I gotta say this thing is just ugly as hell. I love it.   Is it possible to spawn player ships for missions inside this thing so they actually have to 'take off'?

That's one thing I always disliked about Freespace. You're called to duty, they drug you, and the next thing you know, you wake up in your fighter flying alongside your ship. Its really quite odd.

Thats way i started the Hanger Movement. Its perfectly possible to start the game inside the hanger of a ship and have reinforcements come from the hanger. It all spawned when i asked if the GTD [G](BWO thing super uber ship  ) had a hanger you could fly into. Great things start small

I liked the mission in FS2 where you statred on a 'wing' of the hectate. Closest thing to a hangar start. (I think)

Hangars are cool - some of the bigger ships have massive hangars with mulitple entrances (the TSC carrier has 3 )

I have a mission or two where you start inside a fighterbay.

All three of my ships, the GTExD, the GTExE and the GVCa Amaunet, have fly-throughable parts. The only one that isn't a hangar proper is the GTExE, but that's just a big engine.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
