[balmy cedar]

Hmmm

I'll stop with parking indicators

[exotic spruce]

leave the left turn blinker on for 735 light years

it's criminal how much glitch building I had to do just to put the damn shield inside the flatpack piece

[balmy cedar]

Both are always on

I'd kill for more metal looking ship parts

Bc I've only got 2

Metal like... Old metal music album covers

[exotic spruce]

what's the post from?

[balmy cedar]

Wdym?

[balmy cedar]

Street lamp

[raven rover]

Yeah bro oh my god

[exotic spruce]

AH!

[balmy cedar]

Atlantid

×3 of them actually

[raven rover]

i put mine on top but it served its purpose

[balmy cedar]

Nice

[raven rover]

there should be a goddamn snap point in the middle

[balmy cedar]

I agree

Imagine if HG gave us detachable ship modules

Like a smaller ship attached to a bigger ship

[raven rover]

escape pod

[balmy cedar]

Combiners

Yea

[raven rover]

Id like a internal hangar instead

It would be useless

But its cool

[exotic spruce]

I'm glad the glitching of habs was so bad the engine doesn't even bother trying to make doorways to the overlapping habs

[balmy cedar]

I don't glitch habs

Too hard lmao

[stray galleon]

Got a video showing that

[raven rover]

lemme record

[raven rover]

and that is with ZERO upgrades

[flat current]

Bonjour

[balmy cedar]

Amazing

I like how it has a dual deck

Unlike my Lead Zepplin

[flat current]

Deck?

[balmy cedar]

The pointy front parts

[flat current]

Ah right

[balmy cedar]

And the top flatish part

[stray galleon]

That do be a alot of dmg

[balmy cedar]

Sorry. I suck with words sometimes

[flat current]

So do i lol

[balmy cedar]

(And I'm a wannabe writer lmao)

[raven rover]

riiightt, imagine that with some upgrades

[balmy cedar]

I like the new boosters

HG been hitting it outta the park with the starship trails

[flat current]

@raven rover bruh scroll up

[raven rover]

i dont want to

[hard fjord]

The little antennas in the front: are they from the Atlas part or added?

[raven rover]

jk

[raven rover]

Looks siiick fam

[flat current]

This was the inspo which i added onto

[raven rover]

Atlas part has those

[hard fjord]

Ahh, ok. Thank you

[balmy cedar]

Very slick

[raven rover]

but that top part is too bare for me

[balmy cedar]

I like when weapons get cleverly hidden

[raven rover]

Like the habs behind the cockpit

[hard fjord]

Was looking for something like that... I just wanted the antennas though. 😅

[flat current]

Ye i couldn't figure out what to place there

[raven rover]

I think you should add some thingamajigs to decorate that

Ywah

[flat current]

Decals?

[timber temple]

This looks like a mini version of the Pirate Freighters

[raven rover]

when in doubt :

[timber temple]

REAL

[balmy cedar]

Anything that I should add to my space pirate ship?

[raven rover]

[hard fjord]

Or those vents, they look nice in my opinion

[balmy cedar]

Guns, decor, etc?

[flat current]

Fr

[balmy cedar]

A flag is on the docket

[raven rover]

might clash with the redness of the atlas parts

but yeahhh it works too

[hard fjord]

Ohh, true.

[flat current]

I forgor to take a pic from behind lol

Holdon lemme check steam

[raven rover]

glad i colored the cockpit gold

really sells the fake cockpit thing

[timber temple]

Anyways I opened the chat to see if anyone wanted parts. Had an hour session of just hunting for enough to assemble a full Corvette lol

[balmy cedar]

Very nice

[balmy cedar]

Pillar of the Horizon eh?

[timber temple]

Man all of you builders are so talented XD

[balmy cedar]

Crest on the waves

[raven rover]

Nahh its not talent 😭

[flat current]

I like the gold ...it adds a nice touch to the ship

[raven rover]

blood sweat and tears

[raven rover]

Yeahh

[timber temple]

Oh yeah I get the feeling there

[flat current]

Now i wana make another one lmao

[raven rover]

dew it...

[flat current]

This new one moves like a brick

[terse kestrel]

I'm not talented. I just steal from the last 50 years of TV and movies from the Sci-Fi genre

[balmy cedar]

Same

[flat current]

Need inspo

[balmy cedar]

Love me star trek

[raven rover]

Bricks r cool

[terse kestrel]

GO GO ATLAS RANGERS ✊

[balmy cedar]

Is that the megazord?

[raven rover]

Hell yeahh

[flat current]

Sure..
Makes a supreme brick corvette

[balmy cedar]

GO GO ATLAS RANGERS

Haim Saban made a catchy intro tune

Did you know stan lee tried to being power rangers to the US a decade before it would come out?

Yes

That Stan Lee

[stray galleon]

@raven rover right now this is current build of my space shark need to work on the back fin

[balmy cedar]

Very nice

[raven rover]

I got some shark references

At least the front part

Thats not mine btw

[stray galleon]

im using this a the front, a torpedo in mouth and the engine as "teeths" but if we get a mega laser that where it going

[raven rover]

But this is really really good

Giant fuckoff lasee

R

[stray galleon]

hell yeah!

[flat current]

The decals at front looks nice

[wraith quiver]

oh fuck that sick

[stray galleon]

love it

[balmy cedar]

Stingray shaped ship named the Steve Irwin

Heh heh heh

No wait

[terse kestrel]

Bryan Cranston from breaking bad and Malcolm in the Middle was partially responsible for the megazords. He had spent time in Japan and saw how popular big city-sized robots were. So they were written into the pilot

[balmy cedar]

Have you ever heard of Super Sentai?

[terse kestrel]

That's like the one good story coming out of Bryan Cranston on the set of that show though 😬

[balmy cedar]

That's where the giant robot stuff comes from

Love malcom in the middle, even if Lois reminds me of my grandmother

[fair pilot]

That was through glitches or mods?

I'd like to have another type of glass, but 3 options we have just sucks...

Also, seems only 6 out of 8 barrels works properly - any way to fix it? Mods for extra effects installed.

[shadow wraith]

It's only limited to 6 turrets

[fair pilot]

I have mod installed that should fix that

[terse ingot]

How can one use normal base building parts (not the deco, things like walls) in corvettes? I saw people do that, is it only possible via mods?

[raven rover]

brooo 😭 im going back to mag landing thrusters

oh my god these look weeeeirrddd

[raven rover]

probably possible with vanilla glitches

[wraith quiver]

tip toein in my jordans

[balmy cedar]

Does anyone have any advice for ship naming?

