Can we pleeeease do something with black holes? I'd really like to make them an obstacle or something, something that ships couldnt just fly over.

hmmm...i dont know if you could do anything too interesting as i believe the nebula and asteroid field are hardcoded, and it would have to be like them. i think the best you could do is take one or some of the already coed effects and apply it to a blackhole, maybe at an accelerated rate (eg accelerated damage on movement)

I just want to make it so ships cant go near them. Im not asking that ships would get sucked into them (would be cool though)

I just want them to be an obstacle, really.

couldnt a new blackhole object be made easely then. one that wouldnt allow people to go near it

or how about lower the neaubulae to be right below the black hole that could work

What ship would be stupid enough to fly near one?

Ill answer your question with another question:

how is it that in ESB two SDs going one way almost crash into another going the opposite way? (talking about Han's escape from Hoth. SERIOUSLY, though! THe original trilogy always gets away with that kind of stuff)

yeah, but if you actually watch the scenes where they are chasing Han, they are quite a ways out at the start.

Point is: people do dumb stuff sometimes

they were trying to corner him. with two SD behind and another in front, it makes it a pretty good traps, however, the error that the commanders made was that i think they were too confident.

still, people do dumb stuff. Anyway I just really think we should make black holes impassable, that would mean I could put them close to the battle Twisted Evil

i don't know that that can be done. can it?
