Uggh sorry for the late reply I've been swamp with work all week....apparently the creature from the black laggoon works there too lol. Just to start out I want to say thanks for the opinions, they all sound very cool (which is even more reason to make this an modders resource lol) Ok now to answer some stuff:

1.

Why use a transport/alien ship at all? Perhaps a transmat beam would be easier for the transport to/back from station.. just my 2 cents.

Well there were a few reason as to why I decided the ship, mostly because a docking bay section would be pretty nifty lol and you would realize more that you're in space. There's also the bonus of having a remodeled ship that people could possible use for something else like using the script from the vetribirds and have little alien people walk out them and such. Though I do like the idea of a transmat beam too.

2.

How would you make the space station actually feel like a space station? I just hope it (if it's ever made) doesn't just look like the inside of a vault, with no way to actually tell you are in space besides npcs and logs telling you that you are. You know what I mean?

Well I had a few ideas on how to do that...well to start obviously the blackness of space would help so there has to be some windows lol. I also wondered if it was possible to make water transparent so that way you could fill an empty space outside the window with it and have a body float 'gently through space'. Also figured you would have to make some nice tubes of astro-food or a space suit lying here or there.

*yawn* If it's ok Ill reply more later today, I need sleep lol. Sorry for the quick ending I'm just nodding off sitting here.

That's really a great idea i was thinking of something like aliens or deadspace too cause underground vaults are becoming boring already...

Hey! Ya know that this reminds me of what Black Isle's Fallout 3 was going to have I read it onsome website that listed all the original plans, one of them being a space station. It was meant to be an orbital bombing station, like BOMB or something.

Now that Mother Zeta is out this mod idea can work so am just bump it to the top

Yes I do believe with the new stuff from MSZ we should be able to make something like this, I'm not 100% sure as I have not looked to see if the appropriate Statics are there and if they can be manipulated.

I'll look into this tomorrow.

Would fit it well, i like this idea. It being a Vault-tec Space station, etc.

[Davidheat]

I think we can all agree that we went it as a Player Home? with a few thing like are own Cryo-lab, Weapon room, Bedroom for us and for Followers, Any other ideas? And sorry to Ultimaexo for tacking over you idea

I have been looking into this, however I have found that making the ring is very difficult, not only will it NOT be able to spin, but I am having difficulty actually alligning it with other parts of the ring.

I'm not gonna do the ring and focus on the station itself now.

I'll get back to you tomorrow.

[Davidheat]

dont worry about the ring at all we dont need it, But i would like to see a big window looking down at earth
