Agreed, I played with the Page up and down and it worked. Thank you so much for that tip. I wish they added cameras, like the sensors, so you can quickly switch between all directions if you wanna go first person.

The side pods are more likely to be damaged and the main hull gives better protection for the thrusters. Thrusters aren't good to lose when you are in over your head.

The missing window is directly above the cockpit. Odd that it is missing on my spawn of the BP. How come you didn't put the thrusters in the side pods? just curious. I wonder if the devs will implement thruster damage like in Space Engineers.

Just did some testing: Can't find a missing window in the blueprint. Mine shows no O2 leaking. The camera view may have something to do with recent updates. Try this: "V" for alternate view. "Alt" to adjust the view, adjust the view by using "Page Up" and "Page Down" and zoom back with mouse wheel until you get the view where you roughly want it. Hit "Alt" again (maybe twice) and the view should go back to the standard "from rear of vehicle" viewpoint. (Worked for me anyway.) I didn't make a second level with the walkways so the pilot seat could be quickly accessed with the jetpack. I also like to leave my blueprints a bit open ended so people can customize to their tastes (one of the reasons I don't include weapons as people like different weapon layouts.) Thanks for the feedback on the design, I appreciate knowing what can be improved.

Oh and there is a window at the top missing and I advise having the walkway sides become a second interior deck. Otherwise awesome sub!

One question: when I change the view I don't get the cyclops directly infront of me? It is further below the camera out of sight. It's hard to pilot when I can't see the sub.

It would bounce around, but I can't remember all the details as it was a while ago in Alpha stage. I just remember it being a pain to try and line up where to load and unload, as well as getting the distance correct. I believe they should have put in a coloured light under the docking port for easy lining up.

Pitty they didn't implement the forward docking port that is shown in early imagery of the game.

maybe the cyclops goes sideways to ensure that the suit (while jumping) has a better chance of being captured by the cyclops docking arm... Did the cyclops right self after you docked the suit or did it remain sideways?

That was a picture I found with Google. But early on I did have some crazy adventures with my cyclops. When I would try and load/unload my P.R.A.W.N. suit too close to the surface it would lead to all kinds of interesting events, such as a lobsided or destroyed cyclops.

How the hell did you get the cyclops to be on it's side in the last image?
Okay that is AWESOME! It will be my command ship and mobile base!

I need it in Space Engineers now! lol
