Immersive Ship sizes for Retreat UE

Post by LordMM »

This mod changes to sizes of both civilian and military ships to make it more immersive.

Capital Ships - 0.950
Carriers - 0.950
Large Freighter - 0.950
Medium Freighter - 0.750
Small Freighter - 0.500
Cruisers - 0.750
Destroyers - 0.650
Frigates - 0.500
Escorts - 0.500

Space Port above. Feels more realistic IMO.

Large freighter in the centre with the medium freighter on the right side and the small freighter on the leftmost.

I wanted to ensure that there was a considerable size difference when comparing the escort and the Battleship.

These are basic design templates. So this might be compatible with other mods.

I have not yet changed this for the Pirates. I will get working on that later tomorrow or later when I have the time.

I did this on mine, lowered everything to 0.25 though. It's lovely to have ships that aren't the size of moons finally isn't it?

I try to do the same with my ships, but the problem is we can't zoom close enough, so it's sometime not easy to manage the ships.
