physics Gravitational pull from man made vessels

[MichaelBay]

Since it has been confirmed that we will be able to build, let's call them "Megastructures", like Deathstars or possibly even howl moons, will it be a thing for man made vessels to have a gravitational pull.

Meaning that if some group or coalition actually managed it to construct a space station with ~160km width I don't see a reason why it shouldn't attract small objects.

Would it be to much load for the Servers to calculate the gravitational effects of every Ship, Station, etc?

[My idea of realising that : The implementation of ((6,672*10⁻¹¹m³)/kg*s²)*m*M) / r²  would already give you the gravitational force in N, after that the only thing left to do is to calculate the maximum distance at wich the Ship/Station can affect other Ships/Staions, look what ships are in that sphere of influence and run the formula between them.]

Have a look at Vesta, an asteroid with an average diameter of just over 500km. With that much of solid rock, it has a surface gravity of 0.025G.

Unless they add gravity generator elements of sorts, constructs will most likely not have intrinsic gravity.

I think it would be hard to make this kind of pull
But would be interesting to see if they did make it

Let's talk about this again when people develop the technology to create planets and the first science team puts the prototype of (that's not a) moon together. 

 

That said, I do wish gravity would be part of the physics model. Same as solar storms or gaseous drift. But that's just me having had a look at Starborne's gravity pull concepts.
