Humazz	Posted - 2003.12.14 05:45:00 - [1] i wonder if the dev team spent so much time developing on graphics, did consider that having a good collision detection system would enhance the feel of the game? there are already some nice space skyboxes, and kool vertex shader implementations in the unique portrait generator...why not have some real collision detection physics(eg in doom3)... jus my 2 cents worth...

Zopha	Posted - 2003.12.30 11:59:00 - [7] You want to plough into a planet traveling at 3au/s? mind you it would be fun to do it to a station or gate at least once :) A more realistic system would be good for roids and indi's, hate getting stuck between two roids that are a few km apart :/

Alpha Centauri	Posted - 2003.12.31 11:17:00 - [9] yep I want to plough into anything, real physics would improve the game play IMO.

Xailia	Posted - 2004.01.02 05:00:00 - [11] The issue is data transfer. Add too much collision detection, and either you get a lot of data transfer from you to the server, or you end up with so much server-side prediction that your ship gets repositioned more than you want. IMO Accurate ship placement > Accurate collision detection. "The sky above the port was the color of a television, tuned to a dead channel."

Scorpyn	Posted - 2004.01.02 11:21:00 - [13] Actually, this should be improved... the way it is now, I get a lot of missiles exploding on invisible asteroids...

tehDigger	Posted - 2007.02.19 21:24:00 - [15] not to mention, that ships get stuck at station docking/launching in populated areas. should i go left? no, lets go right! no, let's go up, no let's go left, let's go down, let's just stop the ship at look around for while... if CD is already at such low level, why not just disable it? perhaps a redesign of the engine arhitecture is in order...
