Thank you TornadoThorsten and bad coffee! @TornadoThorsten, it looks like another author just updated. The link above yours should work for now. I may soon have it listed as a modded version on this post as well. @bad coffee, thank you! Let me know if you want it listed as a modded version on this post. And thanks again all!

Is there any update done to the MX9?
jrandall  [author] 13 Sep, 2020 @ 9:57am 
Thanks all. As in this ship needing an update, it certainly does. It was built for alpha 9 with the old CPU system and flight model. Everything has changed since then and most of my workshop creations broke. It is a huge issue having well over a hundred creations out there and many I have not got around to updating yet like the MX9 and MX9R. I will take a look at them and see how they will play with the new CPU system. A general rule thou is to remove all RCS, see where the CPU is at, and then add CPU tier blocks that fit the CPU and possibly more or less generators. Thanks again all!

Think this might need an update, i cant even fly this ship with out the Engines overheating. Ship in its current form is 100% unusable.

I always love your work, @jrandall, but this one needs an updated description too, please - the latest CPU mechanics mean that this craft spawns with a CPU load of 64,891 and a CPU capacity of 6,000.

Good for starting an in fact it is cheap!

@TashunkaSapa, yeah, using prefab cockpits forces you outside most every time unless the cockpit is surrounded by blocks. I guess it depends what you are doing with the SV. A lot of time I like to stop, jump out real quick and scope a resource or something and jump back in quick. In that case this type of cockpit works decently. But I do need an enclosed cockpit with drone hatch SV yet. Thanks again!
