@DavidBraben: "Hi @elonmusk - love to talk to you about something. Please DM if you get a chance" - could we see Starman & Tesla orbiting Sol in-game?

Elon has tweeted about Elite before - when asked about adding space games into Teslas he said it'd be great to add Elite

Are they going to develop software for Tesla?

I'll get my (asbestos) coat...

His Tesla broke down?

 

[Mengy]

David would probably like to put one of Frontier's more casual games into the Tesla games list, like Planet Coaster or Jurassic Park. I doubt it's something Elite related.

The Dragon crew will now have the Blue Danube play as they dock with the IIS in tribute to Elite in tribute to 2001 a Space Odyssey in tribute to Strauss.

Either that or Braben wants to offer Musk the blueprints to a Cobra III so Musk can build one in real life.

SpaceX isn't quite up to that challenge just yet.



Probably more like 3-5 years from now for a real life working Cobra III.

It could be something like getting permission to include Starship 3D models on ED's Mars - there will be a lot of them available for preservation.

Or it could be Raspberry Pi related...

New DC confirmed. Will hit boost immediately when waiting in line behind a Prismo Shielded Cutter for docking.

[Gauntlet]

Your Tesla autopilot keeps crashing into things, do you want our code?

Only certain people from the forum will be given this fabulous... err...opportunity.
