			=== Advanced Building ===

			Using the SBEP parts for the entire ship can be limiting, several players opt to enhance their builds by using other props and shaping to form more complex interiors and exteriors. Advanced building techniques involving using the prop resizer to resize base models (cube) to specific dimensions. It is also possible to use the resizer to 'sheer', that is to change the angle (or in other words turn a cube into a rhombus). To move props around a powerful tool Precision Alignment, for which there is a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsqgTv14MGk tutorial].

			The plane tool allows to the 'cutting' of props, that is removing the mesh of a prop to change its overall shape (e.g. cutting a Stargate prop in half). Plane cutting a prop does not extend the material, which creates a one way mirror effect on cubes.

			=== Drive Cores ===

			Your ship at the moment is stationary, however adding a TSCM [[Drive Core]] will allow you to fly your ship around so long as the number of entities (props + extra) is less than or equal to 100. Drive cores can link to chairs which provide automatic control mapping, making it very easy to convert stationary ships into moving ships. The entity limit of 100 can be limiting, using the Auto Merge tool will collapse several props into one big prop which drops the total prop count down. Once complete it is important to autoparent the ship to the drive core

=== Overview ===

Building ships in TSCM is very similar to that of any other spacebuild server, which if you have not played on any other spacebuild server its very similar to sandbox.

=== Getting Started ===

There are three types of ships (stationary, drive-core, shuttles++). It is best to start with stationary ships. To start, use SBEP hallways and use the SBEP part assembler to connect hallway pieces together, right clicking with the tool will highlight connection points, this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoBMzFhBClc Tutorial] covers the basics.

Once you have a hull spawn a [[Ship_Core|ship core]] under the TSCM tab, this will unify the structure and link the health together, for advanced functions a ship core is required.

To move around spawn [[Ship_Drives| ship drive]] (found in the TSCM tool tab), as an example use a FTL drive. The ship drive will allow you to move from one space on the server to another. You could use E2, [[Stargazer]], or wire to control to the warp drive however for first time use it is recommend you use [[Kaiser]].
