Default Re: Multi Star Real Map, NEED HELP

You know what kind of map would be interesting and a challenge to make? A top-down 2D map representation of 3D space.
I can see a potential problem: stellar manipulation tech. Warp point creation uses the 2D distance between systems to decide how far away you can link from.

I tend to think of the current 2D display to be a flat projection anyway, especially on maps that have warp lines crossing each other.
