I seem to remember reading somewhere that shuttleports cannot be placed too close together. Something like 3k is the closest. Is this true? And I mean Player Shuttleports being too close to Main cities, like Theed.

Allow me to re-state: Can I place a shuttleport in our city is the shuttleport is less than 3k from a shuttleport/Starport in THeed?

I have never seen any limitation on a shuttleport distance from another shuttleport.

In a different thread were some folks were arguing that the devs should reduce the shuttleport requirement from city level 4 to something lower, I once mentioned that only if they put a minimum distance requirement in. You may have seen some people mention it, but to the best of my knowledge there is no minimum distance required.

I am allmost sure you can place two shuttle closer than 3k

I would think you can due to there being multiple shuttleports in one city, like mos entha or mos espa... and technically you can fly from one to the other... so I don't see why it would matter...

I would also think you could place them clsoe together too. In fact, I would have ot believe, as I have yet to see any such restricitions, that you can place numerous shuttleports in your town alone. What's to stop someone from droppin an additional Cantina? I know you can place many merchant tents, and I would have to believe that it would be the same for any other city structure. Why you would want two, three, four or more shuttleports is beyond me, but I see no reason why you couldn't if you wanted to!

i would also really like to know about this. i was just told that you have to have a city 5000 meters from another town to be able to place a shuttleport. Is there anyone out there that has a definite answer? We have spent so much time making a well organized city and have about 40 structures placed and would really hate to have to move them because we are 2500m NW of theed.

New Unity, on Test Center, is about 1500m from the edge of Theed, and it has a shuttleport. There is no minimum distance required.

Also, the QA Cities QAville and Leetville between Bestine and Anchorhead are all pretty much just a bit more than 1 km away from each other and the mentioned NPC citys ...

However, I would like to know if you will be able to have more than just 1 shuttle port in a player city ... the 900m a city can spread is pretty far for my taste, I'd like to be able to chose at least north or south ...

Thanks guys, I feel fairly safe in believeing that there is NO minimum-distance thing with shuttleports now.
