[abstract crow]

Hab glitch means your habs can be backwards and not really connect. You kinda need to mess with them or just fly into your ship to remove the backwards ones

[stone shadow]

Are you trying to make a dorito bomber? This corvette looks great

[pale pagoda]

dorito ships my beloved

i wonder, what specifically happens when you upgrade your corvettes class?

whats the difference between C tier and S tier?

[glass surge]

Base stats increase and ability to increase cargo and tech slots also does

[pale pagoda]

i see, thanks

[stone shadow]

SC slots + more cargo and tech slots

[glass surge]

yeah also those

[pale pagoda]

SC slots?

[stone shadow]

Super charged slots:
C: 1
B: 2
A: 3
S: 4

[pale pagoda]

ohhhh

gotcha

[high gyro]

what’s a good way to just get a bunch of corvette parts

[glass surge]

[pale pagoda]

God i cant figure out what i do and dont need to install for making corvettes in blender

driving me up a wall

[molten oriole]

ufo 👽

[raven rover]

a save editor, the blender plugin

Thats it

[pale pagoda]

yup, figured it out eventually, ty regardless

[harsh scroll]

Not mine, I got kidnapped by it

[hexed charm]

how

[pale pagoda]

Sometimes if youre too close to a corvette and the owner flies away, it decides youre going with them

as far as building it

it involves glitch building techniques that allow you to use base parts on your corvette

very neat stuff

[halcyon sky]

i've tried to stowaway on other people's corvettes

without success

[glass surge]

you can ride on them on the outside as well

[harsh scroll]

went inside and the pilot took off, I didn't know he was in

[still raven]

wondering if there is anyway to have the mandalorians second ship, the naboo N-1 star fighter? that is size accurate and if not if anyone knows any games that do have something like that

[sweet garden]

Greetings, travelers. I have yet another question about lighting up rock hoppers: Which corvette parts count towards the animation limit shared with those? I have replaced the mag fields with basic landing gears and installed 3 pairs of thrusters, yet only one of four hoppers lights up. Any suggestions? Cheers

[pale pagoda]

you 100% could, though most likely just with a couple mods to get rid of the part limit/size limit. The main limitation would be how smooth you would want to make the curves, which exponentially increases how many parts you need to use (which if you go crazy enough, can result in the game having some major instability issues)

[pale pagoda]

Sorry, dont know myself which contribute to the limit, but the least i can do is mention that theres a mod that increases the limit on how many effects can be active on a corvette at a time which could solve your problem (though i know some have strong feelings towards using mods when building corvettes, but doesnt hurt to know it exists)

[sweet garden]

Good point, I think once tried that one and still have a copy of the GCBUILDABLESHIPGLOBALS.GLOBAL.EXML somewhere. Also, the file gives a rough idea of the part categories for separate fx limits. Could be due to wing parts with minor effects on them, maybe.

[glass surge]

I only noticed the rockhoppers come back if i do a new build from scratch as i've done a recent rebuild of a ship i made but as soon as i use mag landing pads it starts over riding the rockhoppers.

There is a trick i learned recently from the corvette showcase channel that is you can delete the landing pad / mag landing at the same time as you finalize the corvette it'll delete the landing gear finalize the corvette and you can still land etc but if you edit the corvette again you have to do this trick again. this might not help with animations though.

I plan on doing the animation mod on PC for my next build once i finish it

[sweet garden]

Thank you, that's helpful input. Let's see if there is another way than rebuilding the thing from scratch.

[raven rover]

someone said its the section thats the same as the rockhoppers that affects the lighting effects

Or thrusters

Im honestly not sure either but the no complexity limit corvette mod circumvents that

wai why did you delete that pic

[pale pagoda]

lowkey

[raven rover]

was going to comment on it

😔

[pale pagoda]

wanted to update the pic

[raven rover]

Ah

[pale pagoda]

then deleted it

and then got embarassed and deleted the whole thing lmao

[raven rover]

You should try adding the back wings back

Might look cool

[raven rover]

So it doesnt resemble a b2 as much

[pale pagoda]

see, i wanna add the wings, but this thing already barely fits in the station lol

[raven rover]

😭

nahh bro

Make it even bigger

[pale pagoda]

very tempting

[raven rover]

Big ships are cool

[pale pagoda]

it would be very cool

[raven rover]

Yeah the back wings looks really good

[sweet garden]

Agreed, you should attempt creating the rear section.

[raven rover]

But your current one is alr very cool too

[pale pagoda]

thanks, ill probably update it

(eventually)

i need to farm quicksilver and play barbie

[sweet grail]

For some reason, when I am placing down my 3rd medusa reactor, it isn't showing up in the tech section

[glass surge]

because it competes with the cockpit; delete 2 of the reactors and apply edits, edit the corvette again, delete the cockpit first then put in all three reactors and then add the cockpit and you should get three medusa reactors in the tech slots

[raven rover]

The cockpit acts as a medusa

[sweet grail]

ah gotcha

[pale pagoda]

never knew that actually, wonder why that is

[raven rover]

Maneuverability stat

[warm swift]

Atlas Copter

[chilly berry]

is this a nice looking ship in yalls opinion or nah

[raven rover]

the two front thrusters look weird tbh

The rest looks fine

[hoary agate]

Only thing that is important is, do u like it.

[normal tusk]

Agree

[chilly berry]

i also made this but idk if i should change something to it

[sweet garden]

Did some more testing with the rockhopper lighting, without mods, switching the active ships to reset the effects after each edit, and the results were indeed not reproducible. Newly assembled vettes could have 3 mags, 4 hoppers and a plethora of reactors and boosters with nicely active visuals. Breaking down parts of the main ship and reinstalling hoppers made some of those light up again, but the results were not consistent. This was also dependent on the lateral position on otherwise symmetric ship. So, it remains unclear what sections are and how the prioritization is handled by the game. Resorting to an exml in the mod folder that raises the effect limits indeed seems the only reasonable way to deal with this.

[tropic quarry]

@tired dome

[nimble goblet]

is it just me or does the game sometimes not give you items back when your inventory is full?

[elder iron]

It tends to put them in other inventories

The corvette modules themselves should go in the parts cache

[nimble goblet]

yeah found it

[harsh scroll]

should but they don't 😠

[elder iron]

I think they do specifically if exosuit and starship inventories are full

[raw elk]

rate my Corvette from 1-10

[raven rover]

ah thanks for the clarification

[wild sequoia]

Any idea on how can I improve the looks of my corvette

[hardy oracle]

It already looks pretty cool! But maybe a bit more part variety might help? It looks like more than half of the pieces seen from above are either speedbird nacelles or aeron pillars. Nothing wrong with either but it does look a little repetitive. It doesn't look like you used any decor pieces at all yet, perhaps consider adding some greebles to make it look less repetitive?

[wild sequoia]

Thanks for the advice! But I was thinking on putting some blue in it since the engines on the top glow blue.

