Creating a playable capital ship

Been thinking about creating an OXP that gives a player-flyable capital ship, on a similar vein to the one that Smivs's is working on. One question though, if the ship is too big to dock, how do you test such a ship? Can the player ship be changed via the console?

Yes, but only while docked. The player ship isn't checked for compatibility with dock size, though, so you can launch just fine, and dock again with station.dockPlayer()

Ah, cool, I was worried about that. Don't hold your breath for the OXP though! :twisted:
