Introducing the Monogon! a Half scale, militarised variant of the Infamous Dugong, and my first actual submarine. I've made as many quality of life, and added a ton of sub systems that i've learned how to make. I've made like 10 versions of this ship and this is the culmination of all that effort. Hopefully, i haven't missed any important wiring.
Features
A substantial battery backup, Battery Assisted Reactor.
Better array of weapons
Sonar Operated Artillery computer, with Periscope backup
Custom designs for loaders, engine and oxygen
Full crafting bay, Dedicated Battery Chargers
Advanced Periscope, Controls one of two guns (see notes)
A terminal to allow mutes to leave messages, and an alarm buzzer as an outgoing mail alarm.
And so much more!
*note: While there may be four guns, there are only Two gunnery stations, this was to try and keep the fire power of this ship lowered, while also forcing at least two guns to be unusable, how ever, the coverage angles and discharge coils make this feel a bit on the strong side anyway
What does Sonar Artillery Computer mean to the uninitiated? well basically, theres a helm terminal, how ever instead of steering the ship, it instead aims a cannon, You can swap between top and bottom turret, and in a pinch, or simply to let AI control a gun, switch to Periscope mode. There is also an exposed OR Component, basically you use it to set how long the gun fires for, currently its set to .4 seconds, which makes the gun fire at least two shells. but you can lower it, or lengthen it to make the gun shoot longer or shorter.
I may have hidden a treasure aboard. Good luck finding it though. How ever what you hopefully wont have trouble finding is the *enemy* variant that can spawn, with some mildly faction relevant Decoration. Idk how the enemy sub system works, i've set it to hopefully be around the T2 sub area. Watch out, Its significantly more dangerous than the player variant. (don't be beneath it :3)

This Submarine uses greebling from the R-278 Dugong, rest of the sub is scratch made, but i figured i'd source it as a required grab
EAHI and Let me Craft it are mostly pretty optional, one just gives blueprints for some items, and EA-HI gave me an exosuit storage option, but if you don't want the anime, you can definitely just skip it.