[shadow wraith]

By being between a base computer and settlement, parking the corvette in the middle, and rapidly changing from Corvette to Base mode

[hard fjord]

The tiny legs!

Yeah, that... isn't ideal.

[raven rover]

😭

[shadow wraith]

nice high heels

[exotic spruce]

Can go wrong with a name that is just rolling your head on the keyboard

[balmy cedar]

All I've come up with is the: Beowulf Outrider

[raven rover]

im crying

[exotic spruce]

I suggested "The Reposessor" hours ago 🙂

[raven rover]

aw hell nah

[balmy cedar]

Hi crying! I'm Dai

[hard fjord]

I'm sure there's a case in which that works... I just can't picture it

[exotic spruce]

"Can't Afford Walls" is another name

[raven rover]

😭

[balmy cedar]

No I don't have milk and cigs

[raven rover]

probably would look better on a teeny tiny build

this is just not it man

[shadow wraith]

Since mine is based on the VCX-100 (Ghost being a name), I just named mine on different types of "ghosts"

[exotic spruce]

Specter \ Banshee \ Apparition \ Woooooo \ Ecto-one

[balmy cedar]

My convention is "Royal Space Force: [insert noun+numbers]"

[shadow wraith]

X-01 is Mirage, X-02 is Spectre, X-03 is Wraith

[balmy cedar]

Or. Mythology/metal

[shadow wraith]

Yeah

[balmy cedar]

I've got a Gojira

The Razor's edge...

All sorts

[shadow wraith]

I totally didn't name X-01 as Mirage because of it being "V1"

[wraith quiver]

Mourningbird/Mockingbird/CenturyPigeon/Tatsu

[exotic spruce]

"HMS Winner Winner Chicken Dinner"

[shadow wraith]

I also add random stuff on the end

Like T-MCC. Tulip-series, Multi Crew Corvette

[raven rover]

i see the century pigeon

[shadow wraith]

T-SSF. Tulip, Single Seat Fighter, T-MCCVF, Multi Crew Freighter/Carrier

Something like that

[wraith quiver]

lil chibi millenium falcon looking thing on my xbox account

[shadow wraith]

Oh yeah, the phase beam discussion earlier reminded me to make a laser platform on my VCX

For the funnies

[balmy cedar]

Oh yeah

I made a millenium falcon

And it has the radar dish

mine looks nothing like the millenium falcon actually but it was inspired by it lol

[mild stratus]

@wraith quiver bros alive hey dude 😂

[wraith quiver]

Workin and buildin lmfaooo waddup brother

[hard fjord]

That's the ideal situation imo.

I mean, I love all the reproductions people made, but... I'd rather see original designs 😆

[wraith quiver]

iom right with you on that tbh

plus i suck at remakes tbh

[mild stratus]

Just a wee hangover 😂slap sum rust on that new ship and ya got a cute little autophage ship

I was gunna make my atlas ship longer but @raven rover was correct and my ships already the perfect size making it longer ruins the front 😤

[wraith quiver]

dude yeah yesterday i had a rowdy hangover lol

[balmy cedar]

Looks solid

I don't get hangovers

[mild stratus]

I went out for bday drinks yesterday and got carried away @wraith quiver 😭

[balmy cedar]

Overbake sometimes

Never hangovers

[wraith quiver]

yeah that one has rust i need to just remake it on PC now

[balmy cedar]

Darned fat fingers

[stray galleon]

I do 3 letter and -number as acronym and version then a cool sounding name

Like say

SHC for something Super Heavy Cruiser
Then a number for what version it is

The result SHC-01 Lævateinn

[wraith quiver]

And AS YOU SHOULD @mild stratus hope it was a great Birthday spent happy belated

[balmy cedar]

I've got a similar naming convention then

RSF (Royal Space Force,) -03 Honnêamise

[mild stratus]

It was a great bday these were actually late drinks cus tus family was ill worth the wait tho but I missed mavericks corvette meet 😅

[balmy cedar]

If I get Gamepass I'll join a corvette meet

Xbox requireth my money to use basic onlinr features

[mild stratus]

My ships called the crimison eclipse but it's CRIMS0N3CLIPS3

More atlas named

[balmy cedar]

Nice

Or sometimes the game names ships for me

[hard fjord]

Could do an autophage-themed corvette and name it with greek letters...

[stray galleon]

My current ship is designation is PSC (Prinny Space Cruiser)
So PSC-01 Stormshark @balmy cedar

[balmy cedar]

This is what the game named my millenium falcon

Idk how or why

[sullen mesa]

On point

[balmy cedar]

Are the names randomly generated at first?

[hard fjord]

Oh, yeah, the procgen names aren't that great

[sullen mesa]

Yep

[balmy cedar]

It's a procgen name

I guess they're hit or miss

[hard fjord]

On corvettes it's usually miss lol.

[abstract crow]

Slowly making progress. Had to redo both second level sides because I messed up the design. Think I may go up one more level with the Arcadia wings, then start working on the top layer and bridge.

[hard fjord]

Not sure why.

[balmy cedar]

As opposed to the PF5 Nuyameg

[balmy cedar]

What ship is that gonna be?

Looks solid so far

[abstract crow]

A cruiser-sized corvette. Probably my new and improved "Eclipse-class"

[balmy cedar]

Nice

Better than my Outrider Class IG

[hard fjord]

H-how many parts?

[balmy cedar]

Have I shown yall my Normandy SR2?

[abstract crow]

She's slowly killing my PC when I'm trying to place habs outside the normal build area. As for part count? Probably going to be over 400

[hard fjord]

Figure -- that's one big corvette 😅

[abstract crow]

Hollowed out center though, so much less than it could be.

Gonna be a chonky girl, that's for sure.

[raven rover]

Happy birthday fam 🎉

[raven rover]

Siiickk

[raven rover]

If its not going to be habitable, why not use non hab blocks?

ik those are a bit curved but it might help on the performance side

[still edge]

Can someone show me a corvette that uses the aeron spikes? Im curious how they look if used properly

[raven rover]

Pyramid?

[still edge]

I forgot what they're called mb

[still edge]

Woah how'd you make the wing things diagonal?

[raven rover]

best i could do with them

[still edge]

Oh wow

[raven rover]

I dont like how they look tbh

[still edge]

Does that need mods?

[raven rover]

The vertical thing?

Used to be possible in vanilla

But someone said now it doesnt work anymore

[still edge]

Same they're kinda out of place since none of the other normal parts are sleek and flat like them

[raven rover]

The glitch

[still edge]

Ohh rip

[raven rover]

Yeap, super out of place

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

[raven rover]

The fact that theyre purely square is what i hate

[still edge]

I'd say the side wings are the most usable parts tbh

[abstract crow]

The entire bottom layer is habs, and I'm sure part of the sides will be, too. And so will part of the bridge. But that block always looks so bleh, and performance really isn't the goal for this ship. The size along dictates that.

