Newcomer / Intro Direct vs Overshoot

[JoeDavidson456]

Mail slot alignment skills, and the ability to land quickly, are important if you are wanted, or smuggling.

Also when landing without auto-dock (for eg in a shield-less T9) or at a damaged station.

Hi -- true what you say about being in the blue, and --- sounds like you haven't tried the SC Assist method I'm pointing at -- if you do it right, you get an emergency drop, speeding like a bat out of h*ll towards the station, USS, or what have you. It's really cool and very very fast! Almost as fast as navlock on a wing mate.

Hahah, yeah, I've never tried the DC or SC Assist. I like to fly my ships.
That sounds like a fun experience, though.

...but then you get Threads like "my docking computer killed me three times in a row, halp" so... yeah, no.
