Terms and phrases from The Black

[Ian Doncaster]

A few more:

Basecamp/Waypoint: A specific location, usually on a planet surface, for regrouping and socialising on expeditions.
Beacon (or Bacon): A wing beacon. Often used to allow incoming ships to rapidly find a Waypoint, and to improve their chances of getting into the same instance.
Lithobraking: Reducing the velocity of a ship significantly by use of collisions between it and a planet's surface.
SRV Elevator: The use of a ship to lift a SRV, either to rescue a stuck one or just to give it a better view

selfish - those that scan everything
lazy - those that don't scan everything
annoying - those that come to the forum to tell us about it

Damned that was funny, can't stop laughing - "sub-optimal landing" - have some rep..

That (Krollin) never gets old. I love the way the SRV driver and the hovering Asp stop to watch the show...