[raven rover]

these kind of spikes would be fun

[raven rover]

The blades?

Yeahh

heres my use case for aeron parts

[still edge]

My corvette looks massive already tbh

[raven rover]

really good for aggresive angles

[still edge]

Woah nice

[raven rover]

i got a lot of inspo

[still edge]

Not vanilla Im assuming?

[raven rover]

ohh right yeahh

[raven rover]

Perfectly doable in vanilla

At least the overall shape

The amount of parts is not vanilla

[still edge]

Oh how?

[shadow wraith]

Aight, upgraded the armament on my VCX

[raven rover]

That angled wing thing is doable in vanilla

[shadow wraith]

(It has 6x Phase Beam firing on the huge thing above, coming out of the window/"lens")

[raven rover]

@still edge

[shadow wraith]

It's so funny that the sky started singing in Latin

[raven rover]

Thats how i did it

[still edge]

This is how my corvette looks rn its pretty standard

[wraith quiver]

i think that looks sick tbh

[raven rover]

Ooohh very nice

[raven rover]

^

[shadow wraith]

It's based off Ace Combat lmao

[raven rover]

Which one?

[still edge]

I think I can try moving the cockpit to be near the back since its kinda a hassle

[raven rover]

i only played the 7th one...

[shadow wraith]

Specifically the ADFX-01 with the Pixy armament

[raven rover]

How do i stack guns again...

Offsetting?

[shadow wraith]

Yeah

[raven rover]

ouhh

[shadow wraith]

All three are placed 0.5 apart, and with the other three facing "behind"

Which, in game, still goes towards front

[novel ibex]

My first corvette on the surface of a strange planet ^^

[shadow wraith]

In turn, the beam looks like just a normal singular beam

[raven rover]

Oh so if a gun is backwards, itll still fire forwards right

[shadow wraith]

Yeah

[raven rover]

You ever checked angled guns?

Bcs thrusters will have angled trails

[shadow wraith]

Yeah, that also works

[raven rover]

Ohh neat

[shadow wraith]

Would still fire directly to front

[raven rover]

i think i have a idea now

[shadow wraith]

You can stack four of them in one place on each 90 degree increment

But I'm lazy (even with the 90 degree angle literally just 4 habs away)

You can try using "sideways" turrets so that the beam looks like a "+" and looking like a singular beam

[raven rover]

Oh yeah

[still edge]

This is mainly focused on practicality tbh

[shadow wraith]

Funny enough, I only had this idea because I dreamt of it

Surprised it actually even worked (also happens with me and Factorio)

[raven rover]

hey whats your social media handle if you got one, wanna see your art

[still edge]

Bro had a vision 😭

[raven rover]

Dreaming is a powerful tool

[still edge]

Its orionyx_1 on twt

[shadow wraith]

Yeah I mostly dream about sandbox games most of the time

What's scarier is how accurate it does outside of the actual game

[raven rover]

Ou shiiittt nice dynamic poses man

firefly enjoyer i see

[still edge]

Tyy

[raven rover]

😭

I dream about drowning

And getting eaten by shorks

[still edge]

I remember that one time I half asleep dreamed of playing subnautica 😭

[raven rover]

watdehel

[still edge]

I got so addicted to subnautica I played it in my dream

[shadow wraith]

It does 25k damage in a single pass 😭

It's funny beam

Instantly deletes Sentinel shields

[raven rover]

I think the last time i dreamt about a game is when i played armored core 6

[shadow wraith]

I'mma test it on a Sentinel Freighter

[raven rover]

Even 6 unupgraded ones instantly vaporizes the shield and hull

[shadow wraith]

Yeah I put all S-tier parts on SC

I still prefer my Positron tho

[jovial mason]

what are people building

[exotic spruce]

dreams

[hard fjord]

So, first project trying lateral landing bays... am unsure about it. I guess it doesn't look terrible, but feels... common lol.

[raven rover]

@shadow wraith

[upper quartz]

the beam ship weapon?

[shadow wraith]

Yeah

[raven rover]

Yeah alotta people are doing it now but it looks really good fam

[still edge]

Phase beam on a corvette makes dogfights so easy lol

[raven rover]

Its bullshit

😭

[shadow wraith]

It's funny how comically large that laser housing is lmao

[exotic spruce]

Nope not common at all - you end up having to do some internal base building to make them useable - if it feels right on your ship then it's right.

[raven rover]

😭 😭 😭

Build a ship around a gun ahh

[shadow wraith]

A-10 ahh shipbuilding

[exotic spruce]

beat me to it

[hard fjord]

No no, not the lateral landing bay -- the sandwich of speedbird parts lol. Doesn't help that I went for arcadia wings too, which are nice, so many people use it lol.

[raven rover]

Oooohhhhhh

[still edge]

Im curious does anyone use the thunderbird landing bay?

[raven rover]

I do

For second entrances

Not for the main one

[lusty ravine]

Yes

[raven rover]

Bcs its buggy asf

[hard fjord]

Took inspiration from a couple I saw on the subreddit. Turns out there isn't that much internal space, but... enough, I'd say.

[shadow wraith]

I use it so I can enter 90 degree habs

With stairs ofc

Also as secondary teleport

[lusty ravine]

Can I see more angles

[exotic spruce]

I used to use it when it had the bug where the ceiling of the thunderbird landing bay was open to space, but now that it's fixed I can't jam real staircases up there so not any more

[raven rover]

Mfw when those fuckass landing pads can extend 2 blocks down

But the thunderbird landing bay elevator cant

[shadow wraith]

where high heels

[raven rover]

old pic 😔

[lusty ravine]

My bad thought you wasn't going to send

[wraith quiver]

thats hot.

[raven rover]

Nah was rummaging my screenshot folder

[exotic spruce]

try using the moonpool on the corvette - the posts go down ALL THE WAY to the ground when you teleport to base. Well, it did a month ago haven't tried that yet

[raven rover]

Its an old pic

[lusty ravine]

Idl why but it's cool looking i like it

[raven rover]

Oh i havent tried any base building on the corvettes

[hard fjord]

Did you rework this one after Breach?

[raven rover]

Might try that

[exotic spruce]

*since the expedition - thought was using the moonpool in the round room to just jup up into the ship and then head to the cockpit

[raven rover]

I did not

[jovial mason]

quick exit from cockpit

[hard fjord]

...dew it.

