    Do you want assistance with that or not? Because you haven't exactly given us the scenarios in which your ships are having control issues. We can't read your mind to see what the issue is. Maybe take a picture of the ship so we can see what you're trying to explain? Also using thrust vectoring 100% of the time in space is generally a bad idea since it wastes fuel and can mess up the orbit.

    I've already been through all this with the people that make the game, hence I'm not likely to find anything new from you.

    My doubts aren't irrelevant, I'm trying to help or at least figure out what issues you're having.

     

    And you're not supposed to use thrust vectoring in space, that's what RCS and reaction wheels are used for. Thrust vectoring and control surfaces for takeoff and atmospheric control, RCS and reaction wheels for when you're in a vacuum.

    Your doubts are about me using what I should be using, but even when I use a prebuilt from the game devs it still won't work right. So yes, your doubts are irrelevant.

    There's... nothing wrong with the flight controls though...

    It's very simple and basic, w and s for pitch, a and d for yaw, q and e for roll. It really doesn't get simpler than that. The only reason why flight controls would ever be bad is if you were specifically not designing your ship with flight control in mind (i.e. without reaction wheels, thrust vectoring, RCS, and aerodynamic surfaces.)

     

    Interesting you should mention that, because none of those controls work like that for me for some reason, and this is on 4 different systems so far... That also doesn't address the thrust system, or the docking system, or any number of other things that are horrible for their controls relating to actually flying the ships.

  3. All they have to do is make it less "this magic thing happens because the writer decided that the universe works differently for this paragraph than any other time in the script", and more internally consistent with the established universe. (basically what we already know about our own universe, adding the force and FTL, and nothing radically different)

     

    Solo was actually a really good Star Wars movie IMO, and apart from the original trilogy, better than all but Rogue One.

  4. For the most part, I disagree with the cause being solely because of human actions, (what the majority of the media publicizes) but not entirely disconnected. From what I have seen and heard from actual scientists that study more than just human interactions with the environment, solar activity and other less easily quantifiable sources of the heating are a bigger contributor.

     

    As for the extent, those are definitely worst case... Any semi-realistic prediction says that the chances of each of those things should be reduced by about 2/3. The most likely doomsday scenario is that the heat will increase just enough to trigger the release of the methane deposits at the bottom of the ocean. If this happens, everyone and everything on the surface of the planet will suffocate in a matter of hours. (unless you're above ~7500 feet ASL, IIRC) It will also result in basically the entire rest of the planet being engulfed in flames for several weeks/months, and destroying basically everything in a planet-wide methane fireball. Note, this is the most likely doomsday scenario, and it has a less than 15% chance of happening when given a generous helping of "worst case".

     

    We really need to get off this planet, and not mess up other planets when we get there.
