This game still demans a lot of our time when it comes to moving around in the galaxy, this game needs a multi-jump feature. You should add another option when planning the route, checking "multi-jump" next to the economical feature and fastest. The way it works is, when planning to travel to a System 4 jumps away, first you will jump to Star 1, you see the Star 1 coming closer, Star 1 will pass, and star 2 will start approaching, passing star 2 and star 3 starts approaching, then it passes on the screen and then finally 4 starts showing, and when close enough then you jump out of the hyperspace and end up at destination system which were 4 jumps away. This will still take some time jumping in between the stars, but you can relax more. And you are immune to interdictions anyway when you arrive to a system so there is no harm done in using a system like this.
For those people who don't want a system like this, who want to jump and align in between the jumps, they can just keep the multi-jump unchecked, everybody wins.
What will you do in the meantime? Well same as we doing now, netflix and so on, but you can make this better. Allow people to interact with each other during the travel, chatting and talking, and also allow players to access Galnet, finding missions and other things, also accepting missions or completing missions there as well.
The way this would work by accepting a mission, if you take on a mission that require a cargo, you first get the pick up point, where you pick up the cargo, then deliver it to the station it needs to be delivered to. So cargo would never magically appear in your cargo, the same comes to passanger missions too, all missions that require a physical object to be delivered, it requires a pickup point, and this is the difference between accepting missions in Galnet from deepspace and accepting delivery missions from a station.

, if each takes about 10 seconds, that will be over 3 hours, but it's more than 1000 in economical, its over 20.000 LY and the distance with the closest stars is like 3 or 5 LY, so that will be about 5000 Jumps, and that will take 5000 x 10 = 50.000 Seconds, ~ 14 hours.
