I was browsing through mods a while back when I came across Hornblower's warp ring. I loved the concept but it required manually configuring the docking port because there was nothing on the .pak file that did it. "There has to be an better way!" I thought as I spent the next 12 hours learning how to mod Space Engine and making my own version. This one includes a custom docking port part which is used in both ships, so you just put the .pak file in the mods folder and the docking port will be there.
Version 1 (front):
Version 2 (front):
Both together (back):
Docked Shuttle:
Ready to engage:
When I was creating the warp ring ship I could not decide if I liked the thin or thick warp rings better, so I included both in the pack. To justify making two of them I gave them different specifications: version 1 has better acceleration and a slower warp drive than version 2.
Without further ado, here is the download link:
