hope for the best. Play with it as you go along. good build

[nimble iris]

Ok wait

[nimble iris]

@muted summit

[snow flint]

Has anyone had the problem with the corvette disappearing. i can summon it but its just not there

[daring heron]

i like how people make spaceship that look like a spaceship

[signal mulch]

Straight or swept-back wings?

[snow flint]

the swept back ones look sick

[signal mulch]

Thanks!

[daring heron]

cheap to craft and stackable, yess i love it

[daring heron]

why make wing when there is no air in space?

[signal mulch]

Aesthetics

Plus we fly over planet surfaces

[abstract crow]

Unless you're somehow just completely avoiding the atmosphere at all times.

Plus, the space shuttles all have wings.

Alright. Time to try and get these damn glitches to work again...

[cold charm]

finishing final fitting son my U.N.S.C. Promise of Dawn

:#

[abstract crow]

Dammit. I still can't get the glitches perfect! The nose of the ship just won't let me flip the damn Arcadia wing.

[bitter canyon]

finishing up the first layer

and control room, tho the rest empty still idk what to do xD

[twilit umbra]

I tried to do it and it didn't work :/

[abstract crow]

Wait, got it figured out finally.

[vital wraith]

Corvetti my spaghetti

[abstract crow]

Oh yeah. We going big with this one.

[bitter canyon]

gl!

[neon bay]

I saw one of these in the anomaly a couple hours ago

[abstract crow]

Doing the nose already gave me a hernia, so it should be smooth sailing from here

[bitter canyon]

can promise it doesn't

lol

i made it smoother and its aids

[abstract crow]

But your design has a lot of overlapping to it to be as close to the real design as possible. For my own sanity, I'll be trying to tone that down a bit and make a variant of an SD. Also, I have no idea what parts you used.

[neon bay]

I don't know how anyone has the patience for glitch building, I tried it and it just pissed me off

[bitter canyon]

doing the interior now

[bitter canyon]

i was very annoyed too lol

[abstract crow]

You ain't glitch building right if you aren't about to break your controller or mouse out of frustration

[neon bay]

I really hope they keep working on the shipbuilding system in the next few updates to add more features and allow greater creativity with the size and placement of modules

[abstract crow]

I hope they add more lighting so I don't need to use this mod just to see what I'm doing.

[neon bay]

It'd be easy enough to do, there's already lights in the landing pad so they'd just need to make the light values increase when you load your corvette in

[neon bay]

If they wanted to get really fancy they could have some "shop lights" that could pop up out of the pad to make it look more sci fi or whatever

[abstract crow]

I think the modder just put 2x the lights around the pads. But either way works

[graceful cape]

anyone else experiencing a glitch where the camera zooms out super far away in corvettes?

like this?

[fervent mist]

Do corvettes have a class?

I’m currently farming parts and was wondering

[merry silo]

Which version looks better for my stealth jet build?... can't decide

[twilit umbra]

They're called corvettes I think

[analog olive]

No but would be awesome to know how you did it, cause i cant see anything with the close camera

[fervent mist]

Sorry I worded it wrong o mean like C,B,A,S

Like do parts affect its grade

[twilit umbra]

Ohh
Yeah I think they do

Like the reactors do

And you can upgrade its class like normal ships

[fervent mist]

Is there a way to just go straight to s

[twilit umbra]

I think it starts out C class overall
Then you can upgrade it to S

[twilit umbra]

Meh idk
You could just go to creative and buy the upgrades

Otherwise I don't think so

[twilit umbra]

I don't see any difference :p

Other than maybe the colors

[fervent mist]

Okay ty

[merry silo]

@twilit umbra Cockpit in different locations

[daring depot]

yeah, experienced quite a few new bugs with the corvettes actually, had one yesterday where when i try to use the pulse engine it resets my ships direction the oposite way that i wanted to travel :/

[twilit umbra]

Oh I just noticed
Eh I'd say 1

[merry silo]

@twilit umbra Sweet, thank you

[fervent mist]

I don’t get these parts

[twilit umbra]

Why?

[twilit umbra]

You're welcome

[fervent mist]

Not sure on what I need

Might just build something small for now and then try look for the parts I think look the best

Obviously there’s no way to get the part I want exactly but I’ll just have to keep farming

[twilit umbra]

You don't need much for an actual simple frame
But making smth bigger and nicer needs some creativity

[fervent mist]

Going to see what I can make with these first probably

[twilit umbra]

Alright good luck

[fervent mist]

So just to be clear the parts don’t affect the ships grad or stats and are all just cosmetic

[twilit umbra]

No they do affect it
Like the manouverability, shield strength, and power

You can just test around and see what each part does in the workshop

It doesn't use the parts

[abstract crow]

Now this is where things get challenging: How to fill in the gaps.

