1000K barrier - Vladimir - 01-18-2010
There seems to be a barrier in systems at ~1000K range from the center, i.e. usually from sun. Ship comes to it and dies.
So, is there any way of removal for this? I was thinking about buying a Corvo, loading it with food and water and oxygen and getting the hell out of Sirius on conventional drives, and now my feelings are hurt.

Do you even think before you post? It is not viable to have an infinate flight area. That would mean the game would be infinate in size. I'm surprised the maps suppose you being even that far away.

Nighthawk: Uh, do you read what you type before you post? I mean, infinate is not a word i would expect from someone trying to be a smartass.
You see, if you could get your thinking before posting above your surprise you would understand that there is no real difference between 1000K and 100000K. There are no objects there, background is the same, no additional interaction happens and this "INFINITY" you are trying to talk about is just the number in the distance to the star.
The thing that can matter is a type of variable, and that's why i'm asking my question here.
So, in case someone has a real answer, not an "infinate" surprise, well, i'd appreaciate it.
And yes, that also was a joke. You know, humour. It's nice, not like you, Nighthawk. Still, i'd use my initial plan with Corvo and getting far, far away, that could even bring some interesting or at least unusual RP... in case it is possible.

So there is a limit ?
Didn't know about it. The more far I went was 350k away.

i think there is a FL mod out there that lets you fly between the systems (for I.E New York to California)
but it takes AGES.... would be a nice addon tho... like NY-Cali 24 hours on 350m/s cruise.
it should be doable, somehow

Whoa. Good to know. I always won those 'chase the other out of everything' contests. When I was chased I managed to broke my chaser's morale after 5-600k by loudly making tea and breakfast while telling stories of my childhood. And when I took the other role? People just tends to be less patient than me. Now you fueled that patience even more... Who wouldn't want to travel 2000k in cruise for possible 2 million credits?
Does the poor NTF knows abot this? ;)
EDIT:
' Wrote:...NY-Cali 24 hours on 350m/s cruise...Ah Siddy, you made me laugh.

Quote:there is no real difference between 1000K and 100000K.Really? Cause I thought there was 99000 difference between the two. And that's all space that the server has to monitor, regardless of how empty or populated it is, and incase you haven't noticed, this server comes from a game released in 2003 and only supports a single core processor.
You're suggesting we increase the size of every map 100 times just so one person can RP GTFO of Sirius?
