Regarding the traffic control station...it could be that there are "sub lanes" within the corridor; part of the lane is designated departure, part is designated arrival, and the rest is a safety pad to ensure that collisions don't happen. When the Rebel scum were leaving Scarif, they used all the "sub lanes" to leave...sort of like when there's a mass hurricane evacuation and both sets of lanes on the interstate are used for traffic to get out of the hurricane zone.

That's not shabby. but i don't know how individual ships would be able to calculate the difference between the lanes from across the galaxy when planning a hyperspace jump. maybe it'd be like boats. we use buoys marked red and green for exactly these purposes. i suppose it's possible there are 'buoys' around 'civilized' planets that nav computers can spot... somehow... from super-duper incredibly far away... somehow. i dunno. or maybe the buoys only communicate to with the nave computers once they're closer, and they auto calibrate? but that would mean they can turn or curve course while in hyperspace, which doesn't seem to fit canon. if they could do that, there would never be a reason to do multiple jumps. unless they can only bend the route a tiny bit, and maybe only in the last millionths of a second of hyperspace tracel or something. oooohhh! the transistion time from hyperspace to realspace would be plenty of time for a tiny course bend, and it's kinda sorta plausible that's the only time a hyperspace route could be bent anyway!

Just as importantly, Scarif really only had one route to attack through, which the Empire (and presumably Vader) would have known the location of in advance, so even if a hyperspace route easily wrapped an entire star system, the combination of known location + known minimum distance before jump means that Vader could have just exited hyperspace on the edge of the system, got a quick location update from in-system bouys, and then performed a microjump to land right on top of the rebel flotilla.

@@slavesforging5361 If we know/calculate a given point, then navcomps might automatically add an offset to one side when calculating paths to a planet. Leaving from that point wouldn't automatically use an offset, because you're still in real space (but it's possible that it provides an "optimum departure point" using the offset that you could navigate to, or traffic control in the area would assign you a departure area). This would allow automatic lane "creation", while potentially allowing for overrides or the like to change or remove the offset. In the case of Rogue One, it's possible that they weren't caring about the offset so much on the way out, and the emergency situation had the ISD override the offset on the way in. "My Lord, how close do you wish us to drop out?" "Right down their throats." "Very good, sir. Navigation, plot course to Scarif, zero offset at destination, minimum safe drop out. Commence jump when ready."

I mean, from writing perspective, sacrificing a little consistency in hyperspace, something notoriously inconsistent already, seems perfectly acceptable to establish just how scary this moment actually is for the Rebels. I feel like modern audiences see every "rule of cool" moment as a plot hole now, missing the entire point that it's supposed to feel awesome even if it doesn't make complete sense. As long as it's mostly consistent, it's not that big deal I always just assumed that the ships that got destroyed simply didn't accelerate fast enough to penetrate the shields considering their size, and considering they probably already took some damage from the battle, it was probably no different from getting hit with an asteroid at high speeds. Probably damaged, but not enough to cause any critical damage.

Your take on the Last Jedi scene is exactly how I interpreted it. And the near perfect timing you'd need also helps explain why that maneuver wouldn't be attempted very often. Enter hyperspace too soon and you hit nothing. Wait too long to jump and you simply collide with the other vessel without doing anywhere near as much damage(we'll just ignore somebody else apparently pulling this long shot off again over Endor in TROS). Vader just happened to emerge right in front of those ships as they were preparing to jump but before they were ready so they ended up smacking into the Devastator like bugs on Vader's windshield

@@agonefire that’s actually false, and Ecks even proves it with his really old versus videos where the UNSC easily destroys the Death Star. Here’s how it works: Halo uses almost real life physics for their space combat. Therefore, they usually fight beyond visual range and use radar/instruments/AI to calculate all of its armament. This means their MAC cannons (that travel a significant portion of the speed of light) have virtually infinite range. Star Wars ships fight within visual range, and their sensors do not extend to over 100 km. Basically, Halo ships will always engage Star Wars ships before Star Wars ships even know there is a halo ship there. Additionally, Star Wars uses mainly ray shields, which only deflect laser/plasma based weaponary. Rarely does a ship have strong particle shielding, (the thing that stops physical objects) as seen with Empire Strikes Back, where an ISD was completely destroyed by slow moving asteroids. Now imagine a Tungsten depeleted Uranium round traveling at 40% the speed of light going straight through a Star Destroyers Bridge.

Sure, there might be a security guard inside the unlocked door, but if they thought there was a real or imminent threat, you lock the door. Plus, poor (Imperial) tactics are pretty par for the course in the movies; not scrambling fighters (at least not immediately), not engaging the Rebel Fleet with the Star Destroyers laying in wait around Endor because the Emperor needed to get his Superlaser rocks off, bringing the ships out of hyperspace too close to Hoth, not shooting (or even tractoring) an apparently malfunctioning escape pod over Tatooine... Honestly, the (original) movies make one wonder how the hell the Empire took over the galaxy in the first place.

