As previously reported in the open thread:
In station protected areas you take no collision damage but you still crash from microwarping into structures. That’s inconsistent.
To expand on why this is serious and needs fixing: It allows you to MWD into someone in a station protected area and get them criminally flagged and blown up by the police/other players.
Warning: Don’t try this at home, doing this on purpose could/should get you banned.

heheheh “dont try this at home”
but man whats the logic when a ship traveling with 6000 ms speed being imune from coliding a static item with that speed man it doenst fits logicaly litle colitions ok but microwarp is too fast to be able to survive
Microwarp is actually not handled by normal collision rules. Those work up until 700 m/s, and even break sometimes under there. I didn’t do much research into 3D physics engines, but 2D engines can handle much faster stuff without breaking. So with MWD, you crash even though you would survive the collision (extrapolating from known speed/damage values).

That would make a lot of sense. I recall taking a recon to PvP and bumping into a wall at about 700 m/s right after a warp and exploding instantly. It wasn’t fitted to ever go 700 m/s except during microwarps, but collisions at 700 m/s don’t tend to make inties explode. Instantly, anyways.
