NightFish Mini Sub
NightFish Miniature Submarine
Boasting incredibly small dimensions, the NightFish can be easily fitted onto your larger ships as an exploration or escape vehicle. This is my first submarine creation, so please rate if you liked it!
Big thank you to Craos5 for teaching me how subs work and providing crucial suggestions for shape/stability!
The boat in the demo video is a heavy WIP and will not be released for a while.
Operating instructions
- Propulsion: The propellers are powered by electric motors so there is no ignition. Simply use the throttle on the right to control propulsion.
- Ballast: Fill the ballast to full for neutral buoyancy (meaning you neither sink nor float and can freely maneuver in water).
- Tethering: The best way to tether the sub is to attach the rear to a large/huge winch using an electric connector, while the front connector acts as an anchor (for when docking the sub in your ship). This will keep the sub charged. (Example in image)
- Depth hold: Depth hold works best when you’re already submerged.
- Water pressure: Due to water pressure, try to keep the sub above -50m or the ballast/airlock will no longer be able to be drained.