[raven rover]

im friggin pissed

[lusty ravine]

I posted a few a second ago

[raven rover]

your images did not load 😭

[lusty ravine]

Click em

[raven rover]

still doesnt want to load

[shadow wraith]

Oh yeah, am I the only one who tests my Corvette by firing a single shot on the Space Station to trigger Sentinel ships

[lusty ravine]

@raven rover

[raven rover]

I do it every goddamn tine

[hard fjord]

Yeah, the change in position really makes me wonder if that part wasn't supposed to be decorative...

[raven rover]

Ohhh yeahh that looks siick

[shadow wraith]

Try it with the Positron

[raven rover]

The 2 prongs

[raven rover]

Nah i hate positrons

😔

Im salty about those not being a sniper instead

[lusty ravine]

@raven rover did video load

[raven rover]

Frikin deadeye

[raven rover]

It did

[shadow wraith]

I accidentally fired it on one and it immediately spawned 50 Interceptors

[lusty ravine]

Bet thx

[jovial mason]

tried to make a round ship

[shadow wraith]

It's funny

[raven rover]

It wasnt a decorative piece in the first place

It alr said heavy booster

[lusty ravine]

Looks alian ast

[raven rover]

But it did not have trails

[shadow wraith]

No, that wasn't me who accidentally triggered out 20 interceptors on one of the expedition space station

[hard fjord]

Ohh... it was already together with the other boosters in the menu?

[raven rover]

I just assumed when they added the real thing, the old one would stay

[raven rover]

Yupp

[jovial mason]

yea took some time to make it abd i dont wanna delete it to make another corvette because of it 😭

[hard fjord]

Hmm... I stand corrected then.
...still unfortunate. 😆

[shadow wraith]

Funny enough, it's still used as a prop for the Firebird Arcadia

[shadow wraith]

With the engine right in front of the main hull

[raven rover]

it even had the purple flames and everything

[hard fjord]

Oh, yeah, I can see it now.

[raven rover]

im super bummed it got updated and removed the old one

[shadow wraith]

Wait, that actually has a notch on the front

[hard fjord]

Weird. It's kinda off, in terms of visuals. Quite different from all the other parts.
And by that I mean we should have more in that style lol.

[shadow wraith]

Vs. the old one

[raven rover]

better look at it

[hard fjord]

You need to upgrade that ship.
Has to be done, the world requires it.

[raven rover]

It shouldve never been a booster in the first place 😭 😭 😭

[raven rover]

i will when im done with this jet

i tried a bit

[terse kestrel]

What i think happened is the artistic team able to fully flesh out Titan and Thunderbird setups. But they're still working on ambassador.

[raven rover]

wasnt feeling it on the new snap points

its so bad compared to the old one

[shadow wraith]

Titan panelled window:

[raven rover]

like real bad

[exotic spruce]

I'm not Sherlock, but I think this is how our current ambassador parts are supposed to fit together:

[raven rover]

like it lost half of its original snap points

[hard fjord]

WIll have to glitch it like crazy I guess.

Will be a pain. 😕

[upper quartz]

we need more ambassador parts yeah

[raven rover]

This ship too

[exotic spruce]

sublight ones match the parts for the booster - the wing is more of a guess but it does protect some of the wires from the top

[wraith quiver]

would be cool for them to have made a ship in each "part style" and used those as the wrecked corvettes

[shadow wraith]

Hammerhead

[wraith quiver]

instead of one model

[raven rover]

Overused on the ambassador booster parts

[terse kestrel]

I like me some hammerhead style Corvette

[raven rover]

Now its kinda ruined

[exotic spruce]

but the wing parts have something missing

[shadow wraith]

Great, now I need to make the Hammerhead from Star Wars

Ram everything

[terse kestrel]

I wish we had proper ship destruction physics like that.

[raven rover]

oh not as ruined but

[raven rover]

WHYYY CHANGE THE SNAP POINTSSS

[terse kestrel]

I want to 360 spin that through a freighter 😂

[raven rover]

Im gonna be fr

[hard fjord]

That's the original one, right?

[wraith quiver]

beyblade dat mf

[shadow wraith]

This crawling on Atlas' feet

[terse kestrel]

Let it rip bro

[raven rover]

The vents does not look like it belongs with the ambassador parts

[raven rover]

Yup

[hard fjord]

...I'm kinda curious about the number of trails on the post-Breach version 😆

[raven rover]

lemme test that real quick

Its going to be ass

[exotic spruce]

agreed, it's a hard stop to the curvyness of the booster but the booster does fit in it... mislable or possibly missing snap points to put it lower to the ground?

[raven rover]

holy fuckin faecium ass

[sour kelp]

are there any tricks for getting peices to rotate when the dont want to? I have a really crazy idea that will only work if i can rotate some "floor only" pieces

namely placeable deco not corvette pieces

[wraith quiver]

any one do the "Cockpit behind a window" thing and make it work out

[raven rover]

i lost all hope

[shadow wraith]

Carrying my lunchbox

[raven rover]

Havent tried that

[exotic spruce]

that's a big lunchbox

[raven rover]

Oof idk anything about that sry

Man now 2 of my ship is actually ruined by the ambassador booster

[still edge]

Does this look good?

[raven rover]

My fault for using the unfinished one i guess

[hard fjord]

Man...

[raven rover]

Looks gooood

[hard fjord]

It looks like the internals of a piano

[raven rover]

Its actually ruined

Like ruined ruined

Cant exactly fly in 1st person too

well, it had a good run

Might be next on the chopping block

That one was once my magnum opus

Now i just hate lookin at it

[wraith quiver]

im a fucking moron

[raven rover]

The flying jungle too

[hard fjord]

There has to be a mod to disable at least half of those trails 😆

[gusty cave]

i very much like the expedition corvettte parts! they look great :D
sadly i cannot make anything out of them that doesn't look like a scrap heap 😅

[hard fjord]

Not that one... 🥀

[raven rover]

The ambassador booster was a defining piece for that

[raven rover]

i think because im using the no complexity limit mod, all of the trails show up

Theres a vanilla limit

Around 10 or smth

[hard fjord]

Ooohhh.

[raven rover]

But aw hell nah, i aint going back to 100 pieces just to delete some trails

😭 😭 😭

[shadow wraith]

Sadly unusable due to the midpoint blocking the view

[hard fjord]

But you can't decide which one is active, right?

[raven rover]

Yeahh

Might be crooked

[hard fjord]

Yeah, not worth it.

