I propose for 2.6 that test use their caterpillars to capture small asteroids by scooping them up with the front bay of the caterpillar and dump them around various places on port Olisar. Any takers?

I don't think the game mechanics will allow it, but I say we give it a try anyway.
Jeah, I'm not shure if Asterioids are moveable and if we can find some which are small enough to fit into the Cat, but let's give it a try!

Alternate mission: Try to fit the Starfarer into the cat. For science.
Plan C: I'll eat some Cookies.
Hmm, can we try Plan C first?

I am pretty sure the starfarer is shall we say larger. That being said if you open the cargo doors on the starfarer can you insert the catapillar. Surely the catapillar can fit in that long corridor down to the front turrets?
Always cookies first...dipped in beer

I would like to try to fit all smaller ships in the Cat just to see which ones fit. And to see if we can fit multiple ships in each container. I CANT WAIT!!! So excited!

Anyone who wants to try to fit his little ship in my cat is welcome.
Hmmm sounds a bit

Maybe I'm wrong, but I remember someone doing (or trying) exactly this ages ago in AC.

I hypothesize that the cargo area of the Cat is quite similar to a Tardis, in that it is larger on the inside. How can we know for sure if we don't try?......at top speed. TEST science.
Thought of this at nearly the same time this morning. Will be doing it as much as possible provided they are not true static props.
When a ship moves into another ships internal coordinate system, it follows the rules of that ships gravity, movement, and whatnot. I wonder, what if a larger ship envelopes a smaller ship, will the smaller ship still get thrown into the larger ships coordinate system? If that was to happen, it could happen for asteroids as well, I think just about every entity has that property.
So, TEST with asteroids, ships, people, space stations and beer.

shining examples of emergent gameplay, all these ideas
leave to TESTes' imagination what CIG could never dream of

I am so in. Y'all can try to smash whatever you want into my deep long hole.
Why are we not calling this "Caterpillar Sex Theories"?
i say its a plan. At the very least it'll look cool and spaz out the game!

If it aren't broke, we'll brake it :-)
I have an 85x with LTI that is available for testing. I'm sure that can fit in the landing gear bay :-D
