Cube Carrier CV

This is the enhanced version of my Cube ship, located here:
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=730353784

This requires the rarer ores and a high level to build (level 18) in comparison. It actually doesn't take all that much more total material or time to make than the original Cube ship. It has a lot more features, however.

With HV and CV mining existing now, the Cube needed an overhaul to continue to be useful. So the bottom was converted to a docking bay, the main entrance is now through there so the huge rear ramp was no longer necessary, and things took off from there. This is a great home-away-from-home Class 1 ship!

Changes from the Cube Miner:

• Mining "shaft" removed and replaced with a generous-sized docking bay
  
• Bottom legs have been reworked aesthetically to match the new docking bay
  
• Constructor upgraded to an Advanced Constructor
  
• 2 harvest storage added
  
• Gravity generator
  
• Large fuel tank instead of Medium
  
• Dyed top and bay
  
• Rear door and ramp removed; entry is now through the docking bay
  
• Mining turret added to the top
  
• Stronger thrusters added for more maneuverability
  
• Several rearrangements done for more space and to fit the gravity generator
  
• Space in the "bridge" for 2 more passenger seats if desired
  
• Docking added to the bottom for base docking
  
• Only 1 space taller
  
• A bit less depth due to the large ramp being removed

The mining turret eats up a HUGE amount of power (1MW) even when it isn't being used, so turn it off when you're not using it. With the thrusters and mining turret off, a full tank of large fuel cells provides over 45 hours of power. If you're on a planet, disable the gravity generator too for 96 hours of power.

I have deliberately left the exterior undecorated so that you can paint it up how you like.
