They are bigger on the inside as they use dimensional shrinkage technology.

I really try not to think of it.

But the stations in this game are too small in comparison to the ships that are coming out of them.


Why?

Try harder.

I agree Stations should be scaled correctly... They need to be much larger. CCP fix this pls looks crappy.

So does your face.

Eve is full of planck containers, that are bigger on the inside than the outside, the stations are the same. That's why you cant put one cargo container inside another if assembled.

Medium Secure Container Capacity 390m3, volume 325m3 assembled, 33m3 packaged. I haven't read anything specific saying that this applies to stations so if it's anything it's only extrapolated lore because the containers do exist.

Aaaaaactually, according to lore, the stations are too big imo. For example, if you read up on the development of the Titans (like all the cool kids do), then the lore states that building the first titans (ships probably on the same scale as today's titans @ approx 15 km in length) put so much strain on the resources of the empires that they nearly depleted their resources in doing so (even the mighty Amarr empire). So if this is true, then how can there be so many massive stations per system? Scale is a problem for Lore, but if you are developing a game like EVE, scale and accurate perception has to make way for game mechanics.

Is that a joke or the actual lore reason?

Because Jove.

We have huge ships, stations should be larger than what they are right now.

Why?

CCP should hold a design a station competition where players can submit their own player design's.

I see stations which have 10-50km diameter - like huge megalopolises on present Earth. Considering they are 3D structures (unlike flat 2D cities) their population could be in hundreds of millions. Can't call these "small".

It's Pixels? ^_^

Limit the amount m-¦ a Station can handle like, Mass and WH.

I would love to see what would happens in Jita.

The amusing thing is some supercarriers look like they could fit.

On the other hand, vertical ships like the Naflgar definitely look like they can't dock in their standard position. Which they can undock in, somehow.

"Small" is a relative term. Those big caldari stations (like Jita 4-4) are hundreds of cubic kilometres in volume.

It seems like CCP could easily squash these threads by simply changing all station models to blue Police Boxes.

The stations are actually massive. Try zooming out, you'll see that the station is a significant fraction of the size of the moon it's orbiting. Now imagine something the size of that station orbiting our moon.

Yeah.