The Escape Velocity games (top-down, 2D space combat, definitely not inspired by Star Wars at all) had a similar hyperspace mechanic, where you had to be a certain distance from the center of a star system in order to jump away to hyperspace... and sometimes, enemy ships would jump in, exactly where you were trying to escape, rather like the Rogue One scene. Nothing like a Pirate Manticore jumping out of hyperspace at point blank range to your barely-armed merchant Shuttle...

The helmsman on Darth Vader's personal ship would be among the best and brightest in the Imperial Navy, he would have known that the Rebel Fleet was clustered around the shield gate since it was the only way to reach the archives and the precise coordinates for that would have been in his nava computer, if he'd been told the size of the Rebel fleet then he would have been able to guesstimate the size of space around the shield gate the fleet was occupying to within a klick or so, and he definitely been told that a huge Imperial ship was approaching Scariff and from which direction, so he would have known which direction the fleet would be leaving in. He had everything he needed to calculate the optimum place to bring the Devistator out.

I've always thought that the reason gravity fields, from an Interdictor or a real celestial body, yanks a ship out of hyperspace as it does, is less to do with the physics of hyperspace, and more of a safety feature of hyperdrives. A gravity field would pull on a ship as it moves past, causing its course to be altered unpredictably, which could easily have catastrophic results. A much safer and very practical alternative is to simply program the ship to immediately perform a hyperspace exit when it encounters a strong gravity field. As a side note, I wonder what would happen if a ship tried to jump to hyperspace near the edge of a gravity field. My thinking is that if the field is strong and local enough, as say, an Interdictor might cause, there would be an area of space where the gravitational effect goes from strong to negligible. In that gravitational sheer, if one side of a ship was being held by gravity more strongly than the other side, could the hyper-acceleration cause the ship to be torn apart? I kinda want to work that into a story I'm writing.

I believe you are correct, we see examples of them jumping to hyperspace near large gravitational objects, its possible they have a quick disable for military ships or the system is more tolerant but likely leave it on the rest of the time incase. For example in aviation you want your center of lift behind the center of mass to create stability but modern military jets have their center of life in front of the center of mass which makes it impossible for humans to control but computers can interpret human commands & with sensors adjust in real time the controls to keep the plane stable this is for the purposes of leaking fighter jets more maneuverable. It's possible with hyperspace something similar can be done by allowing for jumps within a gravitational well where it is inherently riskier. But they are always at least iutside of the atmosphere if I'm not mistaken, maybe somewhere in an obscure comic there is 1 example an inter-atmospheric hyperspace jump.

That's exactly how it works in proper canon (not disney). In hyperspace you have no contact with the outside world. So if you're running into a gravity well, or a "mass shadow" you have no idea what it actually is. It could be a planet, a moon, an asteroid, a space station, a black hole, anything. All you know is it's creating a gravitational shadow in hyperspace. Hyperdrives are built with hardcoded (see: EXCEEDINGLY difficult to disable and requires special modifications not able to be done on the fly) safeties that will yank a ship out of hyperspace before it gets too far. Without these safeties you'd fly right into whatever object was creating the gravity well as there is no physical thing pulling you out. This was exploited in the attack on Bakura where their ships turned off the safeties and they could penetrate deep into the gravity well and basically exit hyperspace right over the planet, bypassing most of the defenses. But this is extremely dangerous and reckless because one wrong move and you're slamming into the planet, hence why it's almost never done. The modifications needed for the hyperdrive were also expensive and, if memory serves, damaged the hyperdrives as well so another reason it's rarely done.

Well, normally the hyperdrive's safety kicks in well before crashing into an object's mass shadow. However, if you disabled the safeties you could cut much closer to the mass shadow. In Legends this is how Han set the record on the Kessel run, by shaving off those safety margins and flying closer than recommended to mass shadows even for a .5 hyperdrive. So it would totally be in Han's character to pull a similar stunt at Starkiller Base. Poe presumably did the same thing with hyperskipping and the First Order was just playing follow the leader with their tracking tech.

Chew on this one for a bit. Considering the position of the shield gate, it was parked in geo-stationary orbit over Scarif. If you look at the Citadel Tower on the planet it had a huge communication dish. This would probably indicate that they had a "Holonet' transceiver in which comm traffic could be beamed through the shield gate via relay. Cut-scene. Next it shows the Death Star where Grand Moff Tarkin is notified of a rebel incursion and orders Vader to be notified. With that information in hand , any Imperial ship could have exited at or near the same point in proximity to the shield gate and would start tearing into the rebel. Even though the 2 protecting Star Destroyers were neutralized ( which kind of flabbergasts me) and crashed into the shield gate, it wouldn't have mattered since in Imperial ships nearby couild have responded and would have had much a more disastrous end.

