This thing is a beast! Surprisingly nimble for her size. Built to be fun and look cool and cinematic, with lots of little details. Heavily inspired by The Nostromo (of course) and a menagerie of other ships.

And yes, she can land/takeoff!

Big thanks to Whip, Phil and MMaster for their scripts!

Control your descent and you will land with no problems! I recommend not exceeding ~25m/s below 1200m on anything more than a 1.0G planet and you will be fine. Bring hydrogen.

KNOWN BUG: You may glitch through the crew elevator as it ascends. This is something Keen needs to fix unfortunately.

Awesome shader replacement that restores proper dark shadows, plus scratch free windows

For those of you who are wondering how I made the blueprints pic, I take black and white screenshots, run them through a neon filter and then ajust the color balance as required!

Hey @4L£X [<O>] I'm part of a Alien/SE discord if you wanna join, it's a nice community and some talented builders

@4L£X [<O>]

Thank you very much! It means a lot to me that someone enjoys my work after all this time

Regrettably I don't play SE as much as I used to so no plans for an SE Nostromo

Please don't sell yourself short tho! By taking on a project one can naturally learn more and more about building! Why not try the Nostromo yourself? Start small, maybe just the bridge or even a single room and then just keep going when inspiration hits!

Hi Dolan,
I'm using your ships on my "Alien" world, absolutely amazing your design, totally Alien style ships, I loved them all. Now, the reason why I end up here is because I was looking for the Nostromo in the first place but the only ones available in the workshop are either too old and don't work anymore or they're absolutely packed with mods, which is really annoying. We need more nice designs like yours in vanilla! :) My question to you: have you done the Nostromo yourself? Do you have any plans on doing it one day, if you haven't done it yet? Because I think you'd be the perfect person to try and rebuild this classic with all the new blocks and stuff... let me know if you can please, I'd really like to know. Unfortunately I'm crap at designing ships, I'd love to help you with anything, but my skills are zero to none...I'm very good at downloading blueprints tho! :steamhappy: lol Thank you so much!
