With news and gameplay ramping up, a dedicated thread makes sense.They are absolutely working on local physics grids to improve them and make them more realistic. Whether or not they make it to where if you slam into a "wall" the guy standing behind you ends up a clobbered mess in front of you or goes straight through the glass, I have no clue. Would be funny as hell. However, I have seen and heard them talk about catastrophic hull damage creating situations where atmosphere is suddenly vented out of the ship and how that might send a player character or NPC out into space as well.
I really don't know much about Star Citizen. Heard tidbits about the controversy but the gamescom 2015 demo was my first real introduction. That got me pumped and the imagine trailer got me super hyped. Bought the Aurora package that holiday mostly as a cheap pre-order.
One thing I hope changes is the local physics grid. Everyone else loves it but for me it's near game breaking how physics don't work inside ships. The pilot could be blacking out from g forces yet a player behind them can jump normally.
I want the insides of ships to feel like they are actually moving. If the pilot rams into a wall, things inside should fly forward.
No clue if this is planned
