[RELEASE] GTI Europa (previously: Small, somewhat crappy modular station)

(1/14) > >>

Shivan Hunter:
It's done as done as it's going to be! There are a few small issues and if I tried to fix them I'd probably never finish the damn thing. So here it is.

Includes a demo mission showing some possible configurations. The demo mission uses "allow daisy-chained docking", as otherwise the stations would split apart whenever one section was destroyed (which might be more realistic- test it out for yourself). It also treats the sections as different ships, without using SEXP trickery to average the sections' hit points or hide the ring sections.

Going to bed now. 2:30 AM. Pew pew pew.

So this is a small (diameter = length of Deimos, approximately) modular ring station I've been working on. This is what a fully assembled station might look like:

Core sections

Two core sections are available. This one contains some antennae that look a bit like a sensor array:

And this one contains two dome sections for observation decks:

This ring section connects to either of the core sections, and contains one dockpoint on the bottom:

Boring ring sections

This is the default ring section the others are based on. It takes up exactly 1/16th of the full circle:

Two end caps (one CCW, one CW):

And one filler section:

Ring sections that actually do ****

I'll start off with the good stuff. The defense section has 4 small point defense turrets, and 2 larger mass drivers:

The sensor array section will have the AWACS flag and enables long-range detection:

A residential section is lightly armored and good for civilian stations:

A docking section contains two larger and two small dockpoints (two on the inner side of the ring, and two on the long extended part):

Unless there are some serious issues, I'll need to start on UV mapping. UV mapping sucks. :(

Legate Damar:
Will the texture be green?

I think it should be green.

T-Man:
That's actually looking really good man. We need more civil stations and this one has a really nice look to it. Keep it up; shall be watching this space. :yes:

Cyborg17:
I'd use it.  :D

Nyctaeus:
Terran Karnak or Lucrehulk droid control ship after diet... Looks interesting. I always liked the idea of modular stations.
