    ...Building API The building of a ship is initiated by the need to transport goods, people, or firepower. The particular need dictates the dimensions, layout of the cargo area, engine power, and other basic attributes for the ship. The design for the ship then meshes these requirements with strength and safety regulations. Because most transport needs are unique, many ship designs are built only once or only in a small series. The Tribon software suite covers the ship building process from the firs...
