WillieSea Wow thanks is my first ship in game

    every time i wanna upload the image it says that something went wrong...

      gvd

        Tagarik On such small ships, it would be difficult to 'improve' it without making it much bigger.

        I like to have at least 4 lasers on my small fighters.

        Here is your drawing. Its a very nice designed ship, looks great!
        And my upgrade which I will add to my Legendary mod. 🙂

        Cost: 65,700

        WillieSea Can't wait to see the Legendary mod 😃
        Thanks a lot

        WillieSea hey can you improve this ship
        the green area usually gets destroyed could you make it better with keeping the shape
        the red area u can completely change i want it to kinda look like a bird tail keeping about the same length
        if you do paint it i would like it to be dark colors
        try to keep it under 2 million
        it uses the star wars mod and the additional weapons mod

        like italian flag

          Mrowte thats not the final paint job but it does look like the Italian flag

            simon1954 but very nice ship

              Mrowte yeah but i wasnt realy happy with the tail
              but when i did test it it only lost 100k cost vs 3 enemies with about equal combine cost
              and the insides were kinda sloppily put together

                simon1954 I would love to help but I do not use those mods. Sorry!

                upgrade this:

                good luck XD

                  WillieSea can you at least give a few tips

                  Upgrade this pls, it's very inefficient, guns keeps getting unmanned.

                  simon1954 If a part of the ship gets shot a lot, especially those two 'prongs' then they are the damage absorbers, and they should be mostly armor and lines with shields. The enemy likes to target the first strong weapons it come in range of, or exposed power cores. And those guns at the end probably are getting targeted.

                  If its getting destroyed because your crew cannot keep power supplied to the shields, then some reorganization is needed. Place crew and power cores closer to the shields. If the crew is busy loading weapons, then you need to add more crew to that area so they keep the shields recharged.

                    Uzidrate The crew may abandon the weapons because its too difficult to get energy there. remove a few shields and put in some passages. Lets say, every third shield. Also, shields require a lot of power and crew, and I wonder if all those power cores in your engine compartment might be better suited where all the shields are.

                    Try improving this

                    Uzidrate There's no way to get that shield density to work, and I don't think I can make that weapon density work either. The forward standard cannons and lasers had to go to make space to armor the ammo and power feeds for the large cannons and electrobolts. The flanking beam armaments had to be gutted to make room for the missile ammo feeds and they're still slow.

                    The upside is that the weapons actually keep firing and there is very little chance of chain detonations. It should also be slightly faster and more efficient in FTL. Oh, and there's point defense now. That's kind of important to have.

                    If someone wants to iterate on the design, I think the missile section needs the most work.
