Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - Anomander - 03-19-2013
As we all know - in Zoner ID there is a line:
Quote:Cannot dock cruisers, battleships, or transports with more than 3,600 cargo within House Space, except Aomori Station, the Battleship Hood and Zoner bases.
But there is a thing- Corvo is smaller than most of Gunboats
plus in all 4 House Space You cannot fly free around without permit
in capital ships, so why we have such prohibition?
Zoner crusiers are not capatious 'trade ships' but may be use as heavy escort
(after gain permission)
So there is my proposal - remove crusiers or ad least Corvo from
prohibition in ID
Quote:Pilot carrying this ID is a Zoner who:
Can attack lawful and unlawful targets in self-defense, to protect another trader, or in defense of Zoner bases.
Cannot dock cruisers, battleships, or transports with more than 3,600 cargo within House Space, except Aomori Station, the Battleship Hood and Zoner bases.
Allowed ships: Fighters, Bombers, Freighters, Transports, Gunboats, Cruisers, Battleships

I would gladly agree but...which gunboats is it smaller than?
RE: Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - Anomander - 03-19-2013
eg Rheinland, Liberty one is bigger - hell when I meet one in space my Zoner Gunboat was bigger than Corvo.
RE: Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - sindroms - 03-19-2013
The size of the ship does not guarantee its weight as well as level of danger. I would think that even if gunboats could be landed on gravity pads we see in the ship and equipment dealers, larger capital ships such as cruisers would be have to moored, rather than landed in the hangars.

I'm going to put a suggestion out to you lot:
Escort in gunboats and bombers. Caps don't need to be used all the time, and we in the houses have no obligation to let you run around with them.
RE: Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - Anomander - 03-19-2013
yet Local BS, Crusiers, Gunboats land on planets and small stations - so why not small Corvo?
RE: Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - sindroms - 03-19-2013
Well, they land on said solars because of game mechanics. If you cannot dock with a solar without using a docking animation (Only using quickdocks) then the ship is moored, rather than landed.

I do not know why You look at this in such negative light - it could be an oportunity for more RP comunications
(eg, permission to move in home systems) bigger chanlenge for pirates ect...

Ku Hatchets are smaller than some gunboats, and yet they're still cruisers - and deadly ones at that. As long as a ship can mount cruiser equipment and fire cruiser guns, it should be treated as such - and Zoner cruisers of any kind don't belong in the houses, much less the one designed for exploring deep space far from civilization.
RE: Corvo - exception to the rule in ID - proposal - Anomander - 03-19-2013
yet the only Zoner ones are prohibited by ID to land on House system bases/planets - and that is the main reason
I ask to change that.
