Ok, is this mad?
- Thread starter dementia
- Start date
When/where did he say this?
Anyway, the last video I saw shows someone approaching a navigation marker in space with nothing there. He flies around it to no avail...I can't remember whether he bothered to try jumping out of SC or not, but hey.
You can get to the location of other system using supercruise, there have been several people who have posted videos.
The problem is the system and its mass aren't there.
They get loaded during hyperspace.
I like how you wanted to argue with us saying it really isn't possible when there is, again, a long thread of people complaining about it with a video, just because "DB" said it would be possible. You should realize the game isn't complete yet and has many bugs still. It really behooves people to read and search before posting.. it really really does and I don't know why people refuse to do so.
The reservoir seems to be 0.5t so you should be able to refill it from a 16t tank 32 times.
The ship displays your fuel usage in the cockpit. My Asp uses 0.76/hour in super cruise, 42 hours on a full tank, so that's 42*2001c/8760 equals 9.59 ly max range. Of course if there's no star at the destination you're screwed...
I've tried flying out from a system, left it going for a couple hours. The game doesn't even update your position in the galaxy map, always precisely on the biggest star.
Good grief! Has everyone lost their sense of humour!? I accept the game does cater for SC between star systems but I'm still going to do it because I want to see for myself in the spirit of exploration.
Anonymous forums really do bring out the worst in people. It's quite sad and I pity those perpetrators (you know who you are).

Go for it!
It was intended for SC to be possible between systems but it wasn't put in for release due to priorities - we weren't sure if the fuel mechanic would make it possible anyway and there were issues like, when do you re-draw the skybox and what happens if more than one player is near the midway point.
But I think it is still considered a bug that you cannot do this but just a really low priority one. So the more people who run up against it the sooner it might be fixed.
