Can't Plot Route At All

I agree with the sentiment. I also like to max everything. However, I just want to be able to at least play it on the PC while I wait for them to figure this out and fix it. So, for me, i'll be at least content, temporarily.

Honestly, this is awful. I am fast losing patience with FD.
Go into graphics settings and change this.. set this option to that... all discovered by the users after this mess has been released live.
Where is FD on this?
I truly hate these stupid introduced bugs and their hokey sticking plaster fixes, this isn't a game it's a tech support job.

They are on Easter Holiday.
My Super Sampling is already set to x1.0.
And that's my allotted couple of hours of game time over, ZERO MINUTES spent playing the game, all the time spent tech-supporting a 3 year old game that I used to play regularly.
Real bad FD, real bad.
Tell me, what's my motivation to dip in and out of the game from now on?
What's my motivation to purchase any ingame content if I can't play the game?
I'll come back and play when this is fixed, and that's not me being moody, that's me not able to play the game at all due to this new bug.

For 2 months?
According to earlier posts this has been on their books for 2 months. A fundamental game element. It's well beyond not good enough at this point. So much for me dipping in to play for a couple of hours occasionally, if every iteration is going to break fundamental parts of the game. And you can fan boy me all you want, the reality is FD have proved time and time again that they are able to break the game and not put it back for a considerable length of time. It's not like I'm just kicking off here, 2 years this has been a 'feature' of dealing with FD. It would be nice to drop in and be able to play, to find out that some of the new DLC content is bugged. But no, the DLC all works fine, just the basics of the game are knackered.

For you it's not the resolution issue, I need to change from 4K to 1080 to plot a route, I'm taking a break from the game too convoluted.
I'm playing at 1920x1080p on a straight HD 27" iiyama monitor and still get the map issue. It first appeared in beta 5 for me and carried over to the live version... changing the SS settings did nowt at all apart from briefly. It corrected itself and then reoccurred. I shouldn't be having to faff around with graphics settings that have worked since the last patch. What's next, turn everything to 800x600 just so ED will work?
I've given up playing since the live release as it's way too annoying to continue... I'd be quicker getting my sextant out of the cupboard and consulting a Sailor's almanac than trying to plot a route on the galmap...

Same problem here I thought I was going mad not being able to plot a route. So now I have to drop back to 1080p minecraft graphics add my destimation(s) as bookmarks and return to 4K where I can plot from a bookmark. Oh my what a pain I'll give it a go but that could be a game breaking bug if travelling regularly.
I am still trying to learn the game and couldn't figure out why I couldn't plot anything anymore.
These sort of bugs are potentially game breaking, considering it requires you to find this specific thread from google.
Sigh, guess I won't be playing this for a little bit
The problem exists only above 1920x1080 at the game-engine level.
If you do any of the following, it will break:
If you do any of the following, it will break:
- Increase resolution higher than 1920x1080
- Use Nvidia DSR or AMD VSR at values above 1920x1080
- Use supersampling factor in the game settings that multiply your effective resolution above 1920x1080
- Use independent supersampling in your Oculus/Vive settings
Being fixed in the PC patch that's dropping right this very minute.
Yep!
I read that fix is indeed in the currently-applying patch. Quite happy to read that. Thank you, FDev...now...about that Engineers-Materials Storage? Seriously though...very glad this is being addressed.
Can't wait to get patched-up, and back into the grind to complete my Conda.
Edited to add: UNLESS UPS gets here before i'm patched, with my new ASUS ROG STRIX OC 1080 ti vid card which is out for delivery as I type this, according to UPS...then, i'm afraid this game will be waiting until I pull out the 980ti, and put in the new gaming-goodness vid power.
Thank you...that is all...

sounds like the offset bug. Its been reported and a fix should be on the way Soontm. I saw somewhere that setting supersampling to 1 can help. My version of this bug isn't too bad. The info thing is on the screen and I can click on everything.
still a bug
Ok, Frontier has gotta solve this soon or it will loose players.
This is the case:
- I just bought an ASP Explorer and left my old ship in storage.
- So I swap ships and when I'm inside the ASP I can NOT see ANY system in my navigation window.
- Hence I can not plot a course and had to let a passenger down, leaving her at the station. Decrease of rep etcetera etcetera THAT .
- So I set a filter in my navigation window to see ONLY systems. None there.
- Next step: I swap back to my Viper and check the navigation window... there ya go I see systems and I can plot voyages.
- I swap back to my ASP and I check my navigation window.... NO SYSTEMS.
So devs, this is actually a MAJOR bug and I'm going to ask for a refund very soon unless you fix this.

I have never seen this before, you need to file a ticket with suitable system specs and steps to reproduce.
It sounds as if you are missing a module of some form, but as I've not seen it before I can't guess what that would be.
I'm dealing with the same thing, you can search for systems by name and select them with a mouse. But yeah, it is definitely frustrating
