FSD operating beyond safety limits.

Recently I have been getting random messages saying my FSD is operating beyond safety limits, it can happen any time and I can see no reason why.

One time when it said it my whole ship wobbled from side to side and scared the smeg out of me.

Is this a bug or what is it?

My FSD is A spec grade 5 engineered and mass manager special.
 
If you fly through a white dwarf/neutron star jet, you can supercharge your FSD (increases the range for the next jump by.... i forget the factors). You get that warning during the charging bit, if you spend long enough in the jet (you get thrown about a bit so it's a little tricky) you'll get a message saying FSD supercharged...
 
You were travelling through a neutron star or white dwarf "cone". This can supercharge your fsd. careful doing it as if you mess up by going too deep, you'll be looking at a debut screen.

No where near any strange stars it happens anytime in and out of frameshift, the time it wobbled I was at a nav beacon moving off getting ready to frameshift.
 
Your ship is due for its 10,000 LY service. Book yourself in at any Faulcon deLacy approved service centre so that our skilled technicians can walk round your ship, kick the landing skids a couple of times and say 'Gonna cost you that mate. Can't get the parts you see'

Seriously though, bug report.
 
You'll get that message when you're in a system with a White Dwarf. You don't need to be near the star. Just visit Sirius and you'll hear it over an over while in SC.

It's a long standing bug.

Ah, nice one. Sirius is exactly what I had in mind.[yesnod]
 
I used to get this message cruising through neutron systems all the time, but after 3.3 dropped, I was in Sirius system, got the message, "ho hum" I thought to myself, then, WHACK, my ship was jolted as you describe and that got my attention. No harm done, but it was interesting. Might be a new "feature"?

Interesting...
If anybody gets this in Sirius or wherever, might be an idea to check your fsd for damage?:S
 
I used to get this at totally random times, even when there were no cones in the system I was in. I haven't got it recently, but I'm pretty sure it's a bug.
