How did you get those speeds? I’m confused what you did to get your results. Anyways, the results come out to MHS.

That’s a good place to start, I suppose. Although I’m not sure how it fits in with characters expecting to be able to a travel far with sublight ship engines.I interpreted acceleration using G as being the same as in real life.

So, 1 mglt/s is 201.9 g (4240 g divided by 21 mglt/s)
The rest was discovered by finding that:
1 g = 35.3 km/h/s
201.9 g x 35.3 = 7.123 km/h/s
1 mglt/s = 7.123 km/h/s
I then asked Gemini to convert the rest. That's why I asked if the final 3 tables were correct.

Using this method, we discovered the value of 1 MGLT, the unit of speed used by sublight motors for speed.
- 4,948

I was just trying to say that the 783,970 km/h [~~Mach 738] maximum from your table would not allow for travel between systems within a reasonable timeframe.
- 9,132
- 5,579
In other words, traveling between systems is the job of the hyperdrive. I took a few more looks at guides and when the sublight engine is mentioned, it's only said to be used for exiting the atmosphere, space battles, and navigating realspace below the speed of light. Nothing about traveling between systems.
Anyway, from this point on, I'll create a calculation thread later.
I'll just wait for Hagane's current calculation thread to finish.

The only potential problem I could see is that MGLT is supposed to be a linear increase based on the context of the lore, and since the Tantive VI is 80 MGLT already, having it be over 0.99c means that TIE Fighters and X-wings are FTL, even though MGLT is supposed to be sublight speed.

I keep offering to help teach you, you really just need to know how to use an Excel spreadsheet and I think you’re all set from there

I created the OP for the MGLT discussion in a sandbox environment.
Would it be a good idea to post it now?
- 8,632
- 1,818
Can we have the link? And is will be posted as a calc group discussion, right?
- 9,132
- 5,579
There's no way you can see my sandbox; it will be posted there.

I think your translator is broken again
- 9,132

I drafted it in the sandbox, so there's no way you can see it even with a link.
And yes, it will be posted in the discussion forum.

Do you want me to post this now?

STAR WARS: The MGLT problem (Canon)
Hello Well, to begin with, you need to understand what MGLT and Sublight Engine are in Star Wars. Megalight per hour, sometimes referred to as Megalights per hour, or simply as megalight (MGLT or mglt), was a unit used to measure the relative sublight speed of starships in realspace (outer...

Since this applies to Legends as well, I think this should be looked at: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/U...in_and_Obi-Wan_vs_Dooku_on_the_Invisible_HandSTAR WARS: The MGLT problem (Canon)

Although some concepts are the same, it doesn't apply here, since I'm only using Canon equipment.
Therefore, we can't be sure if the measurements are the same or different.
1 MGLT can mean different speeds on Canon.
- 9,132

I mean, both things will only apply if what is accepted is using your MGLT calculation as the best option, since it comes from clone wars.

The Clone Wars TV show is canon to both Disney Canon and Legend though

This might be a good opportunity to knock two birds with one stone as MGLT applies to both, here’s the Legends page on it to refer to Legends equipment: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Megalight

The discussion is already going to get long just with the canon. (lots of scans)
And it's going to be confusing to talk about both things at the same time since it'll be a jumble of canon and legends scans simultaneously. (Besides, I don't have absolutely any legends scans for this discussion)
We'll do that later.
If something is decided, you can even help me make a blog about the MGLT speed of Star Wars spaceships.

You can access Anna’s Archive though, right? I’ll list the sources in question:
- A Guide to the Star Wars Universe
- Star Wars Screen Entertainment
- TIE Fighter: The Official Strategy Guide
- TIE Fighter Collector's CD-ROM: The Official Strategy Guide
- Star Wars: Behind the Magic
- Star Wars: Rogue Squadron: The Official Nintendo Player's Guide
- The Official Star Wars Fact File 11 STA 3-4: Imperial Star Destroyer
- The Official Star Wars Fact File 12 HOM 1-2: Home One
- The Official Star Wars Fact File 13 AWI 1-2: A-Wing Starfighter
And I think we can partition everything for Legends off from Canon, like give it’s own section in the OP, it won’t get jumbled up then, right?

We'll do that later.

I think another problem that should be mentioned in the OP is that in AoTC Anakin flew from Tatooine to Geonosis, which are a parsec away from each other, in a couple of hours, and it’s implied they didn’t use hyperspace (I could be wrong though)

@Phsccarvalho you saw this right?

They probably used hyperdrive; there's pretty much no reason why they wouldn't have.

Maybe research on that just to double check

I think I'll make a small CRT, changing the type 2 immortality (dark side) to only Sith Lords (and adding two more scans) since only they demonstrated it, and those not so deep in the dark side (like the Inquisitors) are said to have limited dark side powers.
Does anyone disagree?

Some things for Vader and another small change.
Hello Dark Side Immortality (Type 2) (The power of the Dark Side of the Sith Lords keeps them alive in an unnatural way, even if they are mortally wounded) This power is already accepted, I'm just going to make 2 modifications. I added 2 more scans to the gallery. I will move this power to...

Would Lego Star Wars III be considered canon or legends in terms of that?
- 9,132
- 5,579
Legends.
Besides being pre-2014, it still has Starkiller in the game.

One thing Hagane (and for others). When the recalculation is complete, we will try to get some tier 6 calculations approved so that the new calculation is not considered outlier.

Well, I'm in the final stretch of the Lego Skywalker saga.
Basically, all that's left is to complete 100% of the Episodes (the normal Lego levels).
Honestly, this is quite tedious because of the challenges in each level. Some are really annoying, making me have to repeat the level more than once.
