I imagine most of these have been posted before, but I figure what the heck. Smile


1) Updated astronomy

While EVE is amazing in the fact that they give us lots of trivial information about planets and stars (mass, volume, rotational speed, etc). Perhaps they could update this to reflect more accurate statistics? (More common binary stars, magnetars, black holes, etc). In the past 10 years we've learned a lot more about the universe, and it would give me a warm fuzzy feeling to see that reflect into EVE.


2) Stellar / Planetary object interaction

I think it would be neat to render planets / stars in realistic sizes, along with gravity attraction?

A more interesting feature would be direct interaction from stars to ships: Stray to close to a star and start taking thermal damage. Cross the event horizon and take 9999999999 dmg.




Thats all I got for now, kinda bored atm hauling. Feel free to add suggestions / flame me for stupidity.

One of my favorite passtimes is to wait at the sun during fleetfights and wait for pods to warp to the sun. If you ruin this for me, there will be consequences....100k worthLol

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Yeah, it's come up many times. I think if they were planning to make EVE space more like real space, it's probably now been abandoned in favor of ship skins or something after the 'refocus'.

Stars don't have event horizons, only black holes do. I think you're referring to the corona.
