That is an interesting concept that I'll have to explore.

oh heh, I made one of these earlier today, but I didn't search for this one till now.. Neat! :D I kinda like your's better.. heh

Ever think about using something like this, to launch automated cargo a long distance, and catch it with another gravity system? Think that's gonna be impossible? XD

Yeah, I know most of that thus far. I like to play arround a bit, though not as much as some of the other people I've seen.

Yea you can build a ship using merge block out side the gravity well them disengage them, then slowly apply the break. The round will move forward into the gravity well and them accelarate to max speed.

Ya know I just thought, with the new merge system one could make a bitchen disposable grav drive that could even be used for both transportation and demolition. This could make the warhead idea even better!

Well, I've worked out a pretty stable one on my own. I'll be posting the ship sometime soon; it's called the Jaeger.

I'll see if I can wip one up as a prototype. I've had limited sucess with them. But I'll see what I can do.

Hey, High Ground, do you have any suggestions on making a stable gravity drive?

Check out the Mk 2 Gravity launch system I've made, it can handle larger ships plus its half the lenght of the orginial Also it was build in station mode.

This is even better now that we have merg blocks.
