So I...don't have access to dropbox or my stuff for this right now...This is gonna make things a bit hard to be exact. Should we soldier on and just kinda fly by the seat of our pants?
I think continuing might be best, else we'll get too far behind the other missions. But only if you think you can manage it without your notes, of course. We could try to help out by keeping close track of the ship's locations on the wiki if that helps.
If you do wanna move on, my action remains:
"Smooth but unsuspicious looking rock discovered. Take a closer look or keep moving, Miya?"
Unless ordered otherwise, take us in closer to the kidney bean, see if there's anything unusual about it otherwise. Slowly, of course.
((According to pw, we are too far apart somehow to be in contact. So we can't answer that untill we're sure where we are, sorry.))
This is where I have you with some delays for going around things.
The problem may stem from me counting movement in a different way than you, since diagonals on a square grid are a bit iffy.
(y'know pw, this is exactly why I proposed realigning the axis system so we wouldn't have to deal with diagonals and the like -.-
it's still not too late to switch.)
Either way, for a ship on the mainline, his coordinates should always be of the form (2a, a). So, since acceleration along each axis is measured independently, we should always be able to choose to end up at a coordinate like that. Green and blue have the same, but there you need to add or subtract 1 from the y value.
So now, last turn, red and blue were next to each other. 1 turn later, where each had equal speed and acceleration, red is much further ahead than blue even though red had to go around some things (remember red= team micropsia on both maps). So how is that possible? Shouldn't red be lagging behind on blue?
Also, on your map blue is at (12,5) and not (12,3) like you said. Maybe it was just a typo? It'd make more sense then (though still not completely).
If you can track your position, I can do the rest.
Now let me think...

You move in slowly closer to the kidney bean. As you do, sensors pick up a shift in its position. It begins to rotate along its axis, moving quite quickly actually. The gravity it puts out is higher than it should be, though it's still quite small, not even enough to be physically felt.

If you're gonna keep track of it, track however you'd like.
And fix them however you'd like. Doesn't matter as long as you can remember where you ran into things.
((Capgras is Blue Team, right? Since us not being Green Team let us dodge the radioactive space noodle, yes?))
"The trend of finding anomalous space garbage continues."
Keep an eye on the readouts. Anything... anomalous? Aside from the perceived smoothness, of course.
Not only is it rotating but it appears to be moving slightly. But the look of it, it looks as though the entire thing is moving into an orbiting path around the ship.
