To be fair, while this is very interesting, the point of UA:D is being able to easily design ships without going miles into the smaller details. While it does have a lot of limitations, it allows for much faster creation, whereas this here is much more in-depth but require more time investment.

@rinjaniii326

TL;DR: Theres a diffrence between a pointless time waster, and an enjoyable time sink. A *slight* time investment, of which, rewards you with the possibilities of making whatever you want. Lets see anyone else playing UAD say that. Already, this is a much, much more friendly creator simply because of that "smart block". UAD, youre stuck with whatever/whomevers "artificial" limitations on what is and what isnt, resulting in a niche that only very few would be able to enjoy, neglecting the masses/more general audience In UAD, you see one class of ship, youve seen it all. I *wish* i can sink more time in UAD, but in what feels like less than 12 hours of playtime _after_ i bought it, ive already reached its (botched) limits. *And that was years ago* Even now after numerous updates, its still (relatively) the same thing, as how the game was in its earliest build. Avorion, for one example, doesnt suffer from this. I mean, whens the last time you see people making a ship that looked like someone elses? Besides, if that is what youre up to, you can always download someone elses ship, and tweak it to your liking should you want to. Thats the beauty of it. I mean, hey. If were talking complexity, at least its nowehere near FtD levels. Ill take this anytime of the week

You should try the aircraft wave mechanic. Pick a ship with some AA, load it up in the designer, go into the test mode. From there you should see an island a bit to your front right. An enemy seaplane spawns there, let your AA shoot it down. Once that is done (there is an airfield to the far right) aircraft waves will start spawning to come and attack you.

This looks like the mix of UAD & WOWS that I've been waiting for, thanks for bringing it to my attention

I've been thinking of getting this game for a while now, after watching this video i think im going to get it.

This reminds me of an old game I used to play as a kiddo, think it was called BattleshipCraft. You'd design the ship each and every block or use a prefab and design it from there. I'd spend hours playing it and it really got me interested in the naval genre.

If you really like that idea, there is a game called simpleplanes that has the same mechanic, it also has a workshop (idk if there is also the steam one) where the name simple “planes” pretty much goes to fck it self and becomes simple “whateverthehellcameacrossthisguymind”

Tried making a sort of gearing class meets atlanta class "destroyer leader". It's a bit difficult to actually make a good hull.

"they were never really designed to square off against each other" Actually, the Yamato was specifically built to be able to hit a target with its guns before the target's guns can hit it. But Bismarck really isn't built for facing off against battleships, it just has sufficient armament and armor to do so, but its primary purpose is commerce raiding.

@@Stealth17Gaming My apologies, I mixed you up with another channel.

I have been playing this game a few years now (I got it for about 5€), and I can say if combat is what you want, this Game isn‘t that great... at least for now. I think that has to do with the way the damage system works. It also is a very annoying to build a ship with a good armor sheme, that looks good. If you want to have 410mm of belt armor, you have the Option of either making the entire hull block 410mm, wich makes it very heavy, or sandwiching a light (5-32mm) hull block between two very slim armor blocks. That makes your ship lighter and makes it possible to have actuall armor... but making those blocks for more advanced hull designs, where blocks a slanted in more then one direction, is just not possible. I think a different way to set armor values to blocks would fix it. I would still recomend to get the game, because it has just tones and tones of potential. Sorry for any misspelled words, I am german and my autocorrect hates the english language and I am 16, so keep that in mind.

you can really make some ridiculous design meme ships in this like a battlecruiser hood design but with a hangar space for helicopters and 2 turrets in the front

Multiplayer fleet battles would be dope in this game

a looooong time ago I played a game called Fighting Steel, a surface warship game with no subs and aircraft carriers. just guns and guns and bigger guns! and I always wished that there was a program that would let you design your own ship, train your crew, and fight others online with it. this looks closer to that dream than UAD!

The elevator is the Shell hoist. It brings ammo up to the turrets

This reminds me of the old BattleshipCraft game on mobile except much more in depth, especially with the block customization.

Very nice just bought mine today and started my first ship - HMS Incomparable - so far still on the lower hull section - used 51 pieces for 90m x 358.5 meters and nearly 19k ton - lower hull section is armoured to 16mm amde of 18 sections 30m x 45 meters then the next section is full width by 4.5m - 33 sections with 5mm armour as this will be internal There are lots of possibilities with this once one has got ones head around the design process

Kind of WOWs. Liked this game very much, pretty interesting

I dont know if someone already wrote, but an elevator elevates the ammo and the charges from their safe storage place, at the bottom of the ship, to the guns. If it is broken, the shells have to be transported manually and the guns have thus a lot lower fire rate

Awesome! Can you feature this game more, i.e. design and designs, different battles, etc.?

I like it as a sandbox modeller where I can build a ship I like. However I feel ultimate admiral has a more realistic engine behind it with the level of statistics it plays with and factors it takes into the build. Also the damage model and gunnery is way more realistic. This reminds me more of world of warships. Still though, the fact that this is a solo project from 1 guy is astounding. I think I may get it, if for no other reason then to 3D model my ship design for drachinifels next ship design challenge.
