Request center of mass changer

[zeldafan156]

ever get in a large ship, like those deep space things with a hundred ports? yeah there fun and all, but if you dock a large ship to the side and try to move the mother ship forward, it turns in the direction of the docked ship..... please, there needs to be some sort of mfd that instantly evens the center of mass if possible, this would be SO useful

I recommend [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3262"]Universal Cargo Deck[/ame]. Add the vessel to the larger ship as a payload and position it the way you want. It can all be done through the scenario editor. It uses attachments instead of docking ports, so there are no CoG shifts.

I'm investigating moveable booms (not wishbones ) for solar sails, which is a RL solution to fix torque imbalance, but this can get very unrealistic for arbitrary vehicles soon. There should be believable limits to CoG shift.
