It is advised that if players intend to have many turrets on their ships that they design their power systems accordingly. Docked entities are completely relent on their parent entity's for power generation. When a ship has been successfully docked most of its deactivate as they become a part of the parent entity's power system.

Docking a ship to a Faction Home base will make it completely invincible and access restricted keeping it safe while you are away. Logic Signals are used to control the movement in a rail network. Ships docked to a rail network will move accordingly depending on the type of rail block used and its direction. Using the Rail system players are able to not only create static docks for their ships but also fully mobile platforms. All docking in the game requires the use of the Rail Docker and the various rail blocks. Players can also attach any number of ships on to each other creating massive chain docks. Any Ship Core driven entity has the capacity to be attached to another entity be it a Space Station, Asteroid, or even another Ship. These launchers allow Exodus to dictate the range of combat the sensor array attached to the launcher system has several hundred thousand kilometers of effective range.Docking is an essential part of StarMade's core gameplay. Combined, these weapons can produce a massive volume of fire to saturate the immediate area around an Exodus-class with plasma bolts, denying strikecraft or missiles any opportunity to damage the ship.įor long-ranged combat, Exodus possesses six vertical fusion torpedo launchers and a stock of over 1,100 "Meteor XL" fusion warheads. Exodus-class vessels also possess a formidable secondary battery of weapons, including six large PlazWorks PC/H-03 "Fury" anti-capital plasma turrets and multiple PlazWorks "Shredder" quad-barrel point-defence turrets, two of which are located on the forward end, in addition to many smaller PlazWorks "Stinger" single-barrel point-defence weapons positioned in hull notches and cutouts. The Exodus-class was designed from the ground up to be a superior warship as such, its systems needed to be extremely powerful and robust.Įxodus-class vessels are armed with two side-mounted plasma railguns on limited-traverse turrets on the sides of the ship, with four forward heavy plasma cannons, along with two long-ranged plasma beam emitters, on the forward end. The hangar bay of an Exodus-class, with closed blast door. Large portions of the white armour paneling are broken up with cutouts, with each of these cutouts housing multiple plasma PD turrets. Most of the ship's combat sensor equipment is located directly on top of the bridge.įour escape pods per side are positioned below the front corvette docks, with two more per side behind the bridge module. Located on the aft end above the central thruster is a small hangar with four Workbee maintenance craft.Ī flattened bridge module is nestled in the armour panelling on the top central portion of the ship. The forward end is dominated by weapons outputs of various types four point-defence turrets and two anti-capital turrets are also located there, along with the forward docking tube and an airlock for maintenance and EVA.īehind this forward end, the vessel's four (two on carrier variant) docks for Cobra-class corvettes are located, and behind these, the ship widens considerably to allow for the three massive Hyperflux Coil Thrusters that are necessary to propel the huge vessel forwards.

The Exodus-class is a largely boxy class of starship composed of straight edges designed for maximum internal volume, and therefore lacks the graceful curvature and tapering of older PlazWorks-manufactured Trident vessels. Measuring over seven hundred standard metres in length and having considerably more internal volume than even the mighty Independent -class of battleships, the Exodus-class is the largest class of starships in service with Trident Foundries.ĭesigned to internally carry four Cobra -class corvettes, or two Cobra-class and many Swift-class fighters, into battle and then unleash withering firepower on enemy vessels, the Exodus-class represents a significant change in Trident Star Navy tactical doctrine, previously favouring smaller vessels.Įxodus-class ships are able to remain on station for many years away from external support, thanks to impressive technological advances first tested on ships such as the Mjolnir-class and Spectre-class these include massive ramscoops to harvest interstellar hydrogen for the reactor, as well as efficient self-repair systems.
