Suggestion for challenge: Living in 4g/at Void. I currently have a base at Void. I can find no bp for a miner that functions here, had to build one myself. Also how do you design a ship to attack NPC or player bases in 4g without falling to the ground. Lastly special attention is needed for a base in 4g, since players will not be able to jump or jetpack, so special emphasis on easy enterance and exit. Lotsa cool projects for this... Zero-G is easy...try 4G I even had to make a ramp at my base to step out of HV since I break my legs on exit. There is also medical facilities everywhere, since every bump in the floor can mean death Makes you appreciate some the hardship people living with disabilities goes through.
For every 1g you need 10m/s thrust. If you want a miner in 4g hv would be a waste of time. Build a very large plastic sv i would go with 70 to 80 m/s thrust on downward and forward thrust to be used well in 4g. Most people don't dealibg with these world until they have progress so far there not going to mibe their its not efficient and its nothing about a 4g world that makes it worth the cost.
No point in visiting them any more since asteroids became much easier to find. Planetary resources are generally too small and involve far too much very slow flying around to even bother visiting except to go and trash the place because its there. IMHO nascent moon (that used to often be around a high G world) were more fun for a place to go and trash. Ramps/steps seem buggy in higher G - not the struggle to get up them (though even in 1g they feel just wrong), but rather then endless sliding down them. Also there is the fun and games you get when you have some blocks down to ground level - elevator - ladder and worse, try to auto-level. Often by the time you have found a place to land that is flat enough to land level so you do get stuck in elevator blocks, you could have probably found and mined out several asteroids. Fix bugs, enlarge resources make them worth visiting, then maybe worth some challenge work.
