Does stuff happen when I'm docked/landed?

Post by DarkVixen »

I noticed that when I dock or land somewhere, and then launch back into space, all the ships seem to have moved quite a bit.

Does simulation continue even when I'm docked/landed?

Also, I read on another threat ("Trade While In Flight" http://forums.vega-strike.org/viewtopic ... 21&t=18470) that there are plans to make trade happen while simulation happens, I think this would be way too complex for a player to manage (maybe I'm not an advanced gammer), but I find the pace of the whole game a little too fast, actually.

Quick answer yes the sim continues and not just in the system you are in :)
That in flight trading could happen but not till we some more coder types on board,If you think is fast now you should have been around when were stress testing each system had an average of 500 ships buzzing about remember surviving a 20 ship fur ball fight got about 15 of them myself :D and I'm over 60 ;)

Depends on "simulate_while_docked" in config, physics section. Thus in default this should not happen. It may be used in net games, or something.

I do not see "simulate_while_docked" in that section at all TB it's in the miscellaneous section ;)
