Great job with the backstory and development dialog, very interesting read -beautiful screenshots too


(I would like to know if you can decorate it like other multiplayer ships though, all the screenshots show empty rooms - never mind, TH already answered this one below, thanks!)

Just my thoughts, do with them what you will.

Ok im a bit confused so i will quote what was written.


Lando initially planned to transform the Lady Luck into an advanced luxury cruiser. However, Calrissian's near-constant involvement with the New Republic has forced him to convert the Lady Luck into a competent combat vehicle. At first glance, the fifty-meter long starship appears to be an unarmed pleasure yacht, but this placid exterior conceals five retractable laser cannons and a small ion cannon turret. A pair of powerful Chempat-6 deflector shield generators provide moderate protection from enemy fire. The Lady Luck's engines are housed in two long engine pods connected to the main hull. Although the starship's sublight and hyperdrive speeds can't match those of the Millennium Falcon, the Lady Luck can still outrace nearly any other luxury vehicle in the galaxy.



You may not be able to fight in the Sorosuub 3000, but I bet you will have a good time!


so dont both theese statements contradict each other?


so which is it a pleasure yatch with basic combat capabilities or a just a cruising vessle?

Hey TH, can we put vendors in ships? I think that would be cool for the bar when I open up my buisness.




Yes, you can put furniture and anything else you could place in a player structure on the ground.


You can only launch one multiplayer ship at a time though and you can only have "stuff" in one multiplayer ship at a time. So If you are flying around in your YT-1300 and want to land and Head out on the Yacht, you will have to empty the first vehicle of all it's items. Otherwise players would load up both ships and it would lead to a lot of dead database space.

"The ship will be invulnerable to attack"


That has to be open to exploiting...


What happens when a couple people decide to block access (or escape) from something in their big, bad, intergalactic RV?

Whoa there tiger,



Ok only one ship can hold items at a time. Well lets say I arrange everything in my Yacht a certain way. Then I take off in my YT-1300, switch all items over to that ship and arrange them in a certain way....


When I switch back to my Yacht will it remember the way I had the items placed or do I have to arrange them all over again?

The ship in the game, that you will get, is a cruising vessel with no combat capabilities. The stuff about the weapons is from Lando's Luxury Yacth.
