As first ships go, it is a very good attempt. I am also new and by no means have the right to tell you what works and what dosent, but I definately agree with vidboi, in that you shouldn't really be using stock weapons on a ship using custom sections. Highly reccomend going to this thread: http://ww...

It's a definite improvement. Now I think you need to develop a more logical structure to your ships. As is, every area seems a bit undistinguished. I think I get what you are saying? You mean a similar style that each ship within a fleet uses, or do you mean 'structure' as in a bish-bash-bosh of ra...

Oh! Oh wow...damn, I am a dipsh*t.

Sorry for wasting your time on this pointless thread. I wasn't aware the speed up time function actually increased the framerate.

Fair point about the light grey, I was going to ask if it was too bright.
Fixed that, now.

I won't upload all the screenshots of the fixed ships, just one, and a shot of a new one.

Ok, so i was testing one of the new ships I have built, and had just blown a lot of things up, when i noticed this:

(look at bottom left.)

Last time I checked the game runs at 30fps...
So...what?! I don't think this is suppost to happen, what have I done?

Ok, I got some free time so I have been busy building, trying to get better.

Ok, I think I have taken all the suggestions onbaord, and I must say, i'm proud of it. I will be moving on to the other ships hopefully, it would be nice to get a fleet up :) Also, I don't suppose anybody knows any good weapon sprite packs that would work with the section sprites I am using? (Sorry,...

Oh, right i see! Fixed, thanks for your time!
I will get this baby up and running and then post the results.

I assume you can change the colours along the side for the sprites...but how? :) Right click on them. The top three colours are the in-game team colours. Don't use those at all, use the other colour palette. Right-click on the colours to change them, and if you have a colour scheme you want to keep...

It's an improvement. What really needs work now is the depthing and shading in the ship to give it a better sense of dimension. Also, with the Phoenix in particular, I don't think it lends itself to having holes in it. Not to say that it doesn't work well on some ships. Keep at it, and welcome. I w...

Ok, I went back and had another go at the wings, and put in some more detail.
Would you say this is better? Or time for another try?

Hi, thanks for the response and the warm welcome!

I just discovered new sprites, they make everything a little bit more awesome.
But seeing as I have the 'not crap' verdict, I went ahead and built a new Battleship - The Pheonix class.

Hey there everybody! I downloaded BSF not too long ago, without knowing that it had a shipbuilder function, and when I found it did, I knew I HAD to jump in and have a go. Anyway, these are first ships, nothing too fancy, I want to really get to know the builder before I make some huge and complex c...
