Looks like a rocket resprite?

A lot less original rocket and more jazz hands would make this downloadable.

What are jazz hands? Anyway, i made it from unused rocket sprites and the engine of the normal rocket, the files were 'Base.rte/actors/*' and 'Base.rte/actors/dummies/rocketbodya.bmp'. i will try to make it look less like a resprite. * = RocketAHullB.bmp RocketEngine.bmp and RocketAHullB.bmp

And make it useful somehow. A resprited rocket isn't any more interesting to use than the original. Make it act differently or stronger but more expensive or something like that.

I have to agree, it doesn't mean much as just a resprited rocket. It's not that I dislike it per se, I just don't like it. I feel rather apathetic about it. That being said, it's not bad. It's just not grabbing my attention. But the technical skills look alright, so you might just need to figure out what you can do that WILL get people's attention.

PS: Clone resprites are not a good idea either, so don't try that. People like new things. The only things that can just be resprites are bunker modules, because that's all they are, sprites.

Is the C short for Coalition Rocket? But I agree, looks like a resprite... and it's not too pretty either.

Yes it is short for Coalition.

All you people who don't like it, How should i make it better? i mean, all rockets do is deliver things, how do you improve on that?

and ProjektOdin are you ProjektThor in disguise? just wondering.

By making more than a literally halfway attempt at making a new rocket.

what do you mean halfway? sprite-wise or coding-wise?
