AAAARGHHHHH !!!!!!
I just done the code to slow you when you carry an heavy things, work perfect, you can carry a 200kg cargo on moon (32kg) but not on earth for example. A 100kg cargo on earth would slow you down and a 150 might be impossible to deplace.
Why "aaaaargh" then ?
Because constructing a base with cargos maye become annoying or impossible without a vehicle and the only "outer space vehicle" is yet the Azure wich cannot be brought by other vessel than the Arrow.
I have now the choice:
1-Devellop a forklift for space (1 week of modelling)
2-Devellop a small "forklift" that UMMU are supposed to carry in "pocket" and can deploy using one key (2 days) This ->

3-Do a config utility (F11) to disable the weight limitation in UMMU (1 days)
4-Disable all my today's work, pretend they all have a bionic squelett in spacesuit (0 days)
None of those satisfy me, every player is different, some don't care about reality and prefere to move ton of cargo with UMMU, other may want to stick to reality.
My heart balance beetween 2 and 4.... :idk:
2 is annoying, one more key just to have the same result than 4? (a forklift in pocket ?

Choice 5:
Slow down to almost nothing with bigger cargo but doesn't stop. You'll still feel the weight and you'll still be able to construct a base. (5mn of work)

Ok choice 5 done, thanks to all for advice
(joking)
Other choices where not realistic either and too limiting
1-Would have no vessel to be carried to landing base (if not using the arrow)
2-Would require enormous pocket (realistic? )
3-Would give the choice beetween "no base" or "no weight"
4-Would be a bit ridiculous (2 ton at full running speed)
5- is just perfect... A good compromise.
