Since my intention is not to reward autopilots but to give players actually piloting their ship a means to end permabumping, selecting a new “emergency” destination was kind of implied, sorry for not spelling that out.
25s seems to be too short. A freighter being bumped needs about 2 minutes to realign. A 60s timer already gives a bumper leeway in handling his maneuvers.
Can we agree on a maximum tolerance of 90° and 2°/bump? It would take 38 bumps to reach maximum aperture this way.
I like the idea of different maximums for different sec.