[raven rover]

Hell, even the ambassador one might be the one to light up instead

😭

[shadow wraith]

If physics were realistic, this wouldn't end well (also nice high heels)

[raven rover]

nice heels

[wraith quiver]

yeah im a FOOL lol used the wrong glass

[raven rover]

Slaaaayyy 💅

[wraith quiver]

i could possibly just use it and offset the cockpit

[still edge]

Is corvette fashion gonna be the endgame like how warframe has fashionframe 😭

[raven rover]

It alr is for me

[hard fjord]

Instagram invades NMS.

[raven rover]

Ive went 450 hours without playing the game

All of those time spent in space station just building corvettes

[wraith quiver]

"going to be"?

[raven rover]

Only touched grass to take pics

[shadow wraith]

Time well spent

[raven rover]

😭

[shadow wraith]

I only have around 40 hours as whole for Corvettes

[raven rover]

On warframe too, i farm frames not because of their abilities

[shadow wraith]

Not counting the dreams

[raven rover]

I WANT TO FASHION EM

[flat current]

Sus

[raven rover]

[still edge]

The pincers go kinda crazy icl

[raven rover]

might try to attempt this in nms

liset arclite 🤤

[flat current]

Where is that from

[raven rover]

Warframe

[wraith quiver]

dude i wanna find something to make fins like that

[still edge]

Oh my god zephyr's thing

[raven rover]

Yeaah

[flat current]

Ive never seen that one in wf lol

[raven rover]

Liset skin

[raven rover]

Its the zephyr deluxe skins ship

[wraith quiver]

its a reward for nighwave i think or whatever its called

[still edge]

Its from zephyr's deluxe bundle

[shadow wraith]

I'm a fan of diamond shaped ships, so here's to me finding more replicas to base off

[wraith quiver]

oh swear i saw something similar in a reward

[flat current]

I see

[still edge]

Yeah there is a liset skin from nightwave but its different

[raven rover]

might try doing this too, but im unsure about the hull shape

and the fin thingy

[still edge]

Imagine we get an update that lets us add moving parts

[raven rover]

Oh hell yes

[still edge]

Kinda like the wings on the sentinel ship

[raven rover]

Rotateable thrusters

[raven rover]

Yeahhh

[wraith quiver]

they have the absolute dumbest rotating thrusters first

[raven rover]

Man i hate the one that we have rn

Too small, i hate that they chain 2 together

[jovial mason]

too much?

[raven rover]

Give me like 1 big chonky ones

[wraith quiver]

they needed one big one to rotate in place thats it thats all

[raven rover]

Nahh just enough

[raven rover]

Like the promo pic

😭

[wraith quiver]

well i mean more of course maybe some diff sizes ones but having one rotate in place would be right

[terse kestrel]

What we need is transformable parts.

I want to build a transformer. I want to turn a taco into a flying death ray.

[still edge]

First day someone already makes a transformer

[shadow wraith]

Macross:

[terse kestrel]

I really want to make Voltron but the pieces are just are not there 😭

[raven rover]

man i lost the original file for this, but i want to recreate my ship in nms 😭

i want an actual huge rockhopper

[shadow wraith]

Looks doable, but with multiple wings

[raven rover]

wouldve been nice if there was an actual piece for it 😔

[raven rover]

I have a bunch of my own 3d models that i want to recreate, but the pieces that we have rn makes it hard to do

I think some are doable but im not going to have fun with glitching everything

😔

[wraith quiver]

trying to do remakes just pisses me off lol

[raven rover]

So real

Thats why i mostly stick to originals

[shadow wraith]

Oh, I got a great idea now

[raven rover]

But i want to recreate my originals 😭 😭 😭

Oh my gawd

[shadow wraith]

I might end up doing a ship with side ramps

[upper quartz]

btw

how do i get side/backwards ramps?

[raven rover]

front facing ramp is just by pressing E

Side ramps you gotta do the window glitch

But all of the habs will be sideways too

So you gotta connect em to the normal ones with the elevator + stairs

[upper quartz]

what elevator?

dang i gott get caught up on corvette glitches

[raven rover]

Thunderbird landing bay

Otherwise they wont be connected

The elevator is just used to open up a hole

So you can place stairs and connect the 2 habs

[distant sleet]

sometimes my corvete maneuverability is 3.4k then i log off and come back on and its 2.3k without me moving anything. So what is the real maneuverability?

[raven rover]

The real maneuverability is the friends that we met along the way.. 😔

[distant sleet]

ah so 0

[raven rover]

it always does that, shuffles the tech too sometimes

Dont worry about it too much

If youre at 3k ish its fine

🙁

[shadow wraith]

That's double of mine lmao

[fervent mist]

Land your corvette at space station and go press resume modifications on the corvette panel. Then immediately jump back out of the modify menu and the numbers will reset to what they actually are

Mine is 3500 and jumps back to 4500.8 maneuverability. Have to do this every time I load the game but it works every time

[craggy stratus]

This happens the same to me with 2.5 and 3.9 maneuverability

[still edge]

Which looks better?

[raven rover]

Right

Left is just too much

Tbh i dont really like that wing part bare like that

I gotta clip em to something

[still edge]

Same tbh

[fervent mist]

If you’re willing try to get a corvette with 4 super tech slots, preferably in a square shape and as connected as you can, depending on your preference. Adjacency super tech makes a big difference

[raven rover]

Like they look cool

But almost too much going on

Too cool

😭

[fervent mist]

You will have to sell and build over and over though to get the corvette with the super tech layout you want and then you can upgrade it and all that

[craggy stratus]

How is this??? I finally finished it now and it has all the comforts inside

[distant sleet]

wow it thanks. you fixed it

[raven rover]

loooks goood but im not feeling the dish on the front tbh

[fervent mist]

I plan on making a rail gun corvette that part

[raven rover]

Kinda makes it looks like its wearing a hat

[craggy stratus]

Same but idk what to put there

[raven rover]

Try just basic cowlings

or when in doubt :

[fervent mist]

No problem, I was obsessed with having the “most” maneuverability. After a while, I just chilled with the stats game. I one that has top stats and my other 2 corvettes are my experimental builds

Always go to corvette modifications and hop back out

[terse latch]

just picked up the atlas motorcycle. thing is wild and super small. blender vette build

[raven rover]

i got insane maneuver on mine

[craggy stratus]

Yeah I know the problem is that then it reveals is top roof wich is not really pretty

[raven rover]

ooohhhh sickkk

[craggy stratus]

Dayum

[raven rover]

i gotta try blendervette sometimes

[raven rover]

you know i was just sharing my 3d models that i want to recreate in nms

[fervent mist]

lol, I bet the ship is gigantic isn’t it

[raven rover]

using blender might help with that...

