    So, many processes need to be AUTOMATED for a long time, for example:
    Jetpack
    - when the character is IN SPACE, AT YOUR BASE, OR ON THE SHIP (CV) - check the condition - IF the character is in the area of gravity generator - THEN DISABLE THE JETPACK (!)
    When the character left the zone with gravity, for example, left the base and started flying to his ship - THEN JETPACK AUTOMATICALLY ON (!)

    And here an important point is needed - the character can be inside the base, or inside the POI, the player can MANUALLY TURN ON his jetpack, and fly throughout the base - THEN THE JETPACK SHOULD NOT AUTOMATICALLY turn on / off (to avoid conflict situations (!)

    in principle - it should be similar to "flying to the jetpack in creative mode ON THE PLANET" - when the jetpack is ON - the character will fly forever. But when the character touches the surface of the base or the ship with his feet - THEN THE JETPACK TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY (!)

    And also there was an idea - when the character is IN SPACE IN POI - for example, "Trade Station" - there is gravity from the generator (!), so the jetpack will have to turn off automatically ... BUT WHEN the player presses "JUMP" - his jetpack MUST BE ON A SHORT TIME TO MAKE A SMALL JUMP UP (!) ... IF the player presses "Jump" several times - then you need to simulate conditions like in the atmosphere on the planet = the character will jump high, but then fall to the floor (!) - this will allow " jump up to the second floor".

    -------
    With these features - we will have a BETTER AND MORE INTERESTING EXPERIENCE OF MOVING IN SPACE BASES - POI (!) :)

    The problem with that is that the gravity generator range extends past the edge of the POI/CV.

    Look down around your health bar in-game. You'll see the icon that looks like a man with rings around him, that means you're within gravity. You can fly outside of a trade station and it will still be there because the gravity generator is like ~30 blocks in range.

    If you turn off your jetpack while in space but not on the base, you'll get sent flying away. Or if you approach from the top of the base, you'll suddenly "fall" toward it and smack into it and get hurt.
