I just picked up the game last week. After exploring in creative, playing with other users ship creations, and learning game basics I decided to try and build a ship from an image I found on imgur.
I've watched videos on the basics of building and I've experimented with small scale ships.
How do I go about planning out the ships system requirements or the amount of blocks they would need? How should I start building on a ship of this scale?
Any advice would be appreciated.
