Reediculouhs	Posted - 2010.05.31 16:50:00 - [1] I was noticing that in my Hulk when I press "align to" anything and than I stop the ship that the ship rights itself back to a "starting" position on a certain "angle" of the game. It's almost as though the solar systems are not truly 3D or it should not matter which "angle" my ship is at. Once aligned unless I change ship direction shouldn't it stay facing that way? Thanks for any comments or trolling :p. Hopefully I can get at least one serious answer.
Xyla Kador	Posted - 2010.05.31 16:52:00 - [2] dont make it go full stop, make it slow down to something like 0.1 m/s and itll stay aligned ^^
Reediculouhs	Posted - 2010.05.31 16:59:00 - [3] Thanks. That is a great idea.
Jagga Spikes Minmatar Spikes Chop Shop	Posted - 2010.05.31 17:15:00 - [4] by definition, "being aligned" requires both direction AND speed. there is very little difference between standing still and going 0.1 m/s, if required speed is 50-60 m/s, even if direction is correct. ________________________________ : Forum Bore 'Em : Foamy The Squirrel
Reediculouhs	Posted - 2010.05.31 17:28:00 - [5] Oh so your saying there is a minimum speed for staying aligned?

Windjammer Gallente	Posted - 2010.05.31 17:36:00 - [7] Originally by: Reediculouhs Oh so your saying there is a minimum speed for staying aligned? No. He's saying that there is a difference between being pointed in a particular direction and being aligned. Being aligned means you are both pointed in a direction and are traveling at 75% of your max sub-warp speed or more or close to it. From this situation you can nearly instawarp if you want to escape.
