Maybe we were just shown an accelerated clip that demonstrate the capabilities of the engine with the new additions ...MeduSalem wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 12:46 pmSo the background star movement speed would still have to be some inverse-function depending on the distance from Planet 1 & Planet 2, where it feels like the stars almost don't move at all when you are exactly half-way between Planet 1 & Planet 2, and slowly accelerating the closer you get to a planet.
So the initial issue still stands, the stars move too fast when further away from the planet. xD
Maybe something else in the factorio universe can explain this, like some massive body curving so much space time that everything orbits around it making it impossible for the space platform to travel from one planet to another without having a very curvy trajectory around it.
( a black hole 5 stars orbiting around it in the same plane separatated by some egal angle, if the spaceplatform wanted to take a straighter path, it would make it go too close to the black hole.... ? ).
Maybe the game isn't a 100% accurate simulation of interstellar travel... That would be a shame though, that's my number 3 option.
