Either my driving really sucks or...
Running 1.80 with the Clippers .oxz loaded, I shelled out for a Python Clipper and it has some real strengths - speed, capacity and the ability to carry mil shields. But I'm fast losing confidence in my ability to dock with fuel stations, and I just wiped out on entry to a HoOpy Casino. I didn't think my piloting had gone downhill so quickly since upgrading from a plain Python. Is this bus notoriously hard to park or is it just me?

I came across the same problem but with Boa Clipper. With fuel stations I crash 2 times out of 3, really frustrating. Feels like Clippers have collision problem area around the ships, but I am not the one to guess.Malacandra wrote:Running 1.80 with the Clippers .oxz loaded, I shelled out for a Python Clipper and it has some real strengths - speed, capacity and the ability to carry mil shields.

Hmmm, this is strange. Both Clipper variants use the original Oolite models for the Python and Boa CC and although they have sub-ents added (eg engine etc)they should be effectively the same size as the (old) standard ships.
