While I’m still trying to get some idea of how to put together the next modules for my moon colony I went ahead and made another ship. The devastator class orbital bombardment vessel. It has a capacity of 192 unguided explosive devices capable of surviving reentry although my phone immediately...

The logo itself is made up of a lot of smaller fairings and I just have to make sure to place it on a fuel tank that isn’t too wide (so that the logo or part of it doesn’t get covered over). On the transport vessels, the logo is 10x10 and it’s placed over 1x3 fuel tanks so that the fuel tanks...

Time and bp editing. Don’t really have too many tools available for editing things. Just a file editor since I do this all on my phone.

Never before seen and an absolutely revolutionary idea :cool:

I’ve finished some of the storage modules, but I decided to take a break from that and modify my current cargo transport vessel. Introducing the ITSA Barracuda! Modified from previous versions to have an extended cargo bay but at the cost of the two escorts. Due to no defences being present...

Both mechanical and assembly halls have successfully landed on the moon after transport onboard Bowhead. With this done, work will begin on the storage depot and other mining colonies. LEO Moon orbit undocking. Which I then had to redock because I forgot to transfer fuel to the hall. This...

Two mechanical and assembly halls have been completed and are ready for departure to the moon! I’ve held off on launching them for just a bit to see if I can manage to fit anything inside of them to save an extra launch in the future. These two structures are considerably large (100x50 meters)...

Mods are cool but separators edited to be super small and carried in larger amounts on rocket that’s 9 meters long will have to do. Makes me (mostly my iPhone) think and work harder. Putting viable weapons from a mod on any of my vessels would be too easy, no? It doesn’t have to be very large...

Exactly. Just a bunch of small staged separators and the outer fairing.

Baleen launched and delivered the center of the fuel depot along with four GTAM batteries to the moon. Launch Achieving orbit and transfer to the moon. Moon orbit. Separation of left side fuel reservoir from Baleen. Module landed. Landing of central fuel module. Completed center...

Due to a weapons system that was publicly displayed and shared with the stated intention of “defence” against “Callisto Trade Alliance” (perceived to be directly referring to the ITSA) vessels, while also possessing the ability to strike ground targets, it has become entirely necessary for the...

Thanks Altaïr! While I’m thinking of it, could you please change the name of this thread to “Interplanetary Trade & Security Alliance” and move it to general discussion whenever you’re able?

Thank you! I’m definitely going to need the creativity. I am excited to see what I’ll be able to achieve and come up with. I’m very much willing to collaborate and am inclined to encourage you to do so. I’m not necessarily concerned with my build style being matched. I think different build...

Progress lately has been pretty slow as I’ve been trying to get ideas down and get things built, but development of a central hub on the moon in which a new launchpad will be placed has begun. Some parts, mostly those of a fuel storage facility, have already been loaded onto Baleen. Planned...

Thanks! The SR-71 was definitely my inspiration for this one which I guess is pretty apparent.

Just did a quick little build today. I’ll definitely work on this a little more, but I’m putting it down as is for now.

Looks like a decent rocket Zack! I would suggest making what appears to be the “boosters” on the sides of the center body actually detachable so they provide some helpful initial thrust but then get out of the way. You definitely don’t need all of that to get to orbit. — along with the...

Baleen and Executor have been marked with the official insignia of the ITSA, the Alliance Darkstar, which is also a component of the chosen logo. Bowhead will receive the insignia when it returns. Executor was also edited to have “ITSA” included before its name.

All modules for the second colony have landed and are operational. Bowhead will now return to Earth to receive repairs. Surface communications module landing. Assembly of habitat modules. Drone station undocking as the last module carried by Bowhead. Completed colony.

All modules for the beginnings of the first colony have been undocked and landed. Helium-3 extractor undocking. Extractor landing among two others. Drone station landing. All modules landed. The main purpose of this colony will be to extract resources for future use in a planned...

Bowhead was loaded with its last two modules, drone transport modules, and is now ready for one painful and laggy liftoff! These drones (MK II) are a new variant over my MK I’s depicted on the right below. The landing legs are a little sketchy, but they get the job done. With everything...

I’m going to have to agree with that. I’ll be making that specific one in game to add it to future vessels. Probably not in red though.

Two more designs. I’m leaning more towards these two, but I’m wondering what other people think. BP editing can work wonders. Definitely interesting for me to look back at the Oslo and see the difference between it and my most recent cargo vessel, Baleen.

Possible logo for the ITSA from this point forward. I’m working on other possible designs as well

I’m going to allow ITSA operations and projects to be a bit more public from now on since it can be a little hard for me to just manifest ideas at time. This means that if people want me to utilise their modules or craft that I will do so in a way that what’s provided is still independent (not...
