Carbonemys-SSE [RE2]
Carbonemys Self-Sufficient Explorer
Core 1, Level 12, Complexity 4, Reforged Eden 2 (beta)
Intentions: Exploration, Self-Sufficiency, Survival, Upgrading/Customizing
The Carbonemys is your reasonably priced, self-sufficient explorer. It provides all you need while still be affordable.
This ship is specifically designed for a playthrough where you pack your bags as early as possible and want to travel the galaxy with your ship.
Therefore, the Carbonemy is ready made to this purpose – spawn it in and fly away, you have everything you need already built in. Upgrade it on the go to meet your increasing demands.
The hangar and the landing pad on the roof provide you with space for your various spacecrafts.
The Carbonemys provides you with a floodlight and a floor light setting to light up the space around your ship to create a well lit working space. For easy access to POIs, the bridge provides you with two entrances port and starboard.
This ship comes with a cargo capacity of 976 kL while offering a complete medical bay and space for 18 hydroponic units. 4 sentrys and a gatling turret should fend off the inevitable drones. Since exotic materials and ores are sometimes hard to come by, depending your starting location, the Carbonemys spawns in without any shield. There are 45’000 CPU left within Core 1, so you can install a shield without additional work immediatly, should you be able to do so.
Please note: There are an additional 4 fuel tanks and 2 oxygen tanks "hidden" within the thruster sections to not to waste space, so don’t be confused with the numbers and the tanks you actually see in the hangar section. You might want to free up some space there for other purposes, so rest assured that there is more fuel storage around.
Upgrading
Thrusters – There are many dedicated spots to add some more medium thrusters. They are located behind the walkway elements.
The rear and front thrusters, four per installment, can be replaced with an advanced thruster since there is space reserved. Later on, you may want to upgrade to plasma thrusters.
Defence – The designated area for the shield allows up to an advanced shield generator. In addition, there are four spots reserved for basic shield boosters. You can install five more turrets up to the max of six, and can install six cannons, marked with the engineering symbol behind the walkway elements. There is a 256 kL ammo bay.
Workshop – There is space to install an universal constructor next to the small constructor which comes in the stock version.
CPU – The ship is designed for upgrading up to around core 6. However, the CPU section can house CPU extensions up to core 8 to provide you with some extra points.
Energy – There is space in the hangar section for four more generators. The tube/cable installations outside port and starboard, between the thruster areas, are placeholders for up to four standard plasma turbines. This should bring your parked vessel into the comfortable negative.
Various – There are three spots reserved for RCS units. Spots for the repair console and the teleporter are marked. The ships spacious interiour has room for many more devices and, more importantly, your personal taste. On the bridge, there are dedicated spots to install the science station and the scanner station as well as the upgrade terminal. Please remove the LCDs before placing the stations.
