Re: Placement of Turret

The airship base frame is a hexagon whose smallest diameter is 70.59". [1, pg. 6]

The Airship base divider is 120º away from the airship's base frame, and is 24" long. [1, pg. 66]

The end of the airship divider appears to terminate at the baseline, whose location is defined as 93.25 inches away from the alliance wall diamond plate.[2, pg. 2]

some trig later, the airship center point is 12' 5" from the alliance wall diamond plate, and 13' 6" from the side railing

I couldn't find exact measurements for the placement of the Launchpad line, which would make all the above computations unnecessary (which would be preferred). If someone finds a measurement for that, that'd be pretty sweet.
