An X2 question? Here? Naa!

[ElectricMonk]

All of the screenshots I've seen so far feature all of the jumpgates open permanantly. If the game ships with this feature enabled, will it be possible to nudge objects through a gate, like an asteroid or a factory?

I understand (though I may be mistaken) that it will be possible to move factories - at least, your own) between sectors. Don't know about asteroids though.

are the gates in a n,s,e,w allignment like in the previous X games? or are they moved up and down and in differnet locations? not just 45º turning ship and seein the next gate

There might be still the "broken" gate plus some "secret" ones as well
I don't think the X engine lets objects like already existing stations and asteroids getting pushed through a gate in X2. They are as far as I know permanently fixed in the sector code. This was not possible to do in XTension and as the engine is relatively similar, I don't think so.

But then again, who knows

hmm i take that "might be" as for sure YES
i think you know something but obviously you cant tell us right?
anyways - can you tell us about how much bigger the universe will be ?
i'd like to see hundreds of new sectors
the idea of getting lost in scpace is quite fascinating
if its too hard to do - like too much data for normal computer to handle then why not make some special dimensional portals or something
like leaving the old sectors behind won't let you communicate or get any information from there
heh maybe im just dreaming - just can't wait for the X2 anymore
i want it - no matter how big bad or bugful i just need it
