Landing Pad Numbers?

Postby rray4647 » Fri Dec 01, 2017 5:44 pm

Is there a pattern to the landing pad numbers at the larger stations? It seems somewhat random on where the number is depending on station.

Kinda like whomever designed the station had never landed a ship there.

I think I would have gone with the first circle of landing pads, just inside the entrance, as 11, 12, 13, 14, 15. The second circle in as 21, 22, 23, 24, 25. Third ring as 31, 32...

If you go in with greens on the right (standard naval protocols) pad 2 will always be below, 24 close and above, 25 above and to the back etc etc.

Doesn't really matter.
As soon as you pass through the slot he nav ball/compass points to your pad.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Tks

I search the net for landing pads but I like your version Tor.

Ya I know the pip shows you the location of the pad, kind of. I mostly use it when I shoot by my landing pad in the first row.
