completely unrelated, but does anyone else think that Spacedock is one of the most retarded things ever? how much stuff do they need to have a facility that is so many miles tall? is that all rooms for visitng crews and repair staff? and they just kind of leave the ships stacked up traffic-jam style?
anywho.. yes, good schematic.

Cool! Next, someone has to come up with a simple flash animation with the ships in their respective places as the travel pod moves between them.
Keep in mind also that the odd layout of where the ships are could be because many of them are in motion around the dock. According to the picture above, they could be backing the Excelsior into a berth close to the central core thing, or she could be through the closest space doors (unlikely, as Sulu was half boasting about getting that ship); the Oberth and first Connie are entering or leaving. The second Connie and E-A are in "parking" berths, albeit at odd angles.

But I need Reverend's help for it. I'm not that experienced in creating flash animations.

Then I think we have a problem. We could create 3D-meshes and render a little sequence from different angles then.
(Oh, and do you really think the pod made a 90�-turn? Looked more like a 45�-turn to me. That's the reason my spacedock looks more messed up than yours does. Maybe we should find an answer for this one first before attempting to create the movie sequence. )
[(Second) Edit: the message I originally posted probably should have been sent as a personal message. I have now sent it as such, so I erased it here. This whole post may be deleted, with extreme prejudice.]

Here's a thought. Does anyone think that Spacedock and Drydock should actually swtich names? Spacedock seems more like a drydock (docking ships outside of and protected from space) and Drydock seems more like a Spacedock (docking ships in and not protected from space)

I guess ships shifted positions between then and the end sequence. Not at all a problem, considering we have no real idea of how long it was in between.

hm.. the advice we seem to be constantly giving the monkey boy that he consistently does not take, would be that he should calm the fuck down... oh well.

"Fuck" the Melbourne! It had the 6xxxx registry. We were told that. We've checked images on numerous occasions and found that to be true. Move on. Find something else. Find a woman and "fuck" her. Anything.
