very nice model indeed, this kinda stuff is exactly what discovery needs in real, more things to discover - more stationary undockable ships, more nonlootable wrecks (some alien / unknown etc.), more anomalies, good job :yes:, would be nice to have it submitted for next version of disco
Pros: Looks sweetttt your crusade for next gen line is really consistent and I like that.
Cons: While I am being biased the official LSF wouldn't be using it much. BUT I WOULD SURELY MAKE AN INDIE LSF just to fly this. And so would the indie LSF's which I have no problems with it.
:Then actually reads:
Oh well as a base thingy Oh yes that would be awesome for Ellesmere.
Edit: *looks where the link has taken him* OH....media -1 for not reading at all Sorry Jinx
thats also a point of it... - when its just an object in space - i can give it a very simple hitbox ( like a cylinder ) - and it doesn t need balancing.
the mesh "can" be used for a player ship at some later time of course as much as you can basicly use an asteroid base as a playership, too if you d really wish to.
however - this is just one of the things that we sometimes miss in discovery developement.... things to discover. what we desperately need is more "stuff" without a real meaning for "balance" but a meaning for lore. and not everything we see should go like "i want to use it, too" - but it may be beneficial if some things we see are simply reserved to NPCs in a way.

Indeed. Balancing wears me out. Having cool stuff like this without worrying about it is nice. You make good points. I am sitting in Sigma 60 for some time now not a single thing but an unnamed planet "Unknown" but nothing else.
I find it silly to point out but...random debris in the empty system could provoke pages of RP... I am not even joking! If I find one piece of debris in Sigma 60 I am going to get all over it and RP it to DEATH!

Besides, HF has sword-nosed ships copyrighted now. XD
