First ship, produced to test prototype Meta2 design rules at http://www.wyrdysm.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4897



Saharyne Industrial and Partners announce the birth of a new generation of superyacht.
While SIP has previously forged a sound reputation providing statesmen and diplomats high performance
and high comfort vessels, the Draupnir class heralds a new age of interstellar travel.

The Draupnir combines luxury previously found only planet-side with the speed of a cruising ship;
performance unsurpassed for a vessel of 129 meters.

Her organic form built from the latest materials and technologies, houses 88 rooms totaling 7,990 square
meters of living space. All Draupnir boast cleverly arranged facilities to include private cinema, panoramic
gymnasium, exercise pool, sauna, ballroom, lounge, a massive aft observation deck, and 23 staterooms.
She is also equipped with three launch vessels.

This superyacht includes a state-of-the-art intruder detection systems, an array of defensive blasters,
and her master suite and bridge are armor plated. The Draupnir will deliver you and your guests safely and
swiftly over any distance: she is in many ways the perfect long range cruising vessel.

This exceptional vessel will be produced in the H-92 shipyard complex at Gallard Prime. SIP is now
accepting orders.

Finally, Druapnir was built with prototype sections, designed to be more appealing after damage. Please destroy her.
Non-prototype sections are additionally included in this distribution.

It pinballs when down to the core .

Other than that, I am ABSOLUTELY LOVING those curves. Hiding the damaged sections with other sprites is brilliant, something I could not have come up with. It could use some color, but other than that, it's so... simple... and so... beautiful. So curvy for a yacht, and very fitting too.

Whoa... How many custom sprites are there?

Because that thing's incredible. Really smooth... Feels like a single sprite.


Some fancy photoshop shading would make this pure awesome.

Eight. I hope this is the last I produce with mspaint.

i really like the ship, as someone said it just needs some shading and it would look amazing.

i feel kinda bad now that i read the background for it because i made a ship with identical stats (so meta 2 balanced) - called 'Fly' (until i think of a better name)

size 75
4 light blasters
4 standard engines
standard core

i changed both ships so they are normal AI to test (because flanking AI vs flanking AI they just end up spinning in circles)

and the results
1 Draupnir vs 1 Fly - Fly wins - minimum damage
2 Draupnir vs 1 Fly - Fly wins - minimum damage
3 Draupnir vs 1 Fly - Fly wins - moderate damage
4 Draupnir vs 1 Fly - Fly wins - heavy damage
5 Draupnir vs 1 Fly - Draupnir win with 4 left - 2 heavy damage, 2 moderate damage
