Procedurally Generated Spaceship
A procedural spaceship generator built with Maya's Python API. Each time the script is executed, it creates a unique spaceship by randomly assembling and transforming geometric primitives such as fuselages, wings, engines, and cockpits. The script uses randomization to vary the size, shape, and arrangement of components, resulting in a wide range of spaceship designs. This project enables rapid prototyping of different spaceship models, making it ideal for generating assets for games or visualizations that require variety.
