- Make any issue in Starfield ship building a non-issue - Fix unattached module errors - recall your custom colors - how to double your landing gear without adding more landing gear - run 6 big engines to make cargo hauling a breeze, and many more!
I spent hours banging my head against the wall, frustrated at first with the limitations in ship building, only to realize that if you progress in level and use these tips and know where to look for unique parts, anything is possible! This ship moves 10k cargo capped at 100 mobility without even breaking a sweat. Ships get massive and expensive. Picking engines with the right required power will expand your ship's capabilities beyond what you thought possible! These ship building secrets in this guide are all things that once figured out will bring so much more to the table.

The game NEEDS the option to walk inside the ship in the builder mode, so you can see how the interior layout looks.
😁
Agreed it’s so frustrating because I can’t deck out the inside of my armory I even tried the auto save trick and all my armor and weapons end up in my cargo it’s so frustrating
And that to be available from the moment you want to buy a ship - also, to be able to see what parts are included in the build, just like you do when you go buy a car.. we only get a "number glimpse", but no actual make and model of the parts.
X-ray mode would be my preference. When you enter an interior in the Creation engine, it has to go through a loading screen, and every change to the ship would require exiting and re-entering the instance. If they could have a simplified 3D X-ray view though, that could be overlaid in the ship builder so you can see how it all connects and how basic furniture items like chairs, workbenches, etc. are arranged.
That said, I’d prefer if you could do a “module editor” mode where you can pick which side the door is on, which furniture items are included, and cycle through some different preset layouts.
Exactly, its like buying a house based on just the exterior
To touch on your very first statement, "dont let your first attempt at ship building turn you off," I'm over 200 hours in at level 78 and I just now built my first fully custom ship. So yes, come back to it and keep trying. It's fantastic.
Your on level 78. ALREADY. ,,, ,,,!!!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 THATS INCREDIBLE. I'm still stuck on level. 1. In this old mining building. trying to kill these guys in space suits,,, on creep. ,,, 😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕
Lander Thrust is 200:1 ratio. 1 thrust for 200 mass.
As you level up, I found not so much more powerful engines got unlocks, as you got smaller engines with the same power. When I got to level 57, I was able to retool my massive 9000+ cargo ship from class C to class B and gains mobility cause of the weight savings of the lighter parts. It's like at early level you NEED class C to have a powerful ship, but in later levels you can build class A and B ships that shred.
Just retooled the mantis this way. It's a b class cannon now! 💯
Only thing I would add in the part about modules not connected, if you can’t see it by just selecting all, you can select all and move the whole ship and the part not connected will stay where the ship used to be.
Yep, that so made my day when I figured it out.
Cocpit names pls.
I stumbled on this early before any real frustration. I consider myself lucky, so I'm glad these things are addressed in so many videos, now. 👍🏼
good tip!
@@craig.a.glesner
Haha, yeah, just found that out by coincidence today, really helpful!
I sincerely believe Bethesda purposely do not explain most of this stuff in game specifically to spur the community to create videos like this themselves. I appreciate all the insight and very detailed yet simplified explanation of shipbuilding. You just explained how everything worked and tips for building without saying "tHiS iS tHe BeSt DeSiGn EvEr. FiGhT mE!" Kudos
Sincerely...You Nailed It. Attitude & Presentation are Important.
Love the game got like 500 hours in. I totally agree because they skipped on tutorials because they knew creators would fill it in and gives the creator something to do. Unfortunately, I think that discovering the game is discovering how to play the game and not finding new lands to occupy. There’s so much that this came to turn into. I hope it gets there between better discovery better Mabs better building star ports, so much stuff so much possibility. Hope it gets there.
I don't think they did it for the creators. Rather, that one of the strengths of the game is the wide variety of things you can do, and if they put in tutorials for everything, it would get annoying fast. Added to that, the faster drives mean loading is near instant, so no real point to putting tips there, like used to be the standard. And then they probably further justified it by it being more realistic that way, and that players can get to an acceptable level without it (which they can, pretty much, but it can also be very frustrating when a player, for whatever reason, fails to hit that level).