[high gyro]

are there any habitats that are better than others or are they all the same

[hardy oracle]

It's really just aesthetics in the end. The only stats they have is to add slots and you can max out slots without any habs. If I really had to declare a "best" hab it would be no hab, since they take up tech slots without adding anything useful. That would be a pretty boring home among the stars though. 🙂

[dark ginkgo]

I got a corvette with like over 2200 manoeuvrability at A class

It is pretty nice

[hardy oracle]

I think I might have made a new record, and I I don't really know how it happened. It was about 1300 lower before I repainted the ship. I was aiming for high visibility yellow, but maybe I accidently painted it high speed yellow.

I bet something got applied twice somehow, it will probably go back down if I restart 🙂

[harsh scroll]

I'm a fan of glowing parts, you could partially expose some reactors and change some thrusters if you're into that

[harsh scroll]

I believe everything is redundant after 1500 so now you're just getting numbers lol

iirc the hidden cap is 1500-1600

[visual marten]

When making a corvette what stats do yall think are more important to keep high? Ive currently got
220 dmg
450 shield
2187 hyperdrive
337 movement

Ive still got two unused supercharge slots

[harsh scroll]

manuverability otherwise they move like flying bricks

Damage is false and is handled by the weapon tech itself

[hardy oracle]

It is fair to say it is unnecessary after a certain point, but turning and boost speed does go up even at this extreme level.

[elder iron]

Maneuverability affects multiple things. Speed definitely seems to have a cap, but maneuverability typically has greater influence on turning speed

[harsh scroll]

🤔

[elder iron]

From what ive been told, for turn speed theres a practical limit

[hardy oracle]

You do have to keep in mind that manouvrability has nothing at all to do with boost or pulse speed in the first place. It's just that speed is increased by mostly the same upgrades

[elder iron]

Because anything higher and turning glitches out

[harsh scroll]

Yeah at a certain point it becomes janky and jolty

[elder iron]

I think it has a bit to do with speed

But yeah

I wish we could see all the stats of the starship

[visual marten]

To be fair at a certain point (not even in the thousands) ive noticed combat is super easy

[hardy oracle]

It's not an unreasonable guess to make, but you can easily test this. Place down a polo figurine (manoeuvrability) somewhere without adjacency. Check with and without him equipped. You'll get the same boost speed., Then do the exact same experiment with the artemis figurine which only has the "boost" stat. The reason it's so easy to relate boost speed to manoeuvrability is because so many proper upgrades always buff both at the same time:

[elder iron]

Ahh, that makes sense

[hardy oracle]

They are not the same, it's just that it's hard to get one without the other

[elder iron]

HG GIVE ME EXPANDED EQUIPMENT STATISTICS

I wanna see all of them

Including for the exosuit

Hyperdrive fuel efficiency is equally important as range, imo

[hardy oracle]

Arguably more important once you upgrade enough, since you can usually get anywhere you want with a single jump once your range is nearing 3k

Though at least for efficiency it's very easy to test it. Just check how much fuel you have before and after a jump. I just checked it myself, turns out One jump takes 2% for me

[tardy bear]

Seriously, i just started a new corvette put my land gear/hab/cockpit down and the corvette lifted off and left the station 😅

[molten oriole]

this is by far the best hidden gun placement ive ever done

[south garnet]

why does the tech in my tech slots shift around

ive lost 1k from Manoeuvrability

[glass surge]

it's a known bug even with multiplayer off if you have more than one corvette it still happens ; you may want to stick to starships until it's fixed

[tropic quarry]

is this good

im rolling supercharged slots until i get a good one and this is my first go

[hoary agate]

T sc layout is top tier

[tropic quarry]

so im good to modify now?

[hoary agate]

Imo yes

[south garnet]

so why do so many people not talk about it?

[glass surge]

talking about it Over and over and over and over is pointless

report it

!hg

[lament abyss]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[elder iron]

It actually has been partially fixed, since it used to happen more frequently

[south garnet]

there reported

[south garnet]

also anyone got tips for my tech slots?

[elder iron]

What is the stat you wanna focus on most?

[south garnet]

all rounder i want more damage tbh

i want to keep my high manv tho

[elder iron]

Well, check your weapon dps first

[south garnet]

infra is 7.5k 5k shielded phase is 5k and positron is 2k 900 shielded

[elder iron]

So phase beam applies for either each beam fired or each 2 beams fired

[elder iron]

Sometimes it can seem like less, but it can do a ton of damage real quick

[south garnet]

is my slot layout good tho?

[elder iron]

Oh I just realized positron ejector, for some reason I was thinking of cyclotron

I would say remove that one, then you have space to add corvette weapons for the other two weapons

[foggy thorn]

Ba

[south garnet]

they are maxed

ohhh like the modules?

[elder iron]

The corvette parts, yeah

You can have up to three guns boosting a weapon

For things like the starship trails and bobbleheads I'm less certain, but you might be able to get more maneuverability boost out of a second Medusa reactor

The chromatic warp drives do give adjacency bonuses for hyperdeive range, but you only need the indium drive, and later the atlantid drive, for full access

[harsh scroll]

Very nice

[tropic quarry]

im working on the actual ship part now

the looks

first time building a corv this big

[harsh scroll]

Nice! What kind of ship are you going for? Mine is a fighter style

[tropic quarry]

gonna ask for feedback once im done

[tropic quarry]

im not sure yet

im sorta just throwing stuff at the wall and hoping it sticks

[elder iron]

Works surprisingly well, doesnt it?

[tropic quarry]

only bit i dont like is the transitional area between the thin cockpit and thick area

[elder iron]

True, even with the rim pieces its hard to work with

I tend to use offsetting

[tropic quarry]

whats that

[elder iron]

Something of a not quite intended mechanic that allows for more creativity

A hab or walkway and a rockhopper fan can be used to move one or the other a half of a grid space

[tropic quarry]

oooo

count me interested

[elder iron]

Theres also a way to use the ventilation duct or whatever its called to offset a hab/walkway diagonally relative to the grid

[harsh scroll]

i think there's a video about that

[tropic quarry]

mk1 is done, does it matter if its off centre? do i need to offset it all backwards

[tropic quarry]

all thats left is a paintjob

[daring flame]

rate my corvette

[harsh scroll]

ooh sleek

[tropic quarry]

what about this

will i need to

[daring flame]

probly not it looks great

[harsh scroll]

Looks great

[tropic quarry]

now for the task of arranging all of these

[pale pagoda]

dw you wont (most likely?), the next time you land it'll estimate a new center of mass for your ship and recenter for you in a way that should look normal

[harsh scroll]

good luck with that part, they like to randomly rearrange any time you make edits to the ship

[tropic quarry]

ill take a ss of what my final build is then

[daring flame]

ya i left that part for last on mine

[harsh scroll]

I had a horrific glitch happen to me last week

[tropic quarry]

stats so far without using sc slots

[daring flame]

can you guy rate my ship

[halcyon sky]

what would you want to optimise?

