I was wondering if you (Pilot Correspondant) could see if it would be possible to allow us to land on the surface making our ship visible. This would be great to load in and watch a landing sequence of your ship. Maybe make it so you need to use a 1 lot pad to allow for landing at a given destination of your choosing.


Maybe allow these pads to be placed on other planets besides the lot restricted one. This could be used to create a ferry service of sorts where a person could place them near important POI's on "dangerous" worlds and fly them to that spot for a fee/fun for everyone. Make the pads only last maybe 1 month (debatable time frame) so that architects could have some steady business. Just some thoughts.

Cool idea. Which means it will never be implemented, unfortunately.

Great idea. It would be even better if we could interact. Just imagine a strafing run on a Jedi!

That nice big spot on top of PA halls seems ideal to me...

Indeed sir! Thats all Id want.




Tho, if this "personal landing pad" idea went thru, I think more than half would end up being place somewhere in the southeast sector of Dathomir.

The idea of being able to land on your own Guilds PA Hall roof is a nice one, it could be expanded to so that guilds could allow other guilds to use there landing pad.

Id love that, since my home is a guild hall. and its just about the perfect size, unless you are using a tat hall.




Sissy. Han could land it.

I would give anything if I could see my ship on the ground. At least a landing animation into the starport. That would rule.

Even if they don't want to put the animations on there, it'd be awsome to be able to land at any hall that your guild has and launch from there as well.

Yes, a load animation for landing and takeoff would be great! Perhaps starport- or planet-specific animations that show the city (or at least a generic city of that planet)you launch from

It's a nice idea, assuming you can only see your ship. The last thing I want to see is a giant parking lot around Jabba's Palace or the Tusken Fort. It would be kinda nice to be able to land at my house (especially since it's a pretty long ways awayfrom any starports)

I liked this idea till I got a mental picture of what Sehvral just desribed in his last post.
