revisions of the AI ships - Jinx - 06-13-2010
since applying an old hitbox over a new model can cause problems ( unless its a vanilla box ) - i guess "not so well" - but thats something to care for later - i mean, they re not even skinned.
this is really just about if those players who actually play AI core characters think they can live with these alterations.

I hope you know that the harvesters are long gone and the SMA has become the new official AI faction correct?
As an AI player myself and flying both of these vessels I think I have a few comments.
The drone does look a little unprotected and "thin", if you can understand what I mean. I like the idea your trying to use that there is no real reason for a bulky ship seeing as there is no people inside. The thing that most people liked about the current drone is that they look "full" but if you look closely the ship is hollow, giving that empty feeling that the AIs should give.
The cruiser looks very nice. It keeps the same basic shape but with more meaning of what makes up the ship. It shows that "full" but empty feeling I was talking about earlier seeing as the front isn't just a block.

yes, i know that the harvesters are gone - but its still their concept of ships... oh, well.
about the drone, yes, you do have a point there - i ll see what i can do to fill it up with stuff without making it one large solid sperm. ( especially since applying a really "accurate" hitbox to such a ship would be VASTLY unfair to other players )

Interesting.
Still maintains the bug appearance, I see.

My mine just rule 34'd those two ships together....
Regardless, I think they look FABULOUS. Just give the drone some more mass and it will be perfect.

Drone is cool as it is.
It's "arm" of main body, cruiser.
Nice ships, I like them.
I wish drone would get hitbox with those holes in hull. <.<

I'm not quite a fan of the drone, but the cruiser looks nicely done.

I have to agree. The Cruiser seem to look a lot of an AI ship that was built on a awkward - yet, symmetric way. Also, I dont about the others, but the whiskers that are in the sides seems cool for having it as scanners. (thumbs up to Jinx, as always)
Fighter wise: While it has the empty and "no cockpit" for a pilot - It looks wicked. Looks very fragile though, but I read somewhere that Jinx will fix it (hopefully). But, to make a hitbox on that fighter will be a pain in a human eye. I mean, making a hitbox is easy, but the vast of void space on the fighter - yeh, i dont want to be in the hot seat at all.
Anyways, I like the models. Thats my opinion.
