So, after quite a lot of work, I made a new totally custom space ship. The result is this: That's on zoom level 0.3 I would piece together a full picture but I'd probably get it wrong. Still going to try though. I myself really like what I did on the engines and the engineering department (Pretty much everything past the medical bay/kitchen. I can probably get closeups on that. I did use the Creative Mode mod again. I am also using the Lighting Overhaul pack, specifically the [No player aura], [Medium lighting] and [Some pass] options. This thing should also work in multiplayer but sadly, no-one in my friends list seems to play Starbound anymore, so I have nobody's server to potentially crash with it (You can still see the map file's original container below the ship)
I forgot to do that. I'll put that together in the weekend, I think. If I remember. The FTL drive stopped working again because the SAIL terminal reset to the pre-reboot state.
The only two parts of my ship that are really almost totally fleshed out. Interestingly, the Apex merchant that moved in had Tier 5 armor for sale, which I'm happy about because I still think Apex gets the nicest looking Impervium set.
Geez the holidays aren't kind on likes. My current char's ship. Couldn't figure out what to do with that central chamber so I left it. Any ideas?
I won't let this thread die! From left to right: Main island with tower, mostly decoration, but also has a teleporter and a chest. Second island, below main island, with stepping stone island decorated with anchor. Captain's chair and crate. Final island, to the right of secondary island, and a little lower. Top floor of building lines up with secondary island's building. Tech station, fuel hatch, and pet. Oh, I just realized that the ornate wood is missing from the second and third islands.
Mine's still in progress and it looks like shit compared to yours guys. People is so creative... I'll never get to that level ^^" I've got little colony scattered around the three first floors. On the fourth one is my laboratory from Frackin' Universe. Still a lot of work to do, but it won't reach the level of your AMAZING ships guys! PS: I don't wanna see this thread die as well!!
Here's my ship, I willfully took inspiration from a variety of sources, many can be found throughout this thread. So many great creations! Very excited by Starbound's potential and enjoying what's on offer. My Steam time puts me just under 50hrs since I bought it a few weeks ago.
All the lights can be turned off using the console on the top left. I rigged the alarm system to automatically turn the lights off when activated, for maximum redness.
My current ship The top deck where the medbay and science labs are still needs some more work; namely finding the right ressources from Frackin' Universe for all the devices and such. Otherwise I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
I had some ideas I picked up from my new colony that I wanted to apply to my ship ... then I got impatient and fish-axed the whole thing and rebuilt it from scratch. I think it's an improvement at any rate.
