The Nesasio - Light Cruiser

Description
Inspired by "The Nesasio" Cruiser in FTL.

I hope you like it and have fun !
- - -

The Nesasio is a Light Frigate designed to take advantage of its speed and maneuverability to planify lethal surprise attacks against other small frigates or cargo ships. While its hull wouldn't be very effective in a sustained fight, it deploys an impressive array of frontal weapons to rapidly disable any potential menace.

The Nesasio can also serve as a powerful support vessel due to its modulable tool hidden at the rear of the ship.
This ensures that the ship is highly versatile :
- a welder enables ally ships to be repaired.
- a grinder gives the possibility of recycling scrap from defeated enemy ships.
- a drill allows asteroids to be mined, which brings in more cash.

Characteristics :

Weapons (all easily accessible and reloadable from within the ship) :
- 3 rocket launchers
- 2 missile turrets
- 2 gatling turrets
- (2 small turrets to protect exits)

Speed : Good (while moving forward).
Turning : Good

Mass : 1 800 000 kg
Reactors : 1 large
Batteries : 6
Gyros : 35
Thrusters : 58 (2 huge ones at the back and some hidden ones)

Others :
- Retractable Landing Gear
- Retractable Rocket Launchers
- Lift under the ship for the crew
- Working Conveyor system (cargo, assembler, "tool") (reloadable rocket launchers and turrets)
- Two Exits (rear of the ship and under the ship) (with depressurisation room) (protected by small turrets)
- Connector under the ship (connected to the reactor)
- Protected and easy accessible reactor
- Optimised control panel to facilitate navigating, to locate important subsystems rapidly
(Name Ex: "Reactor --- --- --- --- ---")

Notes :

- Hidden thrusters (Don't active "thruster damage" !)
- There is a "projector" for easy repairs but it's completely bugged for the moment (pistons and rotors colliding o.O) so I wouldn't recommend turning it On.
- The hull under the ship is more resistant (2 layers) if you need to sustain heavy damage.
- Paint job is not finished (I'm not satisfied with it, yet)
- Unfortunately, it's very slow when moving in any other direction than Forward (I don't really know why, a mod with more powerful thrusters would probably fix that)
