Hyperspace and six systems

The frontier has grown to six star systems. Open the galaxy map, charge the hyperdrive and pass through a tunnel of star lines.

Vesper is no longer the only system. The galaxy map (M) now shows five more: Tarn, Kyrin, Morrow, Ilex and Sable. Each has its own station and its own character.

The jump

Pick a system on the map and press J to charge the drive.
Within 5 km of a station the drive will not charge because of the mass lock.
Range and fuel use depend on the ship’s mass: a full hold means a shorter jump and more fuel.

What it looks like

While the drive charges, the stars begin to stretch. Then comes a flash, and the ship flies through a tunnel of star lines and nebulae. The tunnel gradually shifts from the colour of the departure system to the colour of the destination.
