The time has come to release the first large ship asset with a fully mapped exterior and interior for TDM: the merchantman, as first seen in Perilous Refuge as well as a decorative scale model in various other FMs:
Designed to be fully reusable, it comes as a set of modular prefabs that can be assembled in less than a minute in any map. It features 3 internal decks including a tract of cabins, a spacious multi-deck cargo hold and officers' accommodation befitting their status. Both moored and sailing variants of the rigging are available, opening up the possibility of making missions on the high seas. The internal partitioning can be rearranged by mappers using the accompanying set of modules, and example furnishing prefabs are available for each deck. Pier modules should make it easy for the ship to dock anywhere. The new deck texture is courtesy of peter_spy.
Mappers are more than welcome to use this ship (or the other, smaller fully mapped ships, the brig and the yacht), even just to try it out in their maps. That'd quite appreciated before it's eventually added to core assets.
