Need help with the ship designer

Posted on Monday, May 18, 2015

Greetings,

I need some tips on how to create custom ships the most comfortable way. Right now I made some new hulls from scratch for myself, but I find it tedious to upgrade and save a new variant every time I attach some new modules to it.

Whats the best way? Save a template without weapons and modules and use that design every time I research new modules? Do I need to develop a nomenclature for every shipclass, for example "frigate V2" and frigate V3" for the upgraded variants and save every one, or is there an easier way?

Also, do I understand it right that you'd best take the cargo and large/huge starter kit to see your ships better on the gamemap? Is there any way to make the small/medum hulls to appear somewhat bigger on the map or do I need ti rebuild them from scratch with bigger starter kits?

If you have any other useful tips, I'd like to hear them, thanks in advance.
