[raven rover]

what angle am i looking at

front?

[real delta]

front yes

[raven rover]

might be possible

im not sure honestly

[real delta]

And that would be with foils

[raven rover]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

That made it a lot clearer

yeah should work

[real delta]

i think im going to take the lazy way out though

tell me more about this mod. i am intrigued.

[raven rover]

Top view

You can only rotate the windows that way right?

Locked to horizontal rotation

[real delta]

correct

[raven rover]

You cannot do that rotation right

[raven rover]

Side view

[random zinc]

I need some tricks to hide the blocky shape of habs. Anyone have pointers?

[raven rover]

Vanilla does not let you do that

That mod enables you to do that

[real delta]

downloading it as we speak king 💪

[raven rover]

here is what it would look like if you used the mod

It also lets you place actual base parts on your corvette

Like an teleporter, wood floor, walls etc2

[real delta]

does it also remove the build limit lol

[balmy cedar]

Wow

All this stuff a console gamer could only dream of

[raven rover]

No

[balmy cedar]

Perhaps there is a master race

[raven rover]

Thats another mod

[balmy cedar]

Perhaps it's PC

[raven rover]

😭 😭 😭

[balmy cedar]

The PC master race

[raven rover]

lets you do shit like this

[real delta]

i already have a mod for that. very sad it's not built in and i need 2 :(

[raven rover]

Yeah..

[real delta]

oh my lord what am i looking at

[balmy cedar]

I'm in vanilla

[random zinc]

A teleporter on a corvette would be aces, but I would be afraid of future patches breaking mod-builds

[raven rover]

Base portal

[real delta]

okay silly question. how do i know if the mod worked lmao

[raven rover]

lets you place freighters stuff too

[raven rover]

your on ground build menu should have base building parts

[loud sonnet]

Not sure where to put this, but I'm hoping we get these into the game. The image is just a reference, but you all know where I'm going with it

[real delta]

i'm a freak who is manually modding, i'm not using amumms or whatever it's called or lua stuff

[loud sonnet]

Corvette landing pad

[raven rover]

I do mine manually too

[raven rover]

Yeah we all want an actual pad for our corvettes

[real delta]

do you have just the EXML?

[raven rover]

anyways, fellow GOTG fan

[real delta]

does this file path seem correct or am i missing something

cuz it aint workin

[random zinc]

I'm relatively happy with a teleporter near ground level facing away from the base. The corvette lifts off as you teleport in.

[real delta]

i mean it looks perfectly in place with all the other mods but i dont think it's working

[raven rover]

I think you downloaded the wrong thing

thats the file name

[real delta]

sorry i renamed it already (and also highlighted the wrong mod lol)

[raven rover]

oh

[real delta]

did you keep just the EXML or did you keep the lua and anmummymososo whatever

[raven rover]

I extracted the thing, took the 1 folder inside

Did not change anything else

[real delta]

huh thats weird

in my experience keeping a lua file cooked the entire thing and the game wouldnt launch anymore

[raven rover]

Try rotating the windows

By pressing MMB

[real delta]

hold on im launching the game now with the mod reinstalled

[raven rover]

If it works you should be able to change the axis

[raven rover]

Hmm thats what ive always done for my mods

Extract, took the 1 folder

Just dropped it in the mods folder

Boom

[real delta]

do you also fiddle with save editing? i tend to modd things i also save edit so thats probs it

[raven rover]

I do save edit too

Both worked fine

I use the goatfungus one

[real delta]

nvm mod works now, ty.

[raven rover]

🙏

Now try rotating the windows vertically

Should work

[real delta]

ye it worked :3

[raven rover]

While youre at it, try just rotating it until its upside down

[real delta]

do i always have to rotate a window first?

[raven rover]

Im actually curious now too

[real delta]

or can i just directly rotate parts

[raven rover]

Still have to do this

[real delta]

no. just tried it.

[raven rover]

Like it just stops?

[real delta]

yeah

[raven rover]

well then

[real delta]

wait hang on so it can do horizontal easily but how do i flip it?

[raven rover]

Cant flip it

You have to move to the other side

[real delta]

ooh

[pseudo shore]

Hey guys is it possible to delete a corvette i don't want anymore

[real delta]

nah you gotta sell it to an npc

trade in the corvette for their ship then sell theirs

[pseudo shore]

Ohh right okay thank you

[raven rover]

then, would that work for the upside down foils?

front view, green is the actual top of the hab

[real delta]

i dont think so?

i dont really understand the diagram sorry

[raven rover]

lemme do the thing

brb

[real delta]

kk

@real delta

ayy

i mightve placed the hab backwards but it does work

[real delta]

woah! how did you do it?

[raven rover]

see the windoes

windows

If you dont mind waiting, i can record a quick vid

[real delta]

yes i am fine waiting. please do.

[raven rover]

🙏

[real delta]

i can really only seem to do it horizontally

[celest skiff]

There's a whole crazy world out there of building that im oblivious of 🙀

[hardy harbor]

Is green wth red stripe in middle something I pull out of subconsciousness? I see other people painting corvette same way <.<

But I don't remeber any cartoon ships colored like that. Plain green, red or orange was typical

With one case of pik but we don't have pink 😛

[raven rover]

@real delta i done goofed and made the new one extra crooked but you get the point 😂

[real delta]

thank you so much man you have been a huge help

[raven rover]

🙏

[real delta]

Are my windows supposed to be invisible though?

it's kinda hard to position them

[terse kestrel]

I'm imagining Sean Murray running into the office one morning last year with this photo and telling the team that this is what they will be focusing on for the foreseeable future

[raven rover]

wait why is yours invisible

[raven rover]

LMAO

[terse kestrel]

"I had a dream"

[raven rover]

Shouldnt be invisible if you have the mod

[real delta]

idk... thats why i have been struggling to position them properly

[raven rover]

does your on ground build menu have these?

[real delta]

uuh no

[raven rover]

if not then

GG

its not workin

[real delta]

oh

dawg

i forgot to unzip it

[raven rover]

😭

[real delta]

lel

[terse kestrel]

💀

[real delta]

it works now :3

[raven rover]

Noiceee

[real delta]

turns out the mod functions correctly when you dont accidently delete half of it and properly unzip it

[raven rover]

LMAO

well then, goodluck with your ship

You know, i once wanted to build that too

i got friggin stuck at the upright prongs

I didnt know any glitchbuilding back then

😭 😭 😭

Also i think you dont have to compromise with the foils anymore

[real delta]

hmm yeah

[raven rover]

Might be tedious lining up the windows to make it X shaped

But the end product is probably going to be much better

[abstract crow]

Now I just need to grind out the expedition so I can take a shot at an Atlas corvette.

[loud sonnet]

Hopefully next update from an unexpected news of a new expedition...

[hoary agate]

Time will tell

[cunning surge]

Atlas or normal corvette, which do you like better?

[swift mist]

mostly normal with sparingly placed atlas parts

[fossil dome]

how can i improve my 3rd ever corvette

[cobalt harbor]

the fart fighter

[swift mist]

improve how? in terms of stats?

[fossil dome]

no design

[swift mist]

you did a nice job defining a shape for it

would need to see the back though

it looks really boxy with all the habs

[fossil dome]

thats the worst bit

[fossil dome]

can u like point out which habs make it especially boxy

[swift mist]

the top ones on the sides

[fossil dome]

these?