[wet iris]

Has anyone tried and made short range teleporters work for corvettes?

[twin oxide]

How i get this grass and plants

[wet iris]

The plants and such is parts for base building. Unlock them at the construction unlock thing in the anomaly or buy for quicksilver at the quicksilver merchant.

Some are also expedition rewards.

[quaint venture]

might be mine being buggy but those parts u have on the side are flipped the opposite way for me

but very cool ship

[abstract crow]

No, they're flipped. There's a glitch that allows you to rotate otherwise unrotateable parts

[grizzled willow]

Question regarding some of the builds I have seen, how do we get noclip/free placement with corvette parts? Or are these peopel doing it with glitch building?

[hardy oracle]

Corvette parts always snap. But there's plenty of glitches you can use to snap them in ways the devs probably didn't intend

[abstract crow]

Sometimes you can do it naturally, other times, you gotta glitch them.

[exotic minnow]

mmmm my new corvette

[novel grail]

What is my Aquatic Research Vessel missing? Need good decoration tips

[abstract crow]

Water

[gloomy nebula]

Okay I have my spreadsheet of corvette parts

I have to go into the game and see how many of each I actually have.

Also I could not see the full name of all the things on the resources page so I have to get that from the game itself.

I included the parts that are not in the game yet! There are 3 cockpits we haven’t gotten, among other things. And the Infra-knife platform

[abstract crow]

One of the joys of glitch building is placing something on accident and just not knowing where the hell it went

[grizzled willow]

I get it

[hardy oracle]

Hah, yeah. I keep backups and reroll if I can't find something I placed 😄

[grizzled willow]

that's going to be useful

[abstract crow]

Ope. Found it.

[mild stratus]

There the storage module for the inside of titan habs

[fervent mist]

does anyone have a cool tutorial?

[hardy oracle]

What kind of tutorial are you looking for? You could look around at different ships people made and see if there's something you don't know how to do and ask about that specifically. The corvette system isn't all that complicated but there's enough of it that showing off all the possibilities would take hours.

[mild stratus]

Currently tinkering with this design love the idea of giving corvettes "tusks" at the front

[hardy oracle]

It seems slightly difficult to see out of that cockpit 🙂

[mild stratus]

Actually you can still see out of cockpit a little with this build but I don't play in first person so I like hiding them

[dense torrent]

Is there a way to pin salvage scrap to farm corvette parts?

[hardy oracle]

Look at it and hold E, just like you pin anything else with the scanner

[dense torrent]

Oh sorry, I meant via the catalogue

[twilit umbra]

Isn't there a 100 part limit
How are yall just doing ts

[hardy oracle]

Mods

[twilit umbra]

Feels too big for 100 parts

[rancid sedge]

im going to be spending time getting parts and building ships today lol

[twilit umbra]

Nice
Good luck

[hardy oracle]

It can be pretty quick if you have the right tools. That being a corvette with a ballista. 🙂

[abstract saffron]

yall know how to remove a corvette piece that you cant select?

[rancid sedge]

oh yes

i know

i know

[abstract saffron]

hope they add the untextured infraknife cannon platform to the game

[smoky sleet]

Why do my Corvettes look ugly

[cedar pagoda]

They beautiful on the inside

[hushed gazelle]

making a ship right now based on the panther clipper from elite dangerous but smaller, what u all think so far? and what should i change?

[smoky sleet]

how many floors?

[hushed gazelle]

3

this is the top

and the bottom

[cedar pagoda]

I need a side by side

[hardy oracle]

It didn't seem so big at a glance due to how well you angled the sides, but that's many times the volume of my ship! I just have two hab modules on mine >.<

[hushed gazelle]

mine is slightly different

smaller obviously

its impossible to build a 1 to 1 scale of the ship in nms

cuz its bigge than the grid

[cedar pagoda]

How far from limit are you with it?

[hushed gazelle]

back

[hushed gazelle]

not that far at all but it was a nightmare to build the first one

due to its gargantuan size

so i just made a smaller version

heck even the smaller version looks massive and very spacious lmao

[cedar pagoda]

I'm over here thinking how to improve with a medium small version rn lol

[hushed gazelle]

its very similar to its shape

[hardy oracle]

Doesn't it get difficult to actually use a ship that size for gameplay?

[hushed gazelle]

i just liked the shape thats why i made a smaller version that still has that shape

[cedar pagoda]

Is it 5 wide?

