This is a nice little ship! It's looks cool AND it's built well. It's super easy to build from a projector. Gets a solid thumbs up from me! :zombiethumbsup:

Very wicked and sexy little fighter. I likes.

tankmayvin i would like to know what you think of my kimaris fighter knowing that you like this F-3 Viper so much if you type into the workship kimaris it should be the first thing to come up

This is a great looking little beast. Benefits greatly from the expanded tank capacity.
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 12:58pm 
i do think that most people will use these fighters in creative mode anyway...
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 12:57pm 
@[MGE]LeonserGT i think you are correct however i think that a dogfight can last 3-4 mins and if he has a very quick refuleing craft close by made just for this F-3 Viper it can function as a good assault fighter however as an Interceptor could do pretty well.

yeah ok. i will update it tomorrow or so
LeonserGT 6 Mar, 2016 @ 10:30am 
It's better to sacriifice 1-2 generators and add hydrogen tank - cuz without it, overall thrust will drop when you will add more thrusters, they will not add more power =/
Sad truth, cost me 2 minimalistic (but filled with loot) rockets in survival...
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:17am 
much appreciated! have done the same to yours ^^
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:15am 
this is a realy fantastic ship good job i favorited and rated thumbs keep up the good work
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:08am 
i think ill just take this fighter off the workshop until i really know how the hydrogen system works... ill stick to ion thrusters for know haha.
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:06am 
yeah i saw your ship on the workshop and thought wow thats one awesome ship:steamhappy:
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:05am 
i really like your ship! didnt recognise you as the author...
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:04am 
looking at your fighter im laughting at how instictivly similar my kimaris is to your viper
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 9:04am 
ok cool.
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:54am 
i recomend building a surport ship for this fighter once or if you rework it that has a small hangar to refuel it VERY quickly and then quickly get it out to battle every 3 or something minutes
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:53am 
my SRSF-1 A.F.X.R KIMARIS-A HYDRO B-TYPE (thats my fighters name if you want to see it and test it out) has 2 large hydrogen thrusters at the back and they have 1 oxygen genirators hooked up to each directly and one oxygen genirator in the middile of the ship witch is just kinda there for all the other thrusters.


ANYWAY my point is that hydrogen thrust depends on how much ice is being fed to the thrusters and it works well in survival even if it has a avrage 4 min fuel time
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:50am 
ok i will test that theory
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:49am 
nah dont worry i think hydrogen thrust depends on how much ice is being fed to the thrusters
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:48am 
the hydrogen thrust is weaker than what i experienced in creative mode so i would have to add more thrusters to the fighter. this problem requires me to re-do this fighter... :/
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:46am 
my main fighter has a fuel time of 3-6 mins however its egnough to win a dog fight
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:45am 
ok then cool
that gives it a low fuel time but better than my main hydrogen fighter due to the fact you have less forward thrust
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:44am 
or you can have cargo containers and fill them with ice and hook them up to the oxygen genirator
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:44am 
3 oxygen generators
Loptyeir 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:44am 
how many oxygen genirators? im pretty exterienced with hydrogen fighters that have low fuel time.
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:39am 
well... then i will have to do the same :/
LeonserGT 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:32am 
Bad then, cuz yeah, hydrogen thrusters can be powered directly from generator, BUT there's a small problem - they have significantly weaker thrust and this appears only in survival - in creative they work at 100% thrust anyway... Happened to me once, I was forced to rebuilt whole ship to add hydrogen tank =/
k_medlock  [author] 6 Mar, 2016 @ 8:26am 
Does it need a hydrogen tank or are oxygen generators fine aswell?
I only tested it in creative...
LeonserGT 6 Mar, 2016 @ 5:13am 
Have you tested it in survival, how many time it can fly with full hydrogen tank?
