Docking Etiquette?
- Thread starter Stealthie
- Start date
Sometimes i forget to take care, i've hit once a cmdr in a Type-6 to 4% hull because he was going the wrong path inside the station. Clearly his own fault, I have said him sorry anyways.....[blah]
But no sorry if i fly in a Cutter and some other stupid cmdrs think they can squeeze their silent running ASP together with me through the mailslot. Have squished them always at 95m/s and after this i had a laugh
It really depends on my mood but i take at least always the right path. Always speeding and boosting except in the big 3. Have lost 2 rebuys even that it wasn't my fault and i decided that 1100 tons are enough to squeeze any other people also with lesser than 100m/s xD

They really should disable the landing guide when you're launching.
Docking computer, btw...Tried it yesterday...
It needs the following adjustments;
Pips to engines at all times
Boost on CD at all times
Gear down an inch from the pad no sooner
Middle of the mailbox (not the side)

AND the queue should be removed. Looks like fun when 5 Belugas - 2 T-9 and some CMDR's try to get in and out at the same time lol
Teamwork [up] Check us out, bug fixing.
AND you created a cutter paintjob in the other thread.
If they dont hire us, their loss [up]

Depends on the salary......i'm not cheap
Sometimes it is really difficult in life not to make the obvious comment when presented to you on a plate:x
Be civil Commanders o7
Actually in this case you`re right. There are times when one needs to use commonsense and understand that maybe a guy can`t see what`s going on behind him and the guy who SEES him has to compensate for that guy.
I`ve actually seen this in other games- There`s a group of people (usually kids) who don`t understand that the other guy can`t possibly know or see a certain situation and then go crazy when the guy cuts them off or gets in the way.
I am VERY aware of my SA in most games, always watching out, but every now and then I`ll get some kid who gives me no time to see or avoid or even to say, "Sorry!" before he goes berserk and shoots me in the face!

I do try
Does anyone know if the new camera allows you to take off while it's active?? Would be much easier to check behind as you slowly take off and then flick back to cockpit view
I don't think you'd be able to push the 'launch' button (b/c it's a station interface, outside the ship).
As soon as you're released you could switch over though (before you thrust upwards very much at all)

From what I saw, you have full flying ability while using it.
This was my thinking, although I think winter walker maybe right
1st: I have an issue when I am run into, inside the station. It does not matter if a am moving, stationary or come to a stop, when I see them coming. The station response is always the same; I get told to watch my flying and this I have a major issue with. I am not sure why this is the case; but it seems that I, the human player, has to move aside for ALL other NPC ships, large or small. This needs fixing, fair enough, if I run into something, slap my wrist in whatever way the game sees fit, but if I am run into, slap the other guy.
At the same time: There is no need to run into other ships. That round thing in the centre of the lower half of the HUD is a radar and shows us where every other ship is.
I raise off of the pad. Raise the landing gear, place myself at the right hight and on the green side and when I can see it is clear and no other ships are heading towards my flight path, I boost out of the station. The only issue I ever have, is human players that don't understand how to use the green side, in or out.

It's all fun and games until a Beluga pins your Cutter in the airlock and tries to make babies with it.
Enforcement of proper docking etiquette would be nice in high security system, actually make it a crime to fly like a give me another credit sink
Also i think its kind of silly we dont have rearview monitor
