I think so, but why would you want to? Lousy speed, no weapons, no shielding, and most critically, NO SETA! Call the shrink, this guy mad the crossing from the north gate to the trading station without seta... Now he's ranting about jumping something???
Targeting and shooting Reds at every opportunity, and the occasional blue...

you realize that if anything looks funny at that suit you are a dead man right? I died as I went to claim a ship when I hit d by mistake and smeared myself across the hull of my own buster.

lol made my day lol, off topic of smearing maybe a mod is about or could be made to make the space suit faster or atleast 1/2mj shieldBlown wrote:smeared myself across the hull of my own buster.
back on topic i have found that the use of the W A S D keys are much faster than you can go forward lol so i might just have to go head first, and take out the mercury to see if i can make it first

A good way to realise just how really, really big the gates are. When you get close to the Gate in your suit, go to an external view then zoom the camera out - most impressive.
Good luck dodging the traffic.
Flitting about in a vacuum suit reminds me of that Sheridan stunt in the B5 special 'Third Space'.
Watch out for space flies as well.

Space Flies lol only posting this as you had me doubting myself for a moment so I looked it up.Master Mike wrote:space flys,
it would be really easy dodging traffic me thinks cause the AI rarly use the corners of the gates
Flies is the proper plural of fly (as in the insect).
Of course it would only take one to ruin your day. I've been taken out in a Disco with a single 1 mw shield by these critters in X2 so a suit wouldn't stand a chance.
As to why go through a Gate in a suit no doubt because you can. For the sheer insane thrill of it - assumning you have been on the weed, and fuel!
EDIT on dodging depends on your approach direction remember vacuum suits are very slow. Also I can't remember where you appear when you come out the other side - does it correspond to where you entered?

I'd bet some money that you will get sliced in half by an M5
Or flattened against a capital ship by some stray crate or somthing
thanks you for the confidence, but i will let you know whether or not i became mash or a god,
i bet i will make it.
but what i can see happen is getting from argon prime north gate to herrons trading station, calling my pirate buster, then it running me over

There's a load of programs to record when you play games, one is called Fraps i think?
Click Here
EDIT: you can speed up time in a recording AFAIK but i don't do video software so my knowledge is somewhat limited.
