Now that I have finally finished the ship, I was able to make a video showcasing it and how it works, as well as release a final schematic, so here you are!
Here is the YouTube video showcasing the ship: https://youtu.be/s1XMuD5Ramg (It just posted so if it is fuzzy, give it a bit to finish processing)

Me when a cargo ship rolls up with a 250mm cannon:

@neon agate this thing is an absolute beauty
I love it
My plans are to mod it to comply with my servers requirements but other than that it flys well

I also think I will eventually add the elevator once it’s not complete broken haha

Now that I have finally finished the ship, I was able to make a video showcasing...
oh my god man you are amazing
i've been struggling to make even a small airship not start spinning into oblivion whenever i turn it
thank you so much
i might try to make this into an aircraft carrier 
uneven peak
a tip for that is to increase your distance between the props
and make sure they are spinning correctly
gentle badger
one of the problems i usually have though is that if i do turn successfully
the ship still moves in the direction it was heading before
just now it's not turned correctly so it's going at an angle
uneven peak
so if its going left, it will alwayse go left?
uneven peak
oh
gentle badger
and you literally can't get from point a to point b if you tried
uneven peak
again, increase distance between props
gentle badger
fair
uneven peak
then you have a wider thrust base. also start with a >1 rpm to see how they spin
gentle badger
i don't really know much about making good airships
uneven peak
so it dosnt actually move, but it sorta goes
gentle badger
i mainly focus on planes
gentle badger
planes?
uneven peak
i dont get it haha
gentle badger
why would they be huge
i only ever make really compact planes
huge ones are ugly as hell
uneven peak
the ones i build are massive
gentle badger
oh
uneven peak
idk how to get them smaller
uneven peak
bc i really want a small reliable semi fast menuverable figher plane to put on my bohemith airship
gentle badger
it can't run for extended periods of time thanks to it's fuel tank size
but it can do short bombing or fighter missions
like 5-10m
uneven peak
minutes?
gentle badger
ye
uneven peak
woah
neon agate
if inertia keeps it going left when you stop pressing left, thrust right a tad. the forces should balance out
gentle badger
if inertia keeps it going left when you stop pressing left, thrust right a tad. ...
that's what i do
and then the ships velocity doesn't change
but it's rotation does
neon agate
huh. idk i never try it at high speeds, always have the speed controller on low
neon agate
i want to experiment with using one prop for thrust and turning with a tail fin
neon agate
oh wait you're the guy that made the Dreadnought. Is that cannon auto loading?
gentle badger
yeah
neon agate
h o w
gentle badger
the dreadnought was kinda dogshit lmao
i can make a better one with clockwork
i don't really have much time rn but when summer rolls around i'll get on it
gentle badger
h o w
i did it before qf breeches were a thing, i just used a really huge loading system that took most of the middle deck
you can't see it cuz it's encased in steel
neon agate
because I want to make a battle airship soon
gentle badger
there are some VERY compact automatic cannons available right now
just letting you know
i've seen like 5x10 ones that have a reload time of like 3 seconds
it's incredible
uneven peak
cbc is beyond me
uneven peak

