I suppose...

But it's not intrinsically secure the way it is in a docking space. Airlocks are not designed for carrying cargo securely. Watch those fancy maneuvers!

Tricksy it is, My Precious. Yep. Or add a note to the selection box making it clear for dunces like me. ;) You're probably right. Thanks. I've used it before in a past life as a Linux system admin, but that was more than 25 years ago. An addition like that would help folks that don't know...

When I try to plot a J6 route across the rift from Riftspan Station to Glisten without any exclusions at all, it tells me no route found. An eyeball tells me that there is indeed a route, so something is going on there. I suspect it does not see Riftspan Station or Chandler Station as viable...

He also thought parsecs were a unit of time until a massive fix tried to make that make sense, so take the naming conventions he used with a shaker of salt. ;)

One other thing I've noted is that it's hard to exclude non-Imperial worlds. One would have to do each and every allegiance except Imperial. Perhaps adding something to do that for the major polities so my route from Capital to Glisten doesn't go way off into Vargr turf?

I finally figured out I was telling it what I wanted rather than what to avoid. Sigh. That said, even when I selected less than D for starports (talk about counter intuitive) it still showed some D ports, so there is something wrong there.

But what about feldercarb?

I did not see that, but while it would suit, it doesn't seem to be working. Note the filters and the results. Feeling like I misused that filter and it should be any rather than all, I reran it with any and it failed to find a route with even the most inoffensive restrictions. Even...

@CthulhuStig, I was using the jump route planner feature to plan a route for a J6 liner running from Terra to Capital and it was an unexpected pain since a liner needs to meet certain criteria for the worlds along its route. That led me to making this feature request. There needs to be criteria...

Chapter 12 – Dastardly Deeds in the Dark Thyra spent a couple of hours examining the jump drive and digging into its component parts. She was inclined to believe that part of the work had taken place before the old man would have seized the vessel. Many—most—of the parts in the drive were...

And for an online map, that would be just as universally useless.

What I am specifically saying is that representing Foreven Sector like is is online helps neither those who want a useable sector map nor those that have a homebrew map for their table. That sector on TravellerMap literally serves no one.

Me, too.

I appreciate that. Thank you.
