GALMAP Frustrations

[Lord_Itchybum]

Don't know if anyone else is having the same problems but today I simply cannot plot a route in the galaxy core. I am currently about 200-300 LY from Sag A and can only plot single jumps. If I try to plot a jump of 40LY which would be 2 jumps it's just sitting and thinking for 10-15 minutes before I get frustrated and log out to try again.

Seriously FD, you guys need to sort it out in the next update or two. The game is nearly impossible to use like this.

Sincerely,

Frustrated.

There is also a lot of good stuff buried in the Buckyball Run A thread - keywords to look for are magic number and instaplot

What's your maximum jump range? I can have a go at best guessing your magic number if you want.

That would be great. It's 32.42LY. How I managed to get to the core in the first place is beyond me.

994.5 ly is your max range number based upon my method. I think 992 may work for longer as you leave the core but this is subject to all sorts of weird stuff...it should be within 2 or 3 light years of this.

I found killing the ED Client and restarting was quicker than waiting for a bad plot to work...

Hope it helps

I'll be trying this out later this afternoon. I've only just crawled out of bed and the kids demand my attention.