[fervent mist]

Can I do this on ps5?

[terse latch]

yes. i got it delivered using the nmsapp. u get like 8 free vette deliveries a month

[fervent mist]

That’s really cool

[fervent mist]

Nms app?

[terse latch]

its a little tricky at get on it at first, but once u figure out where the cockpit is u never forget

[raven rover]

😭

[terse latch]

this: https://nomansapp.com/
pick "corvette delivery" and u'll have to look for it

[fervent mist]

Space mansion

[still edge]

Well shit 💀

I only have 1 free tech slot

[raven rover]

[terse latch]

i like how the new atlas sphere pieces are shields

[fervent mist]

Not to be rude but is the app thing legit? I don’t want to just click on random links. Mr. Robot stuff

[raven rover]

Its legit

[fervent mist]

Sorry, just being cautious

[still edge]

I have one randomly in my ship lol

[raven rover]

Idk about the link but the nomansapp is legit

[terse latch]

cosmetically they are super cool but the shield buff is also great. love the new atlas pieces

[fervent mist]

Yeah, I’ll look up the app. Thank you. That’s how you get a spade motorcycle?

[still edge]

Random ominous ball

[fervent mist]

Space

[raven rover]

Even a star destroyer

[terse latch]

yea u can also upload ur vettes to teh app in private mode to kind of archive them and download them later

[raven rover]

Like actual huge star destroyer

[terse latch]

pretty useful since there isnt archiving vettes in vanilla NMS rn

[raven rover]

With like 3k deco parts

And i hate the guys that brought that huge thing to the anomaly

[nocturne hornet]

Anyone know a fix to this bug for corvets, using the new modules from the expedition I placed a few it (on unlimited placement) and opend my build and it’s just gone entirely not even a option

[fervent mist]

Nice, I got 3 corvettes but no more space because of my other ships so freighter is full

[raven rover]

Did you claim the blueprint???

From the quicksilver guy?

[nocturne hornet]

I think it was in my build menu before

I placed

[nocturne hornet]

Oops

Alr thanks

[terse latch]

ik the feel. i archived almost all my trad ships except the golden vector and my active ship inventory is all vettes rn

[raven rover]

You transferred over the parts from the expedition right

[still edge]

What's this?

[nocturne hornet]

Yea brought em just forgot to go to the claim from quicksilver

[fervent mist]

I will never give up my golden vector or white squid ship

[raven rover]

[terse kestrel]

The atlas Corvette parts are also like Base building parts. You got to have their materials in your inventory to craft them before you place them

[terse latch]

its a service bot app that does all kinds of stuff.

[still edge]

Like?

[raven rover]

Unlocking old exped rewards

[fervent mist]

I have 2 other exotics 2. The fancy ball ones but one has a tail and the other has like a rail gun front side? If that makes sense

[still edge]

Is it officialv

[raven rover]

downloading others corvettes

Thats has been uploaded

[terse latch]

i only found out about it bc of the corvette deliveries bc my building skills are better than avg but not pro yet. u can dl vettes

[raven rover]

I dont think so

But its legit

[still edge]

How does it work on xbox?

[terse latch]

im not sure. i think i originally found out about it thru this discord

[raven rover]

Ive seen alot of players use it

[fervent mist]

Nice, I am a terrible builder. Inside is nice but outside is… unique lol

[raven rover]

Im the opposite

[terse latch]

it supports all the consoles i think yea

[raven rover]

I focus too much on the outside

And my interiors...

[fervent mist]

Ambassador Hab is my favorite. Very clean interior look

[fervent mist]

Nice, I always liked the white interior

[terse latch]

same. i hope we get ambassador class cosmetic ship pieces like the other ones

prob a future update

[raven rover]

man

[terse latch]

looks like u got the vette bay lighting mod turned on right?

[raven rover]

Even before that

this was taken before i used that mod

[copper quarry]

why is corvette snap so god damn inconsistent

[fervent mist]

I have nip nip growing next to the vip room. That’s my second floor upstairs. Downstairs is crew beds, refiner, and a botanical hallway

[raven rover]

Yeah it does that sometimes 😔

I'd just compromise and delete stuff around it and see what part is conflicting

[raven rover]

Daaaamnn

Really cozy

[fervent mist]

Thank you, the picture doesn’t show it but it is window on both sides. Not the dome one or small window. Like a space hotel lol

[fervent mist]

Let me know if you want to game or if anyone else does. I have big corvette but no crew. We can do quicksilver missions and I have lots of cookies, stew, ribs, etc.

[copper quarry]

i know what part is conflicting its just pissing me off its not conflicting on the other side

[raven rover]

sounds like what a kidnapper would say

Im joking

[raven rover]

Aightt famm

[raven rover]

Yuppp

it is what it is 😔

[copper quarry]

also what does the game mean by the med bay needing to be wired to the airlock for full functionality

[wraith quiver]

most of the time in ship builder for me is spent staring at nothing

[raven rover]

Nothing burger

[raven rover]

Same as art tbh

I spend 3 hrs looking at a white canvas

Then spend 10 minutes scribbling

Then X

Do not save

[terse kestrel]

😎

[copper quarry]

seems to be a theme with this game

[wraith quiver]

yup

[raven rover]

[wraith quiver]

im trying to figure out how to close my ship

[raven rover]

Close?

[wraith quiver]

i wish i could just put those thermal vents vertically lol

[raven rover]

Ohj

Like cover up parts

[raven rover]

Wait you can?

[raven rover]

It just has to be on a hab tho

[wraith quiver]

oh yeah i meant without a hab

[raven rover]

Yeah sadly cannot

[wraith quiver]

glad they gave us half size pieces finally. hopefully more to come

[raven rover]

fingers crossed

[wraith quiver]

i wish more decorations could use corvette color pallete so it didnt stick out like a sore thumb

[raven rover]

Realest shiiittt

I just refrain from using em alltogether

[wraith quiver]

exactly i keep decorations inside

unless its like cargo or something that makes sense

[radiant juniper]

ok, so I am going to rapidfire some pics of my corvette interior.

this is a pic of the middle area, taken from corvette entry hatch.

[wraith quiver]

but then i like rusty ships and it doesnt look so well on the decorations that CAN be rusty.

[terse kestrel]

So I just found a new way to kidnap people.

Not quite sure if it's kidnapping.

[wraith quiver]

oh shit i have an idea now for closing it

[terse kestrel]

To be honest I would put the blame on them 😂

[radiant juniper]

this is my cargo hold (accessed from the left of the middle area)

[terse kestrel]

If somebody's exploring your ship and they go up or down a staircase delete the staircase. You now have a pet in a cage 😂

[abstract crow]

Put a message thing that says, "It puts the lotion on its skin..."

