Oh my..! o.O That's wicked. Do those colored lights do anything beyond providing depth/movement reference?

Good hosting for that file, btw.

Those lights are obstacles for certain. (took me more than a few tries to get that video as it appears) Hitting one will drop you out of capsule space, so they must be avoided. They might do...something....else.....

I hope you watched the avi by the way. I am not a fan of flash (hate it with a passion) but had to use the flv options as my avi streamer was not working. The quality of the avi video is much higher. Glad you liked it by the way. I am sure you will like flying it even more!

About how long do you have in a capsule space tunnel before it collapses on you? Does it collapse on you? If not, then to encourage fancy flying and afterburning it probably should. =)

[edit]And then I notice the countdown timer. Never mind.[/edit]

We are currently trying to balance out just how long the capsule tunnel will hold. Once the time is out you are dumped back into normal space. If you are not at the end of the capsule tunnel, you will suffer damage. Likely more unstable L-points will have capsule tunnels that collapse more rapidly. As well, unless you have a sufficently powerful or advanced Capsule Drive, you won`t even be able to open a capsule tunnel at certain unstable L-points. Actually, you won`t even recognize the L-point as being capsule capable.

Excellent work!!

By "something else" do you refer to completely destroying you’re ship, dropping you off in the middle of a mine filed with chaos aliens, placing you in the middle of an asteroid field with a lot of gold ore around and an abandoned destroyer or they just go BIG-boom killing the pilot but leaving the ship partially intact?