[swift mist]

yes

[fossil dome]

idk how to fix that

[swift mist]

you can smooth it out with sloped pieces

or build out engines on there

[lapis swan]

Just a quick question on the Corvette ships. Other than the ability to construct them, what else are they good for? I've been out for a while and just noticed these ships. Thanks ahead of time.

[terse ingot]

Well, having a base that you can fly around with is pretty useful imo

Having things like refiners, etc. directly with you

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

[swift mist]

also you can just park floating above the surface of a planet and jump out

gotta be my favorite feature

[exotic spruce]

or an anchor point for bases where the ship will hover above it say 30 units and drop the teleport beacon there

[terse kestrel]

This is why we need to be able to build our own exocraft and attach base parts to them.

Imagine calling a mobile base down to any planet

[terse ingot]

i didnt even change anything about the corvette from the last finalisation and it says this

do decoration parts placed in normal build mode also count for this?

[terse kestrel]

They can. Because sometimes decorations will get added to the Corvette build. They were counting against your 100-part limit. But they at least made that go away.

You can test it by trying to delete decorations on foot. If it doesn't allow you to do it then that means the Corvette has absorbed it and you can only delete it in the Corvette building menu

Wonder projectors become part of the Corvette build all the time

[buoyant shard]

Hey, I have a really weird question,
Does anyone know a way to get my corvette stuck underwater without it floating up immediately?
Bcs I want to use a glitch to place a nautilon chamber on my corvette, so I tried warping ot a base underwater but the corvette keeps floating upwards. I also waited for a storm hoping a wave would be large enough to allow me to place the chamber, but again it doesn't work
So if anyone got their ship stuck underwater, please tell me how you did it

I started this talk in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/471868642204712971 if you want to know what we tried already

this is my corvette and i gotta find a way to submerge it for an extended period of time

[warm breach]

omfg i finally did it

[limpid karma]

you mean the thing that spawns the submarine?

i thought it floats and moves around

wouldnt it, even if you did get it on your ship, just slip right off?

[warm breach]

and right after i got this i got a 1% trade offer accepted 👍

[buoyant shard]

(sorry for late response)
yes, but there's two of them, there's the platform and the geobay, one floats like you said, the other is fixated on the ground (like the roamer geobay (or other vehicle's))

[limpid karma]

weird

[terse ingot]

thanks, it was a space station billboard thingy

[night blaze]

Anyt Republic Cruiser fans out there?

[shadow crown]

I don't know if you can, especially after the fix to vettes and base tps

Though even then I'm pretty sure they didn't get stuck underwater like regular ships

[night blaze]

Just getting started on this. My first ambitious corvette project

[buoyant shard]

the bug still exists (i managed to attach a colossus geobay on it (check the image)
I just need a way to keep it still underwater long enough

[buoyant shard]

looks really nice

i'd add something up front (like arcadia boosters or smth that give kind of the same vibe) or maybe a thruster attached to the tip, but it's yours to decide, your corvette, your design

[night blaze]

thanks! Still blocking everything in, focusing more on making the prominent shapes first, then moving on to smaller details

there's a few things missing up front, ik what you're talking ab

just need to finish the rear thruster shape and it's time for details

[buoyant shard]

YEAH

[night blaze]

first time utilizing glitch building to it's full potential too, way more time consuming than I had anticipated

[tame patio]

I recreated what I built yesterday in my main save, it got Chosh as it's automatic name on that one and I cannot leave it out, it's forever a Chosh.

[glad snow]

There's no option to change camera angle in third person is there?

[tame patio]

I don't think there is, if you cannot see them rip.

[raven rover]

You can look around tho

If ur on pc press alt

[glad snow]

Does that work for third person. It allows you to look around correct?

[raven rover]

Yes

[shadow crown]

Yeah I mean I think the bug made it not stay under

[sullen mesa]

You can submerge it??

[buoyant shard]

that's what i'm trying to do, at least

[buoyant shard]

exactly

[shadow frigate]

cant decide if this top side is visually too busy or not. Also no sure about the blue sphere inside the circle. wish there was a way to get the aeron sheld generator in there.

[night blaze]

managed to make almost a perfect cylinder lmao

pretty happy with it though

[buoyant shard]

the blue spheres look good (red would look better), but it's both too busy and too sleek at the same time, try mixing things up a bit (the front/sides are really smooth and the middle is really busy)

[night blaze]

you can also use those free-rotation panels so cover what you dont like

[buoyant shard]

a way you could fix it is by having a depth difference between the busy and sleek parts

[buoyant shard]

oohhh, that cylinder looks really nice

[night blaze]

❤️

[buoyant shard]

I would recommend not using habitation modules as a filler, use either cheap blocks or nothing (1:for the complexity limit 2: so you don't end up with a lot of empty space)

[shadow frigate]

had it like this previously, but wanted to add some flare with the new parts. I understand it being sleek and busy at the same time, but I also want it to be interesting to look at so idk

although now looking at it side by side this earlier version does seem more cohesive

[sour kelp]

so im looking for a cool effect to put in between my ship and its linked floating nacelle. I found these cool bubbles on a foaming planet, mayeb they are cavitations in space time caused by the link... idk
Does anyone know of any other cool findable deco that might work for this?

[glass surge]

I would suggest using filler blocks but only to help place other parts and then deleting them especially if they're not going to be visible or functional; that way you have the extra part limit for more important functional modules

[shadow frigate]

That is a really nice idea. I like it alot.

[glass surge]

You can scan, anything add it to your wonders, and then use the wonder projector probably

[sour kelp]

those lights on the link are wonder projectors but their image clips poorly at the size they need to be. But ill look around 🙂

rn they dont project anything

[glass surge]

well you can size them up or down but there is also apparently a glitch to make the projectors giant size but i'm not even sure where to find that glitch

[buoyant shard]

i do prefer the newer version tho

I think having more atlas parts/red light coming from 'inside' the ship would look better

[shadow frigate]

the thing with all the atlast parts is they are all too large. I did use the trim parts, but on the bottom side.

dont really fit the size of this ship well

[stiff cloak]

I wanna make this thing look a little more 40k, any advice ?

[sullen mesa]

My vanilla survival build, I did use some offsets and reverse techniques but no glitches, or mods. Just exploits with the snap points etc.

[exotic spruce]

loooking good, maybe white with rust or corrosion? I know there was a cathedral corvette made during the early days of the last expedition when corvettes were just released - might have to check google or the NMS service bot?

[stiff cloak]

yeah, thats what gave me some inspo. i can't for the life of me work out how to get that big old ram like front end on the corvette

[sullen mesa]

in creative there is a technique where you can flip habs horizontal to give more snap points, that might work for you

[shadow crown]

Aren't offsets and reversing parts glitches

[exotic spruce]

Following programming is how ATLAS || ended up with 16 minutes left || maybe it needs some out of the box thinking like... glitches?

[glass surge]

Here's a 41 minute video someone did on 40K style ships with a full parts list; it probably uses glitch techniques so it might take longer to build but it might give you ideas
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y-tq38IBqs

[sullen mesa]

No, they don't require button mashing or any other odd techniques. Just using specific parts to make more snap points available.

