Serious help needed from Extreme Veteran Explorers

I want to find a way out of the void. I've been flying in circles for 3 weeks trying to get through to beagle point.

The ability to bookmark stars can't come soon enough.

HHGTG always has the right thing to say.
 
The way out is as follows. If you focus you can do this.

1. Open system map.
2. Set to 'Map'
3. Remove the check boxes from all but the top seven star types. Don't look too hard at them.
4. Zoom out
5. Plot a course roughly 997 light years in the direction of WP21
6. Make the first jump.
7. Rejoice at the occasional neutron star or black hole you drop across
8. Rejoice when you have done 20 jumps without a neutron or black hole. You are cured.

Yes I did something similar to this. Great advice!

Rejoice one and all it has now been 137 jumps since my last black hole :)
 


HAHA, Yes I had to admit that I was powerless over black holes and that my plotting was unmanageable, then I had to believe that Commanders greater than myself could restore me to sanity.

I made a decision to turn my plotting over to the care of others and now my life is much better.

Don't worry, I have a searching and fearless inventory of all the black holes that I have scanned, and I will admit it to Universal Cartographics as soon as I am back in the bubble!

A reply from The Thin White Duke himself, my life is complete!!!
 
Why fight the madness?
Do you have to be somewhere in a hurry?
Give in to your impulses, rejoice at the sight of those big lenses in the sky and be happy with your collection of gravitational oddities!
 
Did anyone else replying to this suffer a moment of existential uncertainty?

Am I a veteran?

Have I ever explored in an extreme manner?

Do I, in fact, qualify to post in this thread?




Am I spending too long listening to 4-3-2-1......?

Ooh Shiny!
 
No one mention he has to come back this way..... Okay? Keep quiet about coming back this way. We do NOT want him to know that he will need to come back this way.

Yes I am aware on the way back I may pass through another Black Hole Field. Yes I am comfortable with that and also with my most likely response to said event.

I have to be in BP, by April 2nd, for a HISTORICAL GAMING EVENT! Post BP I see myself falling back in to and embracing my black hole madness on the quest for my ultimate goal: A procedural generated black hole with more mass than The Great Annihilator.

I spit out my coffee when I read this +1 here since I can't rep you again so so soon.
