Which ships will be able to hold the Dragonfly?

TL;DRWhich larger ships will carry the Dragonfly is largely undecided and not promised, though the Caterpillar's front was designed to hold at least two, subject to game design balance.

You probably mean the Dragonfly. And that is a TBD, largely. For the larger ships, we think about it, but we don't promise it. Best way to put it.

But they fit in the Caterpillar. They definitely do. In fact, the very front of the Caterpillar was designed to make sure you can hold at least two of those facing forward. Now, whether game design decides that that's one too many, that's up to them to decide for balance reasons. But it can hold up to two. And if you really want, probably three.

We've already seen videos of people cramming Merlins into every single bay of the Caterpillar. There's always our intention, and then there's what you guys will do with it.

Honestly, I was really surprised to see that with the Merlin, because for a small ship, it's a pretty long ship, and I did not expect people to get that thing in there at all.

I think everybody was surprised by that one video where they had the Merlins on the open doors and it went to quantum, and it wasn't supposed to work that way.
