I Built My First Combat Spaceship to Battle for LOOT!

Here’s an idea for you, you could test how the bomb bays work in space. Do they get released with enough velocity to bomb targets, or would they be better suited for mine laying

[@thunderstruck206]

Been wondering this since they mentioned zero g and my thinking is they are shunted out with a little force so they would just float? I'm working on a build now that will (hypothetically) scatter the bomb bay bombs like a cloud behind the ship

Since the new space map loops infinitely you could do a multiplayer challenge where you use the compass block to make your ships only go in one direction and since the map loops you can speed up and slow down to evade fire. You can still move up and down and left and right just no backwards

You dont want an heavily armored spacecraft be able to fly in high gravity or dense atmosphere it becomes sluggish and power hungry. the more thrusters you add the more amour the more sluggish. same goes to anything else. A miner doesnt need wings or many thrusters in space and can hold way more what would he do on a planet. for transport you have specialised ships or even rockets for. the list goes on.

[@clashofcraft9725]

Maybe add some vertical quantum rodders to prevent the drift of your crafts when you're yawing

[@Pumpnineteen]

kosmo is using vertical qrudders on hinges, and uses them as airbreaks by turning them 90 degrees. Works like a charm

[@squish_nerd]

They will tail the spacecraft pitching up as the quantum rudders always face away from the direction of your craft.

[@techno1561]

[@tvh4260]

What about the stabilising gyro

[@morrandomr]

Idea: make a flak cannon (a gun that launches debries) using tractorbeams in space

[@Luziferne]

You could theoretically "deactivate" the rudders with logic blocks. The setting on a logic block go from -1 to +1 and represent % of activation of the connect block so if you set one to 0 and connect it to the rudders, they should be equally at 0 strength when you activate them through the block. Any command from another block/cockpit steering would be added to that, so it might needed to be set to -1 to offset any steering inputs when boosting… dang I want that DLC now to test the physics of them

[@loganroman5306]

I think the logic blocks would activate pitch rather than strength sadly.

[@Luziferne]

@@loganroman5306 Yup, thats what I fear too But thats something we can only test when the DLC comes out

You should tighten your shields to make them as close to you ship as possible to make your shields harder to hit and therefore make it harder for you to die

[@GummieI]

[@rudolf_box8440]

def looking forward to the update

[@antonschmitz2255]

Being finally able to toggle stabilization will be sooooo nice, currently you can't use logic block for a toggle because that adds a slight delay and the stabilization doesn't work

[@Zionity]

Something that would be cool would be if you continued your series of recreating historic planes, but do it with historic spaceships instead.

[@sparegiraffe3457]

Using some servos with a gyro attached with leverage you could possibly make a powerful catapult

[@CHECKERCE]

To be honest I don't really like the Quantum rudders I mean it's cool to have them and if you want you can of course use them but I personally think that the fun part of space is that there is no drag and the challenge that comes with that to maneuver your spaceship. With the Quantum rudders it's almost as if you're just on a normal map only without gravity. if you could toggle them off then I would probably use them but just have them off all the time until I want to come to a complete stop because that's really difficult without them.

[@JoeBurgerCinematicUniverse]

If you put wings and conventional control surfaces on your space craft, it might improve the performence in atmosfeer. The wings will help counteract the g-force of the planets and will do nothing in space because of the lack of air.

You should be able to use two quantum rudders for braking, basically like air brakes: one turns up and the other one down Also pretty sure you can move the shields front and back by setting their offset to different values on both parts

[@GummieI]

There is only a vertical offset though, which is up and down (when placed above/below the center of the ship)

[@rccookie6202]

@@GummieI I would assume „vertical“ depends on the block orientation and should be the axis that the shield is half open on

[@darksteeldiablo]

I've played luteral hundreds of hours of space sims. You need to strafe. It's all strafe. That let's you move out of the way of your targets line while keeping sights on them. I'd strongly recommend you program a flight assist command block comp, that let's you fly more like a plane for simple flight but combat is a whole different ball game. Use the lack of gravity to help you so instead of enforcing movement you simply change your trajectory. I can't really explain it better than that without showing.

