Stuck inside Col 70 Sector

Hello all. Having not played ED for a while, I decided to have a spin again once I heard that there is a community goal to help Jaques station. I hadn't played for a few weeks, but I certainly remembered that I had been visiting Barnard's Loop last time I played.

I don't know how the life of me I managed to stumble my way in there, but I've found that I can't plot any kind of route home, as any direction I try seems to reach the Col 70 sector, which requires a special permit to get through that I don't have.

I've spent a good hour trying to find a route home avoiding the Col 70 sector, but now matter how far I look on any axis, I always run into a barrier I can't get past.

Any suggestions on how to get home? I'm currently in the system 'NGC 2232 SECTOR DR-V C2-3' with a jump range of 33.79LY. I would very much like not to self destruct, as I have a fair bit of exploration data I was going to use to level up Farseer to make the trip to Jaques.

Thanks in advance!
 
how long have you not been playing?

there were some sectors permitlocked not long ago near bernards loop. you might want to send a ticket out to get you out of there.
a big chance there isnt enough jumponium to get you out of there
 
You should be able to dive under that sector (route downwards then back to the bubble). Support can move your ship if you really can't find a way out due to the permits, you are not too far from populated space so it's not a big deal.

These sectors are now locked -

Col 70 Sector
Barnard's Loop Sector
Horsehead Dark Sector
Col 121 Sector
M41 Sector
NGC 2264 Sector
Col 97 Sector (Cone Nebula)

I can't be 100% sure when I last played, but it was certainly a good few weeks ago. Do you reckon the devs would respond to a support ticket like this?

And I've tried searching down as well, 777 - but so far no luck.

I'll give the NGC 1999 direction a go, and failing that submit a ticket. Appreciate the help!

Edit: I think I'm good - should be able to get home now. Thanks again!
