Restricted Airspace
sorry if this was metioned before, but i've noticed that i can fly in and out every sector i want. Wouldn't it be fun to allso have some restricted airspace like in sectors with millitary outposts or serco skycommand. Only certain people may enter or you can isue special permits to do a delivery or something. Just a thought that came up.
In many ways this exists already. If you have an extremely bad standing with a faction, you will not be able to enter there systems without being chased.
Is that what you mean?

You must be Neutral. Were you Itani, you'd see restricted airspace for about ten seconds after jumping into Serco territory, followed shortly by a big boom.
I think what you mean is restricted space even within friendly nation's space, dependant upon more than standing. This is an interesting concept and could be used to good effect as it would add to the roleplaying elements of gameplay. However only once other aspects of the game have been developed . Most notably it requires a much larger user base, otherwise at this point, it would only succeed in making the universe even more lonely. It would also require an even more structured system than the current one of using faction standing points. For instance front-line sectors could be restricted to those who hold an official 'military' license or role etc. Jump Gates or Wormholes could be restricted to those that are on official government missions etc.
However this is highly speculative, and I dont think it will even make the horizon of things to implement until a lot more important work is done on the game (which this idea demands). I posted this mainly to clarify ArAsH idea rather than support the opinion expressed.

I think he wants places where you can't go at all. Kind of like storms, but you can't even go there, it's blocked off.
Ok, lets clearafy this up a litle bit. It was pretty late when I posted yesterday.
What i meant was, we need some sectors wich are restricted to civilian pilots. I can assume that they don't let you fly over Edwards Airforce base or the likes nowadays with your cesna. Well, this is the same thing I was going to, but then in the game. Like for example Serco Skycommand, wich is the millatary stronghold and commandcenter for them, if I got it right. You can't just allow everybody in there, I mean, what if i was to launch some avalons in it, now that they may come back. I know they won't harm the station, but I'm looking from a rpg point of view, and a nuke going off at your main millitary facility would certainly cause chaos among the ranks. Well this was just one example, but you see, some restricted airspace would realy contribute to realism.

maybe barrack and capital stations have larger no-fire zones
