can anyone tell me what the in game Measurements are for the X-wing in JTL? I've been doing some research and measuring some of the larger ships in JTL using waypoints and have come to a rather bizzare outcome, it appears that both the Nebulon B frigate as well as the Imperial Star destroyer are 60% larger than their commonly stated sizes, the Nebulon B frigate reaches almost 500 meters (cannonically 300), while the Imperial Star Destroyer stretches almost 2600 meters (1600 meters cannonically) if the X-wing's length in space (not the ground, though that might account for some things) is 20 meters than we can shrink ALL space units aproximately 40% and get their proper cannon size which would also allow for more room in Space in general, Space Stations, Asteroids etc would not have to be adjusted, though the debris fields prolly should be. the X-wing's "Proper" length is 12.5 meters and I compared pictures of on screen X-wings and JTL X-Wings looking at the R2 units for differences, and I see that, I would estimate the R2 unit looks around 60% Larger in the Movie X-wing than the JTL X-Wing.

I think he said that the ships in SWG are larger than they are in canon literature, and that we should do something about it. I think.

i sort of understand what he's saying but he got way into it. I think he meant if you scale down the larger ships and the fighters you can fit more on the in-game map

so the good thing is I totally understand what you wrote here and I agree.
but I wouldn't try and ask for more than what we're getting.
space is actually the more important part of this game to me.