2:30 - The Imperial-I class had 60 heavy turbolaser batteries, in addition to the 6 dual heavy turbolaser turrets topside. Why don't we ever see them firing from more than a handful at a time? e.g. in the Devastator scene here, I count 8 firing locations, one in the left-side trench, one halfway back one on the left ventral hull, the two on the nose, the left turret, top ridge, and one right turret. The interior and underside shots seem to be pretty similar. Maybe it'd be too much on-screen glow, but I feel like having the ISD jump in, and unleash a torrent of turbolaser and ion cannon fire works better than seeing ships go down after what looks like just a handful of shots. The Nebulon-B, for example, seems to start exploding after maybe a half-dozen shots. Yes, we can chalk some of that up to the frigate being way out of its weight class, but that'd be made even more apparent if it were completely overwhelmed by far more. You could also have the Profundity taken down by the ISD's ion cannons, while the turbolasers wiped out the rest of the fleet.

One problem with this kind of interpretation of hyperspace travel is that there wouldn't be any point to a navicomputer taking time to calculate travel vectors in a ticking clock scene like escaping Tatooine in Episode IV. If points of hyperspace travel around planets are generally established, stable, and safe in this manner, then ships could pre calculate vectors of travel before even taking off since there wouldn't be much risk of cataclysmic change that could destroy a ship. Rebel ships could even potentially calculate escape vectors in hit-and-fade attacks before an any engagement to remove some of the risk of being shot down by Imperials.

The Devestator scene in Rogue One is glorious. if you pause it, you can see a tiny devastator on screen while rebel ships are turning into beams of light. that means they passed each other through hyperspace, and the only collisions were at regular/sublight speeds. (Which might raise some suggestions/questions about how physics work in hyperspace that they didn't collide there, nor that we've ever heard of ships hitting each other in hyperspace... or have we?) However the destruction of Jedha scene is BS. there's no way for a ship to jump to hyperspace while still in the gravity well of a planet. it's the rare occasion of something being horrifically wrong in star wars, but i suspend my disbelief because it's so cool, and so well done that i don't care. but it is still technically completely wrong. that's the scene people should be talking about. it does not check out.

I agree - while in the shot from space it seems like they were couple hundred km above the ground (which is still WAAAY to close - even for a small craft with excellent Hyperspace engine and Navi computer) - what we actually see from the ground is that they are at best 20-30 km above the ground. The only reason the size of the ship matters to me is actual physics. Force of Gravity between 1 large object and 1 HUGE object is slightly bigger than between 1 small object and 1 HUGE object. Though in reality the difference is so small that the X-wing could jump couple "seconds" earlier than Star Destroyer assuming they start on the surface with same velocity and same everything. Also jumping to hyperspace without lane would be "safer" in smaller vessel, because it's harder to hit something. Then again stronger shields can probably plow through slightly bigger obstacles. Of course HS lanes have to be kept very clean, but I assume speck of dust isn't going to blow either. And with enough distance you'll hit something eventually, unless the whole route is being maintained - AFAIK in EU microjumps of that "rogue" category were at maximum 3 light years.

If Vader had been this capable in Star Wars, he would have led the boarding party onto Princess Leia's ship in the same way he dealt with the rebels in this corridor, instead of sending Stormtroopers first and arriving later only after the danger was eliminated. Since this is only supposed to be minutes later, it shows a extreme change in both ability level and demeanor of Vader's character.

As for the "hyperspace ram" from the 2nd sequel movie, I have always loved the theory that the scanner that allowed the First Order to track the Resistance created a sort of fixed entrance to hyperspace and the ship just sort of squeezed through it with devastating results. Your interpretation makes more sense as a deliberate maneuver. Of course the reality is that it was all bad writing but hey, we can't change what happened. As for the Rogue One scene, the only break in continuity I wonder about is the Tantive IV being on board the Calamarian ship instead of simply nearby to catch the transmission. Kind of throws off the idea that Vader might not KNOW the Tantive IV was the ship that had the plans. In any case, loved the movie!

There was actually a pretty good write up on how high traffic worlds control traffic in the old Star Was rpg by West End Games. In Platt’s Starport Guide (pages 40-46) write up on Kuat, traffic to and from it’s three Starports is funneled through a series of nearby systems. Say you were coming into the passenger port. You would first have to go to either Ulion or Redrish and you’d depart by either Kidir or Drurish. Those four planets act to regulate traffic so that everyone isn’t leaving and arriving one the same vector. With two other starports also using the same arrangement, a total of 12 other planets act as traffic control centers to get into Kuat. I would expect other high traffic world do much the same.

It has been a while since I last read the novelization for Episode 2: Attack of the Clones, but I do believe there was a scene early on where Obi-Wan chastise Anikin because he tried to bring their ship too close to Coruscant. I think the conversation was that the Jedi were suppose to use the normal/further away from the planet entry points while Anikin picked a point that was for emergency/closer to the planet entry points. As for scenes where ships enter or leave hyperspace while in the atmosphere, there was a reference in legends where the gravity well prevented hyperspace travel was a safety feature to prevent hitting a mass shadow. If true, then those ships could have disabled the safety to allow the jumping in atmosphere (at a higher risk of hitting a mass shadow); however, that does not explain why the Rebels never disabled the gravity well safety whenever the Empire deployed an interdiction field.
