Hanni79 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Greetings everyone, when placing stations I notice their orientation is all over the place, which I dislike for one and which can be somewhat impractical, especially inside of asteroid fields. How do you align your stations ? Any tips or tricks how to properly place them ? (On that note, it would be cool to have an ecliptic fot that purpose) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DivineEvil Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Well, the way I do it, is while I pilot the Station Founder ship, I: - First, mark a sector directly up (North) for jump and align the ship to the jump direction. - Then mark a sector directly to the right (East), and align the ship so that jump direction is exactly to the right (roll only). - This makes the ship aligned exactly to the galactic plane looking North, so then I found a station. - You should make sure the station has a large mass and comfortable docking bays so that you won't knock it off by any means. Sadly If you do, there would be no way to correct it accurately. Honestly, I think stations should at least have Gyros operational if you place them.