[stiff cloak]

damn dude thank you

[idle canopy]

why do the plants on the standing planter sometimes disappear in your corvette

[novel torrent]

lol it’s a trap , “ points at plant “

But that is strange

[idle canopy]

yeah very

[autumn olive]

How do you add tech to corvettes and how much does it cost to get one to S class? And when you upgrade does it generate new tech slots or do base stats just rise?

[small stirrup]

How can I do the same thing?

[swift mist]

when i had plants growing on my living walls, the plants on the standing planters were no longer visible

[idle canopy]

i fucking suspected it

as soon as i placed that shit down all the plants were gone
thought it was just a coincidence

[idle canopy]

they're back now
thanks

[swift mist]

sacrifices have to be made

[exotic spruce]

I'm sure the radiation will be fine.

[glass surge]

Tech or tech slots? You pretty much get the get tech slots with the blue storage augmentation and by selecting the tech area when applying them or you can set the crafting to free in the game difficulty setting and dot it that way.

It cost a total of 85,000 nanite's to get from C class to S class at the following increments 10k, 25k, 50k.

Class increase for corvettes i think increases base stats only

[idle canopy]

unfortunately

[idle canopy]

"Radiation protection falling"

[autumn olive]

Oh thank you! That answered everything! I appreciate it.

[glass surge]

just feed it more ion batteries what could possibly go wrong

[crude minnow]

How do you turn off the snapping while building a corvette

[abstract crow]

You don't

Unless you can cheese that in your base

[glass surge]

That's the thing, you don't ; If you're on PC you can probably mod and do crazy things out side of that

[real trench]

Is there anyway to build a hab/walkway at 90º? (They always want to default to lengthways down the space station, rather than across)

[abstract crow]

There's a vid in the pins, I'm sure

[glass surge]

there is a video pinned to this channel for 90 degree habs

[night blaze]

coming together so nicely

could have gotten more accurate with spacing on the thrusters if i upscaled, but I really wanted to build it atr player scale

the bigger it is the easier it is to replicate

[glass surge]

Bigger scale would mean mods

[abstract crow]

Big is fun.

[night blaze]

anyone know a method for smaller cylinder propellers?

[shadow frigate]

how about this? Changed the reality simulator for the red sphere and added few red lights inside. has that nice red glow now

[shut tusk]

can someone link me to a guide for making corvette parts vertical?

[glass surge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dfdj2-5yq_s

[shut tusk]

is that the only tech? there isnt a mehod thats more exact?

[glass surge]

I personally don't use that technique so i don't know if there is a more exact technique or technique that doesn't use mods : I'd look up post in this channel by zycrom as they've done vertical ship builds or check find as many post as you can on reddit or youtube.

[shut tusk]

thanks

@raven rover if you're around today and have a min hit me up please

ill keep digging

[autumn olive]

What’s the technique for using decals to paint your corvette a wider variety of colors?

[night blaze]

leaving it off at this, time for work lol

[fervent mist]

That’s really good 👍

[autumn olive]

My current build. Wish it had more interior space. I figure I could size it up as I get more habs and just stagger more ambassador rocket wings

[green ginkgo]

Sorry if this has been asked a lot! I’m just now discovering that the range finder is not in “main game”.
How do I find corvette parts to barter for other parts on a station? I’ve completed the expedition and am trying to build a corvette on main save.

[shadow frigate]

Search for planets with salvageable scrap and collect those. Find a planet with alot of them. When you see 5 or more sites in the scanner view at one place. Then just tag one and go shoot at it with your corvette weapons

Its quite fast once you get the hang of it.

[green ginkgo]

Thank you! I will try that 🙂

[sour kelp]

Found a machine orb life-form that was just the right size

[shadow frigate]

beautiful

I really like the un-symmetrical design. How does it affect the maneuvrability? Ive noticed whenever i build something this off symmetry it just handles so bad.

[sour kelp]

it doesnt affect it really, the camera angle is very "flying the Millennium Falcon" but its fun.

the ships center line is just to the pilot's left of the cockpit

[sour kelp]

you can see the centerline easily here

[limpid karma]

is this inspired or of your own design

[fair pilot]

Moment when supermegagigacorvette lands on anomaly and not even loading.

[mossy widget]

I don't feel like it's quite finished yet, am I missing anything?

[exotic spruce]

I think you need some red colors

[night blaze]

These are cool!

[night blaze]

I was trying to recreate a Republic Cruiser from Star Wars. You might be familiar with the Radiant VII

I’ve seen some people recreate them but I personally wasn’t stoked with their designs so I decided to wing it. Ha..

[fossil prairie]

it gets more Super charged slots, the stats rise also. Its 10k nanites for C to B, then 25k for B to A, and 50K for A to S. Is Expensive. If you find a curious deposit, build a base there and keep coming back, you gonna get tons of running away mold and thats a nanite mine basically

[south geyser]

Is there a way to completely dismantle a corvette ?

[tranquil oracle]

see a lot of these, thought id get mine in 🙂

[tranquil oracle]

not completely, best way is to trade it to ai at space station

[south geyser]

I need all the parts I can get , I have two storage units full already , but I want all the parts off my current corvette aswell as I have a big project I wanna try

[south geyser]

Ahh, I wanted the parts from it

[tranquil oracle]

iv not found a way yet

[south geyser]

I just thought of a way actually , I’m gonna put all my current parts in the corvette cache in the station , then edit my corvette , completely dismantle it then I’ll have all the stashed parts aswell as the dismantled parts to use

[tranquil oracle]

it doesnt let you out of the terminal without some form of working ship.

[fossil prairie]

you could dismantle it as much as you can so the game let you save it with less parts as possible

[south geyser]

Yeah I’ve accounted for that , but you can save modifications for later however

[south geyser]

So I’m gonna completely dismantle it in the builder then rebuild it how I want it , and if I need to get more parts from my storage I can save the modifications for a later date

[fervent mist]

A tutorial

[south geyser]

“How many engines do you want”
“Yes”
Looks wicked dude

[cobalt harbor]

anything for those S freighter upgrade modules

[south geyser]

I made mine too big , it doesn’t fit down the tunnels anymore 😂

[night blaze]

Anyone know of a workaround for bypassing Corvette complexity limits?

Didn’t think this far ahead 😭

Literally only need like 10-15 more slots

[swift mist]

unless you have 15 windows that you can instead place in the interior build mode, you need a mod

[night blaze]

😔

I know there’s a mod for it which was last updated for the voyager update, curious if would still work

I’m also wondering if I download the mod to finalize the build, and remove it afterwards, if it would save my corvette with the additional parts 🤔

Really hate to use mods but if that’s the only way, then whatever

[exotic spruce]

when I messed with that one a long time ago I think I was able to do that, but after removing the mod it told me modules had to be attached to the corvette until I dropped to 100 or less - give it a shot and let us know. 👼

[night blaze]

I’ll post an update as soon as I have an answer 👍🏼

Do you know if having a mod installed prevents cross play, or even multiplayer in general?

[merry current]

Should I be worried if I walk out of the house and see this above me?

