ISL - Lania-IB 83 Medium Interceptor

The Lania is a versatile Interceptor with 8 fixed autocannons as its main armament and wing mounted hardpoints offering 3 payload options: bombs, guided missiles and detachable rocket pods. This allows the Lania series to fill multiple roles until more specialised designs can be put into production.

Various scripts are installed for convenience and better combat performance, including aim assist, docking autopilot, radar and missile guidance.

This is the Ion Thrust variant of the Lania, the Atmospheric and Hydrogen versions are available below:

• Lania-AB 83 Medium Interceptor (Atmospheric)
  
• Lania-HB 83 Medium Interceptor (Hydrogen)

In addition to a repair projection, the Lania has “payload projectors”, for the 3 loadout options, which can be cycled through using the TMC script interface. the loadaouts are:

1. 8 Bombs - a simple merge block & warhead, uses timer blocks to activate the warheads and detach the merge blocks in sequence
   
2. 4 Detachable Rocket pods - each with 2 rocket launchers, and a decoy block that will activate when the rocket pod is empty.
   
3. 4 Guided missiles - compact, WHAM guided missiles using the same thrust type as the ship.

The cockpit is set up with the TMC script for managing script settings and payload projectors, although time-sensitive controls, such as missile lock & launch or aim assist toggle still have toolbar buttons.

Guided Missile Controls

1. LAMP | Launch A Missile Program- Fire control script for guided missiles.
   
2. WHAM | Whip's Homing Advanced Missile Script - Flight control script for guided missiles.
   
3. Whip's Missile Status Script (for WHAM) - Cockpit display for missile payload.

Combat

1. Whip's Turret Based Radar - Radar screen for enemies, friendlies and asteroids.
   
2. Whip's Weapon Salvo Script - Used to stagger rocket pod firing.
   
3. HudDog - dogfight tracers, lead, autoaim - HUD display and aim assist functionality.

Display & Convenience

1. SAM’s Autopilot Manager - Used for automated docking
   
2. [TMC] Tree Menu Command NET - activate script, then navigate the menu screen (left cockpit LCD) using mouse cursor, “Q” for back and “E” for selection.
   
3. Automatic LCDs 2 - cockpit information display for power and storage.

Use button 5, on toolbars 4 or 5 to toggle controlling your ship or the screen interface.
When active, your mouse/arrow key movements as well as “Q” and “E” will not turn or roll the ship, but instead control the mouse cursor on the bottom left screen of your cockpit.

Alternatively, you can use buttons 6-9 on toolbar 5 to navigate the menu without pausing turn and roll control of your ship.

This ship is designed to be printable, using is the ISL Small Grid Printer Type 2, using one piston and 3 welders.


This design has some temporary blocks, painted bright red, to be removed after printing.

It also has one or more sub grids consisting of one block.
Each needs to be manually placed and constructed after printing.
