There has to be a reason why stuff like this will not get in.
Oh and... the Firefly. Have you seen the new IMG transport and mining ship? They are similar.
That problem has been solved months ago Mao. Hitbox complexity is no longer an issue. A minor issue with this specific model might be that shots will pass through the model when shot at from the top - might be wise to shrink that forward section down a little bit. But overall - I like this model, and wouldn't mind seeing one a bit smaller, and one a bit larger in a similar style, to replace the Basalt and Mafic respectively.

the ship is larger than the average VHF. - so i m not quite sure where that fear of "shot flying through" comes from. - now shots CAN pass through the open space - but then... that would happen when you "miss" the ship.
naturally - we d make sure that the "center" of the ship is NOT in open space or a very narrow section ( like it used to be on the titan ) - but on the mass of the body of the ship.

Yes sir, totaly agree with you. Firefly needs to get cleaned a bit and it's gonna be one of the most badass 3k transports.
Well, if any of you know someone who's good with texturing, let me know. Otherwise, do not expect an improvement. This topic is intended to request the playerbase to help out with the dev process - as long as the people offering already have a basic skill to these matters, since I won't be able to provide a tutorial.

I may not be a modeler, but I have a concept for the Basalt - KS-439 Civilian Light Miner, which I made in Gmod. Not ethical, but it actaully makes sence and gives me some options with ships of either custom or ported. You might recognize the ships used, but it can be altered to be more organic shell for the concept.
It is to be slightly bigger of the original ship that is in the game. You can probly flip where the Nodes are on one side and probly make is seem more of a mining ship. Again, I dont do well with modeling programs. Mainly concepts is what I do. Its a good idea none the less.
