Whats the size of the stargates? Are they large enough to fit a CSC and then some inside the rings? Or is transportation done by getting close to the stargate?
Which system did the Kuiper Stargate go to?
Few questions about the game.

There's a pic of a phobos chasing a saphire out of a stargate. The phobos easily fits within the gate's rings, and based off of the scale w/ centurions, they should fit quite nicely in there too.Ttech wrote:Whats the size of the stargates?

Otherwise how could worldship-class ships pass through them ?
There is this style which (From what the replies have been is large enough to house a massive ship and then some, however those spinning rings seem quite nasty.
Then there is the Stargate that opens up a portal eg the rings spin then stop and allow a ship through, although I'd personally be leaning to the later as it seems much safer then massive spinning rings.
any good autopilot can dodge the predictably spinning rings, only a worldship sized object would have any trouble.
stopping the massive rings seems like a lot of trouble for one little ship, energy isn't in any short supply, but it could take 10 minutes just to stop.
perhaps the gates can accommodate both methods, only stopping for massive ships? That would explain how they never stop spinning in-game.

Yes, that makes sense, but that means the gates sense incoming ships which considering how advanced it is supposed to be is entirely possible. but I was also talking about those Elysium System gates.

Oh, got it now. Yeah it would be intersting to see Sol and the various early systems obviously they had no actual habitable planets though it could be interesting to have a mission to sol as transport or such, anyway.

Anyways, no, 1.0 is NOT released, and .99c DOES NOT have sol (you'd need to mod in the whole system)
