To Colonia without a Fuel Scoop Challenge
- Thread starter Alex Brentnall
- Start date
Current System: Boeph WA-E d12-586
Distance from Sol: 18,705 LY
Distance to Colonia: 3,328 LY
Current fuel: 157 T
Fuel used: 339 T
Number of jumps: 4,673
Estimated number of jumps remaining: 833

It's starting to feel like I'm on the final stretch now as I can see the Colonia nebula if I fly away from the local star!

Is this what happens when spacemadness kicks in? Im pretty sure it is D:
Didn't post an update yesterday so here's the situation as of last night:
Current System: Dryooe Flyou WS-T d3-2164
Distance from Sol: 20,639 LY
Distance to Colonia: 1,382 LY
Current fuel: 132 T
Fuel used: 364 T
Number of jumps: 5,165
Estimated number of jumps remaining: 346
Actual distance travelled: 29,344 LY
Should make it today. But before I do so, I need to hop into the beta and practice docking the Conda - I've not docked it manually for months and I'm rather wishing I had brought my shields along. Too late to turn back now

I've only just discovered this thread and the epic voyage of Commander Allitnil [woah]
I'm staggered how you worked it out and committed to so many jumps per day, yet still manage to keep in touch with everyone here !
I offer you rep ahead of your arrival, Commander, as the rep explosion at that moment will be so intense it may break the internet !
You aren't arriving in Open are you? I mean ..... you know ..... there's sharks allegedly circling for the CCN arrivals, but they have escorts :O

Got to within 1,000 LY just before the server restart so naturally I plotted a route to the end - 348 jumps in eco mode (all star types selected, would take forever to plot it with restricted classes) or 31 in fast mode. And I could do all 31 jumps with the remaining fuel!
Now back to 100 LY plots of just A or F stars and waiting a minute for each plot to complete.... Should be about 250 jumps total.

No worries, I'll be in Fleetcom from now on unless I start getting matchmaker errors.

Don't you dare crash it at the end
Tried to join you today outside Colonia nebula but couldn't maintain your jump rate. Amazing feat. Fly safe!.

First thing I did was to sell the extra tanksRefuel and back to the bubble the same way?
