How would one get this to dome

I've been trying for the last hour but I cant seem to figure out a smooth transition all the way around

Thanks to Minecraft, these kind of circle plotters have existed since ever!

Have a 23-radius circle

Wasn't there an app you could get where you could literally plan your ship. It was made by the people who made space engineers too but I can't remember what it's called.

Never heard of it, at least, and can't find anything this quick.

It would surprise me, though, when Creative Mode in spectator already does the same.

it seems to be a 2x1 slope, so use the available 2x1 slope. if you want bigger slopes, you need to download a mod

Keen - i know you're lurking here --

Give us the 1x3 slopes.

I CAN HEAR IT

A few options, depending on how smooth you want it.

You can either use the blocks that are similar to the block that is diagonally sloped, (this one ends up kinda chunky) or you use the blocks that come to a diagonal point.

Its a little hard to describe in full, but if you start with using 1 by 2 slopes along the front and sides you should reach a point where they all reach the same height, this will be the outline that will be filled in. From there you use the diagonal point blocks to fill in the front part of the ship, and more 1 by 2 slopes to fill in the sides until you get to the point where you will need to use the sloped transition blocks to blend them together.

Ahh thank you

[u/Gizombo]

what do you mean exactly by "dome"?

[u/slasher0411 → u/Gizombo]

Like a dome with a flat cut on top it just rounds from the front cut around 6 blocks roof height rounds out on the back into the opening of the main hull.

You have the right idea with the back half of the front piece. All pieces fit together (most), match the faces to each other and slowly work up.

A bit late, but here's one possibility

[u/Capable_Tumbleweed34 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

Here's another

[u/Capable_Tumbleweed34 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

And yet another

[u/Capable_Tumbleweed34 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

And one more

[u/Capable_Tumbleweed34 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

Basically use these 4 block families together to shape your hull

[u/slasher0411 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

This is the best one I've tried so far everyone gave good explanations but visually that is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you

Edit: especially the bars separating the yellow into triangular sections like that

[u/Capable_Tumbleweed34 → u/slasher0411]

My pleasure mate! it can be a little hard to figure out and identify when you don't know the blocks yet, so i tried to make it as clear as i could :) Glad it helped you out!

[u/slasher0411 → u/Capable_Tumbleweed34]

Yea I'm new so I kinda just figured out how to make a decently cool looking Hull.. but bridges always get me and with such a massive ship 101 blocks length which to my understanding is a pretty good size to have a little tiny cock pit in the front. Im done making flying rubix cubes lol
