Docking Slit location

Post by Selezen »

Giles, are there any plans in the pipeline for allowing multiple docking slits and allowing slits at other locations than the centre front of the ship?

Might this restriction be the reason why the game freezes (just freezes until I end the program) when I try to approach my first attempt at a dockable ship?

Well, uh, yeah - you've seen the Behemoth yes? Docking slits should be capable of being positioned anywhere, at any orientation. There may still be problems with the current collision detection code though...
