One of my ships was purposefully designed to be a sluggish battleship with 3 different types of automatically-firing turrets (for a total of 12 turrets). It has a Mobility score of like…6. yes, SIX. Haha. I spent way too much time adding greebling lol. In a fight, I basically just offload the Engine/Grav Drive power into the three turret types and let them melt anything that dares approach. I’ve got turrets of every type covering above/below/each side/rear of the vessel, so I can just meander into the middle of a pack of ships and let the turrets do the rest. Doesn’t matter where they try to run, the turrets vaporize them haha. I feel a bit like I’m roleplaying as a Borg Cube, but I’m fine with that.

I kind of stumbled upon your video while looking for something else but am glad I did. The look and layout of this ship is simply amazing and it works so well! I made two slight modifications to mine because I hate having to run through a ship when boarding/unboarding so I put the ramp in the front, and the docking ring in the space behind the armory. It helps things move just a bit faster for me. I moved the shielded cargo to the rear and added another cargo hold to have more room to accommodate the changes. My grab drive and reactor are both one step down from yours because that's what I had available, but they still work great. Thank you for this!

Or just being able to set connection points, like in the same way we can place view ports. They should add an interior view, with the ability to edit these connections and ladders. Obviously if there's only one connection point, then it can't change. But when you have two habs side-by-side or on top of each other, then you should be able to modify or have multiple.

At least you aren't penalized for buying and selling ship parts so you can build it and change stuff after you walk through it.

[@williamludwick77]

@@RotGodKing you are though. Depending on your Commerce skill (I think that is what it's called), you will lose credits selling it back after you confirm changes. While you're in the editor/builder mode, no you won't lose anything changing a part you didn't like. Just don't save until you're ready. Also, not sure if it's just me or if it's on purpose, but gather all the ammo you have inside the armory on display. If you save build changes, even if you don't touch or alter the armory, you'll lose it all. The main ship storage and some of the containers are safe but the cases and wall rack will disappear.

Just because it's been requested a few times, Parts: you can get all parts from Titan in the Sol System, hopetown, and your outpost shipbuilder. Locations here kzbin.info/www/bejne/on3SfKZjrLOohas Cost: ~250,000 though significantly less if you use a cheaper parts. Class: C but you can use B or even A reactor. Just lower the quality of weapons, shields, grav drives relative to the decrease in class. You can build this frame very early on and slowly upgrade when you get the skills. Skills needed: Piloting 4 and Starship design 4 and level ~60. Though you can simply reduce the quality of the reactor like mentioned and it still is a great design. If you don't see a part, most likely you aren't the right level yet so use one below it.

I've built this as you did, but with just one or two mods. I swapped the shielded cargo, and the hatch around, then moved the whole lot aft one frame. This A) stops you having to walk around the ship and B) brings you into the ship in the control room, right next to the bridge. But this is just a personal preference of mine - Love this build, it's gorgeous and just as good as you say!

The whole lot, not loft. As in move the hatch towards the aft, and everything else shuffles back once.

I also got rid of the two control stations and just swapped for a 2x2 battle stations instead. now i pop up right into the control center which is attached to the bridge when i enter the ship. I added a 3x1 berth and 3x1 living quarters to the wings instead and attached a Taiyo and Daimos 3x1 engineering bay below them just to add a bit of "engine room realism" to the ship and i'm still at 100 mobility. Will upload a screenshot soon!

I've built a slightly similar ship using the "no stairs" method and that cockpit - definitely loving it. I previously was using the monster Diemos cockpit, which I prefer the interior of, but don't like the chair animation.

[@mrKozmoz]

The ship builder is definitely quirky and strange in what it decides to do, can't wait for a mod that lets us choose where doors/ladders end up, as I nearly have lost my mind with how random the placement can get.

[@nextgen3ric]

The thing annoying me the most is that the ship building preview of connection points tells white lies: habs have preferred connection points, a preferred NUMBER of connections, and a preferred FLOW of connections total (what I mean is that a hab chain will not allow an open circle and will instead prefer a closed line). If they would just TELL me some of these things, I'd be fine tinkering, but no preview and quite hefty costs due to warnings make it REALLY tedious to get right and test. Genuinely the first moment in this game that gave me "requires mods" vibes.

[@bzs187]

It would be so much better if we could choose the ladder and door locations.

[@InZomnia365]

I have a medium sized ship with three levels. I built it hoping to get just 1 ladder straight up from the landing bay, but never got it to do that. The ladders were all random, and changed every time I've swapped out a hab for a different one. This last time I experimented, it actually gave me the single, centralized ladder. I am not touching those core three habs ever again xD

I just loathe that there are so many components that do NOTHING. Like the 'structural' components that can be huge, heavy, and cosmetic... yet do utterly nothing FOR the ship.

@Shallenberger go to Sol, Ship Services Technician (New Homestead). New Homestead is on Tiatan around Saturn.