[harsh scroll]

I had to load a backup save from the previous day

[pale pagoda]

its not a very good photo since most of it is being blocked by the inventory. Try taking a picture with the photo mode

[daring flame]

ok

[tropic quarry]

how abotut his

this

[still token]

I feel like corvettes should have been turned into more of an endgame thing
Maybe cost resources to research and fabricate parts has a sink
And limited to 1 corvette
I think it would have helped keep the standard ships more relevant instead of immediately made obsolete

Well not immediately obsolete
But still

[tropic quarry]

i like having both

[pale pagoda]

its difficult to rate it from the inventory. Cant really give feedback on a painting while 3/4'ths are blocked yk?

[tropic quarry]

im talking bout the slots not the design

[pale pagoda]

ohhhh my bad sorry

[tropic quarry]

design is here^

[tropic quarry]

saul goodman

[daring flame]

now can you rate my corvette

[hardy oracle]

Who would gain from making old ships more relevant? Isn't it great that we now have more choices?

[pale pagoda]

(Dude im ngl i totally mixed you up with this guy @tropic quarry )

[pale pagoda]

pretty sweet

[daring flame]

thanks

[pale pagoda]

Gold isnt much my taste

But its a vaguely gun shaped ship which usually works on me

[daring flame]

what about ist stats

[tropic quarry]

how do i get my stats like that

[daring flame]

lots of annoying research and time

its a blessing and a curse if mobility gets too high it nolonger flighs

[hardy oracle]

They are obviously cheating. There is no legit way to supercharge everything

But if you are genuinely wanting to mimic it, the easy way is through save edits. You can pretty much set your base stats to be whatever you want

[pale pagoda]

honestly dont mind cheating in a mostly single player pve game, but yeah should prob mention that

[daring flame]

this is what i used

save edits

they are a pain to work with thou

[tropic quarry]

oh i didnt see all the supercharged slots lol its half 1 in the morning for me

my last task for the night was to do the corvette and it took way longer than expected

[harsh scroll]

hey can be pretty expensive when it comes to bartering

[tropic quarry]

dont even get me started 🫩

[harsh scroll]

I'm so proud of her

[tropic quarry]

i never wanna visit a planet with salvageable scrap again

[harsh scroll]

I used a mod that disabled bartering and drained all my funds buying parts lol

worse, if the game kept deleting parts on me

[tropic quarry]

im playing vanilla glitchless

[harsh scroll]

it was at that point I turned on the mod

[tropic quarry]

i started this save less than two weeks ago

[hardy oracle]

I think only I spent about 2-3 hours salvaging, got me at least 10 of everything

[harsh scroll]

Nice! I was mad when my salvaged parts got deleted

[pale pagoda]

hating making these wings

[tropic quarry]

how close together were your scrap bits goddamn

mine were upwards of 600u apart

[pale pagoda]

Were you doing it from your ship or on foot?

[tropic quarry]

foot

squid ship

oh do it from a corvette next time

just have it hover along and scan the surface from inside

[pale pagoda]

Its much quicker to shit out a bad corvette, hop out, use your visor, mark it, and shoot it, rinse and repeat

[tropic quarry]

note to self: it only took so long to do cause im using the least optimal method

[tropic quarry]

heard

[harsh scroll]

Who are you trying to stab?

[hardy oracle]

With the right hotkeys and a decently flat salvage world, you can clear more than one deposit per minute. Probably as much as 5

Never even have to leave the cockpit

[harsh scroll]

I didn't get that lucky

so what i did was I traveled to the starter world of the corvette expedition

[mossy nest]

I seen a YT build for a corvette I want to do but hes got flags idk how to get. any tips?

[raven rover]

[harsh scroll]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UutLaXfFcRg?feature=shareare those holograms or hacked parts?

[raven rover]

Wonder projectors

[harsh scroll]

ah so the holograms

[raven rover]

Yes

[harsh scroll]

one thing that does bother me about my ships design is all the darn gaps. I'd love if I had been able to blend the parts on the main part together.

I felt like I had to keep placing stuff under the shell so my character wouldn't fall into holes when I walk on it

[waxen marsh]

I’m new to corvette building and I see the corvettes on the site look way better than mine, and the modules are tucked away from being exposed

How do I build those ships?

I feel like I’m designing a big brick of junk

[harsh scroll]

Honestly I wish the Corvette parts were better sorted by their names

Like the speed bird parts all together

[fathom mauve]

Here's a cut-away view of my own corvette if that helps

Of note, I made the entrance its own little lower floor at the bottom, there's reactors hidden by landing gear, and I also fit further reactors to the rear of the ship hidden inside thrusters normally

[waxen marsh]

Omg this is too confusing

Like everyone has these Star Citizen looking ships and mine looks like a metal rod with bulges😭

[fathom mauve]

Just take it one part at a time

[sharp arrow]

My latest ship

[hollow dragon]

Dude, that's awesome! 🔥

[raven drift]

any tips on how to improve this build? not sure what i was going for tbh

[harsh scroll]

I can't decide which I like better the original (left) or the refit (right)

I think the first one looks sharper and more intimidating, the refit looks softer?

[glass surge]

As far as corvette design and you're not on PC where we can mod and use external programs my recommendation design wise is this.

Decide how many habitats you want to use on your corvette; You can use one Habitat walkway if you don't care about using all the corvette modules; 2 habitats lengthwise with an extra stacked on top and and Habitat walkway can fit all 10 storage modules and things like the mission radar and in ship refiner.

I currently have a corvette with 5 full habitat's and uses 3 habitat walkways intermixed and that lets me have all storage modules, in ship refiner, Mission radar, Nutrient processor and even some room left over to put seats for windows or planters if i want; to me this is the sweet spot especially if you're not going for something crazy or a modded build etc.

You pretty much want to just make a basic corvette and play with it and try different things; don't worry making it look a cool initially or copying someone else's just get the basic one done and build upon that.

We have Videos pinned for techniques, you can check out and search https://www.reddit.com/r/NMS_Corvette_Design/ for more tips, and also #nms-showcase-corvettes for ship inspiration

[opal hinge]

I know she aint that pretty but she's my first corvette and im happy with her, its genuinely quite nice on the inside and I still need to add windows

[harsh scroll]

Option 3, sort of a mix 🤔

[long pawn]

Vroom vroom! Nice V12!

[long pawn]

You sure are! That's a dream layout of your supercharge slots. Have at and have fun!

[long pawn]

Not sure. It was supposedly fixed but I've have to fix my tech everytime I switch corvettes

[harsh scroll]

I don't think it was fixed, still happens to me too

[waxen marsh]

That’s like 10x better

[harsh scroll]

do the decoration parts count towardas the limit?

Like the satelite dishes?

[opal hinge]

10x better than what?

[waxen marsh]

Mine

[waxen marsh]

what

HOW!

ALSO HOW DO YOU HAVE A SHIP THAT BIG WITH SUCK LITTLE TECH SLOTS?

