Namely, Fungoid ships and stations will occasionally fart out big green clouds, and the bright green surveying beam pretty much made it impossible for me personally to use this shipset for anything other than a bright green empire. Again, not immediately visible because of the empire color choice in this picture, but Fungoid ships will always have green accents and effects. The same issue is present in several ship (particularly lithoids) and while it is quite extreme here, the ships themselves are really nice.įungoid. They'd need to have a liquid-filled room which the crew could go to during high-G manoeuvres, but you wouldn't necessarily need to fill the whole spaceship with liquid.

It would save a lot of weight, for example. Unless they were air breathers like dolphins, they'd need some kind of breathing device to pass water over their gills (or whatever they used to breathe) and possibly some sprinklers or humidifiers to keep their skins moist, but there would also be a lot of advantages even for an aquatic species to using gas as an atmospheric medium instead of liquid. Short of deep sea creatures with pressure issues, aquatic astronauts would probably be fine moving around weightlessly in a gas medium just like human astronauts do, provided they had some kind of appendages to pull themselves around. Heck, it could be air, or some other gas. Given that it's a high tech species, there's no reason why it has to be water.