[exotic spruce]

only if your tetanus shot is due for a boost

[night blaze]

I hate that my tiny ass republic cruiser exceeded complexity limit but this massive space scraper is totally good 😭

[exotic spruce]

I use the Beyond Bases mod and have multiplayer turned on just fine

[night blaze]

Those massive parts definitely eat more ram

[merry current]

It's actually small compared to my pirate ship

Don't build any glass panels or anything until you are done with the ship

[night blaze]

Havent. I’m familiar with that trick

I just used a lot of complicated techniques to shape it out

And now I gotta rework it all

I could definitely shorten it by a few pieces

If there’s a will there’s a way, and my name is William

[merry current]

Ahhh
I don't know any of the new glitch techniques for the corvettes

[night blaze]

But devs, if you’re skimming this chat right now, PLEASE add like 10-20 more to the limit 😂

I’m sure the community would approve

[nimble stirrup]

[exotic spruce]

it's something like draw part_id with color_codes and scale_code at X.Y.Z coords - the netcode is simple enough; it's the client machine that decides if it's gonna barf. Having more than 100 means a lot more info is being sent, not how to draw the item with total polygons for the model.

[fervent mist]

If I want to make a Corvette do I need to find a space station?

[exotic spruce]

the skull is my favorite part of that pic

[merry current]

Ty

[nimble stirrup]

yes

[fervent mist]

Ty

[rough hazel]

This is not mine, just something I saw in the anomaly.

just now, coincidentally. I just noticed the other ship just above, lol

[fossil prairie]

Oooh so there’s where I parked my car 😆!!!

[fossil prairie]

man, how is that, yesterday I saw a massive corvette with the shape of a double tailed scorpion, it was bloody massive, it was at the anomaly, I took some screenshots, Ill share them

[fossil prairie]

yes, on every space station

[night blaze]

Makes me wonder how they managed to make that work

[fervent mist]

Ty

[night blaze]

Actually that pirate ship might be under 100, there’s a lot of windows on it too

And the panels you can rotate, don’t think those even count towards the limit

[night blaze]

I hope you think my idea is super awesome and cool, and that you also wish to see it happen in the foreseeable future 😀

cough

[nimble stirrup]

[abstract depot]

Has anyone made Breath of the wild divine beasts corvettes yet?

[brittle vapor]

Uggggg stop stealing my ideassssss 😂

[balmy cedar]

Hey man

Good ideas are good ideas

[mild stratus]

I was in the anomaly and I saw a pirate ship parked in the normal ship area lmao thing took up most of the landing areas

[swift mist]

do people do that intentionally?

i've never seen it in-game myself

[fossil prairie]

The double tailed scorpion I saw at the Anomaly

the photos are a bit dark though

[floral berry]

I wanna keep building corvettes but I’m on the part grind

Also, we still need a way to completely dismantle corvettes

Wait

[celest hill]

When yall build your corvettes, do you find space to put all 10 cargo containers in it? I thought about just having 1 dedicated cargo container for my Corvette too

[abstract crow]

Pre-mods, my large designs easily fit all the cargo containers.

[sour kelp]

i usually put only 1 or 2, my frieghter has all 10

[celest hill]

Wuts that :/

[abstract crow]

Stuff

[exotic spruce]

refiner and all 10 cargo containers shrunk down

[lusty light]

u can shrink to fit?

i mean obv you did it, but is that a normal feature?

[exotic spruce]

only with mod

[lusty light]

ah darn

[abstract crow]

But you should still be able to fit all 10. You'd just have to add more habs as a tradeoff

[exotic spruce]

until I started using it yeah I'd add extra habs for cargo

[pseudo forge]

Jeff?

[merry current]

Don't know a Jeff

[pseudo forge]

Sorry to ping you then.

[glossy flicker]

how does my ship look

[rugged compass]

I have 3-4. I renamed them so they make sense. Mainly for deep storage of salvaged scrap and some odds and ends.

[lament flame]

looks like I got back sooner than expected
(current ship design: Small Corvette)
Atlas probe -
Shitbox -
Stealth Drone -
will check in tmrw

[pale kiln]

Neither decorated, nor painted yet. Freighter and player for scale

[real warren]

So I am trying to figure out how to glitch a teleport into my corvette. Someone in game told me you can attach walls to your base and bring them into your corvette , but that doesn't seem to worka anymore. Thoughts?

[sour kelp]

i found some better fauna to use as projections, and dramatically improved the link effect. theres lots of electrical arcing and even extra energy trails.

[real trench]

I've installed three zenith reactors and three Medusa's, but only two of the latter are showing up in the tech slots?

Tried removing all of them, saving, and then putting them back without any changge

[sour kelp]

here she is whole, i added Ambassador interiors to better fit the swept design and exotic tech.

[willow lichen]

Is it safe to do multiplayer with corvettes? It’s just that I’m mainly a solo player

[real trench]

How'd you mean "safe"?

[willow lichen]

Like can they edit corvette props?

[real trench]

No

[trail hornet]

not unless you change a setting i think

[willow lichen]

Ok! I do apologize.

[trail hornet]

huh

[real trench]

you've got nothing to apologise for?

[willow lichen]

I apologize for being suspicious of multiplayer and the safety of my corvettes that use props

[mild stratus]

You need to place 3 medusas before you put a cockpit down

[real trench]

Yeah, I'd come to the conclusion it was cockpit related. Makes sense, thanks

[abstract crow]

Unless you're like me, your corvette probably won't cause too many issues. My new ship will never see the anomaly. Probably never a meet up either

[agile hamlet]

Too bad putting down medusas wouldn't unlock snake corvette parts for the exterior. 😎

[grizzled phoenix]

I can't tell how big it is.
Could you maybe include a *banana" for scale? I don't know how big a freighter is. 😢

[mild heart]

is it possible to delete a corvette yet?

[real trench]

Is there no way to rectify it? I've tried deleted all the medusa's and the cockpit and putting them down in order, plus switching to a different cockpit

[real trench]

one of those cylinderical freighter cargo things is about 1.5×-2× as long as your average non-Corvette ship

[terse kestrel]

Once you do it once your cockpit will always be in your tech. It basically creates a slot for it you can't put a reactor into anymore

It's dumb

But don't over think it. The small difference is only a concern for number crunching min/maxers

[glass surge]

There is no current way to delete or scrap a corvette.

You have to strip your existing Corvette down to the bare essentials: 1 each of the following hab, cockpit, exit bay, reactor, landing pad, thruster, and weapon.

You then trade it with a NPC ship of hopefully a high value (i recommend a hauler closer to the value of the corvette parts you don't like ) and then scrap that ship to regain your ship slot and get some Units back but you still lose those parts.

Don't like this method? go write HG a suggestion letter

[real warren]

So I take it glitching teleports into your vette is no longer possible?

tried to follow some youtube videos on it and it isn't working for me

[glass surge]

I tried adding the base teleports but i'm not sure how they work in station or you need to do it on your base with the corvette; if it doesn't work anymore creators should rename their video at least

[real warren]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEqbyFclhjc

Ya that was the video I was following. Cause someone was looking at me corvette and showed me their flying saucer that had a TP in it.

looked cool

[grizzled phoenix]

I'm sorry I wasn't clear, I was trying to make a joke. Including a banana for scale was a joke

But I would like to say it is a very cool ship

[real trench]

Yeah, I thought that was possible (even likely), but poe's law

[raven rover]

I use mods to make mine vertical sadly

[grizzled phoenix]

Never heard of that, but I just looked it up and it makes sense

[raven rover]

There used to be another method

Settlement glitching

But thats borked rn

Since the corvettes dont land anymore

They hover

[shut tusk]

what mod?

