So this game seems to be similar to No Mans sky, maybe I'm wrong. Not knocking it, just pointing out when NMS came out, all you had was base building, mining, and exploration
No man’s guy just came out with an update that allows you to build ships but then it says invite your friends. I wanna know if this builtship can be flown and efficiently used solo? Now I haven’t seen the no man’s sky update, but I’ll maintain that EGS has the most in-depth Vaux based, with nice shapes, spaceship building building of any game I’ve ever seen.
Here’s an image of the page ship I’m working on an EGS. There’s an area of blocklyness on the right side just in front of the right engine pod that I used for part of my cut and paste connection operation where I take it a ship apart, reconfigure it and paste it together and then go from there.
Acknowledgment that this originally with someone else else’s design that I downloaded from a blueprint. But it’s pretty easy to rebuild with cut and paste which is incredibly powerful in this game. You can see the name Dive 1, but my plan is to remove the core of the ship replace it with my own, which I think will allow me to rename it. And I do this because I wanna learn from how other people put together their ships instead of going through a long learning curve. This is just so much faster figuration, that will be significantly altered. The original ship had engines out on pods and it had a rear facing internal bay with a door that open to the back. I wanted a bay with doors, on both sides where I could fly in and fly out a small ship, hovercraft, or drive a tank in and out,and not have to try to rotate the ship around inside the bay, which can be difficult.
There’s actually quite a bit to know about how to put together a ship and have it be functional in this game.
I have No Man’s Sky and once I learn more about this new ship building, I may jump back into that. I remember many moons ago that when I played it, it got kind of boring and the one space station that I visited was bare bones, blah as compared to any of the more developed AAA type games. I mean, I rag on Starfield, but the settlements and the space stations you go to meet the requirements of what you expect a space station to look like and are populated.
Now, if I end up not playing this game, seriously, then why go through all the effort? Simply because I enjoy building and designing, and this might just end up being one big static display.
A possible interest I’m building this ship on a platform, but there’s an issue in this game with block ownership. The platform is technically a base, all of the blocks belong to it so if you’re not starting a spaceship out in space, you have to start it on the ground by placing a core on the ground, which can be a little bit of a pain when it comes to lifting it up and putting landing gear on it. But I’ve studied enough that I know that my landing gear is two blocks high and there’s a way to place a core on the ground copy, cut, and paste with an elevated in the air and remain elevated for just enough seconds that you could throw a couple of blocks underneath it that will attach to it and keep it raised up off the ground. Then that can be moved via cut and paste to the building platform.
