    Allow Rail Docker- and Turret Rotator Blocks to clip into each other and adjacent blocks to allow more compact PD-Designs.

    This behaviour would mimic round turret-joints and would still prevent awkward turret angles and also limit FOF.

    I would like this, maybe as a server option. I've found it very difficult to make not ugly small turrets, which is a pain because the ship I'm working on with rails is only a few hundred meters long.

    Or at least have it only check if the center of a block will intersect mothership, not the entire block.

    I don't dislike this idea, but I can see why not.

    One way around this is to change adjacent blocks into wedges. There's plenty of clearance then.