[raven rover]

@shut tusk

[shut tusk]

i use that already, how do you rotate parts with it?

[raven rover]

Thats how it basically works

I didnt rotate it vertically but you get the point

MMB to change the axis

[shut tusk]

im at a space station now building, i dont have that option

[raven rover]

When youre trying to place the windows

Is it invisible or does it have a preview

If its invisible then the mod is not working

[shut tusk]

what about windows?

[raven rover]

See this video for reference

Cant rotate parts

You rotate the window to place a hab

[shut tusk]

ah cool thanks

[raven rover]

🙏

[glass surge]

There was a patch note that Xaine's world covered that goes like this in the patch notes for the breach expedition announcement "Fixed a rare issue that could cause corvette assembly data to be replaced with planetary base data."

Apparently this allowed you to build planetary base parts on a corvette and even beedlebum said this could glitch your save and the reason why it was patched.

[raven rover]

Its still not exact tho but you can fiddle with it

Afaik there is no way to do that exactly vertical

[real warren]

roger that.

[raven rover]

But you can get pretty damn close

[real warren]

Maybe they will make a TP part for corvettes in the future.

[raven rover]

[shut tusk]

@raven rover I can place rotated windows and get habs on the snap point but theyre always red, is there a trick?

[raven rover]

uh afaik no

Sometimes it just does that

Kinda weird

Move a bit

[shut tusk]

ah figured it out, it doesnt work with the window on a walkway need a full hab

[raven rover]

ahh

ive always used the double habs

[shut tusk]

well thats awesome ive been looking for a method to do this, now i just need to find visual cues to get as close as 90 as possible

thanks again

[raven rover]

like this was weird

probably too close to the build edge limit tho

[raven rover]

🙏 goodluck man!

[glass cloak]

Is there ANY way to make these chair do anything except spin? I know a few different seats in the game can actually be sat on, but they don't look right for this build.

[night blaze]

For anyone wondering- the Corvette part limit mod DOES work on the current patch

managed to squeeze two reactors per engine, kinda pointless but something about this is extremely satisfying

they're in the best place possible

[lusty ravine]

Its crab

[lusty ravine]

Im naming it Pearl

[grizzled phoenix]

First thing I thought of

[midnight sedge]

they figure out a way to see what modules are not connected yet?

[glass cloak]

Lemme ask you. You think I should keep the seamless windows on that lower level, or switch to the round ones? That's the passenger deck.

[marsh epoch]

i wish we got atlas hubs, the current ones doesn't fit the new atlas decorations much

[night blaze]

Which guns do yall think fit better? Left or right. Or one of each? Right one kinda looks like a little droid head

[marsh epoch]

One of each is pretty nice imo

[floral berry]

I always get too ambitious😭

This part limit is killing me

[midnight sedge]

hmmm, nevermind.

putting that on a spot that can and does take it......makes it not connected.....

[glass surge]

Then refine your design or get to modding if you're on PC.

You could probably move those wings closer and it would look better also why is there a space between the hab and the hull link in the mid section when you can move that back or redo it so it uses less parts

[floral berry]

I did😔
I wish I was on pc

[floral berry]

Didn’t want it to be too short just didn’t put a block there yet

[grizzled phoenix]

I feel like the seamless look good from the outside but the round look good from the inside. I would go round

[glass surge]

No they haven't and if you want that as a feature then contact HG here https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

If you connect something to a glitched in part and it gives you not connected it means it could have moved something or you may need to just move the glitched part slightly and back to make it work in which case you need to be careful depending upon what you did to move it there.

I've had to move parts or put back in temporary filler pieces to do this sometimes and i'm sure it won't be the last

[balmy cedar]

No idea. I use couches myself

What more could I do to this?

[agile hamlet]

It looks like an airship with another ship as the blimp part. 😎

[balmy cedar]

Indeed

It's an airship with atlas parts bolted on

[balmy cedar]

Here's the top down

[agile hamlet]

How many parts do have there? (Corvette only, no base part count)

[pseudo charm]

@raven rover look at this:

and I thought my ship was big. heh

[glass surge]

The anti aliasing staircase on those edges kills me, may want to put a warning label for passengers

[floral berry]

It’s not the size that matters

[pseudo charm]

oh you sure? heh. my god. that guys's ship gotta be at least 4 or 5 parking spaces!

[floral berry]

He’s got at least 2 room

[raven rover]

Is that roadworthy's ship?

im sure ive seen it before...

[pseudo charm]

Tatos 2 Immortal. he's in the hub at the moment

[raven rover]

Ahhh

Ah its a different ship

[pseudo charm]

...jesus christ. WHY

I mean WHY that.

[raven rover]

Its a whole ass cruiser 😭

Sick build

[pseudo charm]

yeah will blow up any civilized system it goes near tho!

[raven rover]

[glass surge]

calls up the Empire to check their ship registry

[pseudo charm]

@raven rover Mitey still happy piloting THIS thank you. 🙂 even redid the cargo space.. again..

[raven rover]

🙏

The silhouette is so good

[fair breach]

ngl itd be awesome if you could vertically flip corvette cockpits ( wouldnt flip controls )

[pseudo charm]

I actually considered tryin to just slightly tillt the nacelles like the tv show when it goes to warp.. then thought "why are you messin with it?"

[glass surge]

if it works, it works

[pseudo charm]

....400.. parts?

Z!

Zeee!!!

[raven rover]

Hell yeah 🗣️ 🔥

WHAT the FRENCH.

Thats just a guess

Might be more might be less

Im thinking more

[pseudo charm]

whcih means its more..

[raven rover]

[pseudo charm]

oh Z. I am facepalming so hard right now!

[raven rover]

At least it didnt crash your game

[pseudo charm]

..Z. SMH. quit TRYING to crash the game!

[raven rover]

I wasnt trying to 😭

[pseudo charm]

i already ran outta advil tryin to build my ship!

[raven rover]

I even asked pablo if it was fine going to your place with that build

[pseudo charm]

but son.. you KNEW there was a 100 parts limit! 🙂

[raven rover]

Rules are meant to be broken

[pseudo charm]

oh so you asked the OTHER guy who also has a ship with 400 parts..

[raven rover]

Anyways, wasnt trying to ruin anyones game with that

[pseudo charm]

Rules are meant to keep you SAFE

[raven rover]

Didnt bring mine to anomaly too

[pseudo charm]

this dude in that picture.. HE DID

I immediately said "okay thats wrong. heh"

[raven rover]

Welp, i dont

And i dont plan to ever

[pseudo charm]

he's just gonna kill someone's computer

[raven rover]

I had enough players lambasting me for my builds

[fair breach]

i dont think i have any pics of its old design but the Ice Shard got a complete glow up like gya dayum

[raven rover]

Very discouraging

[fair breach]

oough..

[raven rover]

thats why i moved on to smaller builds

[pseudo charm]

ice shard?

[fair breach]

ye i named it that bc its spiky and blue

[raven rover]

Not fun sharing the big builds and getting players asking if it crashes others

[fair breach]

and my home planet is a snowy ocean planet

[pseudo charm]

doth thou haveth any pictures of thine shard? 🙂

[pseudo charm]

yeah I would say it is not indeed

[fair breach]

here yeah

the message i replied to

[raven rover]

Yeah

[fair breach]

everything i do got a cold theme bc im a total cold lover

[pseudo charm]

my god this dude is still adding stuff to his ship! appearance modifier. radar dish...

he's got every freakin exocraft on there. uh.