But they really should have added a computer in the cockpit of ships, as well as certain homes, that lets you voluntarily check out different things. Like how, for example, space suit resists work, or how much landing gear is needed per X mass. That sort of thing. We shouldn't have to go to an outside the game resource for this. Especially since most casual players will not do that. They'll play the game, and that's that. And while in their previous fantasy games this type of thing could be immersion breaking, here, it wouldn't be. It's the future, which means there should be a space-wikipedia for our characters to access.
That there isn't, well, this, as well as the lackluster inventory management system, is probably part of why they had to tune down the effects of hostile environments and the conditions they inflict, because players wouldn't know and couldn't easily adjust to the situation.
It's just another example of Bethesda being kind of bad at designing the systems we use to interact with their world-building.
@@Axterix13 Oh I agree. A portion of my comment was in jest, and they can and should have made some early quests that essentially described the systems and how they work. i.e. the ship was damaged in the initial pirate attack and you needed to rebuild it, and as you do your companion/narrator/ship tech describes the basics as you piece your ship back together.
This is such a good video for new players. As someone with about 450 hours in the game, I wish a video with this simple explanation of shipbuilding would have been available way back when I was first starting. Most of the videos I saw went into very complex ways of min-maxing instead of just a simple explanation of some of the basics of the process like this one does. Great video! You get a like and subscribe from me.
450 hours?? My god!
Thanks a lot, man 🙂
450? impressive, and here i thought my 220 hrs were a lot
@@immasword and I'm only level 75. Granted I played for about 30 hours in my first playthrough and didn't like the skills I had started with and what I was leveling because the descriptions of what the skills actually do was so misleading. So I started over. And my 75 levels were actually earned through missions and side mission. The only crafting I did was what was absolutely necessary in order to build storage units and warehouses. So I didn't use any backdoor methods of leveling. I don't have anything against that, I'm just saying that the only reason I'm only level 75 in this playthrough with 445 hours in game is because I only leveled by doing missions and killing enemies and clearing dungeons/enemy strongholds. I'm sitting here holding out on completing the final main story mission Revelation just so I can try to level up a couple of more skills...and I'm trying something I heard about. I already committed to Andreja in her version of marriage, but I'm currently trying to see if I can romance Sarah and marry her while in the committed relationship with Andreja. I heard it works if you pass a high level persuasion check with Andreja. We'll see. So far my relationship with Sarah is progressing right along. We just finished her personal quest and she's reciprocating the love language. So there's that. lol.
I’m frustrated trying to find good interiors that make sense for the ship and flow. For instance, finding beds for all of my crew and passengers.
The way it fills your cargo to max capacity with misc junk everytime you even say…change the color of your ship, I find absolutely infuriating
Yes i agree but i also look at it as the game giving me free things to sell because it regenerates
It's also an easy way to level commerce when you sell.
I thought it stupid as well.
I actually like it because I generally have a bunch of cargo space anyway and it’s free money 🤷🏼♂️
me too man, at first i thought it was dope because i could keep selling them to the kiosk but after my first play through it did just get annoying. there’s no select all like there is for resources and it just takes too damn long to either sell it all or jettison it
For the flat dock on bottom thing, you get a like.
Very helpful vid! Someone has probably already pointed this out, but Port is left (red navigation light) and Starboard is right (green navigation light). The U.S.M.C. Taught us a very easy way to remember; “the Captain drank all the port and left”.
Port and left both have 4 letters! Screw the Captain, but remembering the Nav lights, all I can remember saying is "big red one" that was for #1 side was the red light side.
Port and left both have four letters.
Quick PSA: the lander thrust to mass ratio needs to be at least 1:200 to pass the flight check.
Glad you mentioned the Nova landers with 4 thrust (supports up to 800 mass per lander) - when I found them, they made building smaller footprint yet high mass ships so much easier!
100% confirmed 1 landing thrust to 200 ship mass.
This was the most important answer I had been searching for. Haha thanks!
One way to get early access to some of the higher end parts is to purchase the customized ships in a staryard. These ships can usually be spotted by the unusual paint scheme they carry. Some examples for each class: A - Warhorse from Neon, B - Shieldbreaker from New Atlantis, C - Narwhal from Neon. A lot of people will recommend the Narwhal as a purchase because it has a reactor with 36 points of power.
