So it's a little like Star Wars then (ships cannot fight each other in hyperspace)? I just want to make sure I'm not making any foolish assumptions.  :p

Yep, that is right Martok.  Ships cannot fight in phasespace.  It can be pretty suspensful seeing your whole fleet flying off to launch an assault...and mid-flight seeing an enemy force heading for your planet!@!

Any hope of modding so they knock each other out of the lane and have to fight for the right to pass? ... any?

Wellll actually it might make sense. If space is being bent going one way and then another ship comes along bending it in the other direction and the two waves meet they would partially or completly cancel each other out, causing either the wormhole to collapse or catastrophic destruction :P
