Diagram of The Trident Type M

Dec 11, 2011 don661 link
In result of Alloh's request found Here, I came up with this. I havent had much time to put real work into it. Kinda basic.
I may (depending on if Y'all like it or not) do some for the rest of the cappies, let me know if you do or not.
So here it is.

Make one of the Cargo Holds into a Crew Quarters. You've left no where to sleep! ;)

I lke it as first sketch, reverse-engineering... Thx!

We need quartes, as Keller requested, and location for most major components in manufacturing... as optics, computers, etc.

I edited it. Added an Infirmary, Galley, Quarters, and Computing Center.

uhm...Computing Center at front? I'd put it somewhere *in* the ship (3 dimensional mid), since if that thing is destroyed/damaged you'll go nowhere, the whole energy distribution will go down, no engines, no jumps, no communications...

Yep. Standard ship design (be it wet navy or space) would hold that the most vital portions are near the center, allowing them the most protection possible.

You really only need 1 cargo hold on the Trident, given its capacity is only 600cu. Consider the size of the Behemoth (capacity 200cu) which is little more than a cargo hold with a strapped on cockpit and engines. 600cu is only 3x200, so given your diagram and the overall size of a Trident, only 1 cargo hold would be enough. That should leave space for other stuff.

The galley is almost bigger than the crew quarters. I'd like to live on THIS ship. Heck gourmet meals every meal!!

Still, it looks really good so far!

Blue letters on the black background are terrible.

Plz, a Top view next, to improve?

where are docked ships stored? Ammo? Repair facilities?

Make all storage goes in front block, open room for R&R facilities, computers, etc. on rear block...

And thanks again for the effort, Don!

Hehe this is cool.

Wouldn't the docking bay need a tad more space though? You can fit 4 Behemoths in a Trident Type M. :)

You can fit 4 Behemoths in a Trident Type M.

Is that really limited? How?

hhmmm... make rear cargo bay become ships hangars, ammo storage, repair and reload facilities... not sure the proper nautical terms in english.

Also include locations for:
- Master Computing System
- Optical Sensor
- 80MW Inverted Pulse Displacement Engine
- 200MW Toroidal Hyper-Plasma Reactor

I dont have enough room for the titles to be large enough to be readable And have enough room for all this extra stuff.

You could have more than one view. One like the above, for the overall view that just points out major features. Then you could have zoomed in views that show more details of specific sections of the ship. If you're willing to spend that much time on it anyway. Main thing is to have fun of course.

I am very busy, But like Rin said, These are kind of gigs that im making up. If i had more time i definitely would.

Can you include a silhouette of a moth XC and/or some other ships to show relative size?
