Project SUNDIVER
Has anyone been in a sun? I was thinking of giving it a shot. No, warping 200 000 km away does not count. Problem is that I can not warp there... at least not easily.
So I have to travel in normal space. 200 000 kilometers of it. At 2597 km/s (my top speed at the moment) it¦ll take some 20 to 21 hours.
What will happen? Will I be scorched to a crisp? Have the boys at CCP been lazy and it is just a nice graphic? Have to find out...
Others can help. Bookmarking a position near the sun (at the moment sun of Muvolailen) will shorten the traveltime. If you are warping past the sun of Muvolailen nearer than 183 000 km (about), bookmark it (if you can). Or give me a holler, and you can spend some time travelling trough the void... via my last bookmark. Then you give me your bookmark.
Oh, money and equipment are welcome too. ; )
I¦m doing it in short hops, when I have the time. Simply: bookmarking the place I have gone to and returning when I feel like it.
Sound strange? Life is.
Don¦t get this too seriously...
This will be a looong project.
-Paul.

Eventually you'll be bounced of the star, this will kick you about 300.000 km back into space.
Nothing else happens. -----

Also good for making safespots at strange places...(like, away from a gate into the void away from the sun, nobody will expect you there)

Ive actualy been to 0m from the center ya sure took like 3 DAYS!!! and i even have bookmarks to it too, and if it takes them to prove it sure ill even hand them out for free
here is a picture what it looks like inside of it CLICK HERE TO SEE THE HELL HOLE OF THE CENTER OF THE SUN!!! ANOTHER PIC Look on the very top right corner of pic at the overview
And NO you do not get bounced back, its just as if you were any were in SPACE lol Just like if you go threw PLANETS as well lol Their just 2D GRAPHICS with no PHYSICAL BOUNDRYS!!! ___________________

The very center of a star might make one heck of a safe spot.
And if nothing else if you do get podded in the middle of the sun you may just have bragging rights. Or even better you podded an enemy in the middle of a sun.

Odd, planets, moons and stars used to be objects you could bounce into. -----

I always hoped planets were setup like in Freelancer.

lol, that was so fun in freelancer. in mulitplayer i would 'dive' towards a planet then break off at the last second so the person following me would blow up in the clasic noob fashion ---

i just did it in KDF. a buddy of mine did it and stuck a can about 10km from the center and gave me a BM...bounced off in my rifter about 1000km away. we did the same to a planet in the same system. corpmate in a revelation bounced off of it and took 5 1/2 minutes to slow down

Huh; I have a bookmark to a spot inside a planet. Everything looks normal until you warp out--and past the wall of the planet which suddenly appears! :P
The sun I'd heard bounces you far. But then, I heard the Eve gate will burn you to a crisp, too, but after several hours (and no more secure cans along the way for one hour) I gave up. :P
I too wish there were more--Freelancers' OHHELLI'MBURNINGUPINTHEATMOSPHERE rocked!
Please, make the Wolf blue again!!! |

Edited by: Soporo on 26/12/2006 20:51:21 Didnt Inno get with some dudes who had a special bookmark and somehow bounced around inside a planet or moon? I vaguely recall reading something along those lines in his n00b adventure.

Is it even possible to get to the eve gate? I was just over there to take some screenies and I saw the bright light that is supposedly the gate but to me it just seems like one of thoe nebulas. You cant really get to them as theyre just graphic. Is the eve gate like that too?
