wandering Coriolis

Post by Commander McLane »

I had an extra-strange experience right now!

I was launching from a main station, in which I had spent a couple of hours (playtesting, docking, having dinner, ... returning to the computer, launching). No planet in front of me! :shock: The planet-sign on the compass not direct forward. I turn in that direction: The planet is visible very small in the distance. I press shift-F and see that I am at coordinates pwm 106774.91 -670817.56 463271.38. A second look tells me that there are 415 objects in the system.

What has happened? Something exploded in the docking bay and pushed the station away while I was docked? The beacon still seems to be at its usual place. But as I am parking in front of the station it doesn't move at all.

Very strange indeed! :?

You must have forgotten to put the handbrake on and left it in reverse gear

Obviously. By the way, on my way to the planet I met (or should I say: hit?) a fugitive Ixian Battlecruiser moving outward. So perhaps there was a collision. I made sure it won't happen again! :twisted:
