mayday! MY Apodis

I'm trapped in the plume of a neutron star, systems failing with 70million in uncashed exploration data. How do i target a system directly ahead of me to hyperspace out?
 
You have to pray you're already facing in the direction of the system you're trying to escape to.

If you crashed into the coroea of a star on a Jump just don't target anything and engage SC. Game will give you an escape vector to angle for. Better then trying to spool up for a High Wake which will definitely burn you to ash.
 
My ship has been destroyed - and while I can understand the mechanic of losing data, wouldn't it make sense to eject a scoopable item that would restore data when collected from the system that you were destroyed in?

But luckily all your engineered modules and 1000 units of materials are all fine.

IKR.

There are so much senseless in this game, but this game is designed that way

Well then, good luck with scooping a data pod from the inside of a Neutron Star's plume :p

Quite apart from the small problem of finding it in the first place - and being the first one to find it.

I agree with this idea - a beacon is ejected that an be recovered much like a black box mission...

Obviously, someone else could find it and cash it in too ... :p
 
I thought it was general knowledge that the more you have to lose, the higher is the chance of losing it.

If I had 70mil worth of data, the last place I'd go is into the plume of a neutron star. That's even more risky than dropping into a non-human USS and popping a few shots at the Thargoid to see what will happen, or dropping in to a RES to see if your friend is there, when you're on you way to the station to sell the 500T of meta alloys in your hold.