So once you purchase a ship with said parts you'll have access to those parts in your landing pad parts? What if you sell the ship. Do the parts go with it?
I just jumped in, with the new content, basically blind a few days ago. I stumbled upon the Mantis ship, which is really good compared to the Frontier. It kicks ass in dog fights. And half the time, the Pirates shit their pants and run, as soon as they see my ship lol. "It's the Mantis!". "Lets get th outta here!" Lmao.
The only downside is the limited cargo space, but the built in shielded compartment is nice.
I hijacked a veruun ship, and decided to modify it. All with only class A. I bumped her up from a 2 to 4 crew cockpit. Swapped around the existing 2x1 and single habs, which allowed me to go from single to double stacked cargo containers, and a 1 block shorter length overall, which looks better imo.
I upgraded the 2 side engine to the best i could get, added a matching 3rd top mounted engine to the back, upgraded the grav, and bumped the fuel up from 50 to 160.
All in all, i spent about 80k between the reg and rebuild. I have a class A ship, that seats 4 crew and 2 passengers, holds 3200kg cargo, plus 200kg shielded, with a jammer, and can travel up to 160. She only has 50 mobility, but shes good the couple points i put into piloting, and the extra perks from 2 additional crew. The hull is now over 600, and It came equipped with laser, missiles, and Particle, so she handles herself well in a fight, And she has every work station set up, like a full workshop on wings, with room for an 900kg in extra storage containers, gun racks, 6 beds, and displays.
I know there will be shit that blows this out the water later on, but shes the workhorse I needed to get me through missions. I couldn't do any cargo runs, and now I can take almost all of the cargo missions ive seen so far, deliver passengers at the same time, fend off pirates, and be able to run around and explore unincumbered.
So far im enjoying the game, and this has beeny favorite part.
I saved this video and delayed watching it for way too long. Wow, I have over 950 hours into this game and with your help I now learned about the connection point arrows on habs and how to copy my existing ship colors when adding a new component!
Besides modifying/upgrading the Frontier and Razorleaf I have modified (3) captured ships of each class A, B, & C by exchanging habs and buying the best components and weapons for each class, watching your simple easy to understand explanations would of saved me countless hours of frustrating head banging difficulty had I watched this vid sooner! Thank you very much for your dedication and efforts in schooling us!
This has been one of the most helpful tips and tricks videos I've seen for shipbuilding, good job! I will also point out that the power requirements for the engines also apply to weapons; there's some with a max power of 2 that you can have 6 of!
Compared to other videos this one contains so much useful information... I watched dozens of them... wish I would've found this first. Would have saved me a lot of time and nerves😅
I'm glad it was helpful!
The SAL-6830 engines unlock after Walter's quest on the main storyline, but only if you are diplomatic with Slayton at the end. They are the most powerful class C engines in game, even at level 200+ on ng+10 and beyond in my playthrough.
I just started looking into my ship, I have been stealing them but realized that very few allows upgrade and it is easier to grab one you like and upgrade it like you explained.
I am still on level 27 96h and knowing that I will never see some parts until I reach 30s, saved me big time.
Thank you
The magic number is level 60 for normal unlocks that are not hidden behind quests.
Best tip I found is - always put engines on last. That way you can scroll through them and easily see what gives you the best mobility/top speed. This changes with a lot of factors and IIRC the “best” engine won’t be best for every ship.
I do that as well. Makes life much easier.
HEY BUDDY!! I owe you a TON of thanks: for weeks(!!!) I was frustrated with Ship Building; in fact I couldn't even figure out even the most basic parts of how to operate that screen... until, after watching your video, I sat down for a day and FORCED myself to learn it; now it is my absolute favorite part of playing Starfield; I have made ships with completely different styles (cargo transport; military fighter, Mantis and Frontier retrofits and an Outpost Supply and Construction vessel, that has a CRANE included!!) - if it wasn't for learning all the lessons learned here, I would have given up! Thanks for the highly detailed video and great ideas!
