@Garaman: Ok. Was wondering since it is one of my favorite early ships.

@Pads No, I haven't tried to adapt this to RE2 yet. Looks like if you pull one of the generators out it will fit in the Core2 CPU range and still function, but I don't know how optimal the thruster layout is. And, the basic extender will require some aluminum foil and a few extra titanium ingots.

Is there a version of this for RE2?

I used the Hatapo a lot in Vanilla and it was great, I just tried it in RE2 multiplayer and still great, but I did need to add one CPU extender otherwise it's over the CPU by 1000 or so (I think it was like ~77%).

@Pads I took a look when 1.7 came out. I cleared out a 2-block space for a single shield capacitor (there's a hatch by the floor near the rear door) but I didn't look into adding multiples. Would likely require adding another extender which starts to push the limits of the frame.

Can probably put another one in place of the pipe deco in the cabin.

@Garaman I assume that there is no way to update this to work with the new shield capacitors in RE…is that correct?

@nolarkon That's a heavily modified version of Momo's SI - HellMole BX7 . It's a good compact body to play with for a starter miner.

What is the HV shown in the pictures with the Hatapo?

Really solid all around starter SV for reforged. The cargo and mobility is great and the fact that it can carry my mining ship around on on its back to warp places is awesome. Nice job making this. The only downside is I cant seem to put it back together that well after getting parts of it shot off too many times though that's more of a me issue... One day I'll get the mats for an advanced repair bay....

This has been my go to ship even when I used to play vanilla (used the other version) and I see no reason to try other starter SVs. I even recently upgraded the cpu and shields. I am just about to upgrade the thrusters as well. I also found that there is room in the back to add more cargo extensions to give even more space. I still carry this docked to my CV and find it good as a small trader ship to use to fly to stations on a planet instead of using my CV.

Thank you for the amazing ship.

Absolutely 100% the ship i want right now. Great job!
Cheap and all one needs to get neodymium for the starter CV.
This ship is exactly what bridges the gap between a miner and a CV. The constructor on board can process neodymium, cobalt, titanium and pentaxid. Perfect!

Great ship, all i ever wanted and even more, wouldnt build better.
It`s just a best starter sv.

This has been serving me really well in RE from the starter planet through to pretty late game as an away vessel from my CV. I've upgraded it with more turrets, and a series of manual fire weapon configurations. The most effort required was upgrading the generators deep in the hull, but minimal exterior repainting after. It's a great vessel :D

Awesome ship, I us this with the reforged Meerkat start miner. Together they are a very cheap early game powerhouse that will let you get a ton of resources very fast and be off in your CV in no time.

Nice design ! I like it. I love the fact that it's upgradable too, and thanks for sharing your strategy against those pesky drones !!

@Valcare I'm glad it worked out. I'm not entirely sure how that fixed it but as long as you can use the ships I'm not complaining. Enjoy!

You solved the issue. Here is what I did although I don't understand it. I found that I was subscribed to Reforged Eden 1.5 but not Reforged Galaxy. I subscribed. Started a new RG game, typed sbp in console, spawned Hatapo. An "unknown" error occurred but the ship spawned. Used Alt-O to save a test version with a different name. Surprisingly, the new ship had a forbidden block. The original Hatapo (and 5 other RE SVs designs) "lost" their forbidden block status. I don't understand it but I do have access to your most excellent design in RE now. Thank you.

@Valcare I'm still not sure what's causing your issue. I would say try the following to see if we can get a clue:
1) In an RG game type 'sbp' into the console. This will let you spawn the ship for free even thought it's "illegal". Spawn in a copy of the Hatapo.
2) Use Alt+O to save the ship you spawned as a new name, like "hatapo_test"
3) In the console type "prefabinfo hatapo_test". That will print out a list of the specific forbidden blocks.

Let me know what it says.

Garaman, thank you for the quick response and most excellent SV. I did re-validate my Empyrion files and it found two errors. After fixing the errors, I am still getting a forbidden block error with a clean validation. If others are not seeing it, I will continue to try to troubleshoot it but am open to suggestions. Thank you again.

@Valcare I just tested in both RG 1.5 and RE 1.5 Testing. I don't see an issue with forbidden blocks. Can you try re-validating your Empyrion files through Steam and see if that fixes the issue for you?

Currently generating a forbidden block in Reforged Eden 1.5. Awesome SV so looking forward to using it again.

eh, things happen :P main thing is that we know it can work and does most of the time xD

That's...horrible. You should not have to dismantle and reassemble a ship in order to use it. I'll dig around to see if this is the bug I'm thinking it is. In the meantime I updated the BP so it spawns with the engines active. I have no idea if it will help, but it's worth a shot.

@Markos Figgins I had the same issue when I built it. I removed all the thrusters and replaced them and everything worked fine.

works just fine for me..

Will rebuild and try again :)

thank you for being helpful

Hmm. Only have one idea of what would cause that, and it's an annoying multiplayer bug where for some reason a ship you're piloting will stop and the pilot just won't be able to move it at all. It can usually be fixed either by relogging, or by having someone else hop into the pilot seat and move the craft. It's like the game gets confused and thinks the pilot is actually a passenger until it resets. I see it catch Twitch streamers sometimes.

sure did, even had my brother double check that everything was fuelled and on, just sat on the landing pad reengaging and disengaging the landing gear, figurred it was a landing gear issue so removed them and ended up with an essential brick on the landing pad..

@Markos Figgins Sounds odd. It has 90 tons of cargo lift on a 1G planet, so I have no trouble flying it with a reasonable amount of cargo. I hate to ask the silly questions, but did you turn the thrusters on (it spawns with them off)? I'm genuinely curious as to why it's under-performing for you.

Is absolute crap and can't even lift off the ground let alone fly...

Thanks!

The version on this page is for the Reforged Galaxy / Reforged Eden scenario. For vanilla, you can use the version posted here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2483817468 .

Vanilla.

@Carnoth It shows as spawnable for me on the Anvil RE server. Are you loading it into a Reforged game or vanilla?

As of 5/15/21 contains forbidden block.
