    First off, let me say this game looks extremely promising, and I'm definitely looking forward to whatever it comes out to be.

    So I assume most maps for this game will be a solar system with multiple planets and such. I'm wondering that if you move a moon away from a planet with rockets will that planet's orbit be affected? How awesome would it be if you could somehow move a planet out of it's orbit so eventually it would hit another planet, moon, asteroid belt, or even the sun?

    Imagine two different players on different planets setting up their bases, one player throws off the other player's planet orbit so that it will collide with the sun in about 20 minutes of gameplay time. The player with the messed up orbit would either have to try to fix the planet's orbit or try to eliminate the other team before time runs out. Or maybe even move to another planet.

    I'm just worried that moving planets/moons wouldn't really mess up the rest of the galaxy, when in reality it would. Maybe they are planning on already implementing this stuff and I just haven't heard about it. Kind of a bit of Universe Sandbox if any of you have ever played that game.

    Just my 2 cents.

    There lots of...I'll be nice and call them "Discussions" on orbits.

    Although a lot of opinions are being thrown around as far as I'm aware Uber have confirmed nothing in regards to the movements of the heavens.
    We'll have to wait and see it seems.