Awesome! I'm glad it was helpful :)
WoW! Thank You so much! Yeah...my Head is Bruised from all the Banging against the walls i was doing. I stopped Building because i would SPEND HOURS being FRUSTRATED just to scrap it all and turn off my XBOX. I set a Goal to get to Level 60 when All Ship Parts are available and then Try Again. Interestingly, I just hit Level 60 this morning and stumbled onto your Video while eating Lunch just now. My half-Hour is Over & I've Learned so much! I also Appreciate the Frustration you speak of as I've experienced it but gave up in the end. There's so much to do in this game so I just moved on... Now I'm Ready again and so Much Thanks to You for your Inspiration. So many Great Tips... Custom Colors & the Non-Attached Fix...Brilliant. I can't Thank You Enough for the Time You've Invested. You are the Pioneer!
When ship building, remember that al pieces on screen count to mass etc for mobility, even floating bits you've moved away to play around. So when doing the storage and Mob went down to 91, that's because the part moved was off to the side. Delete them and the Mob gets recalculated without that mass.
Ship modules really should be able to be sold for full price. Nothing hurt more than outfitting your ship, realizing you hate it, but losing 90% of the value of the parts you sell back. Save scumming is pretty much mandatory for ship building.
Another cool thing about the Stroud-Eklund bay is that the housing matches the landing gear in shape. So does the side-docker, so you can have that on the other side. Makes it look very sleek.
@4:45 the filled circle inside the large circle means this is a structure snappoint only. Weapons only go on the filled square. Look at a Stroud Eklund Viking cockpit for an example of all 3 points - square for weapons, circle for snapping and chevron for door.
Thanks, this makes more sense now.
Thank you!!! These helped me immensely. Spent last night rebuilding my ship and I did more with it, EASILY, than I thought possible. I have a huge cargo hold now at 17k and it moves great. More building over weekend. Again, thank you.
Colors tip: After you've added all your new parts, select all parts at the same time. When you go to edit the colors, do the one pixel back and forth like Darkdally did here in the video on all three colors while all parts are selected. It will update the new parts to match.
Be sure to double click on one of your prior parts when selecting all or the colors that show up in the palette will be those of the new part instead.
Great tips! I'm nearly at 350 hours in game and you taught me some new things. Like the color trick to match custom colors!🤦🏻♂️ Oh and the landing bay. I was so frustrated with it being in the back and facing backwards...You're simple tips help me correct it! My Light Frigate is now about perfect. Thank you tons!
I haven't read all the comments but 2 things. 1. Thanks for this video it's great, man :) 2. For your ship colors, if you select one that has the colors you want and then select the piece you want to change you can then do the "slider shimmy" and it will change them both. This also works with select all as long as the piece you are starting with has the colors you want to apply. Thanks again for the great video :)
Awesome tip, thank you!
As a member of the casual ship building community, this kind of video is very helpful. Really good stuff, thank you!
This video should be mandatory for beginner shipbuilders. It's just that good.
About the only thing in this video that needs further explanation is when he's talking about those Slayton Aerospace SAL-6830 engines. They are the best engines in the game, but are only available IF you complete the mission "All That Money Can Buy" in Neon, given by Walter Stroud, and you choose the diplomatic option to complete the mission. IF you pull off the diplomatic/cooperation solution for that particular quest, Stroud and Slayton will team up to develop the SAL-6830 engine, otherwise it's never developed and won't be in the game. So, do that particular side quest correctly, or you'll never have those awesome engines. As far as I know, this is the only ship part that's existence in the game, is dependent on what decision you made in a particular side quest. So, complete All That Money Can Buy correctly, or you'll never see the best engines in the game. FYI
Thanks man. And yeah, I didn't realize that yet about those engines at the time I made this. I appreciate it.
Seriously, thank God for TH-camrs. Because if it wasn't for all of you, I would never have been able to play this game to the extent that I have. I honestly do not understand how Bethesda puts out a game like this and then expects players to just figure it all out. It's a real testament to the gaming community and their passion that these creators are able to guide us when those who've made the game have failed.
I wasn’t sure I would learn anything but I’m glad I did because I did learn new things. Thanks!
Oh yeah, those Poseidon engines are sick! Love them.
Thank you so much for the information!
I learned a lot from this inspiring video alone. That one tip of finding what's not connected will be very helpful. Had that problem last night and after a while I gave up on it because I couldn't find one piece. Lol
I'm still trying to figure out how placemat of the ladders and doors of the interior work.
