/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Having extensively played Star Trek Online, that is about the best you can pull in a Galaxy class. Some days I miss my time heading up the USS Turndammit.

They probably have an "evasive maneuvers" button that functions exactly like the close door button on an elevator.

The ship's AI likely does the smartest possible thing in that scenario and all the other inputs are ignored.

Leslie Nielsen crawls out of a Jefferies tube onto the bridge

Those damn tricom badges will transport you into some awkward places:

Whoa, this guy knows a few maneuvers

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 12 points 17 hours ago

He also knows the "listing lazily to the left" maneuver.

Has been bugging me for decades, ever since I first played flight sims as a kid.

I find it hard to believe no one on the bridge ever made vrooooom and zoooooom sounds while in battle.

Lmao i think it fits

[–] teft@lemmy.world 16 points 18 hours ago

I could see Tom Paris doing that in the Delta Flyer since it has physical controls. Same with Travis Mayweather.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Well, it's a perfectly fine way to evade an attack.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

And doing so embiggened his spirit.

[–] rooroo@feddit.org 8 points 17 hours ago

A perfectly cromulent maneuver.

But where is the hidden weeed

In my "Star Trek: Blazin' Bev" universe, she takes the captain's seat seriously. Only sparks up before coming on duty, after her shift ends, or if it's, like, really stressful.
