Anaconda's New Top Jump Range with CG 6A Frame-Shift Drive

Because, as I said, it jumps and does nothing else. I thought it obvious that this was a demonstration of absolute max range, but this being the forum I should have known to put in that disclaimer for you. Clear enough now?

Nah, the (rather unhelpful) facepalm was because you missed some obvious ways to get more range, and one not so obvious

THIS is the one-jump wonder: https://s.orbis.zone/h3b2

Yes, you can fit 4D thrusters on an Anaconda and it works, but you have to engineer them with drive distributors off the conda.

Not a demo of 'absolute' jump range.

Fixed it for you
and it's theoretically possible to get it to this, but you'll have to figure out how to beat the max thruster mass limit.

Although using a D rated powerplant is as facepalm worthy or more, because it's maybe a theoretical way to build a record breaking ship,
but it's utter crap to fly, useless for all but one purpose and you don't win any prices for 0.02 ly more range anyways, no offense to you personally.

It is a face palm because going down a size and A rating is actually less mass and more power. For instance, a 2A is less mass and more power than a 3D.

I wouldn't over-analyse that particular build. It's that extreme that it has no place in the game because all you'd do by building it is test the accuracy of Coriolis or EDSY regarding the numbers. Complete waste of materials and as such it doesn't really matter whether it will do 90 or 91 ly or anything else because it has no practical use anyway.

Previously we were getting mid 80s which meant a working build could be done which would hit mid-late 70s. Now we can hit 90 I imagine a working build is now looking like it would be around the early 80s mark. I'm pretty sure the OP wasn't thinking about joke builds when this thread was started annyway. :LOL:
