[Thecard]

i know that. but say we design a mod for one.

We what?

[Aseaheru]

we make a modification for something we have already made. or we make an add-on for one.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

So, any kind of consensus?

[Aseaheru]

i think the drone has a yes. as for the others... its just the designer of it.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Why worry about that now?
Make like a major software developer and patch on bugfixes later.
Or, make like a good software developer and make sure it works well for its intended purposes before release.

[racnor]

I know EM voted for the VAT, as did I.
I also like the Hiram for after we finish the other projects.

[Thecard]

Yeah, we should make prototypes of all of them.
Well, suggest making prototypes of all of them.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Agreed.

Could someone list all the ideas that have been suggested?

[racnor]

oculus sensor drone (with and without tight beam)
Valhalla atmospheric transport
Mirror drone
Solar sail cargo ship
Hiram railgun drone
Lux laser ship

I think that's everything.

Prototypes might take up too many resources, but we could do computer sims.

Suggestion: Record general ideas of all those, then send to our bosses and ask which sounds most useful to them. Ask why, nicely. They know the situation better than we do.

Or do some preliminary design on all of them(using, say, 1 month), and presenting them to the bosses for direction. Anyway they need to bring up with some kind of navy doctrine for us to decide what kind of ships are useful.

I prefer this one.

One month total, or one month each?
With half a dozen ship/drone ideas, giving each 14 man/days would require 84 man/days divided up among 4 people, to 21 days per person. Give each design to a two-person team and have them each work on a basic design for a week, and we'll be through in three weeks and ready to ask what we should make.

Thanks.

Total, of course. We can also have a better understanding of our capabilities in drafting such designs.

Sounds like a plan.
