Large maps usually have a higher amount of polygons, making it harder for the graphics card to render them.

And what would be rad is if you were to build the deathstar to scale in game AND (here is the kicker) still make it a working vehicle.

Considering the DS is hundreds of kilometers in diameter..


Hell no.

That'd be one hell of a ramming ship though, given the amount of hitpoints and the inability for anything to be able to go around it and not fly out of bounds!

If you flew the DS you would be out of bounds even when you were in bounds.

The DS will be in. No problem, either.

Hint: This is a mod for a game that takes place on a planet 40 000km in diameter, as opposed to the Death Star's 400km. Just think about how that problem was solved, and then apply it to the problem of fitting the Death Star onto the map tongue .
