Renewed plea for fixed entry/exit of cores and build blocks

[cyberus111]

Pretty please can we make it so you exit cores and build blocks where you entered them?

Burning my way out of things because I was tossed thru a wall is getting old.

Yeah, I've suggested this too: http://starmadedock.net/threads/res...tive-position-to-entered-entity-on-exit.8064/

It's planned. There's no reason why it has been implemented yet. It's not something "fun" to work on, is the only reason I can think for it, but it is an issue-- and easily fixed at that.

It's not fun when there's a communication problem with the server that requires you to disconnect and log back in, only to find that now, the ship you were once in, is no 10km away from you. I want to go so far as to remember the state your character is in (sitting, standing, gravity effect, etc).

Have you tried sitting before entering blocks? Look at the top of a block and hit 'o', then enter the block, when you exit, you'll still be sitting.

Yup, I was under the effect of gravity and everything. Problem is, the server didn't register it. The problem was, both the parent ship and docked ship were moving. You character shouldn't suddenly end up inside a wall ever, it doesn't matter if the object is in motion or not, it's a bug.

well, yeah it's a bug, currently sitting is the way to get around it lol. I too hope for ship-side spawning and player association upon logout. I dream of having a mobile base.
