Title: Ships internal structure
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on July 10, 2002, 01:54:32 pm

Does anyone have any ideas as to the internal structure of GTVA cap-ships, I know scorpius has made a plan of the deimos, but that is all I can find. I ask because I want to add bridge subsystems to the ships.

As far as I'm aware, there's no canon data about what GTVA ships look like inside. Sorry, but I think you're on your own :(.

Well, then, can someone just give a clue where the bridge might be on the Orion?

Here would be my guesses:
[list=1]

• In that light strip that runs around beside the fighterbay, perhaps under the nose.
• The front of the lights section which protrudes from the Orion's belly
• Those lit sections near radardish01
• The raised plateau under turret12
[/list=1]

Hope that helps. :)

The flat section on the very front cause it has viewports to see out of... you might wan't to think about auxilary bridges further inside the ship, like i heard the colossus had 5 or something...

[edit]

im in the middle of designing the dechs on a lefiathon from a side-view, so when its done, i'll post it somewhere... that might help you somehow...
