Capt.Joseph Kerbertson Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Yeah, I guess you're right, maybe I'll try, I'll definitely at least edit the narwhal, and add some more slots on the deck, and remove 2 lifts (sorry InfiniteDice, but 3 is a bit too many for me, at least with only the 1, I can fit 3 more aircraft on deck.)Better get the hangar expansion mod...Double hull sounds cool, and maybe I won't fail, granted I have my own carrier worthy plane, the shoehorn. Might just download yours Capt., if you post a link, I saw your post, and seriously it looks epic!The expansion mod is the only way to go. And in regards to double hulls... start with the bottom and work up, with part clipping on of course. And yeah, I left a dropbox link a page back. The ship is quite unfinished, though seaworthy and will take a b-9 strugatsky (spelling?) without destroying the deck... that's not saying you can successfully land and stop that big craft, just that it will take the brunt of the landing without damage.

Capt.Joseph Kerbertson Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I have begun work on a new class of carrier. It's the Confed if you can't land it here, you need to fly for the Air Force class Carrier.I'm figuring out better ways of linking the two hulls without them being on top of one another... Progress, yes, making progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7499275 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Took 3 direct plane hits to get her down but she finally went, hey infinite, how can we tell how much flooding has occured in pieces such as the over hang storage and the hanger area?

BubbaWilkins Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Here's a double width catamaran style one:All center elevators are currently in the down position, but raise up to make one complete deck surface.EDIT: Here's some more.

InfiniteDice Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 hey infinite, how can we tell how much flooding has occured in pieces such as the over hang storage and the hanger area?You could build a dummy ship with a floating hull a tower and then any part you want to test...Right after launch right click the tower and check the vessel mass. then when the part in question floods you check the mass again at the tower.. it'll have increased by the flood amount.

BubbaWilkins Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 is it posible to make a triple deck Sure, only if your machine can handle absurdly high parts counts. My basic hull was already 120 parts and is only 3 base hull sections long. Making it actually craft functional would probably take another 50 parts for supports, docking, etc. My machine doesn't like anything more than 250 parts in size.

Espresso Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I edited the narwhal, now has 6 (maybe 5) slots on the deck, 1 lift, and 3 cargo loading traldoors, as well as 3 KAS Winches, doesn't have anything on it, as of yet, but I'm editing the runabout so it has a missile on the back, and a sunbeam on the front, with a Girder over the centre of mass, and a KAS port on that, so it can dock that way, I also am weapon using the shoehorn, wasp, and shark naval aircraft, with 6 missiles each. I will also attempt to make 3 others, for the 3 other slots on the deck, this mod is awesome, keep it up dice!!! Can't wait for the naval parts, but for now, I'm happy just with boat parts, as we all are!p.s. A lazor missile can pretty much slice the deck in two, and leavethe rest of the ship to break apart, pretty realistic, great job dice.p.p.s. I discovered this accidentally, when I was testing the runabout V2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
