Author Topic: Large Spaceship  (Read 37570 times)

Alright, as soon as Xerces apps for ARES I'm gonna put him Cyanian and Tingalz to work on this.

Sweetness. I'm looking forward to it.

How about scaling things back to what's possible? What about a ship like the pelican, but just a bit bigger? Nothing fancy like docks or nomount scripts. Just a large spaceship (Have we ruled out a warp drive function?).
just a big spaceship????ARE YOU NUTS THESE IDEAS ROCK BUT THIS ONE IS JUST NUTS WELKNAIR and i mean just making it big without anything but interior now that is the nuts part

Cool down a bit.

I suggested this ship primarily due to our lack of such a ship. Those additional features would indeed be very awesome but would most likely cause massive amounts of lag or not be possible to make at all. I'd much rather have a scaled back version than discussing a cooler version that will never get made.

Ships with detailed interiors wouldn't be used for big space travel anyways. If I was aiming to cross Planets, I would hop into the ship that has the 5 slots with no interior in a heartbeat. Interior is primarily an aesthetics thing and the only reason that the carrier had the nomount script was so that you could walk around on top of it/land planes on top. Since I'm sure that we won't have docks (which would cause lag if we could manage doors to open/close to keep ships in) the only reason for wanting an interior would be for the capacity of being boarded. But here's the problem: Unless every one of your slots are full, a potential boarder can just turn off nomount and jump into a turret and start teleporting around the ship via the period and comma keys. I see no way to get around this without--- Yeah. I don't see any way.


So if someone agrees to actually make it, it's best not to complain.

ok?

Funny thing is, I'm actually kind of working on something similar to this. A pair of things, actually. Although that don't exactly have visible interiors, as I'm still not very good at that, I'll see what I can do.

Are you talking about a build or an actual vehicle?

And actual vehicle. Two, actually. I have the second open in Blender.

Cool. It would be nice if you could post a WIP pic.

Gggggotcha!

How big would those be?

I mean by how many people would they carry?
