Gravity as a whole needs another pass.
As is, when on a planet starting up I dock a core to the ground so that I can jump in and out of it to turn off planetary gravity so I can fly up onto my defense tower to work on my turrets.
Certainly "gravity" is unsatisfactory as it is now. Its statelessness is one thing, its integration with game logic is another - the gravity unit can only toggle, not explicitly set or reset, your gravity; that regularly breaks automating changing gravity say, in airlocks - if you accidentally already are "in gravity", an automated "airlock" can't tell, and will make you weightless again.
Another thing is the complete lack of a transition - most of the times a sudden change in gravity is disorienting to say the least. Biggest problem is the automatic alignment (or the lack of free rotation in astronaut mode), until that is addressed, a gradual change over a second or two would help immensely.
Didn't it used to be like this? I remember spawning in underground on planets after logging out on them many times in the past, because the gravity auto-kicked in and sent me plummeting to the core through unloaded blocks.
So, I'm going to have to say "hell no" until that gets fixed.
If that was supposed to be a fix, then the fix needs to be fixed, so yes... hell no
until that gets fixed.