[@Stukov961]

My tip for a completly ladderless ship: use one of full size top dockers that are flippable so you can put it on the bottom. Connect whatever cockpit or bridge you're using to a hab at least 2x1 big. Put any of the bays with a top connection, like deimos or nova, facing forward connected to hab, then put your full size bottom docker behind it. This gives you two floor hatches next to each other, one for landing, one for docking in a perfect little embarkation area. Technically you can put this anywhere you want in relation to the bridge, facing any direction, but I like it the way I described. Minimises the walk from the pilot seat to either of the exits. And because ships always land on a pad, outpost or city, with the cockpit facing the entrance, having the bay as close to directly under the cockpit as possible minimises walking distance any time you can't or don't want to fast travel directly into the ship interior. It looks especially great with the Nova bridge. Your ship can be two interior decks with zero ladders, and the embarkation room is directly outside the stairs down on the bridge. Yes, the bay has a ladder, but I'm not counting that because 1 it's not in the ship interior, and 2 you never actually climb it, it works like any other area transition door.

[@UlfMTG]

I don't get it, so I need a docker that goes on the bottom, and a bay that goes on top, but they're next to each other and there aren't any ladders? wouldn't there be a ladder that goes to the top of the ship where the bay is? or am I being retarded. I just don't understand what's supposed to go on the bottom and what's supposed to go on top. edit: nvm I think I get it, nothing on goes top. The whole idea is to just have the landing bay and the docker adjacent to each other on the same level, on the bottom of the ship

[@Stukov961]

@@UlfMTG Both go on the bottom. You want a bay where the top of the bay attach to the ship interior, like the one on the starter ship. Then you take one of the regular size dockers, again like the one on the starter ship, but you flip it (default key z) so the docking port face the ground. In the starting ship interior you get a floor hatch to the bay, and a ladder to the docker. If you flip the docker and put it next to the bay you just get a second floor hatch, and no ladder taking up space. Note that for some reason not every brand of full size docker (ie same size as a 1x1 hab piece) can be flipped to have the docking port facing down. Nova Galactic can't, but you can do it with a Deimos one.

I made a version of this today, but swapped out the rear Bay for a front Bay (don’t like running to the front of the ship when parked), and it looks awesome, like it has a mouth.

This is a really nice design, just made a couple small changes (hate running around the ship to back landing bay). I swapped the shielded cargo with the landing bay and changed the slim docker for the 110DP Deimos top docker, it creates big door in the control station (changed it to Stroud one) to cockpit, has ladder to exit and 2 small doors to workshop and all-in-one berth. The big top docker (not just the attachment to companionway) removes one ladder for boarding.

So glad I started following you. You provided tremendous Starfield insight. This ship is sweet. I love that bridge. Two things that I never can seem to find it and build videos. Number one is how much does it cost. It would be a bummer to start a project and then not have enough money. And number two how do you build from a blank slate or do you need to start with the cheapest ship just to get into the ship builder?

[@Subsistence69]

Only way to truly start from scratch is to buy or own a ship and just delete everything manually, but you can do it

[@Hawk_-lh4mh]

Love your videos I found your channel awhile ago when you broke down all the videos ( pre launch videos) and made them Interesting to watch.. thanks again brotha keep Up The great work

[@agirlyman]

That is the best-looking ship I've seen so far excellent work🤩

[@extectic]

It's a great build. I wasn't aware of that cockpit and am definitely redoing my ship with it as the foundation. The one big drawback with this design (well, in my book) is the rear-facing boarding module. I did that at first because it makes a ton of sense, but that means you always have to run around the ship to enter it in spaceports. The ship always lands front-forward. I just wanted that part more streamlined so have to put it in the front. I know, also, there's at least one such module that loads straight into the ship with a door which can be nice. I currently use this exact landing module as used in the video though, just mounted forward with a different cockpit.

[@Coexist-ph2ye]

Totally agree with your point about rear facing boarding modules. Beth needs to make landing position based on the boarding module and not the cockpit (or at least give you the choice through a settings toggle). I haven't yet attempted this build, but I am thinking of trying a side entry boarding once my design is rank 4.

[@jamesbradley3861]

Ok, I LOVE this. I get lost un the bigger ships, the simplicity speaks to me and makes things SO much easier

[@PavelBelyaev23]

Thanks a lot man! Made a precise copy of your build and I totally LOVE IT!

[@sethnewlin510]

Just a heads up to anyone like this that will spend hours carefully moving part after part to find the perfect layout- Don't waste your time trying to hide your essential systems in the center of the ship. I know it makes sense logically to put the nonessential systems on the outside and insulate things like the reactor or grav drive, but unfortunately you're thinking harder about ship design than Bethesda ever did. Regardless of how you position your systems the enemy can always target whatever they want from every angle. For example, I have a ship with the grav drive near the nose of the ship but an enemy ship directly behind me was able to knock it out. I'm 100% there was was no conceivable angle they could have seen my grav drive from behind me, they would have either had to shoot through multiple habs or the landing gear. Unperturbed by that basic reality, they just teleported their lasers directly to my grav drive anyways. So just stick them wherever they fit easily or look good to you, mechanically there's no difference between having 30' worth of armor around your grav drive and having it completely exposed from all sides.