[raven rover]

Honestly mitey, im kinda bored with corvette building rn

[edgy geyser]

Pirate yacht

[raven rover]

I enjoy big builds but it seems that not a lot of players actually appreciate it

[fair breach]

damn my launch cost is less than 6%

[pseudo charm]

are you? oh you gotta come on my ship and do missions and exploration then sir 🙂

[raven rover]

I made it for myself too but i wanted to share it

Since i cannot bring that anywhere

But man

[pseudo charm]

You just gotta build smart.

[raven rover]

I did

[pseudo charm]

And not LARGE then share the joy of that.

[raven rover]

I know i cam

I just enjoy larger builds

That 400 thing

[pseudo charm]

you have excellent 100 part ships sir! that still look big 🙂

[edgy geyser]

One thing my systems got is nothing, just me and a friend

[raven rover]

Its hollow

[pseudo charm]

well go you 🙂

[raven rover]

If its not hollow then itd be more

[edgy geyser]

Ikr

[pseudo charm]

time to call Ikea! 🙂

[raven rover]

Yeah i just dont enjoy the limitations

It was fun for my 3 builds

[hardy badge]

Which corvette build you guys talking about?

[pseudo charm]

well you are gonna have to wait a couple years you know.

[pseudo charm]

his 400 part my god ship 🙂

[hardy badge]

Pic?

[pseudo charm]

vs my 81 tight as a mofo ship heh

[raven rover]

Welp, im not going to multiplayer anytime soon with that

[pseudo charm]

Do it Z! Show em! 🙂

[raven rover]

Without permissions at least

[hardy badge]

Yeah, better off

[pseudo charm]

That mine 🙂

[raven rover]

The only reason i went to your world with that bcs you invited pablo and he asked me to join

I even asked if youre fine with it

😭

[hardy badge]

Nice!

[raven rover]

lemme rummage my screenshots..

[hardy badge]

[pseudo charm]

I loes it! Two decks. tight but cozy on the inside 🙂 has what.. 4 or 5 storage things.

[pseudo charm]

what did you name this ship? 🙂

[raven rover]

Still has no name

I dont even fly it anymore

[pseudo charm]

why not?

[raven rover]

Just wanted to know if i can build smth like that

[hardy badge]

Wow! So that's two corvettes side by side? Dad n son?

[raven rover]

3 actually

That black one is another

Its just a random corvette meetup at this server

Coincidentally the other guys color scheme matches mine

[hardy badge]

[hardy badge]

Love that one too, so cute

[hardy badge]

Fun!

[raven rover]

It sure was!

12am random corvette meetup

[hardy badge]

What a trip! They look related

[pseudo charm]

What you gots to do @raven rover is find a ship you love so much that you will do the inside and the outside.. and add lights and make it all purty with excellent stats that you feel like a REAL space ship engineer!

[raven rover]

I loved that persons design so much that i made a completely new one based on that

[hardy badge]

I'd prob make mine super simple too

[raven rover]

Idk its like uhh

I do art

And i dont like dwelling in 1 piece for too long

I move on

[hardy badge]

Good deal. It's definitely a sweet design

[pseudo charm]

yes and an artist when they come across the one piece that they LOVE.. will give it extra effort! That's what I did with the Meridian 🙂

[raven rover]

I did give mine extra efforts but i have to move on so i dont get burnt our

[hardy badge]

Makes sense, if you're just wanting to create different designs

[raven rover]

yes

[pseudo charm]

yeah but don't burn yourself out sir! I hear.. there's an expedition coming up. MAYBE its reruns.. maybe its not.

[raven rover]

All that in the span of 1 month and now i have 4 more

There were def favs that i put extra effort in

[glass surge]

and here i am trying to make a specific SC slot layout for a new corvette the last few days

[hardy badge]

Ooh love the red one, top right. Totally not biased

[pseudo charm]

...biased! 🙂

hehehe

I know this is corvette discussion but still.. best present ever.. the red emo hair flip.

[hardy badge]

S'okay, as long as you're enjoying the process. Everyone builds at their own pace

[pseudo charm]

you tryin for that godly 4 square touching thing?

[glass surge]

Yup not sure if it's worth it or very rare and you have to keep reloading

[pseudo charm]

okay I know someone explained this to me before but.. why is it important to have?

[raven rover]

adjacent tech = beeg numbers

[pseudo charm]

ah.

[raven rover]

Adjacent tech with adjacent sc slots?

Bullshit numbers

Specifically the square sc pattern

[pseudo charm]

is thsi bad?

I mean I worked to get manuverability up there. but the damage. eh. shield nice. range okay.

but the DAMAGE

[raven rover]

Nah dont look at damage stats

Just see the dps on the actual gun

[pseudo charm]

dammit the tech moved agian

[raven rover]

Stats is decent

You can def get the maneuver to 3k ish easy enough

[sick pawn]

every time I edit the ship, I have to go check the tech layout, it's a bit tedious

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

[pseudo charm]

I am still not sure how but happy I got it up there where it IS

[raven rover]

Its a minigame atp

[sick pawn]

the minigame for me is, "I wonder if I justremove these modules and put on those ones how it will look", expd save, a serious grunge feel to the corvette, trying to strike a balance between grunge and clutter

back down below 80 parts which gives some maneuvernig room too

[balmy cedar]

I like keeping the rust skin on my corvettes

[pseudo charm]

clutter eh? oh man heh

[pseudo charm]

thank you. gives it that "oh this ship has seen things" look doesn't it?

[sick pawn]

well this started as "let me try to get some basic symmetry and put parts on I want to take back"

[balmy cedar]

Yea

[pseudo charm]

Should I screen shot all the tech layout @raven rover ?

[balmy cedar]

Like this bad boy

[sick pawn]

i's definitely not "sleek" (mine I mean)

[balmy cedar]

It does

Now my favorite ship I've made?

[pseudo charm]

ohh that bad boy cute!

you took a thing and put your own personal spin on it!

[balmy cedar]

I do that a bit

This was a UNSC pelican from a YT tutorial

Now it's a slightly better one

It's junky and janky

With an interior to match too

[pseudo charm]

cute AND effective eh?

[balmy cedar]

Ugly around the edges, elegant in function yes

Flies like an eagle

Now, I won't say what kind bc it isn't the fastest

Decent LY range tho

1500 give or take

[pseudo charm]

Mitey do mood lighting hehe. Cargo and main deck.

[pseudo charm]

that'll do the kessel run!

[balmy cedar]

In 12 parsec no less

[pseudo charm]

At least you're not 70,000 light years from home 🙂

[balmy cedar]

Hahahaha I'm in another dimension from it

I could teleport back

Portals and all that

[pseudo charm]

oh sure. cheat. thats fine. hehe 🙂

[balmy cedar]

But is it worth going back to the bland normie galaxy after being in the Hilbert Dimension?

[balmy cedar]

Hmm true

Black holes exist

[pseudo charm]

do they ever. and yes. I've gone through em tryin to cover 70k light years 🙂

[balmy cedar]

Fly through them until either A: I end up in Space east Turkey, or B end up in space vegas

[pseudo charm]

Mitey do have to give props to @raven rover after all he DID help me figure out the saucer part! which was the hardest part.

