Docking Idea Compilation

[Hierarch]

So I have spent some time thinking, and I want to make a Docking Suggestion mega-thread. For the simple fact of making it simple.

My current ideas are here. Read it before you post

I'll add all ideas in their appropriate place.

I hade quite a few ideas concerning docking , as well Bobby Ai, would u add them ?

Yo,

Great work on the list, I really like the idea of a docking computer module that could contain more info and help manage docked vessels

 

[Wrathserker]

What was bothering me with the turrets, they can only be docked perpendicular to the docking core.

wich is a pain since the deadspot is directly above the turret and the actual reach is close to the hull ,

good for strong mainguns, less for small Anti-fighter turrets wich would benefit from a bigger angle away from the hull.

Can you not orient the guns to creat vertical (as opposed to lateral) turrets? Like broadside cannons on old pirate ships?

 

[Hierarch]

as seen on the eighth slide, i mean for the turret base block to dictate the orintation of the turret, so if you change the orintation to be faceing sidways, then yes

 

[Wrathserker]

But that would kill the possibility of lateral turrets on the side of the ship

i didn\'t fully get what you meant but turrets are fine but there should be an option to only let them turn so many degrease other then that dont f with em

 

[Hierarch]

the idea i have helps with proccessing the firing solution, making them nearly perfectly acurate every time

 

[Minenine1255]

if turrets where PERFECTLY accurate all the time then people wouldn\'t add ship guns they would just add a bunch of turrets and it would unbalance the game imagine a ship with auto cannons that have 180 blocks each and where dot on accurate if they increases the accuracy only a vary little they would become so much more powerfully as i said i would only increase the accuracy if they buff up the shields and hull hit point i think they are not overpower and they are not underpowered they are fine

the only change they should get or need is my statement before \"\"there should be an option to only let them turn so many degrease\"\"