[@RandomZeroGravity]

The same for us when I shoot enemy ship. What's being targeted that's what get destroyed or temporarily disabled, unless they use ship parts. Yes, enemy can use ship parts. I mean ship repair kit*.

[@-Yogo]

Or you could be like the guy who built a cubic frame ship. The game mechanics make enemies shoot the centre of your ship, hence making enemies miss 100% of the time because it passes straight through lol

Took like 6 rebuild and hoping around A LOT to the specific shipyards but eventually I turned my Razor Leaf into something based on the core of your ship. I went way more into cargo but the base habs and cockpit were based on your design, so you earned a sub today! Now I get a killer cargo ship that handles oddly well and has the razor leaf bonus perk as well! Was worth the 2 hours or so it took jumping around and rebuilding it a bunch of times just slapping on parts until I had everything from each vendor, now I just need to level up more to get a better reactor but these auto turrets SHRED lol

[@SchwettyBawls]

What is the Razor Leaf bonus?

[@chomp7927]

@@SchwettyBawls spacers and crimson will recognize you in random encounters and either try to flee or give up the fight after a few of them die, and with auto turrets there's always one dead before I even get my manual weapon on them lol. You can then pick them off one by one if they don't jump away or whatever. When you go to the key they recognize you and swarm on you so that makes it fun too, no running away at the key I would suggest keeping one weapon for manual, you need something for disabling and boarding, and you gotta shutdown the turrets or you'll just kill everything lol

@@brianburns1420 Not exactly. I think I started with a class C ship from Tayo that had the cockpit, then bought the shady stuff from Red Mile, then I went to my outpost and stripped everything but the cockpit, grav and reactor, and built this ship. That initial cost at the outpost was ca. 250k. with some good temporary engines. Later I flew to Hopetech to get the proper connection with the wings so they are connected with walkways, and lastly I got the correct engines on Neon after I had completed the side quest from Walter without killing the other CEO.

[@chowbox87]

One thing you can do to get rid of one of the unsightly ladders, is use one of the dockers that takes up the space of a 1x1, to my knowledge those are just extra thicc and the ladder should at least be in line with the landing bay ladder, and you won’t have to deal with the extra companionway. I hope someone eventually makes a mod so that the docker and bay ladders face the same direction as the other ladders (or better yet add stairs/navy ship style ladders

[@kraven2144]

Yeah but then it has to be on the outer edge of your ship, so say goodbye to any structure models you want to flank your ship, like the wings on this one.

14:30 The center engine you're going with has the best power to thrust ratio in the game, so on a ship with as many of each of those engines, the engines you're using has more thrust. Be careful when building with the Slayton Aerospace ones though, cause max thrust costs you 390000 credits

[@miravlix]

You seem to have overlooked that the grav drive has a STORY animation linked to it, so hiding it is like buying a cool pair of shoes and putting them inside bags, when you wear them. Cockpit - 1x1 room - entry/docking area and I don't do cool decoration rooms as the ship designer reset all items when changing a ship, so a cool armory get emptied every time you decide to change the colour of the ship, making it rather useless. Unless they change that somehow, houses is really the best place for armories. You will update your ship until you reach the "end" design and every time you do a universe reset (aka NG+). So first time players need to start in a A ship that slowly morbs over time into the "end" ship, but you also need to remake it after ever NG+ reset and while you make money the ship again "evolves" over time, so many annoying item resets. You really don't end up flying around in a "finished" ship much. Pro Tip, use the Mantis ship as the box you make the ship in, it get a cool buff, even if you erase the entire ship and build a new design, it's the "ID" that get the buff.

Why has no one still figured it out if you don't cross the decks and close any side doors with wing, windows and similar, you force your doors. you get conection trough second door because you closed off the connectors in front, closed the ones on the side and you top floor is conected by doors since you didn't cross the first and last hatch, also your bridge forces the door, and you raarly have a door and stairs open unless extremely necesary. nothing else, just close the sides you don't wanna use and you get doors where you want them to be. Also for one of mine relized if 2 hatches are open, third can' happen, good for losing off crosses if needed.

Also very clever way of composing the habitat part...I have the suspect that the creator builds connections like doors and ladders while you are composing the ship so the order in which you put the various elements matters...and yours is perfect... This video is absolutely a lot of value...tnx (I am not still at ship engineering 4 but I will build it as soon as I get there...but probably without the wings that are almost useless from a practical standpoint, and some tweaks to the weapons...in the meantime I will build variations with what I can get at my skill lvl)

The key is, you need to know who the main seller, buy from there for the parts, yes you can start with similar starter ship or buy cheap available to a bare minimum, the upgrade or replace the parts, then go back and forth to the main seller to get the unique parts. You can spend hours to get those, including finding where your preferred stairs connection, if needed. Google is your best search to find those seller if you new or have not find them all.