mods list? and what schem is it
neon agate
cbc is beyond me
cbc is a bit of a pain in this ass, is what it is
gentle badger
if you're in the cbc discord this link should work #1000117991477870654 message
gentle badger
mods list? and what schem is it
check desc
neon agate
a bit overly complicated
gentle badger
if you're in the cbc discord this link should work https://discord.com/channels/...
this one is a super compact autoloading cannon
gentle badger
everytime i put a cbc on my airsips they dissasemble
break it and reassemble it
uneven peak
ive tried that
gentle badger
once you assemble a ship that has a cannon on it it breaks it
it should work if your break and replace it
gentle badger
cbc is very hard to start learning
theres like no documentation
to the point where its annoying
but once you get to understand it it's not that complicated
gentle badger
Kwizzle Hazzizle makes some good cbc tutorials iirc
neon agate
to the point where its annoying
YES
I was experimenting with it a while ago and was actually getting frustrated lmao
gentle badger
WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETERRRR squib ratio
neon agate
WHAT THE FUCK IS A ~~KILOMETERRRR~~ squib ratio
YES LOL
gentle badger
YES LOL
have you tested if it's buggy from the schem
i know in a lot of my builds
my schematiced builds break redstone links and other components when assembled
create schem saving is scuffed
uneven peak
im sure i can fix links and stuff
neon agate
ok so
it turns out, any redstone links on create contraptions don't work
like their IDs aren't stored
and I have heard that in order to fix this, instead of using a Create mod bearing for rotation, you can use a VS physics bearing
gentle badger
and I have heard that in order to fix this, instead of using a Create mod bearin...
oh and belts break upon assembly
do you use a lot of them?
neon agate
belts do break upon assembly yes
the belt on the steam engine has to be replaced on assembly
think its just a glitch
gentle badger
i hope that's the only belt you got
neon agate
I dont have issue with redstone links on assembly
it is lol
I used to have like 3 for long rotational force chains up in the balloon and just replaced them with the encased chains
gentle badger
@neon agate hey man so i'm trying to start up the cargo ship
and the propellors are not working
the right propellor (looking at it from the back) only responds to the a key on the controls
and the other buttons do nothing
neon agate
Did the redstone logic paste correctly?
neon agate
Send a screenshot of the logic
gentle badger
pressing a also turns the ship the opposite way
gentle badger
what
neon agate
It pasted fine for me earlier
gentle badger
no they do lmao
neon agate
Oh do they just disappear in F1
gentle badger
i'm using rubidium so perhaps its just my client
neon agate
Smh now I'm booting up my PC and getting out of bed just to test this
gentle badger
you know that redstone links don't show the IDs on ships right?
but they've never really shown on ships for me
neon agate
Because all the redstone links pasted for the fly by video
neon agate
You assembled each propeller right?
gentle badger
yeah
gonna delete rubidium extras to see if that fixes things
it's known to fuck up VS
neon agate
Just incase ig, heres some screenshots of the logic
Right Engine
gentle badger
yeah i checked it and the logic in the props is there
neon agate
left engine
gentle badger
GODDAMN I JUST REALIZED RUBIDIUM EXTRAS WAS SCREWING THINGS UP
i've been living without being able to see redstone links this whole time
good lord
gentle badger
looks the same to me
neon agate
sometimes if you delete the ship and re-paste it in, it will work
gentle badger
i hate how whenever you quit your world and log back in your ship falls to the ground
neon agate
right
gentle badger
i think it's just a VS bug
god the ship takes forever to rise
i can't even tell if the balloons are filling with air
neon agate
Put on goggles and look at the ballooners. If it says 2mb it's working
gentle badger
says -2mb???
neon agate
Means the entire chain of rotation is going the opposite direction. It's the boiler being fucky like I mentioned in the video
gentle badger
no it's not
the belts are moving in the right direction
and its rising
ok things are working fine
neon agate
Wtf
Someone told me if it says -2mb it means frosting is being sucked out of the ballooners not piped in
neon agate
It is. It doesn't bounce for me...
gentle badger
oh huh
neon agate
It might bounce a bit when as it rises but not too much I ever noticed
neon agate
I wonder if it's bouncing because of the -2mb messing with the inflation
neon agate
Try reversing the rotation at the engine output (the long shaft on the side of the wall in the bottom floor) and then making sure you flip the pumps so they're all piping the right way
gentle badger
i can make a qf breech bombing system pretty easily
gentle badger

i think its alright, everythings working fine now
neon agate
Still bouncing?
gentle badger
nah
neon agate
i can make a qf breech bombing system pretty easily
Fun fact: If you rotate a slab of dispensers full of tnt overtop a slab of redstone blocks via a very fast bearing, it will cause destruction beyond comprehension
gentle badger
nah i think i'll try to refit it with an aircraft carrier for now
gentle badger
Fun fact: If you rotate a slab of dispensers full of tnt overtop a slab of redst...
true
but tnt is hella expensive
mortar rounds are EXTREMELY cheap
like 5 andesite and an oak slab
for the same blast
also do you know any way to get the ship to sink faster
it's very slow in lowering itself
neon agate
That's just the way balloons are in VS sadly
gentle badger
damn
gentle badger
i guess that's why you should make docks on like mountains
neon agate
And if you open the balloon, it's not like the air slowly leaks. No the balloon just completely empties and you fall straight out of the air
carmine barn
how can i assemble it?
uneven peak
And if you open the balloon, it's not like the air slowly leaks. No the balloon ...
Use a piston but only let it extend just a bit
neon agate
Use a piston but only let it extend just a bit
i think for the purposes of balloon detection, the block is either there or it isnt
if its like halfway there, it doesnt matter
gentle badger
@neon agate so i've refitted the ganymede into an aircraft carrier but i'm facing a problem
it always rises to the same height no matter what
a height above where my planes can fly
since the higher the altitude the harder it is to fly
neon agate
Try changing the speed of the balloons
gentle badger
Try changing the speed of the balloons
the lift lever doesn't really seem to do anything besides make it take longer to rise
no matter the lift it always rises to the same level
gentle badger
oh yeah maybe

now i know my xyzs
carmine barn
i literally mis - copy pasted coordinates

so uh whats the proper way I should bluperglue everything together from the schematic cause idk
carmine barn
Just use the bluper command
