(yes i know balance, but come on.)

does anyone know a city with only 245 people?

>similar sized ships hold > 100
>with the same amount of outfit space
>complains that 245 is too small for a city ship

It's a city-SHIP.

Spaceship scales are vastly different from city scales.


Of course, you can always go the long way, and get a WORLD-ship...

IF you can stuff dudes in the cargo bay, it shoud make some sense, i mean one tone of dudes is at lease like 10 dudes so thats like 1000 more dudes dude

That's 1000 more dudes producing CO2. That's a thousand more mouths to feed. that's 1000 more people's poop and pee that must be recycled. That's 1000 more gallons of potable water per day (assuming no-one showers in transit). That's 1000 more people who need places to sleep.

Attitudes like this one are why dozens of people get crammed into trailers and die while trying to cross international borders in real life, and that's on Earth, which is much less difficult to work with than outer space.

It's game balance. That's pretty much it. That's also why it takes more than 5 dudes to run and steer a ship built with futuristic computing power integrated. As such, it's not up for changing unless boarding is finally overhauled.

jeebus this was meant to be more of a speculation, O.o
Well, a world-ship can only hold ~1400 ayy lmaos, and there is an even bigger ship but it is a freighter, lol

well, world ships are optimized specifically for self-sustained life. Freighters are optimized for cargo space, Leviathans are optimized for combat, and Bactrians are built for all of them at once. They are giant city-ships, yes, but they are also carry a large armament (almost the same as world-ship) and one hell of a lot of cargo space (a little over double the world-ship's).

I don't think its fair though, to compare the baccy to the world ship, because of it's technological and spiecies difference. We also don't know the interior designs of any of the ships really, so its hard to say.
