Suggestion Let Us Make Dummy Thicc Space Stations

[Rynn Vizsla]

Varin Elatar - Mass-production as a rating would be impossible for stations of that size through the factory, especially with the restrictions we have now. To further clarify what I'm pointing out by mass-production - I'm talking about copy-pasting component lists and slapping together a half-decent paragraph to go along with some neat art. There's no world-building going on there. It's literally nothing more than a "stat-submission." If they're unique - they should be fleshed out with lore. The codex offers that better than the factory can.

So factory is optional, codex is optional but if you want a station larger than 80km you suddenly make codex mandatory. Do you see the problem there?

The only problem I see is that words are being put into my messages to justify a point. I never said that it's mandatory, both the Codex and Factory are optional... until they're not, but that deals with breaking rules and reports.

What I've been saying is that there is an avenue for people to submit massive space stations already, but they don't need the factory to do it.

I've never seen a civilian space station abused in RP. Never heard of anyone wanting to either.

I'm game. Double the cap. See what happens.

Mind you I am on the side of do what you whilst so long as it's fun and doesn't ruin other peoples fun. So in General I say let them be as big as you want there shouldn't be a restriction on size.

I've never seen a civilian space station abused in RP. Never heard of anyone wanting to either.

However this statement is so not true, granted it wasn't here but I can assure you I have and know how to use an unarmed civilian space station as a weapon of mass destruction and carnage. That said though a 80 KM space station is still planet annihilating destructive so size really doesn't matter if someone is going to go on a collision course with the Planets surface.

Basically you can make anything a deadly weapon if you put your mind to it size is most irrelevant especially when you are talking things that can already be 80 KM. I mean a 10km asteroid would cause mass extinctions, 80 km space station would cause near complete extinction of all life on a planet as is.

(I dropped one on Coronet City, Corellia that was about 50 km on Old TGC for anyone curious.)

 

[Jsc]

I stand corrected.

Tegan Starfall apparently enjoys dropping space stations. So uh. I guess, be mindful of that, moving forward.

But uh. Yeah. You can still probably up the cap. At least until T'Cira shows up and starts dropping moons on planets too. Damn. Ya'll girls are really nuts these days. Now we have to start worrying about moon droppers too.

shrugs

Sheesh.

Honestly my biggest question is why? What is unable to be accomplished by a 80km or less Civilian station versus something larger? 80km is pretty massive. Also as you yourself said, civilian space stations are mostly fluff so as a result why would you need the size limitations expanded? You can always just reduce the submission to the outlined limits and if you're wanting something for sheer size, while I'm not personally aware of them, others have pointed out that canon models do exist which as far as I know would be fine to use since they're canon in terms of describing them in RP.

Also, just because a rule has changed does not mean another unrelated rule should be changed. Just my 2 cents.

Indeed, shall we?
