Welder by EGOTech - Modular Ship Framework for Starbase

This site houses the blueprints and manual for Welder Modular Ship Framework for the game Starbase by Frozenbyte. Designed by EGOTech.

Goal

The goal of the Welder ship framework is to have a base ship which has connection points to snap additional modules and welded together with minimal additional changes to make a working ship, all in the Starbase Ship Designer. The framework has a restricted shape so the modules are easy to use and include to make the final ship.

The provided modules are meant to be a guide and provide basic examples of how modules work. It is the hope that the community will build more modules to share.

Download

The blueprints for the ship and its modules are provided for free. Download the modules here or take a look at some prebuilt ships here.

  • Standard Cruise function
