Lifecube Escape Pod - Sidelauncher

General Intro
The LCEP system is based on Buoy's quick-launch lifepod system, but reconfigured for a much smaller profile using all available space. With an optimum capacity of 5 and a rated maximum capacity of 8, this lifeboat is designed for launch in less than favorable conditions, such as extreme weather or a heavy list.

The LCEP has a relatively small range that will allow the pilot to reach any nearby land. If there is no nearby land, propulsion should be disregarded in favor of extending battery life for lighting and heating. The lifepod is fitted with solar panels which, over time, will recharge the batteries.


Features
- Simple quick-launch system similar to the Buoy Lifepod.
- Compact, low spatial profile arrangement and shape.
- Basic all-electric propulsion and steering with approximately a km range per full charge.
- 11 solar cells.
- Minimal low-powered stabilization system.
- Drainage pump system.
- Heating system.
- External power cutoff triggered when the main ship's power reserve falls below a particular threshold.
- Seats for five including pilot.
- Parachute.

Assembly
This lifepod can and may be used in your next project; credit is appreciated. A frontlaunching version of this lifepod can be found here: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1970988979&searchtext=lifepod

Implementation is fairly straightforward, but care should be taken in the process. If you find it necessary to modify the existing exterior walls (Such as adding windows or optimizing layout) be careful of destroying certain components such as the power store or the launch slider. Make sure the door segment has an unobstructed jettison. If you use a different base color (color between joined faces), switching colors can be safely done with the color-switch tool without changing any of the lifepod's colors.

Each module has two batteries on top marked with a different colored stripe, each electrically connected to a specific part of the module. During implementation, replace the blue-marked battery with your vessel's main power supply, making sure to hook it up in the same spot or at least in the same circuit.

The red-marked battery is an optional power booster for the launch system. If your vessel is a submarine or you are placing the module below the waterline, this battery should be replaced by an isolated power supply elsewhere; otherwise, it can be discarded entirely.
