Elite Dangerous Ship Blueprints January 2019

Elite Dangerous Ship & Vehicle Blueprints "3305 Edition"

The drawing of new ships, collation and double-checking of all data, finding all the previous translation texts, getting new translations and then putting the whole jigsaw together has swallowed January whole. For those who don't follow me on Twitter, just exporting the blueprints as bitmaps took nearly three hours - in one language. But it was worth it. This is the most complete and comprehensive collection to date with four language versions to boot.

The annotation now includes numbering on the hard-points and on utility slots. This is NOT the numbers that sometimes appear on the ships hull, but the number order from ships outfitting from top to bottom. First slot in outfitting is number 1, last is number 4 (or whatever) I hope that makes sense. See the examples below.

Alliance Crusader Cobra Mk III Beluga Liner Krait Phantom

Special thanks to CMDR Nicou, CMDR Uxío Piñeiro and CMDR Kai Pelzel who did such amazing work getting translations for me in such a short time. o7 CMDRs!

Suggestions and corrections should be submitted written in pencil on a ten pound note. :D

Corrections: I've moved the cargo hatch on the Anaconda, fixed the Cyclops description, added the missing Fer-De-lance hard-point and correctly located the Beluga's SLF bay.

Here they are! Enjoy.

Blueprint refresh incoming

One of the things about Elite: Dangerous is that it is constantly changing. And while that's great for players, for me, it presents a problem.

All the statistics and layouts of the ships keep changing. Creating definitive sets of blueprints & datasheets etc. is a constantly-moving target. With restrictions on my time (this blog is a hobby) mean I don't have the game time to rack up enough credits to buy the ships I need to draw and document (Alliance Crusader at the moment). Harder still, is getting ship launched fighters that require considerable game-time to unlock. These things make getting the statistics pretty difficult in the first place. But I am getting there!

I have in the past had various text files, spreadsheets etc. which contain data collected from many sources; much of it dating back to 2016. In pursuit of the information to complete (as much as possible) my Vehicle Codex, I am performing a complete refresh of all this data. Checking old data and obtaining new. You can see the "missing" or "unconfirmed" values on the partial screenshot below.

When I have collated and collected all the data, I intend to re-publish the full set of blueprints with the latest statistics. This will bring them up to date and match the datasheets created for the Vehicle Codex.

As you can see from the draft sample below, I will be including all hard-points and utility slots numbered in the top down order in outfitting.

I have also put in a request to Frontier to ask for definitive ship dimensions. I currently use a system of sizing that has proven to be accurate and if not "right" then it is at least consistent. Being able to say "I have it from Frontier" would help dismiss the "you got it wrong" posts.

Update: I asked Frontier for dimensions and they declined. Will Flanagan replied to my request; Hello Anthony, unfortunately we're not able to provide you with ship sizes.

XG9 Lance from screenshot to Blueprint

I haven't had the time in game to unlock more than one of the Guardian ship launched fighters. Last night CMDR Ranualf assisted me, as he HAS unlocked all of them, in getting the screenshots and statistical data I needed to complete the blueprint.

Using the screenshots, I got the ship schematic drawn and incorporated it into the new blueprint template.

Codex update

This week I have resumed work on the Vehicle Codex, doing a large number of the datasheets. I have modified my original format and unlike my blueprints, these are all to the same scale (1:2,450).

Yes; I know some don't have completed Codex pages yet (Saud Kruger). If you spot any incorrect stats, please let me know. Here are the ones I've done so far. More to come over the weekend and next week.
