Refining my ship building approach. More simple base frame, more simple internal parts for fast prototyping, and after that this all will be covered by outer frame and panels. Also considering minor asymmetry.

Screenshot 1: this will be the base for a shorter vessel (one engine and one LOX tank. Engine could be made shorter as well). No LH2 tanks, no fuel cells (or they will be smaller), likely uses solar panels or RTGs. About 20 meters long.

Some progress on the ship. Here is the 3D view: p3d.in/RHm0Q
Still plenty of internal volume to fill up with smaller devices and systems.

Some frame work. Still need to stiffen mid section against twisting.

Good thing I have all I need on my phone, and will be able to do gamedev despite everything. Although not sure if I will have enough physical and mental energy.

Making a LOX pump-motor assembly. There will be two of them, just need to make the mounting fixture before duplicating. After that - cryotank assembly to hold LOX and then will be moving to a next system.

Blue - nozzle.
Red - chamber with solid propellant grain.
Yellow - struts with dampers.
Green - ship frame segment.

A bit fancier engine frame. Now need to connect dampers to it and define where the frame itself will connect to the rest of the ship's frame.

Tonight's progress - transparent nebulas re-implemented (those filaments and clouds in the upper half).

Plugging shaders back into the project. Star shaders are done, just need to re-import the "lens distortion" sprite.
This time also added non-linear perspective emulation in vertex shader. This makes things appear smaller at distance than they should be. Saves distance.

I have tried to improve the icons a bit, will use this iteration for now.

Finally something to show. Ditched most of the UI for now. I have some other ideas about it. For now just primary controls.
Can you guess what does each button mean?

Working further on UI layout. Each zone will be foldable and scalable. Also thinking to make swipeable (or switchable with buttons) screens to the left and to the right (depending on context and utility).
