As you all should know by now, workshop support is finally here, meaning sharing and testing of designs is now super easy! I want to put together a video compilation of all the cool creations the community has been inventing and fine-tuning the past 6 months, so let me know what you got! I'm looking for sexy ships, sexy tech designs, outrageous designs, best-in-its-class, etc. Please send your designs to: avatar6@gmail.com with the following information:
-Name of Design: (so I can find it on the workshop)
-Designer name or alias: (to credit you)
-Design claim to fame or purpose (if desired):
-Any specific camera angles or demonstrated abilities you want seen in the clip.
No hard cutoff yet for submissions; I don't even have my capture rig, so I won't even start putting everything together until August. I look forward to seeing your designs and hopefully my capture quality will be better than my previous work!

This might seem like a dumb question, but can't you go to the workshop and pick out your favorites? Isn't that kind of the point of the workshop?

Absolutely, but I want people who are proud of their designs to put forth their best work and showcase it a little, rather than me just pilfering through the workshop and throwing things together that I like. Plus, many designs in the workshop lack descriptions or easily perceived motivations and I don't want to miss out on something cool.

It may well be hard to find good stuff in the piles of junk likely to start showing up in Steam workshop. It's also the case that my response to "SteamUser23453434" posting a bunch of gigawatt reactors will likely be, "meh", if I notice at all. If somebody tells me that SteamUser23453434 is actually apophys that becomes "I WOULD LIKE TO SUBSCRIBE TO YOUR GIGAWATT REACTOR OF THE MONTH CLUB, PLZ DELIVER DIRECTLY TO SHIPYARD THX".

Once I update my stuff, I'll create a new well-organized thread for everything in Gameplay Discussion (which I'll then keep updated through future edits and patches). It will take time though, and I'm a bit busy recently, so don't expect it this week. (A version on the workshop may come eventually, but don't count on it. It's easier for me to organize things on the forum.)

63 ships into Vesta overkill. 9 flottillas of 7. If they didn't die (or more like if their guns didn't die) like Screaming Chinamen in Red Dawn to the Lasers on the Cutter they might even have managed to do some damage! (59 ships in Main Belt Extraction neutralized the gunships to only 12 ships total loss. And a bit more than half unscathed! Quantity does indeed have a quality all to itself!) My current baseline lasership: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=952745528

I was posting my redesigned stock ships, however I stopped myself for now. They have not aged that well with the update, where I could expect a 3 to 1 kill ratio against their stock counterparts now its around 2 to 1 and only some of them point their noses at the enemy most of the time. I may have to revisit them properly before posting them on steam.

I'm also in need of test dummies/targets for the demonstration portions. I know people have mentioned theirs in the past; anyone interested in submitting theirs to the workshop and the exhibition for use? Credit will be given.

well considering that on my workshop items these comments show up, and I don't even know how to add virus to uploads, I have a feeling that this is just a bunch of idiots
