I'm getting to something.
I started to play around with the ship's modules, replacing them and modifying them, but at the beginning, everything was wrong. Nothing was like I pictured it, so I cancelled everything and returned to the basic blueprints, the ones I had before. So then I started questioning myself on what we lack, what would be useful for Genesis that we can't find anywhere, by simply using that Repair Ship as a base for my work.Repair Ship is used in engineering for repairing hulls, reconstructing them in a way.
I was about to simply give up, when I realized that, the Repair Ship could be used for shielding.
A ship that mounts energy field generators, yes. To modify one of the modular arms of the ship, so instead of releasing the nanobots, it can mount energy field generators.
This was a solid idea to begin with, so I started to work on the ship blueprints. I cut the mechanical arm, then I started to replace that with something similar to a gun, or better, like a tube. That's where the generators would travel through.
But from where would those be gotten? How would those be mounted? And many other questions were risen, in the intend to make this concept a working one.
But back to the arm, it should be able to move in all directions, take angles aswell, so a gyroscope would cut the issue there. Obviously, the tube should be large, so it can fit any type of shield generator; maybe it can be a special tube which can get bigger or get smaller based on the generator we want to place . The tube would do it with the help of a sensor mounted at the beginning of it, before it "shoots" the generator. At the end of it, it can mount an magnet, which, when in contact with the hull or whatsoever, would get attached so there is no risk of missing the target.
I really like where this is going...but I'm long way from being done.
