The Corvette is the smallest combat naval ship class. Cheap and nimble, the Corvette can easily evade attacks from larger ships in the hands of a skilled sailor, all while firing its 4-inch naval guns and torpedoes. However, its lack of armor and small size means it cannot withstand much fire.
¶ Controls
Corvettes will always cruise in the direction of their "front". If you try to cruise sideways, your Corvette will move diagonally in that direction instead.
The "front" of the Corvette is determined in two ways.
- If your craft has a Cruise sign, the "front" is opposite to the direction that the sign is facing.
- If your craft has no or multiple Cruise signs, the "front" is the direction you are looking at when piloting the craft.
Corvettes use the Naval Direct Control mode. Direct Control mode is superior to manual movement during combat.
¶ Specifications
¶ General specifications
- Cruising Speed: 17 m/s

¶ Block requirements and limitations
You can also calculate these block requirements and limitations in-game by using /craftcalc Corvette (block size).
- No more than 35% of the craft's blocks must be at or below the waterline
- Minimum block size of 500
- Maximum block size of 2,000

- Terracotta and Reinforced Wood are the primary armor blocks. They have a higher blast resistance than normal when piloting the craft.
- No more than 5% of blocks may be (any colour of) Glazed Terracotta
- Glazed Terracotta is the secondary armor block. It is weaker than normal Terracotta, but does not merge with turrets.

¶ Piloting
To pilot a Corvette, you may use the command /pilot Corvette while standing on an eligible Corvette. Alternatively, you may right click a sign on the craft that has Corvette written on the first line.
Piloting a Corvette increases your render distance to 10 chunks maximum, until you release the craft.
¶ Fuel
This craft is fueled by Coal, Charcoal, Blocks of Coal, and Blocks of Charcoal placed inside an on-board Furnace.
