Description
CURRENT VERSION: 1.193 - Economy-Update

The V.M.E modified Liftmaster is a refit variant of the LIFTMASTER Cargo Runner, created by Doctor Budgie. It has been extensivly modified to serve as an all-purpose support craft, including cargo transport, field repairs as well as salvage- and rescue-operations. The ship is also capable to be operated as a decent tugboat and provides a landing platform for personal crafts.

The modified LIFTMASTER runs on Hydrogen Thrusters only, is jump-capable and has limited planetary transfer abilities, but can be operated in any environment.

This ship is full vanilla and built for survival. It is fully conveyed and thruster-damage compatible. No Mods were used and the blueprint comes without subgrids. You can build this ship without any modifications from a projector.

Caution: This blueprint uses DLC blocks.




Authors note
After several failed attempts to create a decent tug-boat myself, I came across the Liftmaster Cargo Runner by Doctor Budgie. I instantly fell in love with the unique and practical design and decided to bring it to our survival server. In the months that followed, the ship became a cruicial part of our logistics and assisted in recovering disabled pirate vessels for salvage processing, transfering large grid vessels and structures and assembled our kitbash-Joint-ops-Spacestation.
The vessel received several modifications during this time, which resulted in this blueprint. The vessel was uploaded with consent of the original creator.

@OscarGaming, this is designed for space, not atmosphere

One problem I found is that it has too much forward propulsion and can carry away forward/ 8 forward thrusters and 4 backwards.
Also has a really bad lifting capability in atmos, so it can't hold its LG container on full without falling. It needs at least double the amount of thrusters to be able to sustain flight.

I love this ship. Been using it for a while to move large things around here and there. But I can't for the life of me figure out what the welders on the bottom are supposed to be for.

@Taehl: I set my graphic settings to max and capture screenshots 6-8K resolution. The resulting image is much more sharper and detailed, even after scaling them back down to 1080p. If you run a modern nvidea gpu, you can also apply effects to your game, similar to Ansel via the Geforce Experience Overlay.

@Taidyr: Those screenshots are fantastic! Is there a mod you use to get the game looking that good, or do you use ReShade or something? (I mean beside the 3 mods you list in the credits - my game has never looked as great as those pictures)

@BreadstickMan: I'm sorry but I'm not interested in a collaboration, since I already have multiple projects to manage. You can use this ship for your project as long as you provide a link to the original design.

Very Cool design aesthetic. I took it and turned it into an asteroid mining platform, but kept the design aesthetic and color scheme.
