    simple question ^

    I had a lot of these and was about to invade a planet when they would not move though the teleporter. kinda disheartening :/

    Ah! I was just wondering this actually. Good point, it'd be sensible if they could.

    yes i know that too. :p 怪獣 - are the japanese kanji. 怪 (かい) kai meaning mystery/suspicious and 獣 (じゅう) Juu meaning beast/animal. together meaning mysterious beast / monster. applied typically to godzilla type films and other media. but that is off topic

    Whilst we're at it, why not let air through as well? They'd look pretty cool coming down from the Helios.

    that would defeat most of the need for interplanetary fighters, though I would be up to seeing it tested in PTE.

    Air via gate would be too op, due to danger of allowing it to build up to a critical mass before sending it through for a snipe. Land forces are slow enough to permit a counter. I think there is good reason not to allow air via gates.

    That hover destroyer on the other hand should be allowed imo. I'd also be up for t1 naval factory being able to build the hover tank :)

    If you look closely, the Kaiju even looks a bit like a see monster.

    Well, that's one of the rare occasions where someones oversight might me smile so broad.

    I suggested this a while back. A barrel roll as they went through would be a nice feature.

    Oh no... the hottest topic on the Star Citizen forums has spilled over :p (the devs included an axial roll in the tutorial and initially had the instructor refer to it as a 'barrel roll'.... oh the outrage lol).

    I am now super excited. Now I don't have to mod it. It is just a single line change anyway haha.

    Agreed 100%, discovered this yesterday.

    I'll hijack this thread for some more stuff though:

    - Ares and Atlas can already be built over water by orbital fabbers, why do you hate naval fabbers uber? Uber plz.
    - Now that Lob sets the precedent for it can we finally have water-hovering unti cannons? There's no reason that shouldn't be the case is there?
