Thread: Interesting Tatooine observation

I noticed something interesting when I hyperspaced into the Tatooine sector--the planet itself was considerably smaller. Before the CU the planet would fill up your whole field of view, now it is closer in size to Corellia. Not only that, but I noticed that you could actually see the planet moving in relation to your ship while flying around the sector. The effect was subtle but undeniable.


I hope this means the devs intend to make the sectors bigger and make it possible to fly up to the planet, that would be awesome. Or maybe it's just a bug, who knows lol.

Maybe the asteroids were made by blasting chunks of planet into space?

another interesting thing about tatooine, its the only system, so far that I've noticed....kinda sad since I've played JTL since november hehe, its the only system where the cockpits actually reflect space and the stars and the planet even. Its a neat effect.

I just flew into the Kashyyyk sector and...has anyone else noticed how the planet grows larger as you fly towards it? Very cool! I hope the devs go back and redo the other sectors to behave the same way, because little details like this can make a big difference in the experience.
