MattNW wrote:Not sure if this is a bug but what happens to the crew of a DGIV when it's on the pad at Prelude base and you put the shipinto safe mode. All it says is the crew has exited the ship but they don't appear in the Prelude crew list. Is this a bug ora feature to get rid of pesky crews?

So I can't control the camara's anymore. I'm probally the only one with thisproblem, so anyone knows how I can solve this problem?

I don't think there is any way to fix this, but the DGIVwill land all different kind of ways without a problem on Phobos. I land on the antenna and it doesn't break. I landedvertical on the engines and they don't break. Is the gravity really so poor on this body that the Antenna could support theDGIV? If so, my UMmu ought to be able to grapple the DGIV and throw it. Thoughts?

You'd think you'd want to fly and try to land with the AP.If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, then this happens because DanSteph assumes you're using a joystickto fly. Same thing was occurring for the UMmu jetpack hover autopilot, but a couple of us spoke up and got him to change it.

You could lift it with just one hand. Just lieft it up, use your suit jets and there shegoes! Yes i've done my research
Voyager wrote:It's a feature like mentioned before, for when the DGIV is docked to a mothership and not used for a extended period (likethe Vespucci heading to Mars) Basically all crew exit the ship and board the mother ship (or base if your landed on theground), without the mothership having to have UMmu capabilities. So you basically hide the crew. When I land at a preludebase i just EVA the whole crew and cut all systems right before i EVA the captain, so the ship doesn't go into safe mode.
