Exhibition at Witchpoint – Straight line to death!

Yesterday I had a most terrifying experience. After coming out of witch space tunnel I almost slammed into the armada of ships and asteroids at the so called Exhibition. Even Casino was there and when I targeted it, it started to rotate smashing everything around it. I had very little time to pull away to avoid a straight line collision. Around these ships were clouds of loose cargo pods, large boulders from broken huge asteroids. To finish off the comic of the whole situation I managed to dock at the exhibitor casino! Fuel up and left for the main station.

Is it possible to move that exhibition further away in system or even out system to prevent future slamming into the cloud of ships? Put like an exhibition beacon for easy find on the compass?

PS: I am really itching to put a Q bomb nearby and watch the fireworks. ;)

Thanks,
vsfc

Hi vsfc,

When you say 'exhibition', do you mean like the ones desribed here:

If so then that sounds like something you should post over at Norby's thread for his oxp. I expect he'd welcome the report.
