MookMcMook 68 Report post Posted July 25, 2018 Well, if you think about it, we've already "solved" faster-than-light communication ... so a dyson sphere, pfff!! Child's play. It's all about thinking outside the universe, afterall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trendane 13 Report post Posted October 14, 2018 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daphne Jones 158 Report post Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) 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. Edited December 9, 2018 by DaphneJones Updated with better information. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unown006 19 Report post Posted February 10 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
