Newcomer / Intro How to re-enable galactic route?

[DjVortex]

If I select some star system in the galactic map I can make the game create a route to it.

If I then target something else locally, like for example a planet, that galactic route will still exist. However, I don't know to "re-enable" it. Even if I untarget whatever I targeted locally, the next target will not be the next star system in the route. The navigation panel will show that route (ie. the next star system and the final destination star system), but I don't know how to enable it.

I bound a key for that. Works like a charm. Thank you.

Little tip:

Whenever going in to combat always have a route plotted to a nearby system - then on entering the RES or CZ check the destination is not obscured and thus if you ever are in real trouble, retract hardpoints, click "next system in route" and hyperjump out. (You cannot be mass-locked by ships for hyperjump.) I can't tell you how many times that has saved me getting my "donkey" handed to me on a plate.

Or, go to your nav panel and scroll down until you find the squiggly line, select it.
