We got tach drives and AMJ dirves i was thinking we should have other options for making jumps.Here are some ideas 1.Slip Space travel:uses generator that enters slipspace.U can pass through planets and stars this way but its highly inaccurate so the farther u jump the more inaccuracy in the jump.
2.space fold:Alows u to appear at any location instantly but causes some damage to your ship.
3.Wormhole travel:this is already planned
What do u think?

This is a pretty good idea. It may be a popular idea with the community, though I do think they will want to wait for this to be implemented in the patch after the one currently being tested on the beta servers.Quote:

Pretty nice. Though I would suggest that it take a long time to recharge since it would most likely, IRL, require an enormous amount of energy.Quote:

Indeed.I think these ideas are good ones.

If and when using these, you should be able to transport your fleet, say all ships within 100 gu of you, to another location. But one there, all your drives and systems would have a nice long recharge to do so. So chances are, if you go into a battle zone, you are probably going to die if you jump really close.

Sure, but you start off with no energy, and the drive is damged
