ship accidents

That happens anyway. Go to LA, and just watch as the transports blow up. It's really quite entertaining. "This is Universal *whatever*. I'm carrying *stuff* from...." *boom*

One had better be very carefull when shooting out of the last gate of the trade lane at LA which is very close to the planet. I was getting set to turn into the docking ring when I was hit by an AI transport and before I could recover I was into the planet...BOOM! End of story.

Since, I'm very careful when close to any docking ring or planet. I usually take a hard right (or left, as the case may be) and slow down going away. Then I turn back (in mouse mode) and select the docking ring. From there I let the computer do the rest.

Bah, I got tired of all that waiting for the computer to fly me around and line me up and all that at docking rings so I started cruising in and hitting F3 just as I got to the ring so it'd instantly send me in. Then I hit the arm on the ring, and before I knew what had happened I was a fiery streak across the planet's sky. Live and learn, I guess
