Stupid me, I imagined a separate team of nav. beacon layers...

So... who laid all the .nav beacons?

That makes perfect sense since how would you get to a system for the first time to set up a nav beacon.
That being said, you should be able to hyper jump to any star in a system. Currently you can only hyper jump to the primary star that has a nav beacon and then have to resort to SC for secondary, tertiary stars etc..
It would make it easier if you could choose the star, esp if there are no technical reasons not to do so. If the nav beacons have zero to do with jump markers, then let's allow jumping to any star in a system. It would save a bunch of time to get to some stations like the Hutton Orbital which is .22 LY from the nav point and takes 40 min in SC to get there so I hear.

And that's assuming no traffic slowdowns, meal breaks, bathroom stops, sleep, etc...
Oh, and the occasional misfortune of jumping into a system and coming out between a pair of close orbiting neutron stars. That can really ruin your day.

I know right!! Had that happen to me and being pulled out of a jump like that gets your blood boiling!
...and here people can barely deal with those tame little Ghost Peppers.
I say everyone should try the Binary Neutron Star Challenge at least once
LOL

Holy cow it's not even handwavium, it actually makes sense.

It was in the works if I remember correctly.
