By the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will,
Shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness,
For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger
Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

I think that distance between those Systems is about 1 light year so it would be too long time to go system to system. If you look that Nav-Maps Sirius sector map you will see that the "dot" (which marks one system) is actually Sun or Suns of that system.

It's impossible to fly from system to system. Edge of system goes on forever.
However, it's sometimes useful to go UP.

Actually, in Sigma 13, if you fly far enough off the edge you can "leave" the system; you enter a black void, and when you turn around you can see the whole cloud that is the Sigma 13 system


looks really cool

Nothing.
The game is written so that you CANNOT travel between systems without using JumpGates/JumpHoles.


Careful what you wish... You might just get it.

Post Thu Jun 05, 2003 9:48 am

actually there some hidden bases outside the map.
until you fly to a certain distain from it, you can't see it...

i modified one of the .ini files so i could fly a bit faster then 300, ended up going 990, but it was enough.

when you get closer to the edge of the map there's an invisibile wall, you can't go past it, it just seems as if your still travelling away from stuff, but your not.
yuou just drift sideways whichever way your turned most.

i bet this confuses a lot of people. it sure as hell confused me.

Having Killed my engines on Slave-1 without realizing that sent you into hyperspace mode and then gone to get a Dew I can tell you for a fact that there is NO wall stopping you from leaving a system. However one must remember just how HUGE space is and that you can travel a very long time without finding anything in the Void. When I got back I had over shot my way point by 1467 of what ever the measure lengths are. It was completely black around me and the only way I found my way back was F2ing back on course and reentering hyperspace. It was very cool to watch the system come rushing back up to meet me on my way back.
