Mbuna Luxury Transport

Description
If you enjoy this creation, please consider giving it a like! It is good motivation for creators and helps to combat a recent wave of downvoters.



Lore
While larger shuttlecraft and yachts are a common sight at the ritzy spaceports of Earth, the Mbuna Luxury Transport remains the longest, heaviest, and most expensive craft rated for terrestrial urban flight. Produced in limited runs by the Malawian industrial conglomerate Mtuwa, the Mbuna is prized by fatcats and collectors alike for its flashy styling, state-of-the-art digital computer systems, and the peerless ability to legally navigate forests of steel, glass, and pedestrians.


Alternate Liveries are Available!
"Isla Felis"

"Business Class"

Landing Gear
The Mbuna features a scriptless retractable landing gear system with a built-in connector, stairs, and a single camera for flight and landing alignment. The gear is resistant to low-speed collisions, Klang, and self-adhesion.



Chopper Mode
The Mbuna is capable of hydrogen-free flight using the Heli Assist script. Press button 1 on toolbar 3 to toggle this mode. The ship will lose thrust if scripts are not enabled.

Animated Displays
The Mbuna features animated avionics in its control seat, produced from the Blarg's Fancy Flight Info script and an animated button panel managed by the Automatic LCDs 2 and Easy Automation V2.0 scripts. These will not function if scripts are disabled, but do not affect the ship's behabior.

Do you have a link for the HeliAssist script?
[IV]_Nomat May 23, 2024 @ 8:42pm 
@Benokt Thanks for the link, I'll dig around and come up with something =)

@Feuerswut This creation was not designed in survival! You are brave to try to create it. The angle of the jump drive may be impossible in survival.

@[IV]_Nomat The city is many images of buildings from Incanatus’s creations, painted to silver, more tall, and edited in photoshop to appear more warm and matte.
The city in my thumbnail may not be possible, because it is a combination of many images of buildings from that creation.

The buildings are from https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3086310928 .

The city looks more interesting against the background than the ship. Is there a blueprint for the world of this city?

Sadly, this clangs out while building it (landing grear especially)

@XRMissie Thank you! Please, if you are envious, build something better, and post it!

This is beyond incredible. Building envy overload lmao
