Hi all.
I'm new here and from Denmark. I work in the royal danish air force as a sysadmin, but that's beside the point. I've played Wing Commander a lot in my early days and read the books several times. But I haven't played nor read in recent years.
I have a project I'm working on, a simulator of star systems with stars, planets, moons and space crafts and I want to make my simulator as realistic as possible and conform as much to the game and books as possible.
My question for you guys is about jump points from the games and books. I can't recall ever reading that jump points change location over time like orbiting a planet or star. But would a jump point stay in the same place all the time? What would then happen if a planet passes over a jump point while a carrier was jumping through? At least according to the Wing Commander universe. What is your thoughts on that subject?
I also recall a star system with mini jumps. That is jumps within the same star system. How common could that be in the Wing Commander universe?
Kind regards