[hushed gazelle]

5 wide

this is it landed, and yes

[hardy oracle]

Looks like 7 wide to me, but maybe you're not counting wings and landing gear

My ship is only 2 wide if you only count the body, I suppose that's on the slimmer side

[hushed gazelle]

ye

[mild stratus]

I really hope hg change it so we can change the colour of the ambassador interior walls they look cooler and the most alien

[hardy oracle]

I like mine orange:

[cedar pagoda]

I get flash banged everytime I go in mine in the station lol

[final basalt]

thoughts on my first attemt at a SR-71 Blackbird

[mild stratus]

Literally it's so bright plus the interior doesn't match the dark colours pallete of my ships shell

[twilit umbra]

I just realised that I suck at building :-:

Man

[cedar pagoda]

I was thinking of putting my own walls in

[hardy oracle]

While you can't turn them black or grey, you can tint ambassador pretty well using lighting.

Not a recommended color, but this is ambassador tinted green from above and orange from below. If you're into that kind of madness:

[flint pendant]

How did you get the interior painted

[hardy oracle]

By hiding lamps of the color I wanted in little nooks and corners:

[mild stratus]

My current newbuild ship.....forced to have a white interior

[hushed gazelle]

but yeah anything u guys suggest i change on my ship?

[sleek oasis]

The interior depends on the parts you use

[cedar pagoda]

Unfortunately all I can think of is downscaling.

[hushed gazelle]

u want me to make it even smaller?? 😭

[mild stratus]

Yes I know but I'm tired of using thunderbird all habs should be colour changeable inside

[cedar pagoda]

No

[hardy oracle]

Just paint your ambassador insides then? I did mine in orange

[sleek oasis]

Then don't complain lmao

[cedar pagoda]

But you'll have more flexibility

[small plaza]

You... can't?

Did they change it

[hardy oracle]

Technically no, but practically yes? You can use light to tint it:

[small plaza]

Ah

Fair enough

[hardy oracle]

I'm intentionally only tinting it from below because I want to see the color of the environment on the upper parts but you could tint it from multiple directions

[mild stratus]

There's nothing wrong with criticism about weird design choices by hg but ok

[cedar pagoda]

I can try to copy it and see what I get but might not look exactly and no cool moving engine parts 🙁

[hushed gazelle]

indeed very sad

thats why i used those legs

[cedar pagoda]

I figured

[cedar pagoda]

Is there a back angle of this?

[hushed gazelle]

here

[cedar pagoda]

Leveled?

[hushed gazelle]

leveled?

#nms-showcase-corvettes is where to show off your corvette »

[cedar pagoda]

Where I can see it straight

[buoyant kiln]

My first corvette I actually TRIED on.
What do y'all think?

[hushed gazelle]

uhh

[cedar pagoda]

I want to see the rear lol

[hardy oracle]

Hey, that looks lot like my second corvette. Except better 😄 I like the color scheme! Maybe a little bit too much red? Could color some pieces grey to tone it down a little bit

[buoyant kiln]

Thanks, but i kinda like it red

[cedar pagoda]

That one is angled at a birds view

[cedar pagoda]

You think we get voyagers 2?

[hardy oracle]

Are you asking if I think there's going to be more corvette content? In that case I'm sure there will be, there's no way Hello Games hasn't noticed how much people love corvettes

[cedar pagoda]

Rn everyone's ship looks unfinished or finished but similar.

[runic bluff]

I'm hoping the medbay becomes a reusable, periodically recharging healing station... but what purpose would the bunks serve?

[hardy oracle]

I think there's a lot of variety. Could always be more but I don't think my ship looks anything like the last few ships posted here.

[small plaza]

[cedar pagoda]

Nice a giant flying orange pill 😀

[hushed gazelle]

i showed u

[mild stratus]

Speak for yourself i make sure the entire exterior is covered so it doesn't look like a brick 😂only the ridiculous builds look unfinished or people who are new at ship building

[buoyant kiln]

Cutie patootie

[small plaza]

Skyfield?

[hardy oracle]

we all have our preferences. Some people like sleek warships. Me, I like my space potato

[hushed gazelle]

what?

[small plaza]

Sorry

Star Field

[hushed gazelle]

u fumbled that 2 times

its elite dangerous

[small plaza]

Bruh

Wait what the fuck

[hushed gazelle]

xD

[small plaza]

Which ship is that

I just made a Viper mk3 yesterday

[mild stratus]

Ps thanks for the tip I now hate ambassador habs a little less now I put blue lights in

[hushed gazelle]

panther clipper

[cedar pagoda]

Yeah I'll work with what I see and get back to you to show what It looks like

[small plaza]

Oooh it's a very new ship

[hushed gazelle]

hm

[small plaza]

No wonder

I haven't touched the game in years

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, I think ambassador suffers from being a bit too much of the same thing. That does make it a good canvas though

[small plaza]

Ambassador is very Star Trek
