Hmmm...

In stars, if you have a 300/500 gate, and you select a planet 518.7 (for example) light years away, the display does not say warp9, or warp10, it immeadiately defaults to "use stargate" and does not say "danger."

I have always assumed this is a safe gate, with no damage, and no chance of ship loss.

Are you saying that there will be minimal damage, and that there is a small chance of ship loss?

I usually play IT, so with the any/300 gate, do not have ship weight restrictions. Now, playing with another race, I assumed that there was the same allowance with weight, where you could safely gate a say 303, or 315 kt ship through a 300/500 gate.

I guess I'll have to testbed it. I'll get back to you.
