Could we please get the option to remove the danube's roll bar?

Title. It's been requested for some time now. Surely it couldn't be too much trouble?

    That would be nice. Not all the Danube class runabouts had 'em, and would add some more customization.

    I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

    I support this.

    In fact, IIRC most runabouts we saw didn't have the rollbar - it was added to a few ships in scenes with multiple runabouts so the viewer could tell them apart.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    I mean, there's even danubes in game (the one landed in the defera invasion zone springs to mind) that don't have the rollbar, so the models exist in game. It's just a matter of one of the ship guys reading this forum and having the spare time to do us another icing-on-the-cake solid.

    This would be nice, make it like the optional mission pods on the Luna class.

    What is this "spare time" that you speak of? It is an elusive beast!

    I am not going to lie to you awesome people, but this would on the lowest of priorities. While the time investment to get it done is relatively light, there are many more issues on much higher priority content.

    With that said, if we ever have to modify this ship I'll remember this request.

    What happens if my runabout rolls over? It would hurt without a rollbar ;_;

    As long as we all wear helmets when piloting our runabout we will be fine!

    Also, could you maybe throw the Miranda's/ShiKahr's rollbar in as optional if/when you get around to the Runabout's?

    Haha, I figured as much on both counts, still, thanks for hearing our request!

    Something that would slightly add to the workload of this task is that the Danube's current deflector animation emanates from the rollbar, does it not? So that would have to be changed along with the model.

    That would be more difficult, but I would like it as well.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Thank you for your response. I for one understand you guys have a lot on your plate, but being able to get feedback and listening to ideas makes me for one appreciate the work you guys put into the game.

    I agree. Lantree/Saratoga/Soyez/Anton parts for the Miranda/ShiKahr!
