Carriers

When this addon will be finished then players can build up an escort fleet within a main ship.

The hull of Carriers is barely fit into a standard 64m x 192m x 250m dock, together with the carried ships.

There are three landing decks on Carriers: two on sides and one on top over the engines.

Side decks can hold 1-1 large ships (like a Boa) or as many smaller ships as can fit into the 2x140m long decks, for example 4 Asp, 6 Fer-De-Lance or 8 Adder.

The top deck can hold exactly one ship with less than 35m height, 130m width and 95m length which mean a Cobra Mark III or smaller ships.

The top position acts as a command bridge: Commanders in this ship will be able to steer the Carrier and launch immediately without undocking. In this case the Carrier is a large escort bay under the Commander's ship.

Currently two models are ready with Cobra Mark I and Cobra Mark III ships on board. You can do a test flight but the escorts are decorations only until the scripts will be finished.

Instructions

There are savegames in the package, copy into your oolite-saves directory if you want a test flight.
