Vincent Rainbow Brutor tribe	Posted - 2007.09.13 16:13:00 - [1] DISCLAIMER: THIS POST IS NOT A WHINE ABOUT HIGH SEC FREIGHTER GANKING I have just spent the last 20 minutes watching my freighter slow down from about 0.7au/s or whatever the warp speed is, to 100m/s. This interesting visual spectacle, akin to watching grass grow or paint dry, came about as a result of me experiencing a disconnection in mid warp. If I log back in in a freighter after a mid warp disconnect my ship is flying somewhere randomly, apparently in warp but to nowhere, and gradually slowing down. Like, braking style slowing down, not "coming out of warp" slowing down. This takes a long time from eleventy billion km/s to 100 m/s. What is this all about? And can it be changed? Is it a bug or feature of some kind? I have important carebearing to attend to and havent got all day to wait for dodgy brakes.

I'll thank you for not bringing Physics into my clear-water submarine game thanks.

Thanks for taking my joke about the fact that the physics is messed up out of context.

RaTTuS BIG Ka-Tet	Posted - 2007.09.13 16:37:00 - [12] I think somewhere arround DT [i'll get a disconnect then also ] though you do get to see some really fast speeds not had it happen for a while mind you .... -- BIG Lottery, BIG Deal, InEve & RaTTuS Home

Sky Marshal Aeden Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2007.09.13 17:21:00 - [14] This anomaly don't concern only the freighter. Three days ago, I saw my Badger slow down from 7 millions KM/s to sub-warp standard speed during 2 or 3 minuts, after an unwanted logout...
Slithysss	Posted - 2007.09.13 17:59:00 - [15] Warped my obby INTO a gate once and was bumped out, took me about 15 minutes to come to a full stop So yeah..... ouchies
Alora Venoda Caldari GalTech	Posted - 2007.09.13 21:39:00 - [16] this post d/c mid-warp delay happens with any ship. it seems like it tries to warp around until it finds the exact spot where you disconnected, as it does when you d/c while standing still. but i have no idea why after a mid-warp d/c, it moves so slowly and takes so much longer before you can control your ship again... a spot in space is just like any other, right? maybe a dev can explain this behavior? ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ Take away the risk and it would make flying around in space utterly pointless. Take away the flying around part and you make EVE into a space themed spreadsheet application.
