Absolute chad of a ship, 10/10 would bring home to meet my parents.

Derp! Yeah, it's been a while since I've Space Engineered. Was thinking old-school, turn the PB on and ship goes full speed ahead. Turning it off and on again does confirm it is indeed working properly (ship did seem awful maneuverable with the token ions). Needs cryopods because I am fucking lazy and the interior is a bit dark, but this might be my new favorite ship!

@Krougal Thanks!
The gravity drive relies on your WASD etc. keyboard inputs; you control it the same way you would a ship with normal thrusters (except in this case, ridiculously powerful ones lol). This script is pretty much out of sight, out of mind. It only may need to be turned on and off for things like docking (the programmable block is number 5 on the first tab of the controls) or recompiled if things in the ship change ownership. Hope that helps = )

Very interesting ship. Fucking brutal missile turrets. I love you for having nav lights!
How does the gravity drive work? I am not familiar with this particular script (I usually steal mine from FPC & Aly) and I feel like an idiot trying to make it go zoom.

@Senanthes Tysm!

@Taidyr thanks so much! You're absolutely right about the fine tuning; the ship has seen a lot of tiny changes over the weeks and months of its use.
This design was built around its central core of jump drives/gravity drives (something which I only just figured out for myself lol), and yeah...the redundancy and durability from that has definitely paid off. Hopefully there will be more where this came from soon, and I'm likewise excited to see your future builds : )

A very well designed ship for just about any task! Love it.

A very nice ship! Can definitely tell that it has seen some action and a lot of fine tuning before it was released.
I love the way how the internal systems are organized. Well protected, Redundancy with sensibly distributed components and still including an actual interior. Looking forward to see more like this!

MADAME CATASTROPHE, OR WATERLILY, YOU'VE DONE IT TIME AND TIME AGAIN. THIS THING FUCKS. IT SCOUTS, IT 1V1s (EASILY), IT RAIDS. THE MISSILES SALVO, IT'S BEAUTIFUL. A work of art. If you pvp, it will not fail you.
