To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hello, I have a question.
Since we have a 3-dimensional galaxy in Pioneer, all the systems have (x,y,z) coordinates.
Is there any way to precisely go to the given x,y,z? I mean, I want to go all the way through x to see where (how far to be precise) can I go that way. Now I can do this only by clicking systems roughly in the x direction which is not really convenient and far from being precise.
Is there some function I have not discovered or if there isn't - is such thing planned? Of course game engine should let you to arrive at any given x,y,z (so there is risk of arriving at void).
I would love to do some more serious galaxy exploration, but now it looks as if I hyperjump almost in random direction or I jump in a circle.
You can move around on the map with the arrow keys, and you will go faster with if you hold down shift. The movement is perpendicular to the view plane, so you can go up and down too if you rotate the view with the right mouse. Also you can zoom out far to see faction territories
You can only target and jump to systems as far as I know.
Thank you for reply and information, nozmajner. This will be enough for me to do some more let's say 'oriented' exploring.
If i remember correctly, you can also write the coordinates in the search field.
I have just checked and yes you do remember correctly, Tichy! You just made my day, thanks! 🙂
