Thanks buddy. I'll now use this to calc stuff out for the moth carrying a full load and trying to jump.

The problem is that a moth that carries 120 cus of Samo and 2... say swarms weight what? almost 1 million kg? 1000 tons?
While a Cent with two Neuts MKIII weighs about 3 tons? So either the moth waits for minutes, or the cent jumps practically instantly.

Or imagine a Connie full of Samo! 8000 tons just of cargo!

Hahaha. Would that be heavy enough to create its own noticeable gravity well?

We need gravity effects ingame. Oh, wait, then we'd need to render the planets. Nevermind.

IBG Centurions and Orion Rev C Centurions have 2 ports, Doakster.

Or did you think he meant Centaur?

Not really a noticeable grav field.

It's acceleration would be (5.4*10^-4) * (Mass of Other object) / (their distance squared)

To compare, for earth we have a=9.81m/(s^2)

Yes a fully loaded Moth would way in excess of 1,000,000kg.
