@SledDriver The warp rings/loops are more or less bent pipes, just very fancy bent pipes.
@SledDriver oh. You could try making two halves, and then connecting them together. Or do it the hard way: manually rotating and shaping each block as needed.
@KerlonceauxIndustries Well, the point is that that bent-pipe shape is about as far as you can go using this technique -- you cannot make a shape that curves back on itself like the warp loops on the Orville. For that, you need blocks that intersect each other.
@SledDriver Oh. But the warp rings shouldn't be too much of a challenge, judging by the shape of that.
@KerlonceauxIndustries As a matter of fact, my scripts at the moment can't make that shape. My scripts work by setting run, rise, and offset along with length and width, so they can't make shapes that curve back on themselves, like loops. The closest they can come right now is something like this.
To make loops, I'll have to use blocks that overlap each other, and the resulting shape won't be smooth any more. I'll experiment with them when I have some free time and let you know how I go.
@SledDriver I presume....
@SledDriver I get the feeling your scripts can handle it. Would be interesting to see what you can do. Though I will say it is a really complex design. Especially those warp rings, or whatever they're called.
@KerlonceauxIndustries I don't know... I don't like the look of it. I might give it a go at some point.
@KSPFSXandSP evil-looking alien craft, I suppose.
@Mijmaj I don't get that reference
We have an incoming... what is that?
We have an incoming something.
FOUR. FOUR. FOUR.
Make the USS Orville, ECV-197 with your dark magic. It is a very organic design.
@SledDriver lol
XD
@DJ123 Dung beetles need love too...
yay dung beetle
