Sower v1.1.0

Free Starter Ship T1 Generators T1 Thrusters ISAN

The Sower is a starter ship designed to only require safe zone ore to build. It is quite fast and cheap, and with 36 crates, it makes a decent ship to use to help with the grind towards a more advanced ship.

Features

  • 36 ore crates
  • Standard Cruise function
  • Turtle and Sloth functions with adjustable rates
  • Transponder system with ping function
  • One resource bridge
  • Auto generator rate script with adjustable minimum rate
  • Six T1 generators with two T1 fuel chambers and four spare rods on racks
  • Radiators and heat sink that provide more than adequate cooling
  • 12 small tanks with 12,000,000 units of propellant
  • 20 batteries
  • 32 T1 triangle thrusters providing forward thrust
  • 16 T1 maneuver thrusters providing braking thrust
  • 32 T1 maneuver thrusters
  • ISAN Mono
  • Top speed of 140 m/s empty
A premium version, the is available for purchase.

Usage

Flying the Ship

Pilot Console

The left lever on the center console controls backwards thrust (braking) and the right lever controls forward thrust.

Interface Function
ForwardThrust Current forward thrust, maximum of 10,000 units
Cruise Activates cruise control, forward thrust will not reset to zero unless turned down.
Aim Reduces the response time of key presses for pitch and yaw.
Turtle Activates turtle mode which sets forward thrust to a maximum limit of TurtleRate of full thrust.
Sloth (Right Console) Activates the low sensitvity mode of pitch and yaw by limiting thrust. Use the Sensitivity switch to set the maximum thrust rate of sloth mode.
Transponder Toggle & Ping Transponder controls, Toggle turns on and off ship transponder while Ping will activate transponder for three seconds
ISAN2 ISAN Mono system. No speed reading as that requires advanced chip which requires non safe zone ore

Managing Power

Pilot Right Console

Interface Function
Battery Shows current battery charge of the batteries, maximum of 10,000 units.
Generator Current generator rate, maximum of 100%.
HeatTransferRate Current heat transfer rate of the heat sinks, maximum of 100%.
MinEPS & Min_Gen Toggle and sets minimum generator rate. See Managing Power.
Fuel1 & Fuel2 Fuel remaining on fuel rods in individual fuel chambers, maximum of 300,000 units for each.
Shutdown Turns off fuel chambers.
Propellant Total propellant remaining in propellant tanks, maximum of 12,000,000 units.

By default the generator will only run and ramp up when the batteries need charging so there is minimum management needed. But you can set a minimum generate rate by setting the MinEPS value using the switch for the minimum rate and turning on Min_Gen.

Shutdown will turn off the fuel chambers.