[south garnet]

is there anyway to make multiple corvettes without the shifting bug were your tech moves

[tawdry field]

no I dont think there is

[harsh scroll]

ith how many corvettes you make I'm wondering how many profiles you must have

[warm swift]

profiles?

[harsh scroll]

Save files

[warm swift]

i only have 1 account if that's your asking

i have my starship archive full and 1 exotic squid out + 9 corvette, only two slot remaining

[warm swift]

and i wish we have corvette storage too in our freighter

[dark juniper]

Hehehe I ask myself the same thing even though mine is probably smaller lol

Though this thing is limited by the 100 module limit, not the 60 tech slots that's still plenty

[waxen marsh]

Your thrusters will burn your wings!

[dark juniper]

It generates lift!!! (I hope)

[arctic jetty]

Neyehehe, I have a railgun now! (It's just a scaled shield generator stuck in the nose XD)

[waxen marsh]

Yours looks so good!

Idk how you are able to use those extra parts on the second tab either

[dark juniper]

What extra parts?

All the parts I use I collected

[waxen marsh]

Middle tab

[dark juniper]

These parts? You can use nearly all of them, except for the greyed out modules in the second image, those are locked behind crafting = free for some reason so I haven't used them

[signal trout]

I tried following a tutorial for a corvette but I needed to improvise on the wings.

Although this is still my favourite ship, self made

[signal trout]

Yeah I can’t interior decorate at all, how do you make the inside that large?

[warm swift]

it's a deck exterior

[signal trout]

Ohh

You can build decks?

Im somewhat new

[warm swift]

yeah

[calm shoal]

thoughts yall?

[signal trout]

That’s sick!

Although I’m a bit confused about the 2 extruding corners at the back?

[calm shoal]

the wings?

[signal trout]

It may look better without?

Just a suggestion

[calm shoal]

oh thats the front, i actually decided to use them because i though it would be funny to have it resemble a bug of sorts, think of them like "pincers"

[warm swift]

yeah pincers 😆

[calm shoal]

hence also the green

[signal trout]

Ohhh, that looked like the back😭

Or I may be stupid

[calm shoal]

i thought about calling it the beetle

[calm shoal]

i thought the thrusters made it obvious it was the back lol

[warm swift]

the interiors

[long pawn]

They are both very good. I particularly like the lower one. We need more small corvettes showcased here.

That’s sick

yeah true true

i think thats a wierd bug

I don’t ever decorate the insides of my ships, I’m only good at the outsides

Gonna get some sleep. been up all night. Yeah, it's a bug. I hope they fix it soon. It'd be nice to be able to use all three landing bays without any weirdness.

[long pawn]

Same. I'm slowly learning. I've got a few corvettes big enough to do something to the interior too. See you later!

[warm swift]

what i did was change my other corvette habs like the rugged thunderbird, no wierd bugs less interrior designs lol

[signal trout]

They should definitely give us wheel landing pads, like the ones on planes

[warm swift]

true

another crazy build seen on space anomaly to whom this corvette is good job sir

Heavy gunship design, what do you think?

Get near to the ground

Press E

[uneven void]

Im quitting

it workss

thx

[waxen marsh]

Hey, I need some help with my corvette build. I can’t place vesper aerfoil on the tip like I want, and on top of that, I can’t place two on the tip

[raven rover]

Two like side to side?

You need to offset

Yeah check the pins

[waxen marsh]

What?

I’ll check

That is so confusing

Oh yeah

The game also won’t let me place the aerofoils’ curves facing outward

[dark juniper]

Yes, you can't place them like that as they'd count as intersecting

[signal trout]

Yeah you have to build them infront of 2 blocks things, not one, idk why but that worked for me

[waxen marsh]

I got it. I used a cap to help me!

[mossy nest]

Finally finished my ship build and had to go to my Port settlement!

[waxen marsh]

I CANT DO IT ANYMORE😭😭😭

[signal trout]

Wym?

[waxen marsh]

The thing

To put the foielrdbin the front

[elder iron]

Oh to put them next to each other in line with habs you need to offset them

[waxen marsh]

😭

It not with a hab

It an external hull link

[elder iron]

Same thing

[waxen marsh]

No

[signal trout]

Have you tried putting a block Lower then putting them on it? You can remove the block afterwards

[elder iron]

In terms of dimensions, yes

[waxen marsh]

Mhm

[signal trout]

Just did the method today so it should work

[waxen marsh]

I was lucky

This is broken

[elder iron]

The game thinks you're trying to put two parts in the same spot

[waxen marsh]

Why

[signal trout]

I think you should put this in #nms-showcase-corvettes

[elder iron]

Because you are

[tardy sun]

Oh, so wrong channel?

[elder iron]

Despite the appearances, those parts still take up a 1x2 space on the corvette grid

[signal trout]

This is discussion, #nms-showcase-corvettes is for showing your ships

[tardy sun]

OK moved that thing to there

[elder iron]

You can show corvettes in this channel, just not posting the image with no discussion

[waxen marsh]

Omg this is impossible

[tardy sun]

Am I only one who prefers smaller one when creatint corvette?

[waxen marsh]

I’m gonna cry

[signal trout]

Literally half the server

[tardy sun]

Since Decorating large one is so painfil

[elder iron]

No, there are others who are insane like you

[signal trout]

I adore small corvettes

[waxen marsh]

How did I do it before?

[signal trout]

I ONLY have small corvettes

[elder iron]

Probably by accidentally offsetting

[waxen marsh]

I did that with my cap

I can’t do it anymore

[elder iron]

You can but you may wanna check the pins for the tutorials on it

[waxen marsh]

I watched the video

And it made no sense

[tardy sun]

I think I gonna try more experiment with Aeron parts for design

[signal trout]

I don’t even got those

[elder iron]

The tools you need are basically the thermal cap (iirc), a hab or walkway, and a rockhopper fan thing

[waxen marsh]

?

Idk whah that is

I used a streamline trim cap

[elder iron]

A lot of decorations work, but the vent cap or whatever its called can be bought for cheap in the basic parts shop

[tardy sun]

Window is one of the hardest part to utilize for me

[elder iron]

I dont like free placing things anyway

[tardy sun]

Especially when making ship looks Armor-Heavy

[waxen marsh]

😖

[tardy sun]

Do you have any naming patterns for Your creation?

[signal trout]

I don’t usually name my things

[tardy sun]

Using default name?

[signal trout]

Too hard to memorise, I don’t even really call them anything

[waxen marsh]

Can someone help me

[signal trout]

Here!

[tardy sun]

I suffered something simillar.