I'm sure I'll figure it out.
I'm still in class B. I learned that parts of the ship are throughout the 11 places. I was wondering why one thing showed up at one place but not another.
I truly recommend this video to anyone who is shipbuilding even if they are in class A or B. This video covers a lot which will be less stressful while building.
Thank you for the inspiration and the knowledge.
I'm glad the video was helpful. I've been stuck before on ships for a couple of hours, too afraid to lose my progress by quitting, before I figured out how to find unattached modules :)
Hey bro, thumbs up for the "Select All" trick to find Unattached Modules 👍👍 Give this guy some likes everyone.
Thanks for the video and the words of encouragment. I've been spending hours in ship builder trying to get my bays to work and not knowing little things mentioned in the video.
Amazing video.
Ive made a super massive hauler with over 30,000 cargo but it has a mobility of 0. I covered it in turrets and a vanguard shield and now mobility doesnt matter, I can take a lot of hits and hit enemies without having to face them 😊
Had a 30k hauler mobility was 10 was still fast ship in a straight line with great boost speed.
Had 12 auto turrets could kill fleets of ships no problems.
Really like to make ships with no ladders except the docker.
Thus I use the Cabot cockpits.
Also the NG-20 landing gear is awesome.
Loved ur video. Just reached lvl 25, saved half a million credits and now ready to build my 1st ship. Can't wait. This video is definitely going save me some headaches!
I'm glad it helped!
I have just started trying to modify some of the beginner ships and it definitely can be overwhelming and time consuming. This video has helped answer a lot of questions I had.
The docking port on the bottoms is and extremely helpful tip. The only ladder on my current ship build is to a single 1x1 Hab to hold a docking port, which I don't care for that much, but was a compromise.
As far as I know, your character level has nothing to do with your ship parts availability. Piloting and Starship Design skills are what determine your access to ship modules. If you put all your skill points into the tech tree you can unlock everything by about character level 15. Great video, I learned a lot.
Darkdally making Starfield content has made *my* day. Your Ghost Recon content is the best on TH-cam by a long shot. I'm currently running a homeless bounty hunter build (picture the Mandalorian before he met baby Yoda and you get the general idea), but I'll be devouring your ship building content when I do my next playthrough (space piracy is definitely on the agenda). Thanks for more awesome content my man, enjoy the rest of your day.
Thanks man! I hope to have more up soon
Same here. The connection of the landing to cockpit drove me crazy. The tip on the arrows is a godsend. TY mate 👏👏👏👍
This is the most complete detailed guide to ship building I've seen and answer some issues I've been struggling with 🎉
Oh and once i found out i can select all and color the entire ship at once that was a game changer.
Easily the most helpful ship building guide videos I've come across. Learned some new useful stuff
Not only a great video, but breaking it out in chapters is super handy. Thanks!
I really appreciate this, and will probably watch it multiple times, but I too found ship building to be so aggravating that I nearly gave up on it. I finally was able to build a limited mobility ship with a ridiculous amount of storage (29,000+ storage capacity) which doesn't matter if you're able to fast travel with it, but can be a sitting duck if pirates or starborn appear. Thank you for sharing your experience to help us simplify the whole ship building process.
P.S. - You also have a new subscriber. Looking forward to more videos.
I haven't dug in yet but will definitely come back here for help!
I was just thinking the other night how nice it would be if the loading dock was on the 'front' since the game always puts you that way landing. The time saved not having to run around my ship ever time would be HUGE! (the ladder spot mentioned is an added bonus too!)
thank you, for your tips on engine power ended up taking the Frontier to upper C class trying to get enough power to add engines for above 66 maneuverability without error. The 4 sal-6830's did the trick up to 86 she's now the defiant small overpowered & lethal lol. I wish these special parts & where to get them were advertised in the game. I can see why the all-parts mod is so popular
You helped me with at least 3 things I didn’t know thanks 🙏
I was aware that you could get your colors by moving the slider around and back to what it was but i didn't know that it puts all the colors in recent from doing it to one of them (I've been moving the slider for all 3 custom colors). You don't actually have to select the piece before clicking Left Stick however, you just have to hover over the piece you want change. I also didn't realizing that selecting all would reveal the unnatched piece. Great video!
