Place the mod folder (LANGYSPIMPMYSHIPMOD) in
\Program Files (x86)\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Starbound\mods\

This mod Replaces the default ship with a "building platform" made entirely from blocks so you may make your own ship from scratch.

IT is the same idea behind mods like FCSMod and buildaship, Though We each stand alone as separate modders doing very similar things.
Thanks and acknowledgements go out to Princeofmar5 and Skhmt for their respective work that inspired me to make this one.

Originally I started you out in a ship much like the others started you in a box, however with the new way 1.0 uses ship upgrades as a part of the quest mechanic it soon became obvious that this is a bad idea.

You now will be given a platform, you can fall to your death from this so use some care when first entering the level.

Since 1.0 You can not use an existing vanilla game and just replace the .shipworld file I have found it retains a level of block data in the .player file from the "upgrades" and this leads to unmovable invisible blocks and background objects in your build, removing this data is beyond the scope of this mod.

ALLWAYS start with a fresh character, there are various ways to transfer your blocks to a new character one would be to log into a server build a planet base dump everything there and go back and get it in the new character.

COMPATABILITY TO MULTIPLAYER
When you first use this mod you will receive allot of building blocks from the ships ai after you "boot it up" for the first time (in a new character) once you have done this store the goods in the 2 provided ship lockers or in your personal inventory.
Next DELETE the QUESTS folder from the mod's directory
This folder -> \Program Files (x86)\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Starbound\mods\LANGYSPIMPMYSHIPMOD\Quests
This should revert the game quests back to the default and allow for online game play with your buildable ship.
also deleting the entire mod its self will do the same thing, however if you delete the entire mod DO NOT upgrade your ship as upgrading it will move it to a default ship model.

UPGRADEING A SHIP
You will be able to upgrade your ship to tier 8, but as I set the ships default setting to higher than tier 8's settings there is no real advantage.
HOWEVER if you for some reason choose to do this or find yourself forced to do this by a mission (like the mine mission) the default platform area will revert, all other blocks around this area should remain unaffected but the starting platform with transporter and chair and lockers will revert. my suggestion AVOID UPGRADEING THE SHIP you were warned.
