Do you / your ship get heat damage from flying too close to a star nowadays?

 

Do you / your ship get heat damage from flying too close to a star nowadays?

Sometime when I played in 2007-2009, I conducted a (time-wasting) experiment - what if I fly my ship into a star? Will it suffer heat damage and melt? I flew into the center of a star and a whole Lotta nothing happened. The graphics looked a little weird once I flew inside the star, but nothing extra interesting.

When I asked help chat why doesn't my ship suffer heat damage from flying into the center of a star, I was accused of being "obtuse" and another user said "kanarue... blocked." How did such an innocent question offend anybody back then? Besides, I was pretty young and still in school back then anyway, so I didn't know better yet.

I know now that heat damage from flying into a star wasn't an implemented feature by CCP devs yet.

But is heat damage from flying close to a star a thing now in 2025's EVE? Is anything different today about flying close to or into a star from doing so in the late 2000s?

Or does the same unexciting non-events happen if I were to come back to EVE in 2025 and try that again?

Nowadays you cannot warp to a bookmark inside planets and suns anymore, but you can still fly there without issues.

Which is a problem in itself when people can fly to places others cannot warp.

If you ask me CCP should add some "your ship burned/crashed" message and a kill mail when you get too close while not in warp.