[@Nevir202]

You can do quantum "air brakes" by having quantum rudders mounted on hinges, so that they flip out, perpendicular to your path of travel. That will induce a turn in addition to slowing you, but if you balance them, such that they cancel out each other's turning, (EG one folds left, other right) you're left with just braking.

[@RandomGuyWhoLikesGames-n4p]

you should turn it into a VTOL

[@VoidGamingZero]

Could you also try using your ship on a normal map, it would be interesting to see if especially the quantum rudders work there?

[@Viirrvill]

this Scrapman's ship looks a lot like the Eagle in Elite Dangerous in the shape. i am a bit disappointed though that he did not add the stabilized mug on this thing

[@adirmugrabi]

you should do an emp only fight, where you have to fly close to the ground, or in a dense area. that way the randomness of an emp shot, will make you hit the stuff.

Hi scrapman, I have been watching you for around five years and made my introduction to engineering, when I saw a community Xbox, the first thing I did was download trailmakers.

[@edgaro.6097]

You should put your sheilds front to back, so if they get emp'd from the front you can turn and run until it Regensburg and if you get emp'd from the back you can flip around and rush. It also might be smart to do 2 layers of shielding with on a little bit bigger and on a 90 degree offset, so you only lose a quarter of your shielding instead of half.

[@danholt5991]

do a mythbusters like do blasters have recoil

[@steeljawX]

Anyone who is still confused what greeble is, just watch any of the first (as in the original trilogy) Star Wars movies. You'd think that "more advanced" space ships would be smooth and plated, but you look at the bridge of a star destroyer or just the surface of the Death Star, there's just a ton of greeble that's been stuck on. It makes it look like they might do something. Only problem with that is that there's literally no function or backstory to them. Greeble makes plain flat surfaces look busy by having stuff put on there. There's no right or wrong way as far as whether or not to greeble, but if you do it half way between clean and greebled, it will most likely look bad. Only specific cases does it actually look good, like Boba Fett's ship, Slave I. Smooth on the front/top, greebled on the bottom/back.

[@Hlebuw3k]

Fun fact, in reality white and other reflective colors are often used in space, because parts that are painted that way don't heat up as fast. Since there is no atmosphere and air to quickly dissipate heat, all of it has to slowly trickle out via infra-red radiation.

[@jacksonstarky8288]

1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16, not 1/8. 🙂 But the neat thing about designing space fighters is that wings don't need to provide lift... and as demonstrated here, can serve purely as weapon mounts. I'm loving the new assortment of shades... and the black and red looks amazing.

[@distraveler]

Scrapman how about this: Rebuild the fighter and fight these enemies again, but this time NO REPAIRS. You might use more shields than 2 though

[@steeljawX]

I also expect to see a multiplayer challenge where you create trolling torpedoes and use them against each other. Trolling torpedoes as in an anchor block on the end of a straight suspension connected to either a rocket booster or space thruster. The point being if they hit you, they'll stick on and keep firing so you'll be stuck spinning in which ever direction you got hit in or be shoved in that direction. Basically until either one of your ships is un"fly"able you keep tagging each other. Or you can always add TNT and make them space missiles.

[@SonOfmowgef]

Could you avoid having one of your shields having to take more damage than the other by putting them both on a rotating servo? I'm really interested in seeing what that would look like.

[@dragonmasterlangeweg7625]

If you did that, you might want to have four shield generators so no parts would be sticking out and to make sure you don't end up with a rotating weak spot in your shields.

For explosive firepower in space you should try some of the older weapons. Thetank cannon and gunpowder cannon shouldn't have any drop in the zero g area, and the pirate base has less than normal gravity, so they should have less drop than they normally do.
