    @harveyrobinson8 Back when I was building them manually, I used simple numerical sequences to design the curves. See my comments here for a description.

    @harveyrobinson8 I'd have to think about it. I can do a modern hull, no problem, but 18th century hulls are more complex.

    @hopotumon I can build something similar. The EDI just doesn't look good to me.

    @RMark1 I only use Fine Tuner for one thing: to select a bunch of parts and move them on and off the base. Everything else is done in Overload or by editing the XML directly.
