omg i just have a new ship idea for 1.1 beta
MoO
Ok as many of you know i dont have much knowing of modding

but guess now?

i was just looking at that tanis base thing where the mothership starts

and if i rotate it it looks like a ship

if you guys just put an engine in it then you guys could have a new mothership or super battlecruiser

just an idea Smile

Yes it is possible. You could learn to mod and do it in fact. Smile

I don't know to much about who's doing what in this community, but I'd imagine that all the people who could do it are busy with their own projects.

That's usually how it is at other forums, at least...

We could make a ship out of it fairly easily, However...

1: It's too big for any functional use

2: It has no asthetic resemblance to any race in PDS

3: The Tanis model is already in use, as... well... Tanis.

Though we could always look through some of the other unused, pre existing hulls and perhaps .HOD them into being. Imagine a fully functional T-MAT planetkiller or Vaygr commstation as an immobile firebase...

Hmm, though this does possibly bring up an interesting idea for a race. I mean imagine, if a planet with life on it was near enough to the big structure that used to be joined with the Tanis shipyard, then it is possible that a race which grew from that planet would use chunks of the structure for ships, or it is possible that a pirate group would do the same.

Even a Halo model to scale with the HW models? Or a Super Star Destroyer on mp_Shield?

An O'Neill Cylinder?

I'm drowning under the sheer chore of maintaining a tactical task force worth of ship classes. Don't throw me the task of megaship warfare yet. I got a restaurant to manage in RL too. And a rapidly ageing family. Even Vaygr matrons don't have such workloads Pfft
