Gankers and freighters, a request for discussion. Not a BJ RANT

Afaik, the velocity of all ships jumped by the MWJG retain their velocity and vector.
Ie: The ships continue just as before, in space, in all ways, except for having been moved 100km away. Nothing else is affected, except their location in space. Afaik, a ship that started the warp process before the jump, will continue on that as if they had not been jumped.


None of the above is relevant to bumping.

Bump to displace a ship (or MWJG it, and I have discussed that earlier in this thread).

But actual warp prevention, should remain in scram/disruptors/bubbles.

Bump a ship to displace it.
Poiint/bubble it to prevent it warping.
This is not a difficult thing to realize.

It’s relevant to the comment you made about modules not displacing. I vote NO!

Bump should bump.
Point should point.
Bubble should bubble.

Already does.

Already does.

Already does.

Nothing left to discuss here :sweat_smile:

I agree, everything works as it should

Bump currently, erroneously, additionally to displacement, has a tackle effect that overlaps points.
Points have no bump effect.
Bubbles effect everyone inside them.

A bump should not constitute a tackle.
It should just bump.

If you want to tackle, use point modules.

No it does not

And that’s fine

Not interdiction nullified ships

It does constitute a tackle

People do

Everything seems fine. Can we move on?

TLDR:
“Plz dont nerf bump, cos I dont want to point”.

Please don’t comment on topics you have obviously no clue about. Thanks

“Oh no, plz dont nerf teh bump!”
“I needz it cos I cant fit a point on a ship!”

Since you have no arguments left and resort to childish behaviour I think we can conclude the thread is done.

Do you know how to fit a point, or not?

Its not difficult, or expensive.

“Please make objects warps me when you’re within 45 degrees because I’m bad and enjoy flying 8b in a triple -expanded freighter. Please do this for me because me dying is totally not preventable nor is it my fault!”

Bumping is in no way a replacement for a point. All my ships have points fitted

Good.
Then point them to point them, and bump them to displace them.

The change wont hurt you at all.

But changing warp mechanics may very well hurt everyone.

I do. There is no change required since bumping does not tackle a target

You claim a bump doesnt cause a tackle?

Nah, it wont hurt anyone.

Just use scram/disruptor/bubble instead to prevent warp.

Yes, you can still warp off in the direction you are moving
