' Wrote:in the end - your ship might indeed hold together with the metaphorical "duct tape" ....
... what you need is a character that firmly believes in duct tape.
About this aspect, well... with a bit of surprise I note that, unlike prison liner, Pilgrim tends to be heavy damaged from radiation (I try in Omega 41, naturally).
Well, I think this thing is right and very realistic, seeing the poor condition of the hull.
Particularly slaver turrets, literally "crumble" after not many minutes spent in Om41.
The is the most realistic ship in the game. I mean there are so many ships that spend too much time in space radiation and clouds of toxic waste but still look rather...untouched.
there are more of us?:D
slave liner and salvage frigate are most beautyfull ships for me
and they look more "junkerish" than any other ship made by junkers
it would be interesting to have gunboat foward gun in that tube, but you can't move that gun so you would need to aim with entire ship so it would not be very usefull
and for its age
if i understand space corectly if you leave ship and come much later (for example 500 years) for it, it should be same (if nothing hits him like asteroid) but tehnology would be very outdated
The Pilgrims should be upgraded with a forward gun and 1 hvy cruiser turret(for missile) on the top and two light turrets on both sides for pulse. Reduce the cargo to 3600 and you get the pefect slave liner.
