Thanks for the idea, and the video!

Both the ship modules and the crane-under-crane ideas are part of my vision for this set. Unfortunately I'm getting busier these days and don't have a lot of time for assets, so I think I'd prefer to devote my time to the family of new assets I've got in the pipeline (model modifications are super time consuming, unlike recolors).

I was planning a simple recolor of the stock game's old jib crane to serve as the straddled crane, with rails outside the gantry width to be used for the horseheads. I definitely want to do ship modules as loose props as well as arranged like ships partially completed to plop into the drydocks. These shipyards just seem empty without spare chunks of ship lying around.

Would it be possible to ask you to make this one even taller, so we can use the horsehead crane underneath along with having ship modules on one side. (so maybe wider too) Speaking of modules, I hope they are on your list!! :steamhappy: Can't wait for more awesomeness

Would your ship building assets include a real Harbor/River Tugboat prop?

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I tried a prop version, but the game's default LOD distance for props is a lot smaller than buildings, which means that you have to be nearly underneath the gantry to get hi-res, and I thought that just looked bad. Anyone know how to edit that? I've seen a few veteran creators do it...

Also, a smaller one-slipway version and a floating drydock are on my to-do list. I'm on a crusade to fix the lack of shipbuilding assets on here.

Nice one, looks cool would love to have a smaller yellow one, maybe half of the size and as a prop version !