[fair breach]

so turns out my corvette's launch costs are less than 1%

[balmy cedar]

That's good

Got that launch recharger corvette piece?

[fair breach]

not even that

i dont need it at this point

[pseudo charm]

So you land eh? I mean.. beaming down is totally a thing and is what saved me on SO MUCH fuel costs when going through the Artemis quest

[sick pawn]

I find it pretty entertaining that these huge ckuunker ships (like mine) can have the most absurd maneuverability stats

[fair breach]

wait apparently i do and its in a supercharge slot

[balmy cedar]

That'd do it

[sick pawn]

I have the recharger on it too, but I basically never land the thing

[balmy cedar]

I land

The recharger is handy

[sick pawn]

I just... don't need to

[balmy cedar]

Haven't used launch fuel in forever

[fair breach]

is the game just recharging it so damn fast it looks like it costs nothing lmao

[fair breach]

i havent used it once bc when i first started the save file i spawned right next to the uranium fingers

[sick pawn]

well that and launch fuel costs are super low to begin with

[balmy cedar]

Yea I get I could airdrop

[pseudo charm]

What did you call your ship? Mine's the DSV Meridian 74656

[ancient ginkgo]

How big should I make my ship

Corvette

[outer atlas]

my first corvette

[sick pawn]

oh uh I didn't even rename it yet, I think it's somethign or other Avenger and it had some number at the end, I just removed the number and left the rest

[balmy cedar]

Mine? Outrider Beowulf

[pseudo charm]

well thats a loaded question

[ancient ginkgo]

I want to make it big enough to scare my friends (warp in to block out the sun)

[balmy cedar]

However makes you happiest

[fair breach]

Ice Shard

[ancient ginkgo]

It will be very big then

[pseudo charm]

DSV was short for Deep Space Vessel 🙂 my own head cannon! heh

[sick pawn]

if you make it more than 100 parts, don't go to the anomaly with it in multiplayer, you can screw over other people's frame rates and that's not good

[ancient ginkgo]

And triangular

[pseudo charm]

oh its CUTE

[sick pawn]

if you want more than 100 pieces there are mods though... have at

[ancient ginkgo]

Mines gonna be XXXXXXXXXXXXXL

[pseudo charm]

right. go ahead genius. When you catch flame from all the players in the area.. don't be suprised. Sorry not sorry. RESPONSIBILTY is a thing as a starship engineer

[ancient ginkgo]

I have no responsibility

[night blaze]

just might after I buy this blonde kid

[ancient ginkgo]

All of them crash when I. Warp the ship in

[pseudo charm]

riiight. then turn multiplayer off and go on in all you want 🙂

[sick pawn]

you don't have to be responsible but then you had better play solo

anyways, we'll wait to see the build

[ancient ginkgo]

Multiplayer ON

[pseudo charm]

see thats irresponsible because you KNOW you're crashing them.

Which lead to the patch.. that prevents that from happening 🙂

[ancient ginkgo]

Who knows 🤫

[pseudo charm]

because you couldn't be BOTHERED to be responsible 🙂

[ancient ginkgo]

We just wait then

[sick pawn]

so. back to the topic of this channel

[night blaze]

hammerhead?

[ancient ginkgo]

[night blaze]

oh the ship Hammerhead

[pseudo charm]

this IS on topic. Building a ship. responsibly and respectfully if you're gonna go into a community area.

[night blaze]

that didnt even get screen time did it?

[ancient ginkgo]

No it’s with my friends

[pseudo charm]

I saw it. it looked good. I was just wondering if it WAS the hammerhead.

I found hull access is a must for teams. people like goin outside for whatever reason

[terse kestrel]

Standing on an open viewing deck > window

Windows just make me wish I could go outside 😭

[pseudo charm]

well apparently better scanning view. and when they jump off.. I know to stop and turn towards em

alright maybe it's not super small, but in comparison to some monstrosities I've seen at the Nexus I would say It's still relatively respectful 😂

managed to squeeze max weapons, landing gears, engines, & shields

@strange fiber I put the numbers on tonight! 🙂

He knows what I am talkin about 🙂

[pastel tendon]

Welp, what do you guys think? I heard that upto 6 phase beams can stack so that's why I have 6 of them. Also, lemme know how can I make it look more awesome 👀

[marsh epoch]

#nms-showcase-corvettes message @spark lark flying car looks really cool

[misty lark]

super ivel atlas corvette

[sour kelp]

ok i think its done... hopefully last update lol.
I think i perfected the link effect this time, and she now has a name!
I call her the "Tau of Her Advance"

[gentle turtle]

Don't you just hate adjusting something on a giant build and suddenly the "not all modules are connected" pops up

🫠🥲

[slow harbor]

Why does my C-class corvette on permadeath has 3 SC slots?

they just randomly appeared at some points, the original one was the one under cockpit

[tawny plume]

Starting to get the general shape of the Arquitens-class imperial light cruiser but some angles need some fixes still

[iron palm]

I really like building corvettes but it's taking up so much space in my space ship slots and you can't archive them....

[fervent mist]

Yet to name my new daily, any creative geniuses wanna do their thing?

[mystic canopy]

oh hey it's the disconnected aeron parts thing

[fervent mist]

I love it, but pulled my hair out trying to figure out how I was going to clump the parts together with the engines 😅😂

Figured it out though and honestly, I think it was worth the effort.
Looks goood

But I can’t seem to keep the appearance for my ships the same, so I’ll definitely be up at night improving it haha ha

[iron palm]

How do you even make a corvette with disconnected parts? ( vanilla non-modded ).

[hoary agate]

[slow harbor]

Foggy station inside of an asteroid ring

[mystic canopy]

aeron parts (*mostly the diamond shaped one?) just are weird like that and wont need glitches to achieve disconnected parts (at least i dont think building stuff, putting the aeron part, and removing the connecting parts is considered a glitch)
otherwise pins

[mild stratus]

@raven rover brother just enjoys building capital ships that could destroy planets

[iron palm]

I checked the pins, but I don't know what guide is a required reading/ viewing for building with disconnected parts.

[abstract crow]

Who doesn't want at least one massive capital ship corvette?

[marsh epoch]

that's why I always finalize after some big changes that I am happy with, so when things go wrong and can't be undone I could exit and restart from previous exit

[spark lark]

😊🙏

[fossil dome]

how do i improve this, i dont like it for some reason

[abstract crow]

Needs moar guns

[fossil dome]

ship complexity 😔

[abstract crow]

Delete parts, add more dakka

[fossil dome]

but idk what to delete

maybe like smth on the wings

[abstract crow]

That really doesn't look like 100 parts from the photo

[random zinc]

I guess it's a matter of taste because I really like it

I wish mine looked nearly as good

My corvette is 7 habs wide, 5 habs (walkways) long, and 5 habs high and looks almost as ugly as that sounds. I'm trying to make that look nice to the sides and less blocky around the 5×4×2 hab area, but it's not going well.

Is there a walkway-sized trim piece that is high on three corners and low on the fourth?

[south geyser]

My new corvette , took inspiration from the forward unto dawn from halo 3

[crisp pasture]

interesting floor...

