Projection; you can't argue the subject without resorting to passive aggressive insults. And this is after a dozen posts.
And again you go on about risk instead of even trying to answer the question. This is pointless as trying to get something logical or sensible out of you is like pulling teeth as you go on about perceived risks that no one else sees. You continue to do this even though the navigation computer would have the same limitations as the player (press j, press x, press j).
You're probably the first person I've seen who'd argue that the docking computer somehow makes docking safer by spouting some nonsense about "eliminating risks".
I never insulted anyone. I have commented on the validity of an argument. If that insults you, I'm not sure what I can do about that. I have proven my case, as if to a reasonable person, that without a pilot's input, a ship jumping into a new system would indeed dive into the star. What more do I need to do? If an AP would just press the jump key, what benefit would it bring? You'd still have to avoid the star, and any other obstacles.
I have never even mentioned the Docking Computer. It's a cheeky throwback to the original games that I give ground to. An AP I don;t have to. Especially in a discussion thread about if we should have one. If FD were to offer one, I'd get along. But, in this discussion, I don;t have to. And if I can persuade FD not to offer one, all the better.

You obviously haven't tried it then. The ship automatically drops out of super cruise if you get too close. You can't plunge into the star.
Yes you'll be a bit warmer than normal but that's about it. Apart from that I have no idea what risks you're going on about.
You do plunge into the star, and you do risk Damage and/or destruction. Little semantic arguments don't remove the fact that there are risks surrounding dropping into a star. Some not at all about the primary star in the system.

Your arguments are completely irrelevant and at best non-existent. Your deluded belief that they had any logic is also non-existent. You're nonsense has caused this conversation to devolve to the point that it is now.
I don;t have to just accept your opinion, just like you don;t have to accept mine. Dismissing them, like this, will only satisfy you, not the argument.

The emergency stop does cause to 1.5% hull damage, 0 to 3% damage to integrity of modules but never ship destruction. I've been trying to get him to explain exactly what he's talking about for an hour now when he goes on about "risks", without luck.
I'm out. At this point I've written him off as a troll. Maybe you'll have more success at getting something coherent out of him.
There is a positive though; he's a perfect example to show what the anti-navigation computer side is like.
Without input that drop into the star's influence will destroy a ship. That;s the single point I'm making. The input required to avoid that fate should have to come from the pilot. Not an AP. My opinion.