[terse kestrel]

💀

[wraith quiver]

PUT THE LOTION IN THE BASKET

[radiant juniper]

some nipnip & carbon growing (accessed from the right of the middle area)

[abstract crow]

Boom. Halloween contest winner

[terse kestrel]

Put the nip nip in the fudging basket!

[radiant juniper]

the mission room (accessed from the second floor)

[raven rover]

Ooh this one's sick

[radiant juniper]

minimalistic refining chamber right at the back of the second floor

[stray galleon]

Do we have more decorations options beside the 5-7 wall station?

[copper quarry]

Probably better than most of the ones in the Corvette category imo

[abstract crow]

The only thing scary about any of my designs is how many habs I've used and the sheer size of them. Not that I'm entering the contest anyways.

[wraith quiver]

oh im so pissed the rockhoppers havent been fixed

[shadow wraith]

Guys, I have now peaked

The funny microvette

[wraith quiver]

i love it

[shadow wraith]

Only glitched part on it is the lack of reactor and weaponry

Oh, the 90 degree part, forgot that as well

[fair pilot]

Ceto-class reactor adjacent with anything?

[shadow wraith]

Funny thing about it is that it still has 4 engines, as well as being smaller than the tumor laser mount of my other build

[glass surge]

Ceto = Shields, Azimuth = Launchers, Zenith= Warp, Medusa = Maneuverability

[fair pilot]

Yeah, but it doesn't show adjacency frame when near shield

Put it next to the corvette deflector module you have there and it will

[glass surge]

I thought you had more than one; I have 2 ceto's on this one and they only work with each other

[fair pilot]

Yeah, have only one installed.

Any way to make these things to not stick through the hub floor?

[glass surge]

no idea i don't currently use cargo links at all; maybe if there is some way of glitching it

[fair pilot]

I mean, it looks cool and I'm trying to put 1 or 2 at the bottoms sometimes, but they're broken and glitching through the floor.

[raven rover]

not as of rn

you can offset those half a block down

But that might be too much

[fair pilot]

Too much indeed.

[wraith quiver]

at some point i need to finish the story lmfao

[balmy cedar]

Wait.... Corvettes need shields?

[wraith quiver]

bought the damn game again and i miss my autophage body

[balmy cedar]

Like beyond the basic ahh one and abalative armor?

This thing has one shield module

[wraith quiver]

yeah you dont NEED them but they help

[swift surge]

There’s probably a base somewhere among the stars like that

[shadow wraith]

Ok, added a minigun on it so that it doesn't feel defenseless

[floral berry]

Colour upgrade

[shadow wraith]

I am now Cheetos flavoured

[trail hornet]

anyone madean f1 car corvette yet? i'm tempted to try but i'd need inspo

[shadow wraith]

Sadly, I can't make the high heels meme on this one, since it actually docks properly

[raven rover]

not mine

[trail hornet]

perfect.

tysm lol

[raven rover]

you could probably change up some stuff using the new parts

That ship is really old

[trail hornet]

yeah thats what i was gonna try

[raven rover]

[trail hornet]

after the new update i got some ideas

esp using the vertical cowlings

[raven rover]

Oooh yeahh

Just need something for a basis rightt?

[trail hornet]

yup

[raven rover]

Goodluck fam

[trail hornet]

gonna try making it later today after i'm done with school work

[wraith quiver]

slowcooking

[exotic spruce]

I wish I could copy a ship locally - I have my favorite ship from before BREACH and I'm afraid to touch it since it was a pain getting the base parts lined up

[distant sleet]

just bring the ship to the expedition to copy it back

[exotic spruce]

I can go back into the expedition, leave and if I have a ship slot open it'll copy it?

[fair pilot]

So my newly coocked corvette, now with offsets and rotating (obviously).
What do you think?

[distant sleet]

you go into an expedition from the space anomaly with the corvette you like as your active ship. once in the expedition you make a copy of that ship for like XXXX nanites then when you finish the expedition you can bring that corvette back to your main save with you. now you have two identical corvettes.

[fair pilot]

2800 nanites iirc.

[trail hornet]

correct iirc

lol

[exotic spruce]

I like the ship but not redoing the whole expedition all over again though - that's a bit much. :/

[fair pilot]

Main minus of the ship - it's all long, not wide inside, and not place to fit windows. 😄

[raven rover]

oooh its a long one

Me likey

[raven rover]

windows is overrated anyways

[fair pilot]

they sucks in general, but I do like the fact of the windows itself.

I mean, windows that are available in-game now.

[glass surge]

If you started the Expedition on your Main save and built that on the expedition then you would go to options > go back to primary save > go to the Anomaly > go to the expedition terminal and copy ship from expedition and as long as you have a free ship slot and the nanites on your main save it should copy over but this is only once you completed the expedition and before hitting end expedition.

If you're doing a separate Expedition save that doesn't connect to your main save maybe a save editor if you're on PC but i would make save file backups if that is the case

[exotic spruce]

Yeah I finished and ended the Expedition days ago on my main save. Thanks though!

[raven rover]

I think someone said it here

You can upload it to the nms service bot

[shadow wraith]

Meanwhile, me who copied the same Corvette I sent to the expedition over and over by just editting and renaming it:

[raven rover]

As like an archiving tool

[shadow wraith]

So now I have 4 copies of the same layout with L 4SC

[distant sleet]

i dont like any of the new corvette parts anyways so... now i got two copies of my corvette for no reason

[raven rover]

@exotic spruce

[fair pilot]

Slightly better front view,

[exotic spruce]

Thanks, I''ll read up on that

[wraith quiver]

you gonna put sails n stuff on that?

[tame idol]

i need people to start showing interiors of their corvettes more

i gotta steal some ideas

[distant sleet]

I used to have sails and a pirate flag on it but I took it off for vision purposes

[tame idol]

how to get in

The ramp is under the cockpit

this thing? i thought it is 1 floor corvette

very nice

thats an entryway

[fair pilot]

This thing, yes

[exotic spruce]

Woah, the ship upload and delivry overwrite worked! Thanks guys!

[limpid karma]

the cheese is under the sauce

[astral anchor]

If I send some photos of my ship I just made can someone give me a name for it?

[limpid karma]

probably

[astral anchor]

That's the ship

[limpid karma]

evil ass dorito

thoughts?

[astral anchor]

I am not naming my ship I spent 45 mins on after a dorito chip lol

[weak jacinth]

Inceptor?

