Quick travel?

It takes forever to go from one end of a system to another, and it takes FOREVER to go from system to system. Like if I want to trade from Hamburg to New Tokyo, it takes 36 way points, at which it requires manual intervention and about 30 minutes of wasted time doing nothing. Is there some type of auto-pilot or time-compression functionality that I'm missing because this really sucks!

Great game nonetheless, it's just if you want to be a trader and not a fighter, you better have a lot of time and a lot of patience

You can combine gaming and other stuff that way. Just pretend you are this ship captain for real: for example take a book/magazine and read it on the way (sure it would be easier if the ship could follow it's waypoints full auto). Or you could check how that Jedi trainee is doing against that little flying orb back in the quarters. Hm... wait... wrong universe! And when you hear "tradelane disrupted", you fire the book into the corner and get ready for combat.

When I get bored flying between jumpgates I just do a little mission in between. After that I take up the route again. Works for me.
