I had a idea of how 2 make an in game ship creator - sort of like galactic civilisations 2

 

the player dosnt make the ship in game - they could click on ship builder in options  and get to make 1 capital ship, 3 small frigates and 3 large frigates per race. There would still be a limit on sizes, health ect and the price could be based on what is used

the parts could be laid out at the bottom and existing ships could be used as templates

Great, but I want to build ships that don't have parts that are in-game

For example Star Trek ships

But if you want to add a better nose to the carrier it would be cool actually without having to figure out which part of the mesh code is the nose of the kol battle ship

  Wonderful idea!!!    And with the new meshes that add new mesh parts (as in Entrenchment) i cant feel but that "Something" is on the horizon, maybe "moveable" ships, you know ships with moving parts,    As well as maybe something like your "Ship Editor"    Very cool idea. Am hoping its on the way.
