Next in the GTEx* series (render/screenshot)
on: September 26, 2001, 04:42:00 pm
I've done the modelling on the next installment in the GTEx* series of Arcadia add-ons - the GTExE.

It's basically a huge engine that can propel the Arcadia at speeds of up to 20m/s. This is a much faster and more efficient way of repositioning Arcaida-class stations in-system.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well.

does the engine actually propel the station?

Or does it just pass through in a complete mess of collision detection errors

LOL! I honestly don't know yet. I once was playing around with a mission where I had an Orion jump right in front of the hole in the Arcadia. The "nose" of the Orion went right throught the Arcadia, but when the lower fighterbay runway area reached the station... *BUMP*!!!!   So I hope that's what will happen with this as well.

That way you'd have others like the GTExF (fighter/bombers), GTExC (cargo), GTExM (medical), GTExR (research), GTExE (engines - for relocating Arcadias), GTExY (Yard - shipyard for constructing (up to corvette class?)), GTExG (Gas refinery - a docking point for gas miners, or a gas miner in itself for stations inside nebulae), GTExB/GTExO/GTExN (blocakde/offense/node - a weaponry platform with all firepower concentrated towards one choke point), GTExS (Shielding for stations in close orbit of stars - think like the Star Wars books' shieldships - huge umbrellas).

      Sorry, mate. Fingering means something else completely.

Besides, that's a real nebula. I just can't remember the name, I'll have to check.

Finally. Key Hole Nebula.
