Three scripts are included by default. Whiplash141's SIMPL ship monitoring program (found here), MMaster's Automatic LCDs 2 (found here) and Whiplash141's Automatic Door and Airlock Script (found here). None are critical to ship operation. Additionally, an included low-fuel alarm is present using the new Automatons Event Controller. One free programmable block and one free event controller have been included for end user customization.

This ship is vanilla and uses a number of DLCs. Heavy Industry, Decorative Blocks I,II and III, Automatons, Sparks of the Future, Warfare II, and Frostbite. This ship will require the interior to be rebuilt should you choose the play without these, but the core functionality remains.

The big inspiration this time around was the fantastic "Caelius-class Reconnaissance Corvette" by Taidyr. The Caelius-class has served me incredibly well in my survival PvE worlds and has proven fantastic in its appearances in GetBrocked's Outlands series. Please check out Taidyr's work here here!

I'm always open to suggestions or ideas so please let me know if you have any! This craft was the logical step up from my series of previous smaller support ships, and is the first mainline combat ship to bridge the gap between my small gunboats and my previously released aircraft carrier. If you notice any glaring issues with the craft that might have slipped by me, please let me know so I can fix them ASAP.
