I was taking a scenic stroll around new eden, when I discovered by moving close to the stars, I was not hauled around in a high radial per second orbit as would be normal.
Therefore, I need to ask the question, Where is the gravity?
because otherwise I can ether conclude that there is none in this universe, Or as to what seems more appropriate as all ships at rest come to a specific pitch, I can say that there is gravity, and ships have to use ballast and hot air to maintain their position.
Therefore, I have to say that we are not in a actual universe, but in an unknown "finite" area where the mechanics, constants and the abilities of us all can be changed at will.

Eve is a fictional fluid universe space submarine game.
Your physics are invalid.

Quit being paranoid, I expect my research is will result in a brand new type of weapon when I get the orbit physics working again. |

The Eve universe operates on different physics than the one we inhabit, the fact that planets neither spin on their axis or orbit their stars should be a bit of a giveaway.

Well no, because the inability to breathe is the other half of what makes up drowning.
You're not drowning whenever you dunk your head underwater, are you?

(more words)
Other games took it all, so EVE does not have gravity. Also why worry about stars and gravity? I find more troubling that all stars look the same from every distance, be it 1 or 80 AU. It's like having a bright firefly splattered on the windshield...

This being one of those questions that queries why something doesn't exist/doesn't function in New Eden as we would expect, it's almost guaranteed to be covered by The Lore... and if it isn't, it's space magic. As it is, I would love to see the day someone's space pixels get dragged, slowly but surely, into the heart of a red giant. If space-magic could only be so kind. |

You're not breathing whenever you dunk your head underwater, are you? Well okay. The term was "respiratory arrest" and I wanted to convey the same idea without sounding like a tool, but respiratory arrest and being unable to breathe are not quite the same thing. So I did end up writing something stupid.

Gravity is in the same place as the lack of air pressure that allowed you NOT to EXPLODE as you "casually strolled" about New Eden. Or...was that IMPLODE?

There is gravity in EVE it is just universal rather than related to object s like stars and planets and always downwards.
The other quirky thing is gravity forces ships and stations to always orient the same way up (you never see a station sideways or upside down relative to your ship) but the gravity is special and does not make the aforementioned objects descend, they in fact float.
NOTE: It would be rather amusing to see the tears if we got gravity and had to manually aim and compensate for drop when firing non laser weapons. |

Yes, this is correct, it's called a video game.

I'm still considering adding gravity. Right now I'm content to watch ships "right" itself after warping. I'll let you know when I get bored and try something else. Like gravity or no suns at all. |
