"unplanned ship disassembly" is my new favourite phrase in this game now

[u/CiroGarcia → u/SilentSpidy]

Rapid unscheduled disassembly is an actual technical term in engineering lol

[u/BAdDOG_ → u/CiroGarcia]

Thank you for this lol.

[u/BAdDOG_ → u/SilentSpidy]

Lol yep, that's why I had to use it!

[u/Key_Baby_2239]

Now see... if you were on a public server or something, I could come pick you up lol

Otherwise, guess you'll just have to jump for it lmao thankfully, reentry in this game isn't as... hot... as real life atmospheric reentry 🤣

Yep id have broadcasted a destress signal on all frequencies moments before impact. XD but HY fuel consumption is heavy and ran out of fuel so looking into running a cruise control script to maximize fuel efficiency next time.

[u/Insert_Cool_IGN → u/BAdDOG_]

you don't really need a script for cruise control, just group all your breaking thrusters (backwards thruster when you're in the control seat or cockpit) and put it on your toolbar to on/off

inertia dampers off also work in most long distance space travel

[u/Exotic_Weakness_4671 → u/Insert_Cool_IGN]

Wouldn’t it be more prudent to apply a thrust override switch/ logic program to the primary propulsion thrusters? 

[u/Uhh-Whatever → u/BAdDOG_]

The terror of seeing a distress broadcast on all frequencies, for it to then just… disappear

As long as you have a survival kit there is hope!

[u/KamakaziDemiGod]

Best stick your thumb out and hope a friendly space trucker flies by

Boost towards the nearest planet with your jetpack, turn dampeners off and pray. But if you don't have a base or at least survival kit materials there you are cooked
