Station hugging on undock: If its your enemy doing it they are nigh on cheating, if its your allies that are doing it its a legitimate tactic.
afaik the server knows who is where in the system even when you are docked.
I was wondering how hard it would be to implement a little ingame tool that basically says "10 ships detected at undock of station."
Placing this in the game would then allow for all undocks to place you outside of redocking range.
A person undocking would have access to this tool so anyone undocking is effectively aware of their situation.
Seems a vastly more elegant solution than the current one.
Any thoughts?

So... I'll just hang well out of undock range. Say, battleship sniping range? And blow your ship up because you thought you were safe.

Easy solution to station hugging and station camping:
No pew-pew allowed within 25km of a station, or the station's defenses BBQ you, out to 300km (no sniping either).
Both sides stop whining, everyone wins. ;)

but why can't I aim my guns in the direction of a station?
and once again ou'r saying we'll just sit at 150km and snipe you becuase you thought you were safe while a small ship sracms you?
or are you saying stations have a magic shield of random fantasy mmoness? ----------------------------------- I'm working my way through college target CCP |

Yeah because what this game needs is a Safety Bubble of Sweet Cotton Candy Goodness wrapped delicately around every station in the game, where soothing music washes away your every worry as you prance through the fields of flowers, barefoot. :P

Been to low-sec much? Station defenses light you up if you attack anyone. Tankable, but puts you at a big disadvantage. ----

Why not make it even easier!
Outside every station there are aparently scores of abandoned camera drones (you know the non detectable drones we use to view space), why not have a button just above undock that allows us to connect to one of thise and see what is going on outside the station.
It cant be that hard to get somthing like that working and it would solve 100% of the "I dont know what it looks like outside the station." issues and still not break the spirit of the game.

Edited by: Lord WarATron on 31/07/2007 06:52:29 The easist solution, solving all buggy station exits, station bumping and undock spam and also station huggers is this.
If they made undocking from a station like jumping through a gate - then these issues are solved. You end up 15km in a random direction from the station. Volla. --

Why not change the current hanger view we see when docked, keep the interface the same but show the station from the outside as though you were doing look at. Sounds simple enough to me.

I just hope that when CCP introduce ambulation, we'll be able to look out the window to see if anyone is out there. However, I can see this being tricky to programme, so I'm not holding my breath for it. --------------------------------------------------------------------

sounds good
Anything is good, aslong as I can instantly redock when there's a gank of 10 people waiting for me (when i'm alone minding my own bussines in the system)
that or give me a scanner that i can use in a station! I don't like the gamble "is there anyone outside the staying = I lose and die a quick podpop, or it's safe and i can lalala happely ever after.
