Description
Description
The Rorqual is the heavy freighter cargo career captains dream about to have command on. It is a reliable option for long hauls with its spacious cargo bay with its 4 separate cargo compartments. The R0-Q Freighter have the convenience of a med bay, crew quarters, private captain quarters. It also comes issued with two engines (one for high energy efficiency but low engine output and another that swallows energy but offers much better power.) with a good usage if the engines a captain can get really far on very little fuel or get fairly fast but at a cost. The Rorqual comes with a power distribution control panel that allows experienced engineers divert power where it needs to go, combine the right amount of batteries recharge rates and the right mode and you can make this beast purr like a catfish. While the Rorqual lack armaments it does come with EDC as well as a decoy launcher which could of course be used for offence.

Authors Notes
This submarine is primarily designed for single/multiplayer campaign gameplay. I left many things simple in terms of logic circuitry to allow players themselves to come up with their own solutions and provided them with a room in the aft they can install the logical components at. I been using many "redundant" text panels with text on them instead of labels to allow players to wire them up to show data. The submarine have many item hideouts as well as remote compartments allowing for fun and challenging traitor gameplay while still making efforts in preventing greifers to ruin your rounds. I have attempted to make the engineer gameplay more interesting with the power distribution panel in the reactor room, which I been testing extensively to make sure that the system is balanced well. As with many of my submarines this one can be upgraded during campaign gameplay to preform a lot better than what it does in its "default" state. The Rorqual is intended to be the next step after owning the ZU-B "Zubmarine" Freighter.

Good. What is the EDC and how does it work? There are no instructions on the terminal.

@JoneK

The system works fine, it works as intended.

you do know you can set if you want the batteries to charge or not, and how much for them to charge?

Power delivery system is way too (laggy) and doesn't work on this new update. As Batteries charge constantly.

The hulls look fine, Are you sure you had not a leak above the command room that constantly leaked some water into the command room?
Fox  [author] 4 Nov, 2021 @ 7:09am 
Ill take a look at it.

Love having a captain's cabin. Wish there was a toilet. ;)

We have been having fun with this one, thank you! I've noticed there's water between the command room and battery room that doesn't go away and makes constant irritating flooding noise. Know about this?

I do not know why they do that. I have plenty of points they can grab the ladder on. but they seam to struggle to do so. i added the platform to give them a half way point but it still didnt help them, maybe even made it worse. ill see if I can fix it and add some of the new ULD aswell