[marsh epoch]

why is the ingame screencap with LMB is so low resolution

wasted one of the shot because I deleted the one with F12

[pseudo charm]

First examine what it is you think you don’t like.. then you can improve upon it. Is it because it feels too flat? Or the same color? Not everything has to be the same color! 🙂 that might spice it right up!

[pseudo charm]

Use your PC’s print screen and it will be higher resolution

#nms-showcase-corvettes message Last pic is the entrance of my ship

[pseudo charm]

Oh my the rounded part. Whoo that must have taken some doing

[marsh epoch]

not really for the round part. Beeblebum shows some easy and precise way to do it

can I share the link here?

[pseudo charm]

He does indeed. Lots of good stuff from him!

Heck I bookmark his stuff heh

[pseudo charm]

I believe when you get to higher rank sir. Just keep chatting and you will level up in no time

[marsh epoch]

no i mean like, is embed link allowed here before I even try to post it

[pseudo charm]

I know what you meant. I am not sure if it will at your current rank is all

[marsh epoch]

@calm bane now what we need are atlas habs

and cockpit

[random zinc]

doesn't doing that blow through the complexity limit in short order?

[marsh epoch]

wdym?

for building the circle it took me like 20 parts max in the process, besides that's probably the first thing you would do

so plenty of buffer

you can delete the middle stuffs when you move outwards

[random zinc]

ok, so it doesn't. I thought it required way more

(after watching that video)

[marsh epoch]

nah, luckily we can attach new habs to existing habs even if they are disconnected

if they limit us to only attach to connected parts then we are probably screwed

my ship took me around 90 parts

[random zinc]

I see

[fossil dome]

it js doesnt look smooth and looks really bumpy

and the wings look kinda weird to me

[pseudo charm]

whoops. Okay lets see. hmm did you try and use parts that have similar names? those are usually designed to create smooth lines. Test a couple pieces out.. and heck even some that do NOT have the same name do fit together rather nicely

Don't be afraid to color parts of your ship differently to make it stand out either.

[fossil dome]

alr ill try

do you have any tips for the wing shape

[pseudo charm]

I know everyone wants something bird like.. but heck think about space ships move. it isn't the wings that make them go... my own ship doesn't make use of wings.. it has "nacelles

I just can't thank @raven rover enough for the help he gave when designing and implementing this ship. it was a struggle to get it where I wanted it.. and don't regret building it at all!

[pseudo charm]

and honestly for wing shape.. I tell you the best person to ask would be @raven rover He's designed some really impressive ships!

[fervent mist]

Late to the party, just saw this stuff bcuz I wanted a cool Corvette. Isn't however the responsibility of the NMS dev team to make sure stuff like this isn't possible? It seems like there's heavy dissonance with a lot of this community when it comes to multiplayer functionality and them being able to do whatever they want.

[willow lichen]

How would one make a vertical circular corvette?

[untold oak]

How many reactors modified with light years can be installed?

And can you somehow stop the ship from always hovering

[willow lichen]

Why can’t I do the window trick

Nvm got it

[sour kelp]

There’s a really easy way to put those disconnected bits wherever you like

[random zinc]

Short-range teleporters are on the corvette build menu, but they don't appear to be functional. What are they for? Set dressing? I guess along with the hexagonal table, you can make something that resembles a T.A.R.D.I.S. console.

[flat current]

Iirc those worked before

[terse kestrel]

If there's one thing I've learned after all these years of playing this game and interacting with new players it's:

Show me a person who hates modding and glitch building and I'll show you somebody who will be using those methods as soon as you explain to them how easy it is.

[sour kelp]

I think they are really buggy and don’t work reliably atm. HG probably still working on how to make them work on a moving object

[terse kestrel]

It's one of many things available either to be built in the Corvette or hidden in the game files that's just not functional yet

[random zinc]

All I seem to be able to do with them is to reactivate them (turning on the translucent field), but I can't attach a teleport wire to them...

[terse kestrel]

Looking at all the physics issues related to Corvettes and how often they break physics I'm not surprised they can't get the teleporter working just yet

There's times where I walk up or down the stairs while I'm in pulse drive and I get ejected from the ship. And more than likely trying to shift around your ship in short range teleporters will have the same effect

But just the fact it's there shows that they want the teleporters to be on the corvette. They just need to get them working. They'll figure it out eventually

[swift mist]

that conversation was about someone saying they'll go into the anomaly with a corvette to intentionally crash other people's games

it's not unreasonable to ask them to be responsible and considerate of other people when using a mod to bypass the corvette complexity limit in multiplayer

[random zinc]

sure, but there are a lot of unreasonable people out there, and you only need one for a bad time

I got tired of griefers so MP is off at most times. I have no friends that play NMS anyway.

[sage wolf]

Omg did someone actually say that?

[pseudo charm]

isn't the first time someone in here said they are building a ship to purposefully crash people

And probably won't be the last

[sage wolf]

Buh

[abstract crow]

For shame

[random zinc]

A fix would be for the game to only load and render the first 100 parts that are within the build bubble, deleting any parts not rendered, and whatever happens to the pilot as a result is their own fault

[pseudo charm]

or you know. people could just be responsible 🙂

I mean stickin within the rules isn't even that HARD. My ship tiny. Cute. but tiny on purpose 🙂

[sage wolf]

You're asking the impossible lol

[pseudo charm]

heck I a don't think I used more than what.. 25 maybe 30 parts?

[pseudo charm]

Mitey asks the impossible every day 🙂

[abstract crow]

I love my large ships too much. I know they'll never be seen outside of my area of space, but I'm not going to settle with 100 parts either.

[random zinc]

I hit 85 when I was under the mistaken assumption that adding 12 thrusters and 12 reactors actually did something

[pseudo charm]

Wow I literally started to ount the parts.. I really don't think I go that high. wow

[sour kelp]

Or just not render their texture or effects but retain collision.
Yeh you’ve got a big cool ship… but I can only see the center section and you’re floating in space in front of it XD

[raven rover]

Ayyyy np famm

[sour kelp]

Love that ship… looks like Voyager in warp configuration

[random zinc]

I think computing collision could be abused to grief people

[pseudo charm]

you did really good sir. I'm recommending you to everyone hehe

[sour kelp]

Fair

[pseudo charm]

I tell you I thought about trying to put the nacelles up and at an angle.. then said to myself "why you messin with it?" 🙂

[sage wolf]

Corvettes are amazing, but almost impractical in my main save because the primary thing i do there is cataloging planets and systems, which requires using a system scanner and landing on specific planets to log their landscape details. You can technically do this in a corvette, but even the smallest corvette would significantly increase the amount of time it takes for me to catalog a system.

They're just too bulky for fast logging

[random zinc]

reducing it to the build bubble might solve that, but better to penalize griefers by deleting the extra parts. (yes, this is how bad it got for me, so I'm bitter)

[raven rover]

and it puts bad light on players like me

[sour kelp]

Nah she looks best in go fast mode

[random zinc]

I lost a save game due to griefers

[raven rover]

So now everyone just generalizes

Big build? THIS DUDE BRINGS IT TO THE ANOMALY

[pseudo charm]

I am sorry to hear that. Tho thats what I do in my ship. catelog planets 🙂 There's a mod that allowed for the mission computer to ALSO function as a system scanner

[raven rover]

READY THE PITCHFORKKSSSS
