Method to enable mobile loose grids on a ship to match main ship movements ???
Not Enough Votes
On SE1 I tried to have a rover to get from one end of my ship to the other,
a bit like on the film 'Silent running'.
Tried grav.gen. and space balls. No good
It is problematic.
I did not hit any droids. Huey, Dewey and Louie are OK.
I hit everything else or just floated around.
The wheels just slip
I have just seen an SE2 video about Magboots.
I need Magwheels, or a travelator, or relative velocity and positioning for grid on grid, or something.
Tip:
A train track from front to back is a nice solution, just have connectors on each end to lock it, but when the ship is moving, the train, if made right, will stay aligned and using thrusters without share innertia will allow travel from back to front. (Masu's bullet train is a really stable track - bogie design that works fantastic.)
having thrusters pointing to the ground with a slight thrust override is also an idea.
But yes, relativity bubble around capital ships like they do in X4 rebirth would be so nice. so when a small ship closes in to a larger ships sphere of influence, that ship is automatically set to be in relation to the main grid in a kinda bubble around the bigger ship.
kinda like share inertia but in a bubble around the ship.

Actually, magwheels sound pretty awesome. And pretty useful for asteroid mining or very steep terrain. I like that suggestion.
