In addition, tight turns may induce its' own problems for those spawning on the carrier during a course alteration.
How do I become a commander
Buddy Spike Discord has a #commander-applications channel. Periodically applications are open. Commanders are chosen by the community votes. 15 up-votes or more (without any downvote) warrant for a commander role added for the unique player ID. More details are found in the BS Discord.
