Is the universe endless?

To Vi3t:
There is a game that you have to plot courses in 3 dimensions but it's not really a flight sim or rpg. Homeworld. In some ways it's like a 3 dimensional command & conquer.

I know it's off the thread topic, but still...

C+C has nothing on Homeworld. That third dimension is like a whole new genre in and of itself.

I'm STILL waiting for the first game that has different races use different orientations in space...it would be unbelievably awesome.

Well, it's still relevant, so why not?

And 56 hours, 3000 cruise and you hit the next star system? Gonna need proof of that.

ok, 3000 speed, 56 hours...
took, 56 hours, speed 3000m/s, soooo.....
604800000 m apart.
or 604800 km.
by that logic, if i mod the speed system to go at 400000 km/s i should get there in a few secs right?

*checks*

nope.

I once set my cruise engine speed to something absolutely ridiculous, there must have been about 15 zeroes. I start charging up ok, but the moment the engines actually kick in, my ship disappears and a second or so later it crashes. You can't get to another system without a jumpgate or hole.

And your ship starts shaking like crazy the farther you go. eventually, you will explode.

I never had that. One time my ship more or less disappeared because it was shaking so much, but I never had it explode. The game simply crashed when I reached far enough out.
