@Drayst - great mod even though it's outdated. Any chance of doing the new DLC control desk?

Could you PLEASE make that pillar block for a small ship? Or make a light armor block that can be placed in middle too (again also for small ships)??

I have not tried it in DX9. The way it works, is that I have changed the size of the blocks in the config files. The game automatically centers the models. So I did not need to change anything in the models and they are all vanilla. I would asume that it should work with DX9 too.

This is a godesnd. i can't stand having even-symetry because side-consoles just bug the hell out of me, but this will solve that so easilly. I don't see it written here, but those screenshots look DX11 and there's nobody complaining about DX9 in the comments, so i'm assuming this runs in DX11?

Has someone of you problems with collision models?

Yeah, def not a fighter cockpit, but I might still find a use for that modpack, thanks for the link Drayst, you've been very helpful! Cheers!

iircc the only 2 block wide small cockpit I came across was the one from this pack: http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=574450679

Sadly tt is not pretty and nowhere near a fighter cockpit...

@Drayst Fair enough, I just can't find a 2 block wide fighter cockpit to fit my evenly numbered wide plane. Shame, it was worth a shot though!! Thanks for the quick reply!! :)

@Viruz: I thought the antenna is fine, but on a closer look you are right: the model is not symmetrical so I added it

@Sárrazin: in my opinion the small blocks do not make much sense, because
1.: nearly all are 1 or 3 block wide
2.: shifting the fighter cockpit will result in gaps, if you try to build blocks on the side and you can not get it flush to any side but bottom and back
3.: it breaks conveyor ports

Unless it's just not pictured, add in the fighter cockpit, and I'm sold!! ;)

I got one more idea for a more or less usefull centered block.
big grid antenna maybe? i just noticed that some of my even blocks wide ships have their antenna offset too because i dont like to put them sideways to the travel direction.

So basicly make it a 2x2 block base.

just an idea tho' if you want to add that. I'd sure use it xD

This mod is a great idea. Altho I never build my ships an even number of blocks wide, I do end up building them an even number of blocks long, witch makes placeing gravity generators a pain. So I must say, thank you for making this mod. It will be a great help to many people.

Oh this is great! I have a lot of ships that have even spacing and while i normally just have an offset cockpit, this will be great for those times i need it central

You're welcome.
I had the same problem and as it is an easy fix and I found no other decent mod, I quickly mad it myself...

very nice! always bugged me that i cant place my pilotseat in the middle of most of my ships since i prefer to have a even amount of blocks in length/width. thank you!
