DSE-1 Deep Space Explorer

Description
Hello!

This ship is a modified version of a ship I've been working on for a while now. The original version uses pistons for a drone printer and a decoy launcher, but since pistons are still so unstable I decided to make a more survival friendly, piston-free version for now!

It's designed to be a deep space explorer, with a versatile array of drones. Two types of combat drones, a miner, welder, and a grinder are available for construction via projectors connected to the button panels on the top of the ship. Some of the less interesting features include:

- Made out of small ship blocks
- 4 Large reactors
- 2 Jump drives
- 8 Hydrogen tanks
- 14 Medium cargo containers
- 1 Large cargo container
- 4 Gatling turrets
- 2 Missile Turrets
- 5 Connectors for docking drones
- Airtight, with an airlock towards the rear of the ship
- 2 Cryo chambers
- 1 Refinery
- 2 Assemblers
- Only 1 mod!

Be warned, this thing is pretty beefy and can be a bit sluggish. It's capable of hovering in 1 G thanks to an absurd amount of hydrogen thrusters on the bottom, but still be cautious. And bring lots of hydrogen. I was having issues with the airlock not depressurizing properly right before uploading this, If you have the same issue try copy and pasting the ship into a new world, that seemed to be a good fix for some of the problems I had during construction.

Thanks, hope you enjoy!

I keep telling myself I'm going to wait until the game is more stable/complete before I do any more builds, but apparently I can't stay away... :P
