Removed section 13. Looked out of place and original ship was good.

Useful tip to solve your problem:

*Move the core back, and change it to a civ core to eliminate that blue dot.
*create a section, any section. While its selected press R. This opens a code string.
*Scroll left to where it says spr_Section 11(or whatever number it is) change this text to spr_Core. Leave the rest of the text in tact.

*Come to think of it, just copy this string:
section|spr_Core|0|65280|-1|196.55|0|1|1
*Press E while that section is still selected, and paste this string.
This will create a core section that is not the core which can be placed where the actual core is right now. Thus you can keep the appearance of your good looking ship without making it a one hit wonder.

If its too confusing just ignore me, but you seem like you get the basics of the game. In any case, welcome.

I tried to do what you did, but the civilian core would stick out of one side or the other. Right now I am working on a corvette ship.

How do I re size cores? You could have filled that part out

Same way you re-size other ship parts. I/K and Shift+I/K

Oh, that will help a lot. I am about to test my corvette right now

This is the Victory Class Mk1 Corvette.

In this ship I used color layering to give it depth, and I tried not to weapon spam it.

That 13 doesn't look good and when it's destroyed the fagments will hit your core

If you read the post at the top of page 2 it says that I removed it. Please comment on the current corvette

I like the way the scatterbeams look on the ends of the wings. The overall design of the ship is pretty neat, but there is a few too many weapons. Remove one or two flak turrets, and replace two of those missiles with pulse guns, maybe modified, or perhaps replace one of the two railguns with a weasel.

I dunno. It's your ship.

The Corvette is very nice, good color scheme. I think it has a good number of weapons. The one thing I don't like is how the Gatling Blaster sticks out a bit, but to move it back would put it too close to the Missiles, methinks. Perhaps resize the two front sections to be longer by one?

Also, the fighter seems nice.

okay, the original ships were a weapons spam, all the same weapon all over the ship, then the core was exposed, then you put an ugly teal section right in front of the core...The new ship also has has a parenting problem with the nose cannon, you should hide a centered section under the nose and parent the cannon to it.

Did you even read the thread? I removed the teal section!