[elder iron]

Taking several hours to figure out a name

[signal trout]

I’ll send how I did it but it may not help if you want a smalls hip

Ship

[waxen marsh]

My ship is big

Too big for the pad

[elder iron]

You are attempting to place it in the same space

[signal trout]

Then it should be okay

[elder iron]

DUCTING OUTLET

Thats the part I kept forgetting the name

[waxen marsh]

Not true

[elder iron]

The one that is already placed is occupying that space

Let me guess, I havent saved any screenshots of corvettes that show what I'm talking about

Yup

[hardy oracle]

Unfortunately it is true. Despite appearances most objects take up the entire tile in terms of snapping

[signal trout]

I did something like this

[waxen marsh]

Not true

My screenshots jsut won’t upload

Idk why

You are a bad guesser

[elder iron]

No, im talking about myself

Because I've made corvettes the way youre trying to

[waxen marsh]

Why?

[elder iron]

I just forget to screenshot anything

And if I do I forget to upload it so I can access it from my phone

[waxen marsh]

Will they fix the snaps?

[elder iron]

The snaps arent broken, just annoying

[waxen marsh]

What are those?

[signal trout]

Those what?

White blocks?

[hardy oracle]

You can ignore snap restrictions if you try hard enough and use enough glitches, there are guides on a 180 degree glitch that would fix your specific issue in the pins

[elder iron]

Not even that, just offsetting would work

[hardy oracle]

I suppose it depends on what they want to accomplish

[elder iron]

It seems to me like they want the two diffuser things next to each other to round out the front to a point

But aligned with the hull structure

[waxen marsh]

This isn’t working

[signal trout]

?

[waxen marsh]

Mhm

[elder iron]

The only screenshot I have on me doesnt show the offsetting well

[hardy oracle]

There are guides on offsets in the pins too.

[waxen marsh]

How did you make it so tall?

[waxen marsh]

I watched it.:. it doesn’t make sense

[elder iron]

I accidentally landed on top of a shelter, the landing legs dynamically extend

[hardy oracle]

It doesn't have to make sense, you just have to follow it

[waxen marsh]

…

What?

[hardy oracle]

It is a bug. A glitch in the program. It isn't meant to make sense

[waxen marsh]

Yeah

[elder iron]

It isn't really either

[waxen marsh]

The tutorial I don’t understand

[elder iron]

Its closer to an oversight

[elder iron]

Think of it like scaffolding

[waxen marsh]

I don’t know how to use scaffolding

[elder iron]

Grab a ducting outlet or whatever decoration thing

Place a hab, place the ducting outlet, then pick up the hab and move it around the ducting

[waxen marsh]

I don’t need a hab

[hardy oracle]

You'll probably understand if you just do it. But understanding really isn't a requirement, just perform the same steps as they do in the tutorial. Whether you understand why it work or not has no impact on whether it works or not.

[waxen marsh]

Or an outlet

[elder iron]

Scaffolding is what I call it when you place a part in order to place the part you want in a specific place

[elder iron]

They act as scaffolding

Theyre removed when youre happy with the position of the things you do want

[waxen marsh]

I kinda got it

They are aligned on my hull

But I want them at the end of it, not on top

[elder iron]

Idk why you cant send screenshots, usually youd be able to in this channel

[cursive lark]

They don't have the familiar role

[waxen marsh]

They won’t upload so I can’t download them

[hardy oracle]

And offsetting changes the definition of where "on top" is. But seriously just do the tutorial as is. You will almost certainly understand how to use it.

[elder iron]

Ohhh

[waxen marsh]

It’s so weird

[cursive lark]

Oh that's weird

[waxen marsh]

I hate this

[hardy oracle]

We're building spaceships so I can't say it isn't rocket science, but it really isn't that complicated. Just do the tutorial even if it doesn't seem like it will fix your issue.

[elder iron]

There also might be a few specifics in the tutorial that are hard to understand

Took me at least two watches before I understood how to use rockhopper propellers for offsetting, lol

[hardy oracle]

Performing it is a great way to understand things though

[elder iron]

The thing i didnt understand at first was the importance of being on a specific side

On one side the propellers snap normally, on the other, they snap in half grid spaces

[waxen marsh]

IT IS ROCKET SCIENCE

I’VE BEEN STUCK HERE FOR SO LONG

It would met place both on the end

With the curves facing down and outward

I can’t do that anymore

[elder iron]

I know what you mean and how to do it

[elder iron]

Thats what this is talking about

[waxen marsh]

?

[elder iron]

Its not gonna attach the way you want to on the actual end

[hardy oracle]

I understand that placing a hab seems unrelated, but can't you just trust us for one attempt and do it?

[waxen marsh]

Why

[waxen marsh]

Idk how to do it

[elder iron]

Because it takes up the whole grid space

[elder iron]

Place a hab

At the end

Where you want the things to go

Trust the process, just let me know when youre done

[waxen marsh]

Okay I tried using the outlet

Not working

[elder iron]

Did you place a hab first?

[waxen marsh]

Where?

[elder iron]

Where youre trying to place the curved parts

[waxen marsh]

63:

Yes

Done

[elder iron]

Place the ducting on the side of the hab

[waxen marsh]

MK

[elder iron]

Now pick up the hab, and place it under the ducting

[waxen marsh]

Is it supposed to be red?

[elder iron]

Ignore that for now

[waxen marsh]

…

[elder iron]

Place another hab or a hull link piece on the back of the hab so its clipping into the hull link already on your ship

Assuming we are on the same page here, it should be offset by half a grid space down and to the side

[waxen marsh]

What?

?

[elder iron]

You placed the hab attaching it underneath the ducting, right?

[waxen marsh]

Bottom corner of the hull link. In the model

1/4 of the hull link

[elder iron]

Ok

Placing something behind the hab should link it to the ship again while also letting you have a spot you can place a curved piece where you want it

[waxen marsh]

Which hab?

[elder iron]

The offset hab

[waxen marsh]

There are two

[elder iron]

Oh is one already clipping into the center part of the ship?

[waxen marsh]

What?

You said place one under the duct

Then place another one behind the original hab

[elder iron]

Behind the one you placed under the duct

As in the duct should be attached to the hab

Not the floor of the station

[waxen marsh]

WAIIIIT

YOU MIGHT BE A GENIUS

ONE SEC

[elder iron]

Only due to my persistence in trying to explain things well

[waxen marsh]

WAQAWWW

IT WORKS

THANK YOU

I DONT HAVE ANY MONEY

I SPENT IT ALL ON STICKER BOOKS

[elder iron]

Doesnt matter, I wouldnt want money for this, lol

[waxen marsh]

All right I need another help

But again ss don’t work

I want my thruster in the middle rear, but it won’t fit

[elder iron]

Can you copy and paste the screenshot directly into discord?

Thats what I do when im at my pc

Which is part of the reason I forget to upload them

[waxen marsh]

No

I receive them from my phone

Nvm

I got the booster to fit

It’s big

[elder iron]

So that offsetting trick is basically 2/3 of how to effectively offset things (almost) wherever you want

The other part uses the rockhopper propeller to offset forwards and backwards by half a grid space

I absolutely love small corvettes

[waxen marsh]

I wanna see one

[signal trout]

I posted one at #nms-showcase-corvettes small/medium small

[waxen marsh]

Smart

Did so

Shall

Small

I need to find more scraps a I can have more parts for my build

[signal trout]

Oh I just used creative😭

Lmao

[waxen marsh]

What?

