[SPOILER] X3:FL Universe Map (with download)

[maxolina]

I made a map of the X3:FL Universe using the tool "X3 map v1.2 by Scorp (TC Edition)"

With this game's focus on discovery and exploration, make sure you really want to spoil yourself the new map.

Obviously your HUB will be have different connections, remember that.

Added to the tips and tricks overview. However, please note there's at least one mistake.

There's no connection between Legend's Home and Ianamus Zura, and positions seem to be off.

Thanks for the map:
It is unclear how to find the way to Sol.

[Axeface]

The map varies between gamestarts right? Because my Akeelas Beacon, for example, has no alpha or beta.

[Cycrow]

there are some variations yeah, not all sectors are active in each game

Not at the beginning of the playthrough. Like in other gamestarts, connection to Terran space is established during a second plot.

You need to have collected 750k discovery points and you need to have build your first own TOA (although in my game it seems buying the rights is enough). Once you have fullfilled those criteria you can pay a 250k special discovery that starts the plot from the explorers guild. Note: its the 250k one, not the 25k normal one.

How many sectors (excluding "unknown enemy sector" & "sanctory of darkness") can be discovered per game? 13 or 12?

I'm not quite sure and I'm searching like hell, cause I've a TOA in store and want to place it somewhere...

[Ketraar]

How many sectors (excluding "unknown enemy sector" & "sanctory of darkness") can be discovered per game? 13 or 12?

10 is the max number you can find, excluding the mentioned ones.

You mean 10, excluding the „pre sectors“ to those two?

Then indeed, I‘ve found all and should sell my TOA…

I actually had 2 starts that gave me the plot without needing to have the rights to a sector.

buying: Special Discovery from a Trade-StockEX \ Shipyard \ EQDock

Should be sufficient.

As for the plot, in all cases this is the way it played out for me.

Go to the Trade Station in The Hole, Search for the ship and HSAP, Escort the Mammoth from CBSE to Brennan's Triumph Beta?, bring the resources requested, then help set up the defenses in the newly discovered sector. Once they reveal who they are, you have to side with either the Community or Terran's. Siding with the Terran's resets your rep with them if you managed to take a hit with them.

That is as far as I have gotten with them. The first time I tried it the mammoth was unfortunate that the first attempt it met it's end at 2 Xenon Q in the destination sector. Oh, and a Heavy Nemesis can go toe to toe with a Q if it doesn't have any escorts.
