LLI Sa-Billisu (Vanilla) (No-DLC)

No DLC version of the original Sa-Billisu, which required to Decorations DLC.


Introducing, Sa-Billisu
Designed in 2094 during the recolonization of Mars as a conversion kit for Settlers to modify their existing craft with, it's overnight success with traders and cargo-haulers meant that soon enough there simply weren't enough vehicles on Mars to convert. Seeing this, Lamplight Industries decided to tweak the product around so it could easily be built, in full and sold directly to clients on Mars.
This is the first vehicle that Lamplight Industries have produced specifically for the recolonization effort, during the first attempt at colonizing Mars Lamplight Industries produced a cargo-rover, however that has since ceased production.



Background
The sales pitch is somewhat true, in that I did convert something to make this, except it was originally designed as a drone that I could use to come to whatever base I was at during the Escape from Mars scenario. (I waypointed all the medbays I had and used this drone to come to me so that I could store my tools somewhere before I used medbays to teleport around the place.)

I've also used this in general survival as backup storage for my mining and salvage ships. It's also been used to carry the materials to construct a small forwards operations base. (2 turrets, a wind turbine, 2 small cargo containers and a heap of ammo)

As for it's design, I was partially inspired by the trader ships from Meeple Station, and also because I wanted to try and make a brick that looks good. Whether I succeeded or not is debatable, but at least it's shape does make it very easy to line up with stuff for docking. Also, any space it squeezes into only needs to be 2.5 large blocks wide, and 1.5 large blocks high, although that is a squeeze, maybe go for 3x2.

Gameplay Info:
NOTE: PCU and block count might be slightly different to what they should be, as I just copied this text straight from the original version. Only changes were replacing the Industrial Cockpits with vanilla ones, conveyoring them up and slightly changing the armor on the front.
