overhangs/caves impossible?

"I mean, we don't we won't be supporting caves. Um cuz overhangs aren't possible with our terrain system,"
Oww, I had such a cool idea that would require that to be perfect. (Don't want to talk publicly about it to make it a big surprise.)
So, no caves or arches? Any way around that?

Caves are pretty settled as not happening for a bunch of technical reasons. This section on the wiki has multiple citations for that.

ic, thx. But ... could we make a space ship the size/shape of a planet/asteroid with caves? Could it have gravity? I could do without caves/overhangs, but it would be less perfect.

I think vessels having gravity would qualify as part of "n-body" physics which also is not planned to be part of the game.

Part of terrain system, no. But as assets similar to ground scatter? Only indestructible of course.
