Route Plotting went to crap

CASE CLOSED! MY SHIP WAS TOO SMALL TO PLOT THAT ROUTE. I bought a Python. PROBLEM SOLVED!

Jesus H Christ Frontier. The latest update doesn't let you plot a route longer than your jump distance! I'm in an Eagle and I can't plot a route 26 ly away!

Was this an intended change??? OMG if it was I can't imagine myself playing this game. I've been sperated from elite for quite some time now and was hoping to jump back in with this update. Now, with route plotting the way it is....I don't even want to bother. I was hoping to build my ship up again and in an eagle, I can't jump further than 6ly. So if a system is 7 ly away, I can't plot a route there!

Fdev, what in the world is going on? I paid money for this! :mad:

Same problems here - though I found turning Supersampling down from 2.0 to 1.5 or lower moves the system "tag" back onto the screen where it can be seen.
I also am finding it extremely difficult if not outright impossible to simply click and select a star on the Gal Map, where before the Gal Map simply worked.

From what I have read here on the forums (so just a guess on my part) but this issue seems to be a bug caused by Supersampling

Try turning it off (to 0) and see if that helps as a workaround until FD fix the issue.

Seems to be more of a resolution bug.

I'm just about to fly out there, but your range is only 6.17LY, it's likely you can barely jump anywhere... you're probably locked in a bubble with a range that low.

Just picked up a Python. Yup. that's what it was. boy am I feeling dumb. its been so long since i was in a ship with a range that small.

But only if all jumps required are within your ship's range, ie no single jump is greater than, say, 15LY. i think I'm not explaining this very well, and it's also probably not the issue.

you were absolutely right.

OK, eyeballing it before I fly there, here's your problem.

With a max range of 6.17LY (according to your video) you've probably only got the range from V774 Herculis to reach any of the following:
LTT 15449, Ross 709 and Granthaimi.

Everything else from any of those systems looks greater than 6.17LY. That's why you can't plot a route anywhere.

Mystery solved!
