Originally by: Reithan Now, just make it so that any ships flying in a formation are counted as just ONE single entity by the server for purposes of collision checking, movement, etc.
That's not possible unless all ships in each formation are controlled by one single player (even then probably tricky).
If that's the case, first of all, it sort of takes away from the game play for a lot of players. Secondly, you will start seeing single players flying around with 10 battleship alt fleets. ------------------

Originally by: Reithan Hannobaal & CrestoftheStars: Both of those things have already been discussed. If you're not going to read past the 1st post, nor contribute anything worthwhile, GTFO.
I did read the whole thread and my point stands. Already many people regularly fly around with 2-3 ships in battles. Implement your idea (even if it is only movement control) and you will make it feasible for single players to fly around with 10+ ship alt fleets. ------------------

Maybe you should train Reading Comprehension III?
Sounds to me like you should give that advice to yourself.
Quote: The ONLY thing the formation leader would take over control of is MOVEMENT.
I understand that. As I said: Quote: (even if it is only movement control)
Quote: I mean, if you're really that worried about it, people could do it already! Start a gang of 20 alts, put them in sniper setups, use the leader to gang-warp in to 100km... ...now have fun trying to target with each alt and activate all their modules.
Good Luck.
Like I said, people flying with several ships in battle already happens. I have seen it several times in game. For now it's only 2-3 (at most 4) ships. Take away the need to move each ship individually and you make it possible for far more ships to be flown by a single player.
Quote: PS: If you don't wanna snipe, you may notice the gange leader has a command available called "Regroup". It makes all ships converge on you and stay close to you. OMG YOU MEAN THEY CAN ALREADY CONTROL THE GANG'S MOVEMENT! OMGHAXX!
No, they can't. There is gang warp though. ------------------
