' Wrote:Flying in formation just got a whole lot more annoying. Especially in asteroid fields.
I agree. I didnt test it yet, but will do as soon as i can. Since we always use formation flight, with sometimes 4 shires formed on 1 gunboat, for example, this results in heavy bounces when only one of us has a lag spike.
This hadnt been a prob yet, but with the added hull damage it possibly may become. Ill check it.
Formation flight: Wouldn't it make sense to just increase the distance between formed up ships so that the possibility of hitting each other is reduced? Could be an easy fix.
And: even in reality formation flight is not entirely safe... so some collisions (not as many as now, I completely agree) can and perhaps even should happen.
