Space edge?

I played starbound for two years now.
But i still wondering, is there an edge of the space map? The map where you see star, do that map have edge or corner?​

 

Nah, it just won't get past certain coordinates

 

I also heard from another guy here that the planet names are strange out of the coordinate zone.

 

I thought it just looped around.

 

We must know. Prepare the ship, we're going to the edge of space.

 

It seems to just keep going, and going, and going.
Starbound's "universe" (oddly made of a single mega-galaxy? A universal star-cluster? hmm) doesn't really seem to end, but it probably has some point where it just stops generating stuff correctly.

 

Nope. It will keep on scrolling.

The navigation menu is limited to inputs of -999,999,999 through 999,999,999 on both the X and Y, but it is possible to scroll manually past that. there is a technical limit to the size of the universe, but we could never realistically reach that.

 

That's what I meant x)
It's quite like Minecraft
Tho, I'm curious if there farlanders x)

 

Minecraft actually has a forced limit of +-30,000,000

 

I know, but I wonder about Starbound

 

I really hope someone is trying right now.

 

so we possibly have a donut shaped universe.

 

atm, yes, but if we culd cross borders (at the range of values) and it would restart on the other side of it, it would be a donut)

 

It wouldn't be a doughnut, since if it did repeat, it would repeat in any direction. Plus, a doughnut is a 3D shape (Torus), and the universe in this game is 2D.

 

back in late alpha to early beta, there were tiered "universes", but it seemed like each tier was a different galaxy instead

other than that, maybe the galaxies fell apart and the solar systems were scattered everywhere

 

This is one of the few old features that I really wish they didn't remove.
If we could.. turn it back on?
Frackin' Universe could use its own "Sector", we could have the "threat-free sector" that was mentioned when talking about adding colonies, the reworked Sector X (which was what the Black Hole Portal at the outpost was supposed to unlock), adding an entire universe of max level planets of all biomes with added tentacle sub-biomes to every world...
Ahh I miss it.

The first release(s?) also had 100 levels of planets (which was cool, if excessive).
They cut it down to 10 levels (I think the game still supports 11 levels, but our gear and planets only go to like.. level 6 right now, iirc) when they removed "Armor Penetration" and added health-that-isn't-exactly-100-always.

 

Oh the good o'l days

 

I went to the edge of the navigation console at X -999999999 Y 999999999 and just put two magnets on my ^ and < keys. I came back after a few hours and all the systems and terrain on planets looked normal. Apparently every race in the game has colonized even the most remote reaches of the universe
