Kuat Drive Yards news

The design on the Kuat Drive Yards is done.

This is the picture that is regarded canon:

This is the wookiepedia link:

The idea was to make the ship yards just as in canon, in a ring around the planet.

I made drive yard modules of 2km by 1km filled with buildings, factories and greeneries, and on top coupled the ship yards.

In the ring there are stations:

1.Kuat Drive Yards Main Space Port
2.KDY Andrim Shipyards
3.KDY Deponn Shipyards
4.KDY Maw Shipyards
5.KDY Military Space Station
6.KDY Offices
7.KDY Residential Space Station
8.KDY Security Forces Hq
9.KDY Supply Space Station

I made the planet green just like in the picture. Put two moons there; Bador and Ronay. Put space stations around it: ORD Kuat, Eternal Love and Toryaz.
The Toryaz station has 6 spokes with round and square pods.

Here are some images of what it is becoming:

In front of the ring is the Kuat Drive Yards main space port, at the left the Military Space Station (Imperial Star Destroyers) and at the right the Deponn Shipyards (MonCalamari Cruisers).

For doing the Type-2 Orbital dock yard that belongs to Kuat Drive Yard, I ever only saw two pictures:

This is how I solved it.

Deponn Shipyards (MC cruisers) and at the KDY main space port (civil freighters) have Type-2 Orbital dockyards as well.

My fellow developers have all downloaded the system from the code repository and reported having flown like crazy over the ring, through the buildings and the shipyards. The speed of a fighter in Freeworlds 2.0 is 5000 so yes, it is a bit like Luke's flight over the Deathstar.

This design worked out pretty well...
