Description
The Heighsteel Omnibowser (translated literally as "All-Fueler") is a titanic Deep-Space Logistics Platform designed to fuel and maintain entire Flotillas, far away from any more permanent logistical installation. Equipped with full production, habitation, and 2 independent dry-docks, Omnibowser stations often serve a purpose which resembles an FOB during extended fleet actions.

The Omnibowser, at least in its modern wartime configuration, is armed to the teeth. Dozens of turrets overlap and cover it from attack, though its largely static nature means it's often supported with smaller defense vessels or separate defensive satellites. Its armor is thick enough to shrug off many of the calibers fielded at the time of its construction, but recent advances in weaponry have brought its external durability into question. Even still, the "bones" of the Omnibowser are famed for their stability. In one now famous battle, several enemy vessels rammed themselves into Bowser-20 after having all other offensive options exhausted. The station absorbed the impacts and was largely unaffected, though the upper habitation section suffered a hull breach.

Taking advantage of its position out of natural gravity wells, the Bowser uses advanced A-Grav technology to better take advantage of its shape. Either side of various sections of the station are accessible on foot both ways. Orange access walkways mark where a gravity swap can be made safely.

Disclaimer: Giant builds like this always have some silly little oversight. I'll of course try and right any mistakes, and if you have feedback, please leave a comment!

This station was designed by me in creative, and built by the faction HONK in the recent LK Survival Iteration 25-1. This proved to me that it was survival ready, and so the time to upload it has come. Enjoy the fact there's not a single sub-grid anywhere to be found, meaning it CAN be fully printed. This server came with several mods, and so some of the stations systems are configured to be compatible. The main 2 things I think you should keep in mind if you intend to use this station, is that by default Gatling Turrets are set to target Rockets, and that there is only 1 Jump Drive onboard, a single Prototech one. In the context of the LK server, these 2 choices made sense.

It was primarily designed BEFORE Apex survival came out, so its really not suited for food production. I DID include some of the new Oxygen farms, and a single food Processor to make it a bit easier to use.

@BANE unfortunately, not a chance. It only has enough thrusters to stabilize itself for jumps. You must build it in space.

Coincidentally I saw this right as you commented @Sad Cat

The satellites you see are called "Heighsteel Auto-Stockades" and will be uploaded "soon", along with a 3rd Heighsteel-brand station I haven't quite polished to my liking yet.

In one of the screenshots there looks to be some automated defense satellites around the station. Is there a blueprint for those uploaded?

@Kevin Starwaster

I just updated the description to include that information. Small oversight
