Hello Commanders,
I'm done. I'm heading back.
Soon after i thought, i can get farer than that (last report, 65366,50LY) i continued searching.
I still followed other Commanders (namely Azyron, Alot, Allitnil, Stulli, Kamzel and Tarumbar)
It's somehow a relief when someone was in those depths before you, so i started to feel comfortable if i followed a path tagged by a commander starting with "A" (most times
), however, at the same time i hoped to find a path where noone was before.
I didn't.
However, i came across Ceeckaea BE-F B45-0, a previously unvisited system 65.219ly away featuring a terraformable Water and an Ammonia Planet.
After not managing to find another path that would lead my past my previous maximum distance by accident, i thought, there must be an other way to find one.
I mean, its just geometry, right? I just needed to point at a star in galmap, calculating his distance to sol and then to the next star, until i came to a point my nav computer would work again.
Easy said, but like geometry is hard without a ruler, that was not as easy as i thought. I spent many ours staring at the galmap, writing down coordinates and calculating distances with a calculator (because galmap lacks a ruler, too).
I did not find any paths. Neither for me with my slightly limited range (even if i'd drop the limpets), neither for a maxed out Anaconda. (Thats not exactly true. i found one for the Anaconda, just to find out that path is known: The Treehouse)
Now i sit here with an quite extended list of systems that could set a record, but with no path to them. After i did that for like 3 days straight, not finding any more unchecked systems, i don't think i'll find one.
So, i'm heading back starting tomorrow or the day after. Looking again at the galmap, but this time to find some waypoints i want to visit on my way to the bubble.
That said, the farest system i visited is Myeia Thaa RI-B D13-0, 65366,5ly from Sol; And i'm still carrying 3 limpets.
(A more detailed story is yet to come
)
