This is a jump gate that I designed that will be a monolithic jump gate. Which allows for Stations and below to pass through it.

Nice concept, but DS gates needs 360 degree access.

As I recall, DS gates are just stabilised WHs. Try keeping that in mind?

What Draf said, and also, it needs an "Om nom nom" sound effect when you go through it.

Unless we make it a sprite.
But that'd be ugly.

or you could take away the 360 degree access

All I had to do is duplicate and basically turn them over so they could have a stable wormhole between. It will allow for 360 Acess and give that awe inspiring look to the game.

That would require a total rewrite of the gate/wormhole code, which I don't think we're keen to do: no real point, and no real gain. Just to make a model seem more logical is hardly a reason.

Its rather plain, don't you think? If you notice the existing gates, especially the ICC, they have floaty panels and spinning bits of wonder. Just having a basic cage doesn't seem that exciting to me. And I'm usually something of a minimalist.

Give me an concept artwork and I could make something that you like to see.
Reason I made it this way, I was thinking of having top and bottom spin opposite directions. Top Counter clock wise and Bottom Clock Wise while the wormhole shines in the middle of them.

Concept Art is basically ideas that are sketched up, I am not good at sketching but designing stuff on the fly.
