I've been obsessed with building boats and subs the last couple of weeks I finished a typhoon with the new sub parts and they look amazing! Do you have any plans for American sub parts? Just round tubes maybe a bump for the missile silos along its back. Actually due to a previous mistake I made (I rotated the round sub parts 90 degrees and the Z axis wasn't facing down) I released the wide parts instead. Otherwise you would be messing with American style sub parts right now. And yes i do have plans for making american parts.

I figureed you did the Russian parts first because they had more charicter. Well right on man. Just make sure you pace yourself, it can be easy to get burned out when everybody asks for more. And no one stops to say thanks for what you have already given to us. So thank you my friend!! We really appreciate these parts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laythe2 Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 A lot of people wanted me to build them pre made ships. So I did. I made 6 ships for people to build off of. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zjybnixpof5awa6/StockLBPPShips.zip?dl=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penkover Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 1. THIS IS EPIC ! 2. Wont be bad if the texture wll be toogleable between current and old - good when team battles 3. I think this carrier is too big (600m) real us carriers have max 337. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantTank Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Hi! I have a few comments/questions on this mod 1.) Ships blowing up on load is normal and will be fixed in 1.1 (KSP), yes? 2.) As another user has said, carrier parts are a little bit big. 600m is about twice the largest carrier on earth. Also, they are super light. A USA carrier is 100,000 tons. Instead of 2700 tons a piece of carrier, it should be around 30-40 thousand 3.) Surface attaching is hard. It is hard to build bridges, for example. Parts are placed at a weird orientation.

Matuchkin Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Are the engines electric, or fuel powered? If so, how efficient are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Engines are currently liquidfuel powered. Though the submarine engines are going to be electric powered. I never tested to see how far they go but they are efficient. 1 hour ago, GiantTank said: Hi!

There is no launching system so the parts are used a a runway. I didn't really base the parts off the nimitz. As for the reload bug, yes. that is what i have heard. Ill just add the water resource to weigh the carrier parts down. And im not sure of the button names but there are 2 modes to surface attaching. Make sure its the right one. 14 hours ago, ckirky said: slight prob with the sub craft, i loaded it in and use vessel mover to place it into the water, then the rear 2 hull segments blew up. any help?

Dawnbandit Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I've made the ships but I can't for the life of me get them to steer. I even modded an SAS module to 10,000 torque and it still won't turn. Any tips? I've always been frustrated because of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laythe2 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 I have an idea with the future of this mod. I am thinking I should split the mod into 2 halves. One being for WW2 style ship parts and the other for more modern style ship parts (cold war era and up). The halves will be in the same download. I thought about doing this because of size differences in the eras of ships and the shapes of the hulls. A modern destroyer is not the same size as a WW2 destroyer and a WW2 destroyer is less wide than a modern destroyer. The parts will function the same but will look different. The paint jobs will be different. The size of the parts will be scaled to the size of their real life counterparts. Both halves will be usable along side to each other. If you only like to build battleships or stuff from that era or you only like to build modern stuff then you don't have to even look at the opposite parts.

Just reuse it in 1.1 I'm still going to make different parts. The shapes will be different. Also you can get 1.1 prerelease of you have steam.
