Sector scanning, what is the best way / blue border question

Post by Starman01 »

Hi all,

the new sectors are really huge, maybe even too huge. Since I don't have a Sinza yet i literally waste lifetime just scanning the sector removing the fog of war. I tried buying a discover and let him do the job, but at least the "explore" command fails, he seems to have pathfinding problem. So I just gave him 20+ waypoints to move through the system. Not sure what he will might miss (certainly not marking any special findings), but at least I know where the stations are, duuuuh.

Doing a second sector myself right know, i estimate 45+ minutes alone for doing that. Is there any better way, better equipment, ways to buy sectormaps or anything ? Even though the universe is nice to look at, it's still a bit dull flying around just for that.

Also, i noticed that when I fly against the blue borders in the map, the sector maps seems to nudge / move a bit. How can I recenter it, I can find a function to do so.

Any help appreciated :)

You are doing the best that you can do at this moment, exploration is too slow way points are best option now. the limits of the sectors aren't fixed. they will expand if you get close enough to them.
