Re: Remaking Limit Theory - From the ground up

I'm taking a dive into Godot, to create a planet, space station and an asteroid field. If I can fly between them, and have a hit box enabled to say "you're close to x", then I'm happy.

It could be I completely agree with you regarding 4X games and didn't even realize it. :P I know that 4X is "expand, explore, e...

Re: Remaking Limit Theory - From the ground up

Or, you place rail hubs at the solar poles, that way the planets can move and the distance is fairly constant for circular orbits. This sounds like exactly what I proposed in a comment from 2014 (!): warp lanes start at the poles of a planet and curve in arcs above and/or below the plane of the sta...
