Hyperspace jumps take ages

[archie456]

Hi,

I've been playing E for a while now, but in the last day I've noticed a massive increase in the time it takes to do a hyperspace jump - sometimes it can take over a minute or two.

Whats happening? Is it a bug or some issue with the equipment in my ship?

Thanks.

Sounds like the power coupler on your FSD in on its way out, you need to sell it and buy a new one.

Yeah. Tonight is bad. No missions for me then!

This has to do with your connection to the server. If the connection is good and the server isn't overloaded, then the jump will occur quickly. If the server is bogged down, or your pipe is full, it will take longer. The data for the new system has to be looked up and transferred to your pc from the server, and this happens when you start your jump.