[abstract crow]

The Dorit. - ito is small, and as that ship is larger than a dorito, it is a Dorit

Or rather, a Doro

[neon flume]

Does anyone know how to do the glitch or whatever to make the wonder projector massive? I want to cover my corvette with a projection but dont know how

[glass surge]

You'd hit z to go into base editing mode outside of corvette editing mode and basically place a wonder projector using the scaling keys on whatever platform to make it smaller or larger. Then could select anything you've added to your wonders page

You can see it in this video starting at around the 06:20 time mark
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqVlRpCOkQA

[neon flume]

This is good and he said it could be done but didnt explain how, iv tried the scaling glitch but the wonder projector wont scale for me idk what im doing wrong

[deft crag]

F-117

[fair pilot]

It probably will be absolutely unbalanced, but with general idea of corvettes I believe that we either should have the automatic turrets available, or corvettes should be noticeably slower, but has the specialized 3rd-person view to fly not in the direction of camera, and, again, turreted weapons to shoot not everything from the front, but from the sides. And be noticeably tougher.

Like, God forgive me, the destroyers in Star Conflict were.

[abstract crow]

Ah, the popular Space Battles franchise.

[tawny plume]

Real quick question, i know how to rotate those decoration panels to the side but how does rotate them up? Its for the bridge from the imperial light cruiser, i put some pictures in what i’m aiming for

[trail hornet]

no idea how to help but thats gonna be sick when its done, gl lol

[tawny plume]

Its a pain in the arse but thanks it will take time to finish

[trail hornet]

yeah i bet lmao

[shadow crown]

I agree wholeheartedly

Realistically, corvettes are so easily tunable to completely obliterate space combat's "balance" in this game

Even without save scumming for SC slots, you can max shields, weapons, etc., pretty easily, with the advantage of more customizable appearance (so while it might be harder to minxmax compared to a fighter/interceptor/etc., it won't look ugly lol)

Giving them turrets, maybe a tweak to squadron AI, and we could have more engaging space content too. Fly in to salvage a freighter or corvette wreck? There's already pirates there! Good thing you've got guns and friends

[fair pilot]

Even normal ships are easily can be broken in combat (hello infra-knife), but glitched phase beam on 'vettes is just insane.

[shadow crown]

Oh I don't even mean regarding glitches. There's just no real engaging space content in this game, despite having a push now for customizable ship building

This game would be fucking peak if it had even a splash of the depth of space combat and related activities as games like X3 (and that's over a decade old)

[fair pilot]

Freelancer, mentioned star conflict, elite, everspace...

[shadow crown]

yup

[fair pilot]

It looks so gooooood

[shadow crown]

I like the fin

Not 100% happy with this but I truly cbf to fiddle

[fair pilot]

the back one or bottom one?

[shadow crown]

The rear one pokin' up

[fair pilot]

Ha, platypus! 😄 I like your one too.

[shadow crown]

I was gonna say there's no glitches in this one but that's not actually true

There aren't offsets and stuff but there is some overlapping pieces

which I suppose isn't "intentional"

[fair pilot]

That's an Arcadia S-foil installed on a glitched (offsetted) hub that was removed after.

Overlapping pieces are fine until you not used some weird shit to overlap them.

I used aerofoil & hopper techniques for mine, and hub rotation through ladder.

[shadow crown]

I haven't messed w/ rotation at all

I do play with costs on, so designs are more limited

[fair pilot]

Yeah, acquiring needed parts is a long story.

[chilly valve]

who needs a corvette when you just have a flyable freighter 😄

[fair pilot]

xDD

[shadow crown]

See, I'd make a big ship with mods

[fair pilot]

I still prefer something that will keep mine & other players GPUs in a sane state xD

[shadow crown]

and then it'd feel shit because the game doesn't have enough depth to it in space systems

[fair pilot]

Also even my corvette has noticeable issues with landing when I'm TPing between bases...

HG give us damn mooring points finally, I tired of corvette clipping into the base and stucking me...

the games scale is actually big enough that this doesnt happen because you are not even remotely close to the biggest fish out there

[shadow crown]

...scale has nothing to do with it

Flying a big ship around that is mechanically just... worse than a little version

There's nothing to do with something big

[chilly valve]

well i mean you dont really notice any change in the depth you mentioned

[fair pilot]

Also too huge ships are a bit hard to make, uh, looking whole, and not as mess of parts.

[shadow crown]

Depth as in mechanical depth

[shadow crown]

5 or 6 habs already makes a corvette feel like there's redundancies

[chilly valve]

well yeah but thats NMS it isnt exactly "deep"

[shadow crown]

Right, and that's what I'm saying lol

[chilly valve]

🤷‍♂️

[shadow crown]

I don't see the purpose in building something big because I'm not playing the game solely as a "build pretty thing" sim

[chilly valve]

still fun to fly a battlecruiser around

ah yeah i mostly base build and explore , corvettes just got added to that list really

[shadow crown]

and again, I play with costs on

so I'm not spending 50 hours of materials on something that is, for all intents and purposes, a flying part storage

[hardy oracle]

A good planet can get you a corvette part every 10-20 seconds. I can't imagine any ship requiring 50 hours of gathering to make.

[shadow crown]

I'm not even going to bother discussing the concept of hyperbole, nor the immense scale that we're talking about, but 10-20 seconds per part is not 10-20 seocnds per specific part you want

So saying "you get on average 4 parts per minute" is a claim which is immediately unhelpful when we talk about specific needs 👍

[hardy oracle]

Is someone forcing you to make big ships? What are you even complaining about?

[chilly valve]

they arent complaining , just explaining why they prefer smaller corvettes

although with a level of practicality that seems counterproductive to "gaming" or "having a good time" but , to each their own

[shadow crown]

Damn the idea of discussion is a lost art

[chilly valve]

it really is

and debating

[wanton radish]

give this man a true

[shadow crown]

I mean if you play on creative that's a decision

but I don't, for example, because it makes things feel better

[chilly valve]

of course , i dont

[wanton radish]

does creative give us unlimited corvette aprts?

[chilly valve]

yes

[shadow crown]

I'm sure at some point I'll have a billion nanites and parts so I do whatever big things I want because I've got functionally unlimited resources

[chilly valve]

but you can be on normal and turn cost off too which does the same thing

[chilly valve]

thats me at the moment , 700hr save file

[shadow crown]

For all intents and purposes, in my mind I equate creative to the normal+no costs

I know they ain't the same but without any costs, they might as well be lol

[wanton radish]

damn.....i should have done that when i wanted to make other fictional ship for fun.....I scavenged for so long XDD
