"Sun" refers to only one star, specifically the star that Earth is orbiting. No other.
Asking "where are the other Suns" is like asking "where are the other Jitas".
Except even the devs don't care about this, they call anything a solar system. |

On topic, the light being the same everywhere in the system is obviously our camera drone inputs artificially levelling the light, since we aren't actually physically seeing in EVE anyway but being fed direct neural inputs while in an egg deep inside the ship. So it makes perfect sense that the 'light levels' remain constant anywhere in the system.
What I would love to see is stuff like solar storms that sweep through systems, more likely to happen on grids closer to the sun. So fights directly 'at' the sun would be disrupted by storms a lot, which could have a whole range of effects from straight damage, to growing or shrinking sig radius's, or increasing/decreasing velocities. While fights in the outer regions of a system would be very unlikely to get disrupted by said storms. Asteroid 'belts' should also have particle storms caused by their gravitational influence.
Basically, space should be alive and not just dreary space. |
