    I know the real answer is the writers never thought about it, but I wonder how they are supporting the upper layers.
    Does every building just have an antigravity unit to eliminate the stresses placed on the lower levels?
    If not, you would imagine that at some point the bottom superstructure just collapses under the billions of tons of weight.

      I assumed that is what was meant by a 'layer'; Each layer is a building surface that structures are placed on.
      That doesn't make a difference to what I was saying though (I think, correct me if you know better). Each surface needs to be supported by the superstructure below it for all 5000+ layers.
      Without some type of antigravity, the added weight should eventually cause the lower levels to just give out.

    • @namenull7399
      @namenull7399 Місяць тому +39

      If each layer is basically a shell that surrounds the entire plaint, as long as the shell doesn't break apart under the enormous forces it will just stay in 'orbit'. Each point is being pulled down, but can't fall because it is being supported by the material left and right of it. This continues all the way around the planet and all gravity forces cancel.
      You can then build on this shell. Any pillars between layers would mainly be just to keep layers from rotating or drifting into each other and to provide logistical functions. Unless one of the shells is broken the pillars wouldn't be needed for support.

    What I don't get is, if no one ever goes to the 1st level of coruscant, what happens when building foundations or support beams/pillars deteriorate or are demolished or even consumed by the duracrete slugs? If Coruscant has plate tectonics, what happens when quakes happen and cause structural damage? How does all of that not affect upper levels or the surface level? Wouldn't people have to continually go to the first level and reinforce dilapidated structures to ensure all other levels, including the surface level's integrity. A single mile-wide collapse on the ground level would conceivably cause a collapse of hundreds to thousands of miles of city on the surface level, as well as all levels in between.

    For those wondering, the Taozin is from the book "Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter." Not only a great read but it entwines the near-immediate pre-story to Episode 1. I got my copy signed by Ray Parks(Darth Maul's physical actor, not the voice).
    The Taozin section was maybe the one time (in all the limited Maul history I know) where he was genuinely concerned if he was going to survive, as his weapons and abilities couldn't affect the creature.
    Maul, one of the most brutal, experienced, and effective killers and combatants in the Galactic Republic era, was backpedaling away from this creature. And it makes its home in the underbelly of Coruscant.
    Really makes you wonder what's down there...

    In short, Sharn, but on a world-wide scale. Perhaps the one thing in which Star Wars outdoes 40K, I guess. I wonder how the venerators made it all the way through from orbit to the lower levels though. Considering the weight of each of the levels, each compounded by the ones above it, you'd need some pretty good reinforced architecture and engineering not to have massive hivequakes. Especially considering how little maintenace the lower levels get. i would've expected them to get stuck halfway though or something. And then embedded, with the respective layer being repaired, until the venerator just becomes local feature and part of the city layout.

    The fun storey would be when sometime in the new republic, all of a sudden the limit of building matériels was encountered; and then half the planet collapsed. It’a easy to realise the undercity(however deep that may be) was built with different materials to the new city(most upper levels). The early builders wouldn’t have known the (now) city planet would be built five thousand levels above the surface.
    This is a fun idea as an engineer(that I’m not) in any universe.

When it comes to storytelling, oftentimes the writer(s)/creator(s)/etc. will end up with lots of things in their work that are interesting and have potential, but typically when making a story, you will have something specific in mind you are trying to achieve, and mostly develop or show only the things in your work that are related to that goal.
