Two Block Cockpit

Description
Always bugged me that all small ships had to be based on a 3 block wide grid.
Effectively the nose of every symmetrical small ship ever looks like this \ _ / instead of \ /

This mod adds a fighter cockpit and a normal one that sits on 2 blocks instead of 3.

Can create pointed nosed ships/aircraft with centered cockpits using this.


Edit: Little revision.
The rear and bottom connectors for the normal cockpit now work along with the front connector for the fighter cockpit.
The model hasn't been graphically adjusted to match the connector placement, but they do function.

Still working on the front connector for the normal cockpit and the rest of the fighter cockpit. Stay tuned.

@Xenophage
Unfortunately I don't have the blender/modeling experience to do that overnight. This is litterally my first mod and I just started doing this for this game last week.
Seems simple enough from my preliminary research. Just need the right positioning for the detector_conveyor and to make a decent passable model.
I'll try to get this done, but it'll probably take me a week or so. I still haven't given up.

For the lcd screens I am hesitant to do work on/expand other peoples mods. I pretty much just became a part of the modding community and for now I will probably stick to doing my own things.

Or you could just make one extra block that shifts the connector into proper position.

This should be ingame, just sayin...

Do you think you could make a compatibilty version of the two incockpit lcd screen mods? that would be perfect.

I'll look into the connectors.
Currently they wont work. Major issue is if I offset the connectors to connect with the cockpit, then they wont line up with anything they would normally connect to(weapons, containers, tools, ect...)
Which means this either becomes a modpack with almost every block offset. Or I make a custom connector just for fixing the offset.
Either way I'll try to get it fixed soon.
