The Deep Manatee

The Deep Manatee

General information

Type: SCOUT Tier I Size: 12*5 m Cargo capacity: not at all Crew size: 1-3 people Price: 1000 mk, cannot be any cheaper.

The Deep Manatee, based on The Deep Manatee from Steel Divers, is probably one of the smallest coffin submarines you can buy from the shipyard. But underestimate not, thanks to several finely designed features, this tiny "thing" is capable of most tasks like other submarines.

Compact working bench

Worry not about inner space! The specially compacted working bench could handle all your requires from producing railgun shell that kills your enemy to manufacturing Morphine that cures your addicted crew member. But be notice about power supplying, especially when you are on full speed. You may need to adjust the power a bit to fully power up all of your machines at the same time.

Pressurized airlock

Since the ship is too small, ordinary airlock would certainly throw this ship out of steer. So we used a illegal high technology airlock instead, water will only flow in to the height of your foot, so the steering will generally be just fine.

Sentry drone

There will always be a drone. Here we are using a similar drone with the Bronze Age to assist your explore, and possibly as a supporting fire power. A more detailed guide for drone users:

• Man the periscope to take drone control (right next to the docking hatch).

• Click to undock.

• Click to move, double click to switch mode.

• Bring your drone back to the dock hatch to retrieve automatically.

For unknown reasons, the drone is uncontrollable for some users. If you find your self unable to steer the drone, please refer to this previous discussion WTH is wrong with my drone.

Auto aiming

Too busy to man the gun? We have a auto firing control to take care of all those mobs. This system will fight back at any Europa natives that comes too close to your ship and try to notice you about the contact. However, manual control of guns are still suggested, since this system have no idea of saving ammo, and it cannot aim at far-away targets. If you hear the buzzer ringing, you'd better have a look.

AI capacity

AI waypoints of this ship are finely adjusted to make sure they can do their jobs efficiently (seriously, what can be wrong with a ship of this size?). Containers are also marked with different tags so AI will put stuffs into corresponding places.

I have to admit that this ship looks like a joke, several days earlier I was wondering that if I can build a submarine which is capable for most tasks but small enough for single player to handle. Then bois in discord showed me the Deep Manatee and I decided to build such a tiny stuff, mostly for fun. I fitted it with several fancy features so it will be less boring, and I think I'm quite good at those tricks. However, I do believe that you could also find it interesting, because it is a good joke. GLHF.
