Question regarding docking bays on starships for large (100m vessels) #5

Open nokturnihs opened 4 years ago

nokturnihs commented 4 years ago

So question regarding docking bays inside the larger 100m ships... would like to put a hangar that could support the accompanying shuttle into the larger ship, that said I tried the gravity projectors and the shuttle doesn't respect the gravity of the larger vessel. Is this something I should wait on (for more progress on the stations as an example) or am I missing something?

Also am considering a garage on the same large ship. Not sure planets/stations will necessarily support 100m ships landing and dropping off vehicles but would also be good to know?

So yes I want to have some docking and magnet lock for the ship. Not sure if they will be sensitive to artifical gravity though, as they can be much large than the gravity field itself. I also want to have shipyard / landing pad on the terrain, but it will take a bit of time to get there (I want terrain editing first).

So maybe wait for the larger ships then if we want docking bays in them. You have any expectations regarding the window on that one bud?

Would be short term, likely a bit after early access. I am working on sensor atm, which will be needed in some way to detect when your ship is in.
