ZTech, the builders of tomorrow's machines today
- Thread starter TheGamingEnder
- Start date
alright, I have remade our discord server, and I will try to use it often, and keep things going on it. here is our new invite link: https://discord.gg/Jz6sY8c
finally, we have gotten our banner! 1 year and a half of operations, and we are still going! To be honest, I never thought that I could keep this going a few months in, around the time I built the Z4, but we are still going strong, pushing for the next thing on our horizons! next few ZPro models will be a proper revisit to the VTOL rigs, this time I'm testing linear propulsion for vertical takeoff and also for horizontal flight assist. I might hold a name-the-new-ZPro competition soon for the honor of our banner, as the build is now top priority(as well as uploading the next gen ultrascout, more stable, and a few linear versions of some of my favorite designs), because it was going to be on the back burner, but as a goal for the kingdom and for me has been reached, I am bringing it to the front(also might make a linear racer and heli concept at some point)
updates: firstly, I'm starting work on the VTOL and the newest addition to the air fleet for the joint operations between NASF-01 and BlackWing(DarkSky being the codename), an autogyro/gyrocopter
Well, I decided to come back partly. Yes, I am going to get TerraTech running, Yes, I am going to finish up the said items, but with a twist. I really want this kingdom to actually go places, but it's just a standstill. I know we are official, but I feel like we are almost dead, with only me pulling the ends together and keeping it active. I don't want to say goodbye, or just simply vanish, but, I don't know. It's so sad, seeing your kingdom, your kingdom you rose from the dust, just be only just alive due to your efforts. I will try to keep it up, but if nobody ever joins by the time ZTech reaches 2 years of age, it might be time to say this has just downgraded to an official tech manufacturer only.
So, I wrote about the reason behind me leaving TT community for almost 4 months with no interactions, which is a profile post chain(due to the 420 character limit) So I am here to talk about the stuff ZTech will go through. since I left, stuff like NOVA and similar kingdoms/factions stopped being real. In fact, I think up to this reboot of ZTech, a Rebirth, if you please, the lemon kingdom has been the only kingdom alive. I hereby announce that ZTech will not be leaving kingdoms, but is coming back stronger! Currently, I plan on making new items, whereas leaving past items behind. Firstly, we will move slowly into the mission planning phase. My hope is that, as a mainly venture corp, Payload Studios could implement some custom challenges for kingdoms. ZTech mission concepts will vary through each division, as I will also upload the parts for them, if you want to modify and keep them. I also will do normal craft uploads, but with a big twist. We are fully going into all-corp, and possibly modded parts. I have big plans for 2021, and they start with ZTech getting a ton of much needed love.
Well, it's that time again! Today I introduce the most confused project yet, which was going to be a specialized podracer, but due to my fondness for drones, I made the world's worst drone carrier and drone.
This here is the RDU, with a Buzzer, a missile loaded 8x8 drone. The concept is good, but the design here is lacking. I promise better RDU units will come.
Then, I said on the TT Discord, I had a car that flew, although it had tons of downforce. And that my friends, it the ZT Bumblebee.
And, as a bit of a surprise, it appears I did make the Z11 'pinwheel' before my hiatus. Here it is:

last item: I made a trike and called it the ZTri, and for what it is, it's not bad. it's also the fixed bumblebee, so shhhh.
Greetings, friends or people who noticed ZTech, today I reveal a new weekly thing from my office space, revealing what I plan for releases, ideas, and more! So, welcome to From The Labs! Anyways, here's this week's news from my personal office:
First up, a vote between the elites have decided to make a flagship for space, currently labeled as project Falcon, as a atlas-class vessel, and is currently under rough design. It will use technologies we previously announced before to attempt, which some still need testing.
Second, The linear VTOL system will soon be designed, which will be a core part of Falcon, but we would need to use a proof of concept, and then make a testing spacecraft, which for now is Project Hawk, but, as R&D suggests, this tech might not be feasible.
Third, our RDU program we abandoned is returning, which will have a VTOL deployment unit, TALON, which will be made, as past tech I made prior to ZTech has showed it can be done.
Lastly, the BlackWing has taken up making a new bomber, which will be multi-powered. Stay tuned for it on it's own page, as it's going to be back under it's own terms.

So, status update for you all: I am currently on a brief hiatus, as I was doing other things, have TT sit, barely played for a while, and on the day I decided to get in, my mouse died. So, I am out of action until the 6th of may. I am planning on making new things for ZTech, BlackWing, and NOVA, but the VTOL system without thrusters will have to wait. Although, I will be active here
Hallo, how do I join this faction? I have an offering to give you. I maaaayyyy have stolen your thunder and made a non thruster VTOL system lol. The Atlas-class starship you guys are working on seems pretty cool, is there a way I can help with it?
On a more related note, here is my offering to Ztech: The Venture Tiltwing
Using multitech technology, this plane has special tiltwing technology that allows it to take off and land vertically without utilizing thrusters. It also looks really cool
Below is a video of the Tiltwing in action, and also a snapshot:

thanks
how do i change my forum username and get a status btw, ive been trying to do that for a bit now
Well, my friend, you are in! currently, I'm getting back onto my feet in general, and I'm hoping to make my sayings a reality, as recently, I have been announcing the plans on creating them, but I am going to fully put them in today.
Also, @Matt please hand @TheTryhqrdASAIN a banner from the archives of ZTech for him to show proudly?
woohooo
anyways yeah, may i help with the aesthetics and stuff of the new atlas class starship you guys are working on? i specialize in aesthetics and antigrav ships so i think i could be a pretty big help
I'll be getting to work on designing the Atlas class ship, and I will also take time to learn anti-grav for it, but if I cannot do it, either way I will be sending the the mainframe of it to you for design and possible fitting of anti-grav, if I cannot master it.