Thanks!
Wow you cleared so many unanswered questions I had about shipbuilder thanks!
I needed this last night, I spent an hour and a half rebuilding the Mantis with a new cockpit and everything. Didn't realize it had a Taiyo landing bay that only enters horizontally, no ladder up into the ship as I designed.
True about the cargo thing. I was so proud of my first ship having cargo at 3,000. Now my dedicated hauler has over 45,000 cargo capacity. Mobility is 0, but hey, it's a space train.
The SAL-6830 engines are unlocked by progressing partway through the Constellation quest line (doing Walter's quest, and finding the diplomatic solution at the end). It has nothing to do with your character level. They aren't "just available", and I don't believe there are any bigger engines in the game later.
Also, they'll only be available at the Stroud-Ecklund staryard in the Narion system.
Thanks, you probably saved me hours of flying around looking for those things!
One of the best engines in the game too.
Your tip on finding the unattached module🤯. Thanks for the content.
After many hours using existing game ships with rear landing bays, I finally built my own ship: like Darkdally illustrated in this video - front landing bay which loads you facing the cockpit hatch is HUGE…I use a two-level cockpit with docking hatch on top at the front. SUCH a better layout. No matter if I’m docked at a space station or on a planet, I can get to my cockpit quickly to take off - no more running around habs opening hatches just to get to the pilot seat.
Ship building in Starfield has been so much fun! I hope they some how add more to it.
What I learned from this video is that the engine I should have been using is a quest unlock. And here I was thinking I just slap six SAL-6330s on my ships and can call it a day. Thanks for the learning opportunity!
Yeah man, and I didn't realize it was a quest unlock. I just noticed that it was there in the shop when previously it was not. I'm glad I could give some good tips in the video.
Awesome vid for how small your channel is. No BS filler content, all great tips.
Don’t have this game yet and my console is broke but this was a great video. I look forward to seeing more.
The error check using selection is incredibly useful. Thanks
Excellent video. Truly. I had so many outstanding questions on ship building, and this video cleared it up. The only thing I don't think was explicitly mentioned in the video, is the landing-gear-trust to weight ratio; which I believe is 200. So for every 1 trust, you can handle 200 mass.
I built an A-10 Thunderbolt , an SU-34, and several Future-Fighter style ships. The possibilities are near endless.

Shipbuilding in and of itself is worth an expansive DLC that resolves many issues and lets you do much more.
Oh yeah, and I just imagine them introducing a new manufacturer with more parts as well. I'm sure they will. I think of the DLC for Fallout 4 they released focusing on building.
Great vid, really excited to get back to tinkering with my ship now. You've killed slot of frustration for me. Thanks
That select all thing for finding unconnected ship module would have been a lifesaver. I moved my entire ship piece by piece over to the left and rebuilt it. It took like 20 minutes.
Thank you for this video. I really appreciated the content, and I definitely have some ideas for ship designs now.
It's great to see you doing Starfield videos. I watch your Ghost Recon videos all the time.
Amazingly useful vid!! The arrow thing showing you where you can physically move around saved me sooo much frustration!!
Awesome! Glad the vid was helpful
@@DarkdallyThe arrow thing my gosh, 200 hours in and it never caught my eye. It’s tied with the select all to find unattached components. Excellent vid Mr Dark. And Your little comment about using a controller on pc made my head spin.
The strongest engines I have found are on Gargarn in Alpha Centari. They have 36000 thrust.
Yeah but u can only have 3. U can have 6 sal-6830s which make the most thrust and maneuverability in the game by far
Ya but can only get those Sal engines if you complete the all money can buy quest. From stroud. Correct? NG+ can lock you out of that quest if you choose to skip the main quest lines
@@randyfrench2022 ... Every extra engine weights more than biggest storage box so more engines gives you more power and same time take some off coz it weight, Im not sure what is a real balance of it, how more power you will have when you consider more engines with weight vs less engines but with small weight and big power rate
With 6 of those u can have around 4200 mass and still have 100 mobility. I have 10.5k cargo and still able to have 100 mobility
@@randyfrench2022 and
@damnbrosky thanks for this. I've been thinking the extra weight isn't worth it but you've prompted me to go look and there's pretty good difference in maneuvering thrust (which is where my ship struggles) so I might be a convert to 2 power engines. I've been trying to reduce weight as the thrust maneuvering was about the same for A class engines, I forgot you're fitting 50% more engines so getting about 50% more vectored thrust
Soo many insides! Thank You so much for sharing many technical stuff. I faced all those issues and now I know how to fix them. Thank You
Very useful, thank you. It took me days to work out why I couldn't access the new habs I'd installed - I didn't realise you had to join them properly. I do think the shipbuilder is unessarily finicky and complicated though - it does my head in.
