R0-Q Rorqual Heavy Freighter

Description

The Rorqual is the heavy freighter cargo career captains dream about to have command on. It is a reliable option for long hauls with its spacious cargo bay with its 4 separate cargo compartments. The R0-Q Freighter have the convenience of a med bay, crew quarters, private captain quarters. It also comes issued with two engines (one for high energy efficiency but low engine output and another that swallows energy but offers much better power.) with a good usage if the engines a captain can get really far on very little fuel or get fairly fast but at a cost. The Rorqual comes with a power distribution control panel that allows experienced engineers divert power where it needs to go, combine the right amount of batteries recharge rates and the right mode and you can make this beast purr like a catfish. While the Rorqual lack armaments it does come with EDC as well as a decoy launcher which could of course be used for offence.

Authors Notes

This submarine is primarily designed for single/multiplayer campaign gameplay. I left many things simple in terms of logic circuitry to allow players themselves to come up with their own solutions and provided them with a room in the aft they can install the logical components at. I been using many "redundant" text panels with text on them instead of labels to allow players to wire them up to show data. The submarine have many item hideouts as well as remote compartments allowing for fun and challenging traitor gameplay while still making efforts in preventing greifers to ruin your rounds. I have attempted to make the engineer gameplay more interesting with the power distribution panel in the reactor room, which I been testing extensively to make sure that the system is balanced well. As with many of my submarines this one can be upgraded during campaign gameplay to preform a lot better than what it does in its "default" state. The Rorqual is intended to be the next step after owning the ZU-B "Zubmarine" Freighter.
