100/100, hope you like it.

A compact combat corvette derived from my earlier build, #17 Crimson Predator.

The goal was simple: create a much smaller and more agile fighter while preserving the full functionality of a larger capital-style ship. #41 is only slightly longer than #17 due to the extended tail section, but internally it remains a highly efficient micro-corvette.

Despite its compact size, it includes:

Teleporter

Galactic Trade Terminal

Refiner

Nutrient Processor

Mission Radar

Health Station

Hazard Protection Station

Save Point

1st and 3rd person flight viewing options

8 cargo containers

The interior is built around a single small hub, which made space management extremely challenging. Every module had to justify its place, with no room for unnecessary decorations. The result is a dense but fully functional command center.

I originally described the interior as “basic,” but the feedback from the community suggests otherwise. It turns out that even in a very small footprint, it is possible to create something practical, immersive, and visually striking.

#41 Aureus Predator is a compact hunter — small enough to feel nimble, yet equipped to serve as a complete mobile base.

What do you think of this micro-corvette design?

I call it "Nostromo" based off how the inside looks like the ships from the "Alien" movies.
