The Coriolis-butcher

I haven't seen any massacre in this scale yet in the stations.
I approached with my T-9 to the mailslot prepared for landing. Of course another T-9 was spawned there to come out - I was 'quicker' so I took my manouvre to go first and landed.
The other T-9 could not manage to find its way through the slot so the station turned it into dust. Strict rule for sure.

But the hunger of the station had just been turned on.
An Adder tried to exit the station but had to deal with the floating wrecks of the T-9. Anyway, the station lost its patience and vaporized the Adder too.
I switched off the commodity market screen and turned my head towards this hopeless gladiator fight.
The station opened fire to a third ship.
Even my TrackIR couldn't help me to see what ship was the victim this time. Exploded after a few shots so it might have been something small.

Then I had to go down to the hangar quickly as the biggest chunk of the exploded T-9 was floating and spinning towards my cockpit and I wasn't in a mood to have half of a T-9 in my face.
But as the lift started descending with me I saw the station going on thinning the ship stock - a few pews over my head before I reached the safe hangars...

So.
It was fun for sure - I may have caused a bit of turmoil in the scripted behaviour of the other entering/exiting pattern of the ships.
The AI may need some more attention around the docks though.
And the view from dock 32 needs more improvement as well :)

I have come across this situation more and more now in the current build, it was really bad just after 1.2, then after that a patch by FD made the ships line up and wait in turn to leave and it seems to work o.k. Then the last 3 or 4 weeks the ships have seemed to line up and then either forget to leave or they just want to make a mess of the station I am guessing.
I saw an Orca, Asp, Type 7 and a viper all get it at Warwal the other day, yea it sure makes a mess but I love looking around the station with the Track I.R. too.
I think lately a lot of pilots have got lonely and have decided to end it all before the Thargoids eat their brains, that must be the answer.
