Majicnanas's Chain Ship 2 (In progress)

Let's face it, the main attraction of BSF is building your own ships. Share them! If you need help, check the Shipmaker Info & Help forum a little ways down.

Majicnanas's Chain Ship 2 (In progress)

Post by Majicnanas »

Now I've seen this done before, and I don't know if I'm allowed to do it.

So basically, I upload a ship that isn't done, and the community works on it.

Here are the inerds of said chain ship. Work away! :D

Rules:
1. You can only add between 4 and 8 sections on your turn, then you post what you have and let someone else add their own 4 -> 8 sections. I know it will be asked, so yes, you can add eight sections to one side and then mirror it.
2. After posting your own update, you must wait for two more people to make their own additions before making any more.
3. If you remove any sections added by someone else, they count as sections you used. If you remove eight sections, you can't add any. If you remove five, you can add three. And so on. This is to discourage people from erasing other people's work while still allowing for it.
4. Moving sections added by someone else also counts towards your section-use total.
5. Colours can be changed whenever, as they're simple enough to change back, but I'd prefer that during building, people stick to shades of grey. This ain't a rule, so if you really want to colour stuff, you can. Fake-aegising is okay too.
6. All ships should be posted with a picture.
7. All ships should be packaged with the sprites used in it. This is REALLY EASY. Click "Tools", Click "Export Custom Sprites". The sprites will be dumped in a folder. Take that folder, move it out of your main BSF folder. Rename it as "Custom sprites". Package it in your zip with Colab###.sb4 and then I won't be compelled to snap your neck. (This doesn't work for doodads, so if you add doodads, you'll need to package them manually (don't add doodads))
8. After stating you will add the next lot of sections to the Chainship, you have a maximum of two hours to do so, which is more time than it should ever take to add 4-8 sections to a ship. If you exceed this time-limit, you forfeit your claim and someone else may take a shot at it.
I'm going to place restrictions on section usage. Use only sections listed on my "allowed section packs" list.

That's it! Simple enough, right? Grab the .sb4, slap on four to eight sections, then pass it on. Please remember that this is a community project, so please try to make your additions mesh with the work done by those before you. Other than that, this is mostly about having fun. (I recommend using the ThrusterDX version of BSF)

Credit for rules goes to Anna aka Anna. Thanks. :D

I think there needs to be more rules than that, I mean like rules on posting screenshots and build times. A set group of sprite packs to be used and what about mirroring ships? You need more and precise rules to do this. Look at Anna's Rules used in the old pseudo chainship projects, they worked pretty well.

It might be a while before I start one of my own again, but I might participate in this one depending on how it goes. Here are the rules I used for the previous one. They seemed to work quite well, so you may want to take them (changing them if you wish to), and add them to the OP:
  1. You can only add between 4 and 8 sections on your turn, then you post what you have and let someone else add their own 4 -> 8 sections. I know it will be asked, so yes, you can add eight sections to one side and then mirror it.
  2. After posting your own update, you must wait for two more people to make their own additions before making any more.
  3. If you remove any sections added by someone else, they count as sections you used. If you remove eight sections, you can't add any. If you remove five, you can add three. And so on. This is to discourage people from erasing other people's work while still allowing for it.
    1. Moving sections added by someone else also counts towards your section-use total.
  4. Colours can be changed whenever, as they're simple enough to change back, but I'd prefer that during building, people stick to shades of grey. This ain't a rule, so if you really want to colour stuff, you can. Fake-aegising is okay too.
  5. All ships should be posted with a picture.
  6. All ships should be packaged with the sprites used in it. This is REALLY EASY. Click "Tools", Click "Export Custom Sprites". The sprites will be dumped in a folder. Take that folder, move it out of your main BSF folder. Rename it as "Custom sprites". Package it in your zip with Colab###.sb4 and then I won't be compelled to snap your neck. (This doesn't work for doodads, so if you add doodads, you'll need to package them manually (don't add doodads))
  7. After stating you will add the next lot of sections to the Pseudo-Chainship, you have a maximum of two hours to do so, which is more time than it should ever take to add 4-8 sections to a ship. If you exceed this time-limit, you forfeit your claim and someone else may take a shot at it.
  8. I'm going to place restrictions on section usage. Use only sections listed on my "allowed section packs" list.

Updated added a little more colour to it. If you don't like the paint scheme, ditch it. I think it suits the ship though. :)
