S.S. W. H. Brian - Late 1920s Great Lakes Package Freighter [Sinkable]

Description
For my first Workshop creation, I present to you, "S.S. W. H. Brian," an attempt at replicating a late 1920s Great Lakes package freighter.

I was inspired by S.S. Kamloops, a Canadian Great Lakes canal-sized package freighter owned by Canada Steamship Lines that sank in Lake Superior off the coast if Isle Royal on 6-7 December 1927. It is named after the Kamloops' final captain, William Henry Brian.


~ To start: Head aft to the engine room; turn on the air valve for the boiler, then the exhaust valve, and light the firebox.

~ To sink, turn the key on the floor near the engine room telegraph; be mindful of eventual boiler explosion.

~ Crew capacity of 6; Captain, First Mate, 2 Deck Crew, & 2 Engineering Crew.

~ Top speed of 16.20 knots.

~ Coal capacity of 2403.

~ Two lifeboats; room for eight.


Credit must be given where credit is due:

- The overall hull and cranes are credited to FJWarner and ETrain.

- A significant portion of the interior decorations and color schemes are credited to mcsteve89.

- The chart table is credited to sapporo_potate.

If I have forgotten to credit anyone, please let me know. I also welcome any input on any modifications to be made.

@Ｎｉｑｕｉｄ - I did not even think about the feed water running out far sooner than the vessel's coal stores. To balance out the two more or less, I added 5 auxiliary freshwater feed tanks, which will be pumped into the preexisting feed tank as it is depleted.

Since the capacity of the primary feed tank appears to be 691.81 liters, and the 5 additional feed tanks are identical, the total amount of feed water for the boiler, although not shown as such on the dedicated dial, should be about 4150.86 liters.

Now, mind you this is my first Workshop creation and I am still relatively new to Stormworks, so I may have screwed something up. If so, please let me know and I will try to fix it again. I am going to update S.S. W. H. Brian within the next few minutes after I post this reply, which will hopefully remedy this issue.

After figuring out how to get a container on the deck this ship is fantastic for shipping. I took it on a very long haul and had no issues. My only question is how to add water to the boiler once it gets low? Otherwise this is easily one of my favorites now! Good job

@waxm As you are climbing, hold A or D as you get towards the top, to ensure you do not fall back down.
