Newcomer / Intro Today's advice for all of us newcomers

[NokturN]

Get rid of the drive assist module. Get rid of the landing assist module. You bought a spaceship simulator so learn how to fly your ship.

I support this initiative (not that there's anything wrong with that)

I've yet to use either, but I find ship operation one of the most appealing parts of the game and I would not want to miss that by having it automated. But blaze your own!

 

[Vetinari]

You do realise you can only use that patronising argument until EDO launches when you dont even need a ship to play the game and its not a 'spaceship simulator'?

Advice for noobs, run a mile from anyone telling you what to do or how to play the game.

But i like being able to lock in & auto dock/land/cruise, go to the bathroom, have a quick nap, make some food knowing my ship is slowly doddling to its destination safe and sound in the hands of Auto Dock GLaDOS. The last time I manually left a station I racked up some pretty heavy fines lol Im getting better at landing though! Its that pesky station mail box hatch that hangs me up.

The thing about the automation in our ships is that it is about as smart as cruise control was in cars twenty years ago, so safe and sound when you aren’t there is extremely optimistic.

Beryllium to Witch Head.
Full assists.

 

[NokturN]

Always a few bumps and bruises when landing on manual but alot more fun.

 

[CMDR Sophie Joanne]

I learnt to dock on day 1 - then got really confused as to why the docking musoc stopped playing

 

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

But I like the SCA, FAon and ADC. I use them because I can and I want to.

 

[the100thmonkey]

Get rid of the flight assist module, then we can talk.

 

[GroG79]

welllll SCA is quite OP

 

[BirdWisdom]

First of all I never use it in the open but if I do it's to tease someone

I use docking computer in solo just because I'm lazy and I use that dead time to visit water closets, get more Coffee or get more soda water with lightly flavored with pears
