how cool would it be if you could dock with a multiperson ship you had disabled and board it, it would link the ground game and JTL a bit more as you would have combat in ships as well as space combat


perhaps you would have to make the disabled ship immune to all damage while someone was boarding it so it doesnt get blown up while your fighting.

I'd say have a boarding room and lock the door for 1-2mins until attacking units are loaded up then open it up. Make fighters and ships boarding disapear so someone else could board after you and so your ship doesnt get blown up boarding too, Or if it was a multiperson ship boarding make both immune to space damage and have hatch between ships locked until everyone has loaded up then open it up.


Perhaps add a self destruct panel in ship so the aim of the boarding is to blow up the ship via console and kill the defending players, if your ship is destroyed you spawn on land not in space station and the winners get extra faction points for the kill.


Just an idea feel free to add suggestions or flames :-P

Good idea Dlarit!

It would be pretty cool to run the old vette missions this way. Rather than grouping and hitting the vette from the ground....you can group, jump into a multi-player ship, find the vette you need, knock out it's weapons, disable it, then board it and do your vette mission. When/if you die when those pesky SBDs gank you, you spawn back on your ship and into the arms of your team doc who lovingly heals and rebuffs and sends you on your way...all from the safety and comfort of your own ship. And while the vette would not be attackable while players are on it...the players ship would be.


hmmmmm

Yeah I think being able to dock with other player ships to trade cargo and passengers in space is a good idea. It would work like a trade on the ground, just grant the other player permission to dock and you're ready to go. I'm not sure how I feel about ppl in fighters being able to enter a MP ship while in space. I think moving from one MP ship to another would be fine, just add an option to "Transfer to Docked Ship" to the escapepod control panel when another MP is docked. Fighter-to-fighter or fighter-to-MP docking should probably just be for in-space trades.
