Finding Jump Holes in Uncharted Space...?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Finding Jump Holes in Uncharted Space...?

What is the best method for finding Jump Holes in Uncharted Space???

I'm Trying to find a Jump hole in the Unknown Nomad place you jump to from Omacron Alpha, anyone know if there is more than just the one?

The hard way is to just search. You see a lot more doing it this way. The quick way is to use the Ioncross Charitor editer and click on the map show square. Your choice which you do. Enjoy.

There's only one jump hole to and from unknown. Patrol paths can help reveal jump holes and bases.

There are two easy ways to find jump holes in FL. The first is to open your Nav Map, set it to "Patrol Routes", and look for places where quite a few meet, that's likely to be either a jump hole or a base. The other way is to visit arbiter.de, as it contains maps to every system

also there used to be a list of all the jump hole co-ordinates in the game somewhere on this site, don't know if its still here but u could try searching for it

there are no patroll paths in the Unknown systems.

tell you one thing though, the 2 unknown systems I found sofar leave you with a overwhelming sence of the game being Increadably Incomplete.

which i find a bit agravating...

Use the usual suspects, gas colouds, radiation feilds, patrol zones.

failnig that have a look at the full nav map here and at the MN to give you a clue as to where they lead and this will give you a good indication of where they are.

And if you would rather just know where the hell they are rather than find it yourself, use Ioncross or ask someone on the server either for co-ordinates or to escort you.

Omicron Alpha, sector 4F

And nothing's in there. Apart from a few Nomad ships

Yep, Only a Vast Endless Expanse of Nothingness that gives you a feeling that you arent moving (even at cruse speeds)....& a Endless supply of Nomads to shoot...

& the other one's background graphics makes me dizzy for some reason...

Not a bad system, when you come to think of it

But remember that a base with neutral patrol routes can also have hostiles

You can sometimes buy jumphole locations from people in bars (usually criminals). Also, if someone mentions a jump hole in a rumor then it will be added to your nav map for free! Normally its the bounty hunters that tell you for free, but sometimes you'll strike lucky
