Isonoe

Description
The Isonoe is a dedicated swarm buster - Meant to handle thresher packs often seen populating the Ridge and Aphotic Plateau. Armed with a CAT V discharge electrode and twinlinked coilguns, and an engine bay fit for a capital ship, this hunter-killer has developed a good reputation with captains that are able to keep engagements on their terms. However, its lack of batteries and demanding maintenance routine will leave inexperienced crews struggling.

Due to increased harassment of vessels supplying research and resourcing facilities on the Europan Ridge, the Coalition greenlit the construction of a new, multi-gun attack design that forgoes the standard railgun supplemented by coilguns in favour of a dedicated, twinlinked system with discharge coil support. Shipwrights on the project agreed that speed was critical, and made allotments for a new, prototype engine still in development. The complex propulsion system is rated to keep pace with thresher packs in open water, however it suffers from a very demanding upkeep regime.

Features

Excellent flooding resistance With an emphasis on combat, the Isonoe is built to be durable. With hardened bulkheads on key ramming surfaces, and most decks draining directly to ballast, only the most grievous of combat damage will pose a threat to the Isonoe. (Warning: No liability shall be placed on the shipyard in the event of catastrophic compression events due to material defect in any glass surfaces.) Twin-linked Coilgun To face off against large packs of threshers, crawlers and raptors, the standard railgun of an attack submarine has been swapped out for a rapid-fire coilgun system, capable of putting out a startling number of rounds in a short period of time. This has its drawbacks, however - As fauna with thick, natural armour will prove near-invincible without specialty munitions. High Performance Engine The Isonoe is fitted with a prototype engine, capable of propelling the relatively heavyweight frigate to impressive speeds. This comes at the cost of an increased maintenance demand. Crews should be cautious to not let the system run for extended periods without careful monitoring.

Vessel Dimensions : 23m X 13m Recommended Crew Size : 5-8 Recommended Crew Skill : Intermediate Cost : 9,200 Mk

Like the submarine? Give it a rating!
Hate the submarine? Mail me live bees or something.


The Isonoe is a fairly durable little vessel - With a condensed volume making for easy welding. Its weakness is in the glass canopy over the crew quarters, blindspots, and reliance on coilguns for armament. Proper use of the discharge coils will ensure an early death is prevented, but once molochs arrive, this vessel will be challenged.

Feel free to take the design and modify it to your heart's content, of course.

As always, a massive thanks to Undertow Games - I wouldn't be having so much fun in the editor without the fantastic work you guys have put into Barotrauma. <3

Addition: when the crew quarters flood, it also floods the passage to the suits making repair difficult to begin

Energy tops out with just moving, a single scratch in the airlock paralyzes the sub, poor coilgun loader placement and a lack of decent anti-flooding measures.

Submarine updated! Turns out that issue with the control console WAS a problem in the editor! I have no idea what caused it, either - Call it the kraken mucking with my designs, I suppose. Either way, the update fixes that, along with a bunch of other stuff too!

Enjoy!

I-

What?

This is the first time I've ever heard of something like THAT happening in Barotrauma.
That really sounds like it needs some dev investigation. Talk about quirky behaviour! I'll mess around a bit and see if there are any values to play with, but truth be told, that's some extreme jank right there.

This is the same when loading it in sandbox.

The Isonoe's navigation monitor spawned above the command room and outside the hull after transferring ship from the Kalichore mid campaign.

Such a beautiful sub; hope he finds time to update it!

Slight edit here; its not the discharge coil, but it appears to be the engine itself that causes a massive draw which causes the reactor to spike which causes the junction boxes to overload and melt down.

Even regular movement causes this issue. WIthout a crew just sitting on the junction boxes this has made this sub mostly unusable :(
