Some server (at least Mach3) use modified teleports, which don't have a fixed exit point, they use N/E/S/W (default till R5, will change to random direction in R6).

Reason:
Ripcording tons of large drones (like assault bases) may the crash server with unmodified teleports.
I don't know about this - you can no longer prox teleports this way. It's a significant gameplay change.

It shouldn't be that hard to watch the condition and make sure two ships don't arrive at the same time (not to mention it's probably not a problem right now).

Of course since we have already done this... chances are there won't be any demand for a proper fix anyway...

Imago fixed only one case, no launch points. ;)

OK I see he applied randomization to drones only... and btw his later code spaces out the time of launch for stations with launch joints so looks like a complete fix.
