Final run in to Beagle point

Hi all,

I'm on the final run in to Beagle point (536ly) and I can't seem to plot a direct route.
I have a decent jump range (36 ly).
Is jumponium mandatory for this final leg?

Thanks in advance

I would hope so or you will be pretty annoyed I reckon. All my systems failed on the last jump to SAG A* for no reason whatsoever and I was about to cry but then logged out and back in and all was ok again.

Then as far as I know you should be able to get to Beagle just fine. IIRC all you needed was 33.4lys, and you've definitely got that covered.

What a let down, even though I have the max jumponium boost of 70 LY still can't find a route, Oh well time to head home I think

No! Why?? Just plot a route as close as you can get to Beagle and jump there manually from the galaxy map.

Edit: I'll clarify. Use the galaxy map and the route plotter to find systems further from you and closer to Beagle that you can jump to. Just keep hitting plan route on each new furthest system. You can definitely hit BP that way.

The final jump to BP is a backwards one I think because of it's distance from the nearest star. Which is why the route plotter won't get there. Plot to a star 1 or 2 jumps away and when you get there then plot to BP.

It takes a bit of legwork. The planner failed for me on Smuggler's Path though I had well over the minimum required, so I ended up finding my own way across the Abyss. You can easily do it, but you'll probably need to plot short hops and look around a bit.

I'm trying to get to the end of the Scutum Centaurus arm at the minute and the route plotter just stinks like an over-ripe cheese wrapped in a rugby player's worn sock wrapped in a dirty nappy out on the fringes. It won't even plot a route where it's drawn the mutter mutter spider web. If I can plot 100ly I'm doing well, it's like that all the way round the edges, just take it slow and you'll get there.

If you turn the lines on and then find the furthest towards BP they go and work back down them to where you are, trying to plot a route each time until it sticks. When you get there rinse and repeat.

In a 30Ly ship just coming past Rendezvous point, will be making the run into beagle this weekend, if you are still stuck on Saturday send me a wave here or in game (same name no space) and we will wing and travel the last stretch together (my 2nd time to BP this trip so I know the way) :)

Congrats on making it Cmdr...

You should look up Corbin Moran who is doing a fly-by school for Educating Ed on 30 June. I think that would be fun to join.