[signal trout]

?? There’s a creative mode?

U know?

[waxen marsh]

I don’t know

[signal trout]

U didn’t know?

[waxen marsh]

No

Why

[signal trout]

It basically disables death and gives infinite money and materials

[waxen marsh]

Why would you want that

[signal trout]

I don’t really like the survival aspect

[elder iron]

I sense a correlation between this and loving small corvettes, lol

[signal trout]

There may be, I just like exploring and building ships

[elder iron]

Also it is allowed to post pictures of corvettes here if its relevant to the discussion

[cursive lark]

It's fun to just build and explore without worrying about anything. I use it to design new corvettes

[signal trout]

If it’s relevant yeah

[elder iron]

Once again I am mad at myself

[elder iron]

I was gonna post a screenshot of a small corvette i made myself, but I didnt upload it to steam

[signal trout]

Damn

I have to transfer all my photos from my switch to my phone

[elder iron]

If I'm at my pc I can just copy and paste from the steam screenshots, but if I'm not, I have to rely on remembering to upload them

[signal trout]

That sucks

[elder iron]

I mean, its basically the same as what you have to do

[glass surge]

smallest corvette i've made on my Corvette Design save

[elder iron]

Pretty close to one I made, actually

[waxen marsh]

This is a little outdated but my build

But

I want it encased

But idk what to use

Also, why only corvettes? Why not also Cruisers and Frigates? I want to build those too

[elder iron]

Oh you can remove the duct thing if you want, lol

[waxen marsh]

Part of the build

[elder iron]

Frigates are in freighter fleets

[waxen marsh]

But

Why can’t we build those

Or cruisers

[elder iron]

Cruisers it would depend on what you mean, lol

[waxen marsh]

Bigger ship

Why are we confined to corvettes?

[elder iron]

Confined!?

Corvettes have been the least restrictive spaceships we've had

But more specifically, you gotta consider limitations

Such as lag

[waxen marsh]

Lag doesn’t exist

[elder iron]

Then you havent been in an area with more than two large corvettes

[waxen marsh]

When is NMS2?

[signal trout]

Does it include the multiverse?

[waxen marsh]

GUYS

I AM SO STUCK ON THE BUILD

HELP!!!

😭😭😭

OMG I AM STUCK

[jaunty wolf]

Does anyone have any girly pop corvette designs

[cursive lark]

Not sure what that would look like, can you give an example?

[jaunty wolf]

Tbh I haven’t really seen any to give an example I think I saw one but it looked fake or premade

[cursive lark]

Oh that's not a corvette, that's a fighter starship

[abstract crow]

You could paint any ship design pink and white and call it "girlie pop", tbh

[eager sky]

Except I didn't see a pink paint option

[jaunty wolf]

Yeah just grey and purple

I would love pink, and again I’m fairly new and just got the game

So I don’t know much info

[abstract crow]

There's pink.

[elder iron]

Thats not corvette though, lol

[elder iron]

Also this one is probably edited in, since it uses two different wing types, I think

[abstract crow]

The ship they showed isn't a corvette either...

[jaunty wolf]

I didn’t know if it was or not I’m new I was trying to find corvette builds and that one came up my apologies

[abstract crow]

You might be able to get a pink if you used the blender app, but those color options never really seem to match what I'd expect them to look like anyways.

[jaunty wolf]

I’m on ps5 so no mods or anything

[abstract crow]

There might be a pink/yellow combo.

And a white/pink as well. I've never tried them, but I'm seeing them after googling them.

[elder iron]

Oh wait maybe that fighter does exist

[cursive lark]

You might be able to use the color transfer glitch if they haven't patched it

[waxen marsh]

Can someone help me

[cursive lark]

Basically place one of the decor pieces from the anomaly on your corvette and paint it, then copy that color to a part of the ship and then select apply color to whole corvette from that piece

[cursive lark]

With what? I can't see what your problem is

[jaunty wolf]

I hate doing that type of stuff! But thank u for the suggestion

[hardy oracle]

If you're looking for pink, you can get something like this color by painting a non-corvette items while in corvette mode and applying it to the entire corvette this way:

You can apply optional weathering to make it more pale too

[glass surge]

The only way you can do Pink on a Corvette is with "the Black hole in the wall sign" you get from the quicksilver vendor at the anomaly and doing the color glitch

[hardy oracle]

No way, almost half the decor items in the interior build list have color, you don't need anything specific. All the chairs, tables, flags, many of the boxes, lamps and plants too

[cursive lark]

That's the color transfer glitch explained by someone who's able to provide pictures

[elder iron]

The quicksilver shop signs use freighter colors

[signal trout]

Does anyone have any tips on manoeuvrability? No matter what I do I can’t get it high?

[cursive lark]

S class pulse engine modules and Medusa reactors on supercharged slots

[elder iron]

Also put corvette engines next to pulse engine modules

[signal trout]

Does the ship shape matter at all?

[elder iron]

No

The number and type of parts might matter but even if they do the tech adjacency matters far more

Generally it seems like more parts = lower maneuverability, but tech more than makes up for it

[signal trout]

Oh

[elder iron]

If you have three engines and at least one Medusa reactor, you should be pretty good for maneuverability

[hardy oracle]

What Lambo and Aurix said are the most important bits, but you can push it even higher with a polo figurine surrounded by an artemis and tentacle figurine and two ship trails. And if you can get access to it, adding a photonix core from a starborn runner also helps

[signal trout]

Oh

[elder iron]

Thats for pushing the limits, but getting started just make sure the right technologies are touching each other

[hardy oracle]

Yes, totally agree. Do that first.:)

[waxen marsh]

I am trying to make a munificent

I need help

[calm shoal]

i can attach these wings onto each landing thruster, 2 on the other side and the one in view, but the one to the right for some reason doesnt let me, anyone know why? bug?

[turbid maple]

Sort of new to corvette building. How do I find new modules that are different than the ones you buy?

[cursive lark]

Find a planet with salvageable scrap, it's a resource you'll see when scanning the planet from space. The salvage containers on those planets will have Corvette parts, and any part, not just the ones you can buy

You can also use parts obtained from the containers to trade for other parts

[calm shoal]

well new design for the green beetle

better picture

[turbid maple]

Thank you

[waxen marsh]

Hey does anyone know how to make a munificent?

[plucky tartan]

My ship is almost complete!!

