Are there any neutron stars between Sag A* and Beagle Point?

To answer the title.. yes. Lots of them. But as closer you get to beagle point, the less neutrons you see. I think i did the last 7K to BP without neutrons.

Yes, there's lots of them - but! You need to go outside the 'dead zone' in which there are very few neutron stars, travel 1,000 LY away from the axis (up/down/sideways if you're heading north or south, where north is typically towards Beagle Point). There's a design flaw in Stellar Forge about the neutron star density. See here: (with thanks to EDAstro)

And I thought I was the only one that far behind on DW2. I'm 50 jumps off from WP11 myself and have been lamenting the scarcity of neutron stars.

Good luck commander and hopefully I'll see you at Beagle Point before the 13th!

It's not necessarily a design flaw, it's just the way it is. And the way it is gives us the neutron highway. :)

I recently arrived at Beagle Point, and on my last run (which was around 9500Ly) there were only two neutron stars. I followed the highway out of the core, though, and that cut down the first part of the journey considerably.

Oh yes, I found a very long neutron highway roughly 1000 LY under the galactic plane on my way back to the core, but not close to beagle point. It went through 2 sectors and stopped before entering the core sector. It was so dense that the galaxy map plotter could plot the route for more than 100 jumps putting red dwarves every 4-5 jumps to allow refuel.

:ROFLMAO: I think you missed a Zero

There are 100's of thousands of neutrons after Sag A - Best way to find them is filter map then move up and down till you find the sweet spot :) Normally 500 - 1,000 ly up or down then a thinner line 1,200 - 1,500.

As already mentioned stay off the axis, one cos the the gap and two because everyone has already been there :)

Look at the neutron density picture above and tell me with a straight face this isn't a design flaw 😅

Very cool, I've never seen that map. Thanks for posting.
