Why is there an exposed reactor?

[Colonol Dekker]

Ok. . Fair point if someone were to model a destructable panel or hull section over the reactor I could live with that. Or a triggered "hood / bonnet" that flaps open to expose it.

[Aardwolf]

If it could be set up so that with normal use it's not visible (for the canon fanboys) but with tabling (or possibly just setting a subsystem to destructible/destroyed in FRED) it would be visible / a destructible submodel, that would appease us (I think). Me at least.

Yay, appeasement!

You are just making it more difficult for everyone, come on guys... I've never seen someone complaining about having windows in ships and yet a window would be a terrible terrible desing flaw in a space-faring ship.
You could even pretend it's not actually a reactor, and say it's another window or something like that, and let's face it... the retail back was kinda boring anyway.

[Colonol Dekker]

I'm not complaining. I'm just saying stick to the obvious shape.

[Aardwolf]

I'm not complaining, I'm making uncompromising demands without authority to back them up!

@rodo
the spaceshuttle has windows

anyway, how about this (unexposed reactor, instead a reactor core installation port)

I love you. Can I have your children? Will you model them for me?

[redsniper]

I approve, nice work.

Though I have an urge to make a Deimos with a jacuzzi on top now...

[Galemp]

Glorious! I think that's a much better solution.

Of course, there's no reason to discard your previous reactor; just have it exposed when the top Reactor subsystem is destroyed. Make it look like we're... well, looking into the core of an exposed, critically damaged reactor.

Why'd you paint the little tab at the very back brown? I liked it in gray.

[ragingloli]

i accidentally deleted the layer that had the grey. i'll redo it later.

[Rodo]

noooo! the reactor is gone

[Commander Zane]

It's still there, just not wide open.

[Kolgena]

Wow. Looks awesome, if somewhat female. And I must wonder, since I know nothing about modeling... Is it common for even a professional game modeler to be able to put stuff out at this sort of pace (given that s/he works part time, as I assume ragingloli does?)

[blowfish]

Wow. Looks awesome, if somewhat female.

*Ahem*

[Droid803]

Not to mention that all ships are "female" anyway, no matter how much of a symbol of masculine dominance they are.
Uh...yeah.

[General Battuta]

I think he just means the reactor area looks kind of like a vulva, if you hadn't picked up on that.

*shrug* Whatever. Design is design.

[Snail]

Ugh, you've got a dirty mind.

[General Battuta]

No I don't. I didn't think of it until it was pointed out.
