Suggestion: Gravity Wells around Stars and Planets. / within a system.

This way fleets can not warp on Top of Colonies and there is more sub-light travel before combat.
Engaging within a system will be a much bigger commitment.

Speed values would require some adjustments though and pathfinding needs to calculate it.

There is a great mod that adds this for DWU at a system scale. I also find it a bit odd that planets don't have larger fields around them that inhibit warp.

Yes, that would be super fun.

Right now though, the HyperStop feature from DW1 is missing from DW2, though the game data does have entries for it. We can hope that Bacon Mod style gravity wells will be possible again, especially if Harmony modding becomes a thing.
