Yes let's do it. Id like to see it as a module you buy and install akin to the docking computer. Simultaneously I'd like to see the removal of *all* auto-pilot-like functions from the base ship functionality and moved to the piloting computer module. (I.E. You can't dismiss/call your ship from the SRV unless you have a piloting/docking computer installed).

Apparently, the autopilot in your ship doesn't function when there is a human being onboard the ship. Hop into your SRV though and it will magically reappear and take your ship to orbit and then re land it again at your convenience... I don't see any dichotomy here at all!
 
Do you mean the chief designer; the guy who loves sci-fi so much he turns up in a cowboy hat rather than anything sci-fi on live streams?
Oh, no not Sandro, he's lovely ... thought you meant someone else ... nevermind :) (backs away slowly as if this never happened)
 
ASTRA of course ! :)

I want this AUTOPILOT!

We need to start a thread that forces the negative crowd into picking the most sensible choice instead of which ever choice is most negative.

Who is for getting a new peripheral that will kick you in the face each time you drop out of FSD?

1. Yes
2. No


Do you hate fun and have more disposable free time than a normal adult?

1.Yes
2. No


Who is for a new peripheral that will slowly close your airways as you ship loses cabin preasure?

1. Yes
2. No
 
If they cant be bother to be on the forum what makes you think they voted. People wont even vote for their elected officials so why do you think they will vote in a video game.

there are 800,000 steam owners alone. So unless you get just 500k of those and a good popultion of xbox and FDEV site owners voting, then you will never have a real poll. Heck most states would be lucky to get 500 thousand votes in total.


Whether they voted or not wasn't what I was proving wrong, nor was it the issue I was quoting... It was whether or not people knew about the poll. You post implied the results of the instant transfer poll were what they were because people didn't know about it. FDev emailed every single elite account holder, proving your statement about people not knowing about the poll to be false.
 
Insulting those that don;t agree with you is just an example of Mob Mentality.

The belief that a Commander should have to control his craft is not absurd. It's an opinion that doesn't support yours. You can demonize those that don;t agree with you all you like, it won;t change a thing.

If your ship is moving, you should be piloting it.

The most creative and amusing thing being a 'space loach' draped across the bored shoulders of a man who doesn't love the future? With long cuts into the programming for Braben to discuss vulcanism - yee hah! (and then everyone mis-spelling it.)
