Building a Spaceship

To build a spaceship, the first thing you need is a valid Shipyard. Then, go to the Shipyard console and create an new ship.

Currently, spaceship building is rather simple, and not many rules are to be known. Any ship will have the same speed, acceleration and such. As time passes, spaceships design should become more complex.

The basics


When building a spaceships, the first thing to know is the general orientation. Your ship will fly in this direction, and your camera look is this direction.

The image on the left explains what orientation your spaceship is expected to have in a Shipyard.

Required blocs
Currently required blocs when building a ship are:
 * Command console: For a fighter, the pilot's camera will be put in the center of the cube just above it, facing the spaceship's front.
 * Energy cell
 * Engine

Building rules

 * Scaffold: Scaffold are a very special cube that is only useful while building the ship, as every scaffold cube will be removed during the spaceship validation process.
 * Command console: The cube above it have to be blank, as the camera will be there.
 * Engine: Engines can be chained, but the "exhaust" must be free, meaning that no cube should be behind the last engine cube of a tube.
