System size?

Post by Itusa »

So I uh picked a star in the sky and aimed for it. 20 light hours later.... Can I actually get there?

Kinda got so far that the shift key doesn't work anymore....

Scratch that. I just can't access the map or spec anymore... Travel mode it is then!

Going directly from system to system without using the jump points will not work in the vegastrike universe but it does in the Star Trek mod so the engine supports it but it is not used in the vanilla game as it was intended to mimic game play in the Privateer games there is a whole back history for the universe.That back story also explains why we have no nano-tech in game.Only specially equipped explorer ships can do it heavy duty SPEC generators and power systems.

Turns out... Not a lot. Even when running on 0 drive energy. So low is my energy that not only has my tar getting system been turned off but so has the spec drive...in auto mode! Though I'm still moving at 97.34C...

no energy change, no velocity change

I'll have to test that but thrusters appeared to still be working. I could hear them.
