Look into making a gravity catapult mod #25

grav gen cubeblocks has a bunch of interesting values:

      <MinFieldSize x="1" y="1" z="1"/>
      <MaxFieldSize x="150" y="150" z="150"/>
      <MinGravityAcceleration>-9.81</MinGravityAcceleration>
      <MaxGravityAcceleration>9.81</MaxGravityAcceleration>

could style them so they've quarter circles but high and with ribs, and can be slotted together to make a whole circle. cargo then goes into the middle and gets shot upwards. reduce x/z of field size but increase y to accelerate for longer and to higher speeds. Strongly increase acceleration values. Might need a speed mod to fully utilize this.

Grav gens still won't work on earthlike, even with higher accel. But could make a repulsor device that is able to push grids away if digi agrees to let me borrow his grav gen code to allow it to push grids. combine with spherical grav gen.
