The update process of the Interstellar Explorer has started.

I'm working on an SMU website, which will have all lore and information available.
I will be posting the link once its done.

Yeah that was my favorite part about your cargo ship. The Owner's Manual adds a level of immersion you don't see in many other ships. Actually your ships kind of remind me of Star Citizen.

You're welcome, I'm glad you like it. There are probably some things that need to be updated, but most of the things should work right out of the box.

I hope to have some additional time to finish up the Owner's Manual, so I can release it with the next update.

Ok, good to know. Thank you for the amazing ship!

Hi, don't have a definitive release date, but I'm guessing pretty soon.
I actually have some time on my hands now, so I will be updating my builds. This vessel will get the improvements mentioned above plus a few small guns.
The military version will be released after this.

If we happen to get the lighting model update for the Stable Branch, next patch tomorrow, I will probably update the planets first, and then the vessels.

I'll be posting more info on the progress of things to come.

Cheers!

Any idea as to when we will get the military version?

Hi there SpaceWolf, there will be a military version of this vessel. Although I'm thinking of adding a few small weapons.
So stay tuned, I have a lot in hands right now, but I'm trying my best to finish everything up for Scenarios.
QuintusJ 13 Sep, 2016 @ 8:29pm 
Personally I recommend Oki Edited if you do add weapons.
QuintusJ 13 Sep, 2016 @ 8:20pm 
I know it's an exploration ship but could you add a few weapons?

The blueprint has been updated check out the Change Note for more info.

I've fixed some slight issues, and updated the g-menu controls.

Sweeeet TY TY :D
SMU  [author] 10 Jun, 2016 @ 8:31pm 
Ok, great. No problem. I'll be uploading it tomorrow. ;)
SEModder4  [developer] 10 Jun, 2016 @ 8:27pm 
Yeah anything and everything in the world will be saved in the world. :D
SMU  [author] 10 Jun, 2016 @ 8:12pm 
Hi there, thanks for the compliments. Sure thing, but I do have a doubt. In a world version the rover and shuttle can be attached without disappearing on upload?
I'm asking this because I had no luck uploading the vessel with the vehicles attached ( blueprint )

Cheers!

@Space Mining Universal,

This Ship is AWESOME, but can you Please please make a world version to. :D

As of yesterday's update,1.38.004 there seems to be a problem with MMaster LCD script.
I have a 2 programmable block setup where each runs different area screens. Now it tends to spike the CPU many times making things sluggish. Not sure what's going on but I will try to fix this ASAP.
SMU  [author] 10 Jun, 2016 @ 1:33pm 
Owner's Manual coming soon! Stay tuned!

Anubis, hi there. I used the following skyboxes for the images:
a) Itis Galaxy ( http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=523446488&searchtext= )
b) Stellar Fields ( http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=523925570&searchtext= )
Thanks, hope you enjoy the ship!

Skybox? The galaxy looks awesome. The ship is even greater!

Please upload world version.
SMU  [author] 6 Jun, 2016 @ 7:08pm 
I've decided to re-upload this updated version to a new workshop file. Otherwise it might have gone unnoticed.
Anyway this update brings you the exploration rover, the vessel controls have been fixed, all issues have been taken care of. The most important updated aspect is probably the 2 additional Helicat Thrusters and the redesigned Ion thrust system that allow the Starlight Explorer to take-off and land @3.5gs.
Now the vessel includes the Exploration Rover that will allow 5 crew members to explore the new found terrain.
All vehicles ( Exploration Vessel, Exploration Rover, Escape Shuttle ) are conveyored up and survival ready!!