[vital remnant]

Honestly the best corvette I've ever seen

[plucky tartan]

You lying but thank you 🙏🤣

[orchid robin]

How do I build a good covertee

[tardy musk]

For me it depends on what kind of ship I’m going for (i.e mining ship, offensive, etc) then I’ll look into styles of those kinds of ships or just try and make my own from scratch with no reference

For example my main mining barge style ships are very bulky or boxy looking, whereas my main corvette for combat is more sleek, pointed etc

[orchid robin]

Like this

[tardy musk]

I’d probably have to see a closer angle but the design looks good

If you have the Aeron ship parts from the redux expedition you can make some neat sleek ship builds

Lemme try and find one of my ships I use

[tardy musk]

I would say this style, it does look good but maybe cut the length a bit and add more decorative pieces on the hull such as winglets, aerofoil and such

[waxen marsh]

Does anyone know how to make a munificent?

[orchid robin]

Aight

[tardy musk]

Here is one I made with the Aeron parts. I basically just made a small skeleton with habs for structure then slammed a ton of Aeron wings and other parts on it

And this is one of my Aeron themed mining barges

[orchid robin]

Wow

Do you have any tips on base building if so go check out mine in the base channel

[waxen marsh]

Does anyone know or can help me build my munificent?

[daring flame]

rate my corvette i spent all day on ( i did use a tutorial on youtube)

[tardy musk]

FOR THE REPUBLIC 🗣️

[warm swift]

manuficent?

[sick fern]

Hi, would something like this be able to build as a corvette or is it too wide?

[tawdry field]

ik abt being too wide

but i think the cockpit and getting the wings thin will be difficult

[hoary agate]

Would need decor parts as corvette parts

[molten dove]

I don't really get the difference between titan and thunderbird units

[tardy musk]

Maybe but you would 100% need to do all sorts of glitch build techniques

[sick fern]

Okay thank you all for the info

[nimble stirrup]

that's sick!

i think it's a pretty neat fighter

[dapper escarp]

So it works as a design, or is there still something off about it?

[nimble stirrup]

I'm not the best at Corvette design, but I think it looks good

[scarlet condor]

Jesus Christ ok that's impressive

[dapper escarp]

Fixed pictures

[dapper escarp]

Changed design

[raven rover]

I dont think itd be too wide

The build area is pretty big afterall

But you'd probably need to do a fuckton of glitches to get those angles

Or if you can use blender

Thats even better

You dont even have to worry about the build area limit too

[warm swift]

my new corvette star venger

[warm swift]

why this rockepeller wing doesnt work?

is it a bug?

[dapper escarp]

Yo zreme, which of these looks better

[warm swift]

do you have pictures of the top or birds eye view of the first one?

[dapper escarp]

Need me to take a higher one?

[warm swift]

yeah that looks better

[dapper escarp]

Nice, then it's a little improvement. Maybe one day I'll be able to make something that doesn't look clonky

[orchid robin]

My weapons aren’t shooting out the turret it’s comeing from the sky

[warm swift]

anyone knows why the oter rockepeller not working?

[orchid robin]

How do I fix it

[orchid robin]

Dude how do I get that staff

[warm swift]

try to re summon your ship

[orchid robin]

That works thanks

[warm swift]

what stuff?

[orchid robin]

Your multi tool

Staff

[warm swift]

oh staff sorry haha yeah an expedition rewards

[orchid robin]

😭😭😭😭

Also I’m pretty sure that’s a visual bug

[warm swift]

yeah maybe a visual bug coz this one both rockepellers are working

[orchid robin]

Is there a way to cheese trading advanced modulas

[orchid robin]

Good

[hardy olive]

You could always set your purchases to 'free' somewhere in the settings

[warm swift]

sorry for the awkward parking lol 😆

[jaunty jasper]

When i get home and get my corvette, i wanna make something like this but wider aswell. (Pic from google)

[warm swift]

daaaang just saw it in space anomaly

[plucky tartan]

What is that

[jaunty jasper]

Htf can corvette get that big.

[warm swift]

i think its a fortress of underworld 😆 dang just the idea of the ships design even my brain hurt

[plucky tartan]

Laot of that looks like a hologram

[jaunty jasper]

@plucky tartan Iam gonna make something like this.

[plucky tartan]

You got this bud that's an easy build

[warm swift]

manuficent?

[plucky tartan]

Idk what that is

[jaunty jasper]

But its gonna be wider (that 1 is to thin for my taste if u get my point)

Is that a name???

No, munificent

Ooooh from starwars

What’s the best covertee weapon

[chilly berry]

i accidentally swapped the corvette i built with my old one and i lost it is there a way to get it back?

[warm swift]

try reload restore point

[mighty dirge]

attempted to try make something similar because the design is pretty good to me

[warm swift]

i got this weird all modules must be connected, but it doesn't show me any red part i try re installing the parts but problem occurs, anyone know the fix?

[chilly berry]

i think its a little late for that

well its lost but atleast i have a corvette

[tardy sun]

Finished really huge one.
I wish I could color the interior too

[jaunty jasper]

It does look good. But i feel like its a but thin, i mean 1 hallway at the bottom. Maby 2 or 3 wide. Idk

[tardy sun]

And unexpected problem I'm experiencing: I cannot land this monster in most planets

While Huge Wing makes ships much cooler, It makes terrible in real use

Any opinion about design?

[hardy oracle]

I never land my corvette anyway, i just leave the seat and hop out

[jaunty jasper]

And atm. I cant build anything atm. I just downloaded nms myself. I got nothing so far

[raven rover]

Yeah same, i just almost never land my corvette

But i'd land on water tho

At the beaches

[raven rover]

imo the back end is too cluttered

And theyre very loosely connected

[orchid robin]

Where do I get a landing pad for one

[jaunty jasper]

There is none atm

I think

[orchid robin]

Dang it

[waxen marsh]

I am trying to build it but I think I failed

[plucky tartan]

Think 3 dimensionally

[plucky tartan]

This is my first Corvette build. I have watched many videos on building tips and glitch building to get this far

[chilly berry]

its a design off of internet but i modified it a bit

[plucky tartan]

🔥🔥🔥

@chilly berry

These are the stages my Corvette went through

[waxen marsh]

I don’t understand

[plucky tartan]

This is a fairly easy build to accomplish. When I get home today I will throw it together. If you have time, watch some ship building videos on YouTube

[waxen marsh]

I couldn’t find any

[plucky tartan]

You lying bro I've seen many ship building videos

[waxen marsh]

I am sure there are Venator builds, but I want something of a more realistic size I can pull off, because Munificent is smaller

[waxen marsh]

I meant munificent videos

[plucky tartan]

I don't mean for your ship specificly

[waxen marsh]

Oh

[plucky tartan]

Just ship building in general

[waxen marsh]

Oh

I saw the clipping video

[plucky tartan]

It will give you an idea of how pieces work

[waxen marsh]

Are you like a Corvette build master?

[plucky tartan]

Brother, are you being serious or trolling

[waxen marsh]

Hmm?

I am serious

I have been trying to be content/happy with a build I like

[plucky tartan]

I've already stated that this is my first Corvette build

[waxen marsh]

Oh

Sarry…

[plucky tartan]

You're fine bud

[waxen marsh]

That thing is huge

[plucky tartan]

It's maxed out at 100 pieces

A lot of glitch building techniques

And many more to come as I'm not done with it yet

[waxen marsh]

100 pieces of hull additions?

