I was looking at the new station trailer's and was thinking about how nice it would look it ships did something like this in game. What I was thinking was that during the session change time (30 seconds after docking or changing ships) that we would see the ship flying over the platform. This would only run in the background and would not actually force players to what to do other station interactions, it would only happen during ship session changes.
So when I dock either we get this nice view of the ship as its entering the station and stops over the platform or we get a look at the empty platform with the ship eventually stopping over it.
When we change ships, the old ship flys away and the new ship flys over the platform in its place.
When we exit the ship into the pod, the pod ejects then the ship flys away.
And when we get into a ship from a pod the ship flys over the pod and the pod disappears into the ship.
We could also expand this to when the fitting screen is open some docking clamps or worker bee ships start flying around the ship.
And there could even be a short animation of the ship flying off the platform when exiting the station, as this is happening the screen fades into space.
All of this would happen only in the background and would not cause any unusual delays to any station interactions, it would only be a cool animation that happens in the background to slightly improve the immersive effects.
And as an added bonus maybe we could get some other ships flying around the background of the station similarly to what was happening in the videos.

Sounds cool. Just tell me I won't have to view it all the time because my computer sucks.

I personally support the idea after watching those station trailers. The animation persoanlly i think might add an extra layer of depth to the joys of docking. Personally when it comes to stations, most revamps im hoping comes with incarna.

Would be good, and would help stretch the wait for Incarna.

Sounds like a really good idea, It would be nice to have the ship fly into the stations dock and disapear once its gone from sight, ecently once the person is docked, since the stations towes the ship into the station it can move quicker then the ship can move on its own. As for the station platform that sound nice too, it could land on the plat form once the person is loaded into the station(compeats dock) the platform could move down like one on a US Carrier when a airplan/helicoper goes into or even out of its hold.

i think when you change ships it should pop the pod out and pop it back in

those trailers are WAY cool. I hope they are a bit of an incarna teaser....
eye candy is always good but i do understand that the devs have plenty of other priorities...... and yes, and off button is always good as not to hurt those with lowend pc's. I like the increased immersion that those vids could bring to the game =) |

Nice idea, I support this product / service!
One thing - the undocking animation actually would have a lot of sense now, since undocking can take a minute or so, even in not congested systems in 0.0

Is there going to be an animation for getting all the donuts into the pod?
"Your pod is still preparing the ambiotic fluid. Now we just have to find a place for the donuts within the next 15 seconds."

I simply love this idea =), thumbs up. We all love eye-candy and we all hate idle waiting times.
