[member="John Shepherd"], welcome to the factory. Before we continue, I should mention that ships that already exist in the Star Wars universe (such as those that you can find on Wookieepedia), generally do not need to go through the factory approval process. But if you would like to make a new version or a customized version of one for your character, we do encourage that.

So with that said, do you want to continue with this submission? If so, is this a customized version of the existing canon type or a newer version of it?

Thank you for the help, after your comment I made some modifications from the original giving it enchantments and upgrades from the original and making it a newer version.

Cool, let's get to work then.

Manufacturer: Corellian Engineering Corperation

Corellian Engineering Corporation is owned by [member="Ayden Cater"]. I would recommend talking to him if you are set on using that company to build this. Alternatively, you could also make your own company to build this, or use Haven Shipyards as outlined in this post.

Material: N/A

This is typically where we list specific metals or other materials that make up a ship. If you want to keep it pretty vanilla, I would recommend using a "durasteel hull" and simply listing "various starship components" after that. Alternatively, you may pick out some metals or alloys from Wookieepedia that strikes your fancy.

Armament: (8) 4 Soniver Arms HSG-67 Laser cannons Special Features: Missile batteries

Missile batteries should go underneath the armament section. Ideally, we would like to know the type of missiles this is using as well. If there are any certain effects that you are looking to get, please let me know. Otherwise, the most common missile that we see with most ships like this are concussion missiles.

Special Features: Stealth Technology

What kind of stealth technology are we talking about? Is this something that would help hide the ship from people seeing it? Or are we talking about the smuggling compartments within the ship itself?

Most technologies which hide the ship itself from detection require a development thread to use on a ship. A development thread is a thread that focuses in some way on the submission's use or creation. This thread should take place in an open roleplaying forum and should be at least 10 posts long. You can read more about development threads here.

Description: Due to the way it was build the XS-03 Light Freighter can be manned by only one person, also it's special design makes it so there are hidden compartments perfect for the use of smugglers.

I would add on to this; most descriptions are at least several sentences long. Some things you may want to talk about include the design's features, history, maybe its internal layout, and/or how you think it will be used.

I fixed the issues, Thanks for the feedback and sorry you have to deal with a new comer like me.

 

[Gir Quee]

[member="John Shepherd"], no worries. It's one of the reasons I'm here.

Based on the description, I take it that this is supposed to be a personal ship for your character?

 

[John Shepherd]

[member="Gir Quee"]
Yes it is sorry on the late response, I didn't get the notification and just happened to check it.

 

[Gir Quee]

No worries, that sometimes happens to me as well. One thing that seems to help is to click the "Follow this topic" on the upper right hand of the page.

Production: Mass-Produced.

Since it's just for your use, I would change production to "unique", and then I'd give it a name (ex. The Millenium Falcon, The Little Bantha Who Could, etc) right behind the "Model" field.

Who Can Use This: Anyone

Since it's your personal ship, I would probably change this to your character's name or other people or groups that you regularly write with.

Phew there we go.

Model: XS-03 Light Freighter

Just to avoid any potential confusion if someone searches for XS light freighter in the future, please make the model field this: "XS-03 Light Freighter Katana".

Who Can Use This: Personal

From the Starship template:

Who Can Use This: (Optional. If you chose Limited, Semi-Unique, or Unique in Productivity above please list what groups/characters can use this submission in role-plays.)

I'd probably recommend "John Shepherd" for this.
