I have a 'maxed-out-build-budget' CAMP that I really really love. I put months and months of gradual development and love into it. I have been using a different CAMP for a few months now, and I made the HORRIBLE mistake of trying to move my OG camp when I went back to it a month ago. Since then I have not been able to place the CAMP. I always get that 'intersecting object' error message, no matter WHERE I try and place it.

Mind you, this ISN'T a Blueprint. It's just the stored CAMP. I asked Copilot what to do and it basically came back with "You're totally fucked", in as many words. So my question is, AM I totally fucked, or is there a chance I can come back from this and salvage my baby?

This is Razortron's "Star Wars Octuple Barbette Turbolaser Cannon Mod" (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=668044165%29), which has been officially discontinued (currently goofing around with some promising possible replacements), and 4 of these bad-boys have been installed on SauronLIFAD's Imperial-I Class Star Destroyer (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1195468363%29).

These are WeaponCore mods so the tubrolasers are kind of OP and have a RIDICULOUS rage of 6 KILOMETERS, but I swear they seemed to be firing at things that were far beyond that range, maybe as far as ELEVEN kilometers, LMAO. SO overpowered. Just as a Star Destroyer should be. :)

And even if they ARE overpowered, turbolasers are just cool OK? I like to have fun.

Nuclear weapons are something barely brushed on in Star Wars. I have always wondered why; it's not like they would have had any shortage of nuclear materials, and even though energy weapons are really much more potent and more practical, a nuke might essentially cost less to produce and utilize than all the energy required for turbolasers, let alone a superlaser. I'm no actual engineer here though, I play an engineer in a video game lol. So I might be way off on that.

That being said, I decided that I would simulate a rebel cell smuggling a tactical "mini-nuke" into the hangar bay of an ImpStar Deuce (rebel pilot-speak for the Imperial-I Class Star Destroyer). I did this in the game Space Engineers. It was pretty devastating, but I wanted to go further with it, so I put a full-on nuclear warhead into what remained of the hangar bay area, and THAT was VERY devastating.

I feel like the whole meme that the stormies always miss their targets by miles is inaccurate to say the least. Your average Stormtrooper was a highly trained and well equipped soldier.

Yeah, that's right, it's a 1.8\" VSFF (“very small form factor”) 250GB mechanical hard drive! How cute! Also how SLOOOOW at just 5,400 RPM! This thing needs to go! SSD upgrade time! YEEhaw!

I previously had no idea what to even call this connector but from my research, it is apparently known as \"Micro SATA\".

As you can see, at 250 GB's, it's actually kind of thick for it's size, to accommodate the extra platter

This is the laptop mainboard end of the connection. As you can see there is a missing adapter that I am currently searching for. Also please excuse the filth, this thing was in the basement for a very long time and I obviously have a dog that sheds...heavily lmao.

This one was taken out of my old Creative ZEN Vision media player, probably one of the best things I've ever owned. It's really a shame Creative got out of the portable media player business. This little guy is a whopping 30 Gigabytes and runs at a snails pace, at just 4,200 rpm

The bare naked behind of the drive, showing the connector, with a connected ribbon cable, connnecting in turn to an adapter card that allows me to hook the drive up via...something, it's been years, I don't remember

As you can see this thing is VERY thin. After all, it was sandwiched into this thing below:

Behold the Zen Vision Portable Media Player, brought to you by Creative Technology, the speakers and sound cards guys. It was fire, especially back in 2005. I took it to with me on a family trip to Italy and did not regret.
