HyperDrive Problem

Commander Jake Skyrunner · Jul 30, 2014

Ok, I have just entered hyperspace from Chango dock...... and well, its 6 minutes later, and I am still in hyperspace. I do not want to cancel out of it incase I invoke some back end blacklisting for escaping out the game.... any suggestions? or did they move the planets further away since the new update?

As it stands, I should be somewhere near the center of galaxy by now...

Suggestions welcome, tried putting the drive offline, didnt allow me to do that...

I've had very long hyperspace jumps, they have all eventually ended up with me arriving. Thankfully I had something else to do at the time

I logged a ticket for it yesterday and it is under investigation...

Someone suggested it was a network disconnect from the server during the jump sequence

CTRL - ALT - DEL is your only option

I think one or two of mine were longer, but ctrl-alt-del would have been the logical thing to do. But I was doing more important things such as; making a bacon sandwich and some coffee while reading posts on this forum

I think they just patched that with version Beta 1.1!

I had this as well this afternoon and can say for sure that in my case it was network disconnect shortly after the hyperjump was initialized (as it happened during a time, when suddenly lots of people complained about disconnects)

Why can't the game pop up a warning in such a case? I've seen such error pop-ups in different screenshots...

I bet the servers are overloaded with the influx of new players. Should fix itself when they either expand the server park, or some players lose interest and stop playing until the next update
