It's always sunny in space (Hyperspace clouds)

Humbug

Just upgraded my old kickstarter pledge to get beta access and one of the first things that struck me (apart from how absolutely stunning the game looks and sounds) was the apparent lack of the old hyperspace clouds that we all know and love.

Tried doing a really extensive forum search but came up with nothing, so could anyone a bit more educated on the matter please inform me what has been said, if anything, on these clouds? Will they eventually be added along with cloud analyzers? It would feel a lot less like Elite without them.

In ther is a complete list for hyperspace and its planned features:

-A residual opening is left, which dissipates over a duration (up to minutes)

Using specialized ship modules a residual opening can be analyzed to determine the exit point of the hyperspace jump

This analysis takes an amount of time
It takes at least as long as the time window for tailgating (so you can’t do both)
It must fully complete before the residual opening dissipates to give a result
Analysis of a miss jump gives the original target as the result, with a probability of a misjump based on how quickly the analysis was started after the jump occured

Thanks for that info! I wasn't really worried they'd omit such an iconical feature, but it's nice to have something concrete to hold on to. I guess I'll bring my space umbrella then. :)
