Question about worldships
Hello all, this is my first post so I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section. I know only certain mods use worldships, but when using one of those mods, how do I build a worldship? I'm using Devnull mod. Any help would be great.

Re: Question about worldships
Research a whole lot. Then you design the ship, then start building it for a while. Don't know how to research, however, it may have something to do with the ability to build sphereworlds.

Re: Question about worldships
Common tech requirements include maxxed out ship construction, base construction and some stellar manipulation.
Once you have the tech, you would design the worldship just like a ship or base, and build it in a similar manner.
However, due to the extreme scale, it will be harder to find a reasonable build location.
Using a homeworld or other giant planet with huge construction rate is a basic requirement for finishing such a ship before the game ends.
Also useful, is to design with just the bare minimum number of components. Build that, and then retrofit more components on to save time at the expense of MUCH more resource cost.

I went ahead and did all of that but I still can not make a worldship. |

Re: Question about worldships
Well in the case of my moded devnull I don't have "worldships" but I do have battlemoons that weigh in at 25 MEGAtons and they only take 3.2 years at one of my orbital shipyards.
I didn't even know devnull had Worldships of it's own though  how big are they?

Indeed Narf is fearsome when roused. Luckily no-one has seen him roused, yet...
