Almost Perfect
TRADERS v2.6

Ships are expensive! So, why do they slam into outpost / planetary archive and station docking bays like they're nothing important?

This has annoyed me enough to make this mod which should ensure AI Traders now land gently. Hopefully sequenced so that their respective landing gear open in just enough time to land without slamming down onto the pad. :D

It changes settings so that outposts / planetary archives and stations 'feel' much more alive and bustling with activity. There should be a faster turnaround of ships arriving and leaving these locations.

It also changes two settings for Pirate attacks but only effects Outposts / Planetary Archives, so ship hunters will have an easier time rather than having to deal with pesky pirate attacks every few minutes. (If requested i can make a version without this).

Coupled with Almost Perfect Flight these two work well together :)

Here are some of the changes this mod makes in no particular order:

• Minimum circle time before landing is reduced
• Minimum time between outpost landings is reduced
• Try to fill up outposts
• Docking wait distance
• Docking landing time
• Outpost dock approach speed
• Outpost dock approach distance
• Landing tip angle (normal/long)
• Explorer Ship Landing Gear Animation.
• Crashed Ship Damage (optional in lua)
• No Pirate attacks (outposts, archives, optional in lua).
