Hi, I've got kind of an odd question. I am looking for the distances
between planets or the distance from a center point possibily the deep
core. From my reading I believe that the diameter is 120,000ly and I used
that as a basis for my calculations so far. I am writing a program and
these would help out a lot as I really don't want to guess. I have tried
wiki and google. http://theforce.net had some greats stuff on converting
to different units and whatnot but not distances. I have also looked at a
ton of maps but none are to scale and none show what I need. I don't need
every planet just the major ones. If anyone has a link to this info. a
book, or something else I can use it would be greatful. Thanks

There is no official map, so anything you use will be guesswork by
someone. The closest you'll probably get is the map in the front of
some of the paperback novels, but they don't have distances.
You might get some unofficial distances from some of the role playing
games (table-top or online).
