hello ladies and gentlemen I was thinking (always dangerous I know) about another game I used to play that will remain unnamed (1970/80 t.v. show remade in 2005 I believe rag tag fleet, 13 colonies etc. you get the idea) anyway on this game they have carriers as well a main difference is fighter pilots (equivalent to our frigates) can dock on them rearm refit etc. I was thinking that could be a cool idea (especially tactics if carriers stealthed but since this isn't tactics forum ill save those) I think a auto repair faster then in space but slower then instant or super fast would be cool (maybe modules on carrier to accelerate this) allow the carrier a certain cargo bay that can be accessed by the frigate capusleers that can have items they an use (rockets, launchers, etc.) this would allow more coordinated group attacks ambushes and allow lower trained players to either get in on massive fleet actions or at least observe them just a thought other peoples ideas suggestions add ons etc. greatly appreciated |

Fighters do dock at our carriers.
Also, the reason it's not like that now is when they try it the server gets mad. |

BSG fighters != EVE frigate
BSG fighter = EVE fighter
EVE fighters dock on EVE carriers.
EVE frigates (and other ships) can "dock" with EVE carriers in two ways:
1) Soft dock - Uses carrier's ship refitting service.
2) hard dock - Insert ship (frigate to battleship) into the carrier's ship maintenance bay. (NOTE - capsuleers must leave the ship at the point of docking but can, if allowed, undock another ship from the carrier and fly that instead)
Eve carriers already have hangers that can be made available to the fleet they're in so that people in their fleet can refit, rearm etc. using the ship refitting service.
New players can already get in on large fleet actions by joining a corporation/alliance that operates in Nullsec. There are plenty that will take on new players simply because they can make good tacklers even with low skill points. If you or anyone else need pointers on how to find a corporation to join let me know and I or others can point you in a sensible direction.

Please learn to use the search function before posting a new thread.
This has been suggested hundreds of times before and has been shot down an equal number of time.
The reason for this is not necessarily because it's a bad idea, but simply because the engine CANNOT handle more than 1 player in a single ship.
Seriously, like the post above this one states, the server gets mad. Therefore it would require a complete rewrite of the game engine just to do 1 single thing, which is not worth the effort. |

Though immersive gameplay is always nice, it gets into the direction of haveing fitable stations move. And as mentioned - besides the server raging and the work ammounting - there is the tiny whiff of a balance issues. |
