Elite: Dangerous Supersonic rocks - Icebreaker Gliding

Most of the rocks do appear to be harmless and their hitboxes not loaded, but there are also some impostors that are the real deal, so if you wanna give this a go, I would definitely recommend visiting carrier Wanderer's Respite [V7W-L8B] in Phleedgoea QF-K c23-118 beforehand, it's only some 8 jumps from Icebreaker.
It was definitely one of the most unique things I experienced in Elite so far!

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

Oh yea, it slaps. Possibly even as much as those rocks lol. It's Art of rally original soundtrack - full throttle.

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

Hey, sry about the late reply 😅 you got the whole POI in the description if you interested in it 😁 And otherwise all good, just don't have that much time for Elite these days

[@NoXion100]

So how does this happen? Instance not loading properly?

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

Well, the game Always instances you in relative fixed position to what it thinks is the thing you want to be in, that's like vicinity of orbital stations and moons, or even rings. What's happening here is, that I am in the orbital cruise of the planet, and So that makes the game automatically calculate my movements relative to it, this can be seen nicely when you let yourself ve hit with the orbital cruise Area of Mitterandae hollow, suddenly it picks you up and you start moving super fast around it's planet with it. So what's happening here is that even though I technically drop close to the ring of the other planet, the game still takes my position relative to the planet in which orbital zone I am, which makes the rocks continue to orbit the other planet rather than "pick me up" with them making my movement relative to them 0.

wow. that is some very cringy disappearing rocks and bad bad bad textures. yeiks!

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

Shame on you! It's epic hehe

[@Sir-Complains-a-Lot]

@@cmdrHeliaxx Nope. Everybody has the same taste as me, therefore i must be right!

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

@@Sir-Complains-a-Lot Can't argue with that 😔

[@Sir-Complains-a-Lot]

​@@cmdrHeliaxx No you cant. Its called "circular reasoning"! and the algorithm doesnt care if i present logical fallacies or valid arguments 😜

[@Sir-Complains-a-Lot]

Actualy, yes you can. logical fallacies are NOT valid arguments.. I was realy trying to build you a golden bridge there, but well..
