I'm going to try RavagedSociety's build since this one just blows up. I get it though, old design. I just wanted to say this was always my go to Small flyer and wanted to thank you for posting it. Good luck bud!

Sorry you're having issues Madman. Take note this is a 3 year old build. If it's unplayable it's due to game updates

Says to be an A-58 but the LCD panel claims it's A-65. Literally unplayable 0/5 out of 10

Of course I don't mind RavagedSociety! It's hard to find the time to go back to all of these creations and shine them up every patch. Thank you!

Bit late to the party for this ship but found your designs recently and, as most ships on workshop, many obviously didn't conform to the latest CPU standards. But they were just too beautiful to pass up! So as I've found myself often doing, downed an MRE for the energy, threw on my welder's gloves, and went to work. (This being before I realized Bedevere had also done some modifications.)

Hope you don't mind but went ahead and posted it and if you have any advice to improve it, I'd be all ears!

I made a v11 version of this where I removed the constructors, added storage in place of rcs and the space for eventual tier 4 CPU blocks and moved the storage managers to the side, etc. You can put the warp drive and upgrade some engines to level 12 engines and be at 89% with a tier 2 cpu block with good results. Adding a shield doubles the cpu to over 30k and you need to go to tier 3 at that point. I would be more than glad to share it with you.

Also been enjoying your twitch channel.

RE: reverse thrust power - I eventually adding two revers thrusters on the wing clusters. I recycle the old ones I remove until I eventually upgrade them as well after cpu block upgrades.

Awesome Liliandra! I'll take a look as well. I've been messing around in it too and currently I'm a little over so I'll try what you did and see what it's like!

Did some poking around in 10.6. For the most part, the Nyx is fairly easy to convert to CPU compliance. Removed all but 2 RCS' and shifted the core to one of the Constructor areas (added an additional shutter). SV is in the T2 zone at base. A fully loaded, warp enabled, Thruster Jet S with a single constructor is in T4 with ~4K CPU left over. The downside is that a shield is just not happening with it's current CPU count. Maneuverablility seems to remain about the same, though turning when at a hover is slower, apparently all craft need engines at all corners now for hair-pin turning.

Thanks Liliandra! yes the reverse thrust is a problem until you swap out the thrusters on the side to the Thruster M. Then it becomes a bit more tolerable :P

An excellent starter and beyond SV. Cheap enough to make on starter planet without depending on RNG for cobalt, expandable to last to mid-to-late game. Enough cargo room and lift to handle (reasonable) loot from a POI. And above all, it looks great!
About my only complaint is the the low levels of reverse thrust.

That’s correct Bathur! Thank you! Currently working on a single seater version

Awesome design! I really like this one, its looking badass & have functionality. Thanks for sharing us. But i don't understand one thing, i am not a multiplayer guy, one of these cockpit serve as a passenger seat in multip. games?
pmota Aug 13, 2019 @ 9:45am 
thx, I'll give it a try!
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 13, 2019 @ 8:54am 
Correction. the side cowl you will need to remove one more block in the back of each cowl. the thruster will appear to stick out in the back. details.... :P
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 13, 2019 @ 8:09am 
Thank you Darkpax and pmota! @pmota it took some fiddling around but I managed to get slip the 1x3x1 in from the front using the drone. I'm actually thinking about altering this blueprint for the side cowls. I may bump them out one more block.
pmota Aug 13, 2019 @ 3:55am 
Awesome ship. I did upgrade it with armored cockpit but that would require more advanced ores so perfectly good choice NOT having it on the BP. Also great hotpoints for weapons, really easy to upgrade to more gattlings and then more stuff. I do have a problem with upgradring the thrusters: the reverse thrusters, side ones, I wasn't able to do it - just curious to know how you guys managed to fit the jet S ones on the side (I know, they ARE the same size as the slant ones you have there but I can easily remove and refit those, but not the better ones). Awesome ship all in all 5/5

Wow, amazing vessel, thank you for this beauty!
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 12, 2019 @ 4:36pm 
Thanks mhal9000! Me too! Currently stuck on rebar. I had a rough start with the Drones. Within a minute of planting my first base a wave of 3 blew it all away before I could do anything. Now I’m just east of tactician hoping his turrets hit em first lol
mhal9000 Aug 12, 2019 @ 3:49pm 
I'm rocking this one along with my HV for the August challenge on the Anvil server right now! Great stuff!
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 11, 2019 @ 5:19pm 
Currently using this till I can get into the aeres
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 11, 2019 @ 5:19pm 
Thank you mhal9000!
mhal9000 Aug 11, 2019 @ 5:08pm 
Great starter ship that transitions well into mid and late game with a few modest upgrades! Well done on this one!
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 11, 2019 @ 10:46am 
Also helps with night vision at night. Not as many bright flares
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 11, 2019 @ 10:45am 
Just a cool feature
Revelationz Aug 11, 2019 @ 10:12am 
will lights actually give your position away in this game or was that just a cool little feature you decided to add?
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 10, 2019 @ 4:58pm 
Thanks Bedevere! It’s my current go to in my game. I’m going to be pushing out a one seater version soon
Bedevere Aug 10, 2019 @ 1:43pm 
Amazing ship. I love how the upgrades work and even the ability to improve the engines. A one stop solution that can grow with the player. I even upgraded the cockpits when I could. Great aesthetic as well. I kind of dig the stealth mode.
XenoAstral  [author] Aug 9, 2019 @ 10:05pm 
Thank you SavageTurtellini!

Awesome ship, I love the upgradability and the aesthetic. Keep up the good work!

Thanks jrandall!

Wow, this looks amazing! Awesome work!
