Update - 1/12/2018 - Author Whitewalker created a pair of some very nice SV's matching the theme of the Cerberus and Manticore. I posted a couple new screen shots of these. Links to the creations below. Nice job Whitewalker!

Update - 1/4/2018 - So what are the differences between the Cerberus-PSV and Manticore-EX1?

The Manticore was a completely experimental design trying to build a ship with legs. It was inspired actually from the "Mind Flayer" in Stranger Things 2. I thought the look with the long legs was rather intimidating. The Manticore was trying to capture some of the look but in a completely functional space ship.

The Cerberus is basically a 2nd gen version of the Manticore. The idea was to make it sleeker, wider, and longer with better pathing and profile. I was never super happy with the side/rear profile of the Manticore although I very much liked the front and front side profile. Those lessons went into the Cerberus. In a nutshell, the intent was to improve on every aspect.

Having more available room I was able to add a proper engineering deck, larger hangar with side doors and a larger rear door for bigger possible HV/SV. I also had extra room to build a more extravagant crafting area. The central elevator connecting all 5 decks was also an improvement as getting around the ship was simpler and faster, also taking less space over all. I kept the same theme and general bridge design making them look like the same manufacturer but with some changes. Because of the increased size, I nearly doubled the turret mounts points as well. With farms, this is where I ran into a bit of snag. The odd ball shape of the farming areas made it challenging to squeeze in the 126 farm plots matching the Manticore. I did however accomplish this but had to run 3 Farms, Farm C, above the crafting area however is the big one containing 90 plots. One last addition is reserve rooms A and B located in the rear legs accessible via hangar catwalks. I understand people like to add more generators, RCS ext. These rooms allow for just that and are completely out of the way. You will find 1 RCS, a few fuel tanks and O2 tanks there now. More can be added. When parked, even though this is a class 5 ship, it consumes little power and can stay active for weeks (real time) without refueling. I hope this clears up any confusion on the two ships.

Update - 12/31/2017 - There seemed to be a problem with the number of cannon turrets on the ship. I am not sure how that happened as I built it in survival mode and had no issues with it then. I removed 2 cannon turrets from the bottom of the ship and updated the steam workshop file. It should be fixed now. Give it another try.
