It's your choice as captain, since they're both available.Should we be bringing Mindy 2's or 3's? 2 seems to be standard, but 3 is being rolled out right now.
Giving it anything more than one shuttle of the smallest type is unbelievable to me. The Yui's shuttle bay has always been extremely tiny. Even the shower room on the ship layout is bigger than the shuttle storage area shown. For this reason, in the YSS Yui plot back in the day, we put 6 armor racks in the shuttle area and just docked all our shuttles using the ship's docking ports and the docking ports on the top and bottom of the T4 shuttle.It says the Y7 has room for four fighters, and room for one shuttle. Does that mean it has room for all of those at once, or four fighters or one shuttle?
It also has room for tanks/trucks on top of that?
No way!It also has room for tanks/trucks on top of that?
The part that looks like a spear point.This might be a dumb question, but which end of the Y7 is the front? The long point or rounded part?
I suggest making one page for the ship that has all the ship info and modifications and possibly the inventory, and another page for the plot that has all the OOC information. I recently did this for the Eucharis. The ship page is in stararmy: and the plot page is in plot: .Are there any important sections I'm missing on the page? I tried to keep it relatively slim, for now.
Seems good to me.Are there any other positions I should be listing as open? Those seemed like the standard ones to me.
Yeah, you can start the first thread in open RP and add it to the list of plots. Once you finish your first mission/thread you're eligible for a subforum. Subforums are not needed to be on the list of plots.Finally, I was hoping to get this off the ground this month. Now that the holiday season has passed. What else do I need to do to get started?
Do I need to just post in the open area, or can we get this put up on the main list of running plots, or what?
That's up to you. In the Eucharis, the MEGAMI rarely shows up because I don't want her to overshadow anybody.On the Sakishima, the MEGAMI tends to pop up all over the ship as a volumetric image. Is this something standard that most SA ships can handle, or is it somehow set up special?
@Toshiro made the DOGA art.Is there someone to contact to see about getting either a slightly different shot of the Y7 for the Heartbreaker's page, or at least a recolor? I don't know who has the original files for those ship pictures, they all seem to have been created in the same 3D modeling program, from how similar they all look.
Yeah.The two players so far are using established characters, but if Aendri or others create new ones, I can run the first thread without having to worry if the new characters are approved yet, right? Just point them to the app area for now and make sure someone approves them before we have an official forum?
I would recommend at least running the captain through the new character forum.Edit: So the captain and any NPCs I create are basically 'approved' whenever the plot is, right?
