Vanquisher Class Mothership

In 1 collection by bIrD_oF_pReY
Vanquisher Class Mothership Fleet

Description
Can be used on every vanilla planet and moon.

Disclaimer #1: No DLCs, Mods or Scripts were harmed in the making of this ship.

Disclaimer #2: I know that there are cooler weapons now, but I built most of this
about a year ago and can't be bothered to update everything.

Disclaimer #3: The ship has no other ships docked for performance reasons.

Disclaimer #4: It may take a long time to paste the ship, please be patient.

Disclaimer #5: This ship is about as detailed as it can be at this size. It almost hits the physical
shapes limit of the game, so there was nothing more I could do.

This is the Vanquisher Class Mothership.

It's a mothership. It does mothership things. Like mothershipping around a whole
lot of smaller ships and sending these smaller ships out to do smaller ship things.

I will break down it's features and capabilities in more detail in separate
discussions, which I have linked to below.

holy.... i blame steam workshop for how im just now finding this, this looks absolutely insane and ill probably be leaving more comments when i attempt to load it
bIrD_oF_pReY  [author] Jun 11, 2024 @ 11:25am 
I released it as a world now. Dunno, why I didn't do it earlier... stupid me I suppose. :D
gatocato Jun 7, 2024 @ 4:03pm 
will you release a world mod with the vanquisher as a station? for performance issues, since i can barely load the vanquisher alone haha
bIrD_oF_pReY  [author] Mar 28, 2024 @ 12:15pm 
Nope I didn't change anything on this in recent times.

The last time something changed, should be on the date that Steam shows, which is at this point almost two years ago...

How time flies... I really should be doing something new... two years between uploads seems quite long...
kbaars272 Mar 27, 2024 @ 9:31pm 
did u do add something new to it or fergot to say about it, because it won't allow me to project it?
bIrD_oF_pReY  [author] Oct 16, 2023 @ 4:44am 
Oh, I never put much thought into the facing of the first block I start to build from. I have a starting blueprint, with gravity, gyro and thrusters to hold the ship in place, while I build, in case something starts to go physics wild. Maybe that grid is already upside down.

Otherwise I only look to build along the red mirror axis but that can lead to it being upside down for sure. Now I need to check, whether the new ship is also upside down... XD

I can't wait to see what kind of ships you can build with a better computer. As for my favorite between the two, I don't know which it is. I really like the small grid interior details you did in the Vanquisher but I really like the Revelation as well. The fact that I can put more detail in the Revelation as well as the fact that I can fit all the ships in it without killing my computer is great. And when it's welding the small ships, it isn't stopping my game for 10-15 seconds per layer.

I am trying to do something cool with the Vanquisher though. Unlimited speed mod combined with kinetic devastation while crashing onto a planet. Not straight down either. I want to see what the aftermath looks like. If they add the ability to transfer blueprints to SE2 I think that it would look great there without the mods because they're trying to do things with voxel destruction that they can't in this game.

Also, one complaint I have about your builds. They're always upside down. I try to put a multi-sided decoration block on, and it's always defaulting with the top towards the floor.

Heyho, yes I also slowly move the mouse to get it going. I also keep the corresponding arrow button pressed, to keep the ship from decelerating the rotation while I reset the mouse. So I basically use two inputs to rotate the ship. The mouse input weirdly is much stronger, than the arrow keys, but luckily it also overrides it. I constantly have the arrow key pressed and then slowly move the mouse. That has generated the best results for me.

Some of the rooms got less attention from me than other rooms. The simulator room is one of them. I thought it was a pretty cool idea to have one, but after I built it I quickly moved on to other rooms. Originally I also wanted to do something with the displays in front of the fighters. Some sort of HUD for the simulation or something. Plus I wanted to make it so the people in the control room could toggle the fighters/some systems on or off, to make it more simulator(y). I just never returned to it, because there was so much else to do.

For the interior details you are correct. The DLC blocks in general have more shapes. Thats always the crux with these big ships. The bigger you build, the less detail you can put into things, without using subgrids. If I didn't use all the small grids to give the living spaces some detail, they would just be empty rooms, because even putting sofas and kitchens in all of them, would be too many shapes I think.

I have another ship in the piepline that is supposed to adress this issue through the use of multiple large subgrids. The interior subgrid of the main hangar section alone almost reaches the physical shapes limit. I still try to keep the overall number of subgrids low, hoping that it is better for performance than hundreds of small grids. But I am currently playing some newer games and don't have the time to continue it. It is in a veeeeeery long pipeline at the moment.
