3 dimensional systems

[Igiss]

Well, Freelancer Explorer is a 2D program, and though I also like 3D systems (check Delta) creating such system requires alot of hand-editing. Like creating any other system, actually, but... well, FLE will set your Z axis (up/down) to zero each time you move your objects. So if you move something, you'll have to fix Z position each time.

There's also a problem regarding radar, which is 2D. I'm not sure, but if you place a wreck 40k above somewhere, any radar will see it when you come close on the 2D map (I may be mistaken here). This makes placing such wrecks totally unrealistic.

Plus, remember that in real solar systems there's one plane to which planets and most asteroids belong (more or less). There's no way you can make a realistic system without taking this fact into account.
