I tested this and it seems like the crescents do not show the systems with in one jump from you, but instead show every system that you can reach from the system you are currently hovered over, with the current amount of fuel in your tank. So in my FDL with a 19 jump range I could make it like 490 something LY before my tank runs out
what are the orange crescent shaped markers over some stars on the galaxy map?????

- Start date
Cool detective work. Did u just move farther away from your position in galmap until less arcs showed up?
I started at one system then looked to see which system was the furthest away that still had that crescent, got the distance, then moved slightly away to another system and the crescent disappeared. Then I did the same thing with multiple ships using different systems as references
Mystery solved. I'm all out of rep, so have a smiley face ☺
The real mystery though is; who put this in the game, for what purpose (is it sort of defunct with the extra nav filters added since), and does anyone make real use of it?
Nice one.
