Escape Vector

[Togg]

i'm currently 70km from Azeban city. pointed near my destination (one of the outer areas) i'm looking at a blank sky and the escape vector wants me to turn 180 degrees around to SC out.

I hope this gets sorted soon as its a PITA

Amen brother! Jumped a few times directly into a station. Weird but, probably looked cool to anyone near enough to see.

Nothing quite like warping out straight at the station...yeah, that's much better than open space. If only a few people could plan this, and video the result.

I hope you have logged it as a bug?

I just had a vision of driving at speed through a swarm of bugs, with them splatting on the windscreen, although this time, lots of ships splatting against the side of a station.

We could plan this, a group of peeps, maybe using free Sidewinders, all parking say 10,000 km away from the station, all setting off at the same time, trying to get as close as possible. Meanwhile someone else recording the video

Yeah, the escape vector seems nonsensical. And when you'd really need it ie jumping out of the extraction zone, you can go where you want.

Is it a bug? Or is there some logical explanation.

Mmmm, is broken. Every single time it's appeared for me, it's made me back track into mass lock just to send me back to where I already was mass free...