Oh man the dock beinbg flipped fss... it allways made me design stupidly but now omfg.. YOU THE KING sir!
Omg... the color trick... THANK YOU!!!
I tell u what, I've learnt loads just from this one video alone, the game shud tell u all this, but thanku for makin this as plain and simple for ppl like me, alot of youtubers go so fast it's hard to keep up. So, cheers. Ps, I've subscribed to ur channel now. 👍
Great tips! I especially like the tip on how to find the unattached modules. That is invaluable!
Select all and see the unconnected modules. Nice. Now I can select all and move the ship over to get at the parts with out a total rebuild. Thanks.
select all - omg, out of all the helpful items in the video that blew me away. lol such a simple method. thank you
This was great! The engine power allotment was an eye opener. Thanks!
Great job explaining these tips. Now to watch the rest of your videos. Thanks
I'm glad you liked the vid!
By far the most helpful guide I’ve seen. This should be called The Manual for Shipbuilding.
Your video massively helped me as I learned new things. Thanks for taking the time.
Thaniks for solving the unattached modules mystery.
Thank you so much for this video! I have struggled so much with this! I am only 5 min in and this is exactly what I needed!😅 next I need to see if you cover the different Living quarters I can never find the ones I like(have seen, but may also be limited by my levels)
Thanks! I haven't covered different hab modules, but I thought about making a video for that.
After tens of hours building ships and over 20+ ships built, I just discovered 2 days ago that the dock can be mounted under the ship and it changed the game for me lol. I'm like... well in space, there is no up, so I should be able to put a dock under the ship right? I tried it, it worked and I almost cried LOL. Also I hope in the next big update, they add a function to choose hab openings because my bigger ships are basically mazes with the way it just autoconnects with absolutely no practicality at all.
This video was extremely helpful. Thank you.
Hadn't realized how expensive ship building becomes later in the game. So it's not a waste of time collecting weapons and gear loot and selling it. Had 1.2 million credits at Level 40 and now 2.4 million at Level 61. Looking forward to using the tips in this video. Still need to learn ship combat strategy because with PAR weapons (per Angry Turtle) on my Star Eagle I'm still destroying groups of enemy ships on sight and never even Lock on.
I had a really big ship and when I wanted to make it smaller. I ran into a lot of issues. It annoyed me thank you this video helped me a lot!
I am blown away... Subscribed! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Excellent video. Some really useful stuff here! 😁👍
Very well put together video with great tips. I was just thinking about trying to build a ship instead of just make a few modifications, now that I have leveled starship engineering to 3 and can get some good stuff. made a page of notes to refer to when I start. Also some great comments with a couple more good pointers.
Good luck!
Great thanks can now match colours to my new parts.
Already got my info the first 4 minutes then other vids I’ve watched
I like using Taiyo 3G landing gears with either type of side mount gears. For fact, I have had glitches after landing. I would be stuck behind the bay or under the ship. Using 3G, I can place ladder bay entrance anywhere on the ship. Walk freely underneath the ship.
Thank you for understanding of the engines.
I was stuck as well. I wanted make a two level ship with walkout side area wanted put engine on them.
As a beginner ship builder addict, this was the video I wanted 🎉❤
I respect this video, normal gamer,, not lol 9000 with everything done and making it sound so easy, appreciate the info man! Been playing since day one and just learned about the unconnected module trick, +1 follower
Thank you for this breakdown.
I had very much the same problems at the beginning. The ship builder is great but it can be a bit overwhelimng at first, these are the common problems that may turn a lot of people off. great video!
