Im trying to set up some drag bubbles and I cant get it to work just right. Most of the bubble I set up work just fine. But a few of them stop my ship right before it enters the bubble and not in the bubble itself. How can I correct this so the ships stop IN the bubbles? |

I'm pretty sure its random exactly where on the bubble edge you come to a stop.

If you are referring to the ~2500m area that lands around the edge of the bubble, that's the normal random landing point decided when a ship lands at the edge. |

Bigger ships also tend to get stuck further into the bubble as they land in them it seems. But yeah like everyone else has said thats the way they work.
Strength isnt measured in numbers but in force of will. For if one motived willful individual stands many will fall around him that are weak.

I did a lot of testing with bubbles, and found that most of the time they work exactly as expected, but once in a while you anchor one that acts really weird.
Example:
1. I once had a bubble that would drag you any amount of distance on grid. It was not limited to 100 km from the destination. Nor did your path have to cross it to be caught in it, land anywhere on grid and it would suck you in. I re-anchored it many tens of times during testing, but stopped when I hit a drag of over 450 km, and hit the edge of the grid.
2. I once had 3 bubbles overlapping side-by-side OOO and the central one would never stop nor drag anything, but the other two always did. I tested with an alt directly behind the bubble, and could warp right through it. |

Drag bubbles works gridwide. If you strech the grid with some gridfuu, even 800+ is possible. It involves lots of accurate skills to make it work.

I've seen strange behavior in cases where the grid is spammed with bubbles.
Were it up to me only one bubble per grid would be possible.

Drag bubbles are set up typically to be closer than the 150km back to the gate to prevent warping for that very reason. You need to still catch hapless victims with a point.

Well fun is also good.

Problem is people would grid-fu their way to putting a bubble at the far ass end of the grid to make sure they can't be bubbled... |