[plucky tartan]

My Corvette is maxed out on actual Corvette pieces

My hab is all base pieces

[jaunty jasper]

Got my tiny corvette. Sold a few parts i dident whant. Gonna use those credits for fuel and landing cost. So in a way i can look for corvete parts forever lol

[plucky tartan]

Find a nice system that dissonant and has a salvage scrap planet

You can use your Corvette to quickly "dig up" pieces

And you won't have to travel very far

Just loot the whole planet, warp to another system then warp back and repeat the process

[waxen marsh]

Can ships have mining lasers?

[plucky tartan]

They are strong enough to damage the pieces in the ground

[raven rover]

no but you can shoot stuff

[jaunty jasper]

Dont have the scanner to find those systems yet. I dont even have acsses to the nada space station. Iam that early game

[plucky tartan]

My dude you should have it within the first 30min

Access to the anomaly

I started my first game with an expedition so I could be wrong

[waxen marsh]

I saw a ship using mining lasers to mine asteroids

[plucky tartan]

I had a ship and atlantid hyperdrive within the first 1hr

[plucky tartan]

Those are reg lasers

[waxen marsh]

Phase beams?

[plucky tartan]

Corvette weapons

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, but that's specific to the expedition, not the normal progression

[plucky tartan]

That's what I mean by this

[hardy oracle]

That said, there's really no reason you have to get to a purple system to salvage. Salvage is available in all color systems

[plucky tartan]

I was using it as an example of quick progress

But if it's a normal starting game then it won't be like that

[hardy oracle]

Yes, if you saw a ship using lasers to mine, you were looking at the phase beams. That is the only weapon that cannot be used to salvage though. It has no AoE at all. All other ship weapons can dig up salvage at least to some extent, though I'd say that the rocket launcher is also highly impractical if the world you're salvaging has any trees. It interacts weirdly with flora.

[jaunty jasper]

U can join me if u whant and help me.

[waxen marsh]

Is the ship place have a size limit?

[jaunty jasper]

@plucky tartan Here it is

[waxen marsh]

Why dissonant?

[plucky tartan]

Cuz it's easier to have it for later than to search for it later

Although, they aren't rare by any means

Just saves time

[plucky tartan]

Your Corvette? You can definitely use that to farm pieces

[jaunty jasper]

Yeah. Its tiny ik. Save is only an hour old by now

[lament abyss]

Still good to farm pieces

Wanna join and help?

[plucky tartan]

I'm at work

Besides, if I was on rn I'd probably be building my ship

Been working on it for over 50hrs now

[solid gazelle]

I got my kid a gaming PC for Christmas. I’m thinking about picking up a copy of the game just to build Corvettes on it. (Currently play on PS5.) Wanted to know what I’d be getting into first. What’s the process for building something crazy like a star destroyer? Do you need to use wire glitch techniques and stuff like that? Or are there programs that can automate that?

[hardy oracle]

The system isn't really meant to be used for large ships like star destroyers. You're going to need to mod the game to build something like that.

[hardy oracle]

I think you might barely be able to make something approximately the size of the millenium falcon without modding, and even that is a little uncertain. You'd either be really pushing the limits or scaling it down a bit.

[solid gazelle]

Thanks. Was just using that as an example. I don’t mean the size so much as being able to design a ship outside of the game using AI. Like if I wanted a ship that looks like a flying squirrel.

Would I have to build it myself in game after designing it. Or is there a way to build it outside of the game. I hate the in game building tool with a passion 😂

[hardy oracle]

Some people build their ships using blender, but you're probably going to have to look elsewhere for advice on that

[solid gazelle]

Ok. I’ve seen people mention it. That’s what I’m curious about.

[hardy oracle]

That's a little outside of what most people here seem interested in, but you might be able to find guides on youtube or something

[waxen marsh]

Hey does anyone know Star Wars ships well?

[solid gazelle]

I’ll check the other discord discussions and see if there’s anything relevant

Thanks

[hardy oracle]

Good luck!

[plucky tartan]

What's up???

[waxen marsh]

I am stuck. And I feel like I did my work wrong

Trying to make the munificent

[plucky tartan]

First, what does the base of your ship look like

[waxen marsh]

2 habs and a front hull link

[plucky tartan]

You haven't tried any other ideas?

[plucky tartan]

What mode do you play in?

@waxen marsh there's little tricks you can do to make items snap anywhere. If you learn them you'll be able to build the ship you want. You have a good base design for it, now you just need to be more creative with the pieces. Play around with build heights, look at all the pieces you have available, and use the picture for references

[waxen marsh]

Normal

[daring flame]

worked most of the day on this one

[plucky tartan]

My Corvette is modeled after the federation Corvette from elite dangerous but with my own twists one it

I watched videos on how to build the millennium falcon and that gave me the idea for the back end of my ship

A video of a ship build called "dream thief" helped me get my angles

A Corvette that I got from the nomansapp gave me the idea for an open hab so I scanned YouTube for tips on how to place base items on your Corvette

I pulled from so many different resources to learn how to build

And after about 55+hrs this is the results

It's not even fully built yet

[waxen marsh]

THATS WHY IT LOOKS SO FMAIALR

[waxen marsh]

This part i don’t understand at all

[plucky tartan]

I use creative mode to build my Corvette

Everything else I switch back to my normal mode

[plucky tartan]

Which part

[waxen marsh]

The entire section

The section of your post I replied to

[plucky tartan]

@waxen marsh go on YouTube and watch beeblebub

[tardy bear]

Just throw everything in but the kitchensink( still might be in there)

[tardy bear]

Might be the parts from the build menu the round lights you have some parts dont show red but need to be connected try putting habs on them to see if thats the case

[waxen marsh]

Those are prebuilt?

[plucky tartan]

What do you mean?@waxen marsh

[waxen marsh]

Thumbnails

[plucky tartan]

No idea what you're talking about

[waxen marsh]

I am confused

[calm shoal]

brand new corvette

[tiny oar]

How did you do the front of the ship?

[hardy oracle]

Check out the offset tutorial in the pins

[waxen marsh]

Luck

[tiny oar]

in the sense that I can't get the two parts to stick together

[hardy oracle]

I know, you need offsets to do that.

[tiny oar]

I've tried everything, I can't do it

[hardy oracle]

I don't know what else to tell you. The offset tutorial shows you how you can accomplish what you asked for.

[modern condor]

Can you build a corvette in creative mode and use it in normal mode?

[waxen marsh]

Tbf the offset linked is really bad (to me atleast)

[elder iron]

@tiny oar try following the steps I sent after this message

[hardy oracle]

No, but you can toggle on free build mode in a normal mode savegame to effectively build it as if you were in creative.

[modern condor]

Thanks

[fallen canopy]

built my first corvette

[wheat drum]

yo someone can trade w me advanced parts?
