Well, if you think about it, we've already "solved" faster-than-light communication ... so a dyson sphere, pfff!!

 

Child's play. :P

 

It's all about thinking outside the universe, afterall.

And how big do you think a STAR is?  lol

 

here is a clue: http://www.suntrek.org/sun-as-a-star/sun-and-earth/comparing-size-sun-and-earth.shtml

in DU is the sun just a little bright dot without any physics. you could cover it with a smal core ... 128 core would be more than enough

but it could change in the future, maybe already very soon in r0.13

It would be easy enough to simulate. Since it is always noon and always high summer, there would be no reason to program a day/night cycle or seasons. It would simply be bright and hot all the time.

You would need the total mass of several star systems to do it... maybe several hundred. And there wouldn't be any way to create gravity on the inner surface unless they add artificial gravity to the game. (Gravitational forces inside a sphere cancel out. Do the math)

 

I suspect the orgs whose planets you were stealing would stop you.

 

Update: OK, I actually looked some stuff up and did the calculations. All of the non-stellar mass of a single system should be enough, so if your org went and found a system and mined all of the planets into non-existence, I guess you could build a Dyson sphere. You still have the gravity problem though.

Ok so is it possible to do Yes

 

Can the game handle it According to how the NQ servers work yes

 

Your problem is not can or if but how as you are only limited by time and reasorces if you have these then I guess you don"t have a problem anymore ;)

  • ah forgot about gravity however to fix this Redacted NDA
