with the ship released in the inbuilt ships, the diagon death dealer, it got me building other angle framed ships. how ever being built on an angle i did not have the advantage of the mirroring tool as i would have for more conventional methods. is there a possibility for implementing a mirror tool for angle framed ships in the editor.
also another interesting quirk about an angle framed ship is that when attacking another ship it will pick one side or the other rather than taking advantage of its defacto front arc based on its angled frame this limiting its available fire power to one side of the forward arc. this can be tuned to its true front arc but the default is a side.
