Charon-CH10 X

(original ship by jrandall, found here: https://steamproxy-script.pipiskins.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1684546785
lil thanks to west938 for CPU extender placement idea. A big special thank you to jrandall for making his awesome ships, particularly the Charon-CH10 and then giving his permission for me to share my version of it)

So long story short, I love this ship and it has been a constant in mine/our (my gf) many many playthrough. However with each playthrough we have modified/upgraded it to this version.

What it features:
*Basically eXpandability by adding 2 block width on the port and starboard sides
*Raised the bridge neck by a block allowing better field of view
*Lowered the landing gear by a block and then housed it...effectively raising the ship up to allow underside docking.
*Added "suggested" markings for shield (stern), teleporter (bridge), a marked with "down arrows" spot (you have to pull blocks to access) for another generator (stern) and three rooms (port side) to be used for whatever (for us, currently reforged stuff)
*Sentry guns on the keel side of the ship


What you may not like (just being honest):
*this version is all about having room to add to and expand upon, BUT it is not completely plug and play. i.e. you may have to remove blocks in order to place blocks...depending what your wanting.
*As with first bullet, a picture shows grow plots and light...there are no grow plots. It is meant to show they can be placed in (as an example)
*IAW "airtight", blocks were placed to seal the leaks...not always ideal locations<--feel free to try and adjust these as you see fit.
*Our first high G planet encounter, we couldn't get onto the ramp because it had been raised. So I added ramps, they kind of float there and can be PITA when maneuvering larger HV (for example a Deimos) for under side docking.<---I/we turn off signals when we do underside docking and turn signals on after....neither of us mind the the floating bars while piloting...so this feature (for lack of wording) has stayed.
*Hind sight, I forgot to take out the CPU extenders before publishing...so their cost is added to the build price...my bad<---feel free to take them out and right alt+O the ship for accurate starter cost if it is a real issue
*I do not currently plan to maintain this version of jrandall's ship...least not on the workshop as I/we are constantly making modifications
*Carapace-C7 is a superior ship (also by jrandall).
*Some of the pictures where done when WiP...finished product might look a lil different.

I had a story (short version) that in a remote sector of space the Zirax had cut of the main lanes of travel trapping the workforce from the Fighting forces. Armed with Charons and resources they (workforce) retrofitted the Charons making them into Carriers, Dropships, and even Command ships..what ever they were needing. And eventually created a Pincer movement that caused the Zirax to retreat.
