Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - FINALLY A FIGHTER
Logistics vessels are hard to make because, while they have an important purpose, they don't exude that "killer" feel that making capships or fighters does. At least for me at any rate.

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - WIP Freighter
the rings look cool but then i don't know if it could or is allowed to dock with the containers in space.

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - WIP Freighter
If the rings could "open" for docking (by rotating on the pipes they're attached to- you might have to move some so they don't collide with the big panels) then go with rings.

Also- a small "tugboat" would be useful to move the containers into/ out of the big freighters.

A shorter version of the freighter- with 1 or 2 sections instead of 3 would diversify the Askaeldians a bit and should be easy to do.

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - WIP Freighter
I am planning to make it so that you can string together as many segments as you want, with a minimum of two (head and tail).
It separates that way to allow access to the individual pods.

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - WIP Freighter
Good idea.

A segment with turrets for the interior would also be nice.

P.S. The funny thing is that TotT will feature train-like cargo, passenger and military ships with modular "cars" of various functions attached to each other, pulled by "locomotives"...

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - WIP Freighter
I prefer the version with rings.  Although it doesn't make as much sense from a maintenance standpoint, it looks more like a ship and less like a large cargo container.

if there is any consistancy with the Shivans, it's their lack of consistancy - -Norbert-

Re: RELEASE: Askaeldian ships - FREIGHTER RELEASED
Made two more modules.

Gun Platform


Docking Block (example ships docked)



still got a bit of spit-and-polish stuff to finish for these before release (debris bits for destroyed cargo, etc). Because logistics ships are only good for blowing up, so they better blow up nicely. (okay, and for plot/fluff and whatnot)
