[size=18]XTC Safe undocking scripts[/size]

In XTM and XTC there are some ships that have trouble undocking without blowing up while the player is IS. This is due to their sheer size causing them to crash into the station they are undocking from.

There are a few ships that also suffer from this available as mods for TC, and in both cases the simplest way to solve this problem is for the player to order the ship to undock while they are OOS.

We found this spoilt the immersion factor, especially if it was a ship you were flying. Having to get into another ship and to fly OOS just to undock, and then to return to your ship of choice was a real bind.

The safe undocking scripts we created for X3RXTM to solve this have now been ported across to TC. So that everyone can have ships that don't blow up when they undock, we have altered our XTC scripts to work as standalone scripts for everyone to use.

These are very simple scripts that just turn the collision detection off on big ships for a short amount of time when you undock, thus stopping the ship from crashing into the station it is undocking from.

Usage:
Just drop the scripts from the zip file into your scripts folder, and then forget about them. Yep, as simple as that. ;)

(You will need to activate the script editor for these scripts to work. But your running modded anyway right, so what does that matter? :D )

These scripts are a modders resource. If you want to include them in your own mod then you are welcome to do so without having to ask for permission.
