I noticed one thing: When I switch to external view, the ravenstar seems to gain some random translational speed (very low, but easily enough to mess up your final docking aproach). However, I wouldn't expect such a thourough Beta-team as was this one to miss such an obvious bug, so I guess the problem lies somewhere with my configuration... :dry:
can you make the xr2 controllable with out the pilot ? (in the current version) and if you can what is the name of it in the config
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If enabled, either the Commander or Pilot must be
# on board in order to control the ship; otherwise, the ship's controls will
# be disabled until either the Commander or Pilot reenter the ship. The
# Commander and Pilot are determined by the crew member's rank as defined
# in the PASSENGER sections.
#
# 0 = Any crew member on board can pilot the ship.
# 1 = Only the Commander or Pilot can pilot the ship.
#
# The default is 0, meaning that any crew member on board can pilot the ship.
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
RequirePilotForShipControl=0
what exactly you are seeing that makes you think that switching camera views imparts a velocity to the ship, I can take a look here.
Looks too me as if a couple posters were talking about controlling the ship while *nobody* is on board, as if the vessel were being operated by remote control-- in other words, maybe there should be an option totally disable the code that prevents the vessel from being controlled while no-one is aboard.
You've defined a total of 14 UMMU passengers in that file. Dosen't the XR2 only have room for 5?
If it does cause a framerate hit, then maybe Doug could make the landing gear mesh disappear when it's retracted.
well... lets put it this way, 1 set of new main gear is 1,500 triangles. just 1 of the crew meshes the other hand is over 5,000... so it's such a small increase in triangle count overall that i don't see how it's going to be an issue.
Shouldn't that be:# Define the default name, age, pulse, mass, rank, and mesh of all five crew members.
Does this make up for the brain-stall earlier?# Define the default name, age, pulse, mass, rank, and mesh of all fourteen crew members.
