Calc results in 14620 jumps for me, which results in 219kly range.

Rebecca HailNo, your calculation seems to be roughly correct, although mine result in 24941 15ly jumps which is around 374kly.

Did you remember the 10.5 ly from the booster? Remember, I was using 4.5 as d, with an extra 10.5 added to the total distance from the FSD booster.

Neaayou can see the area of influence you are in right now if you look at the target area in your Cockpit on the left side.
It either says a stellar Body Name or something like "shipping lane" or "Deep space"
That makes sense as an area of influence, it doesn't say that is what it is when you look there. I thought before it was just 'nearest object' for when you want to find signal sources/interdiction targets in shipping lanes and whatnot, and have noticed deep space there before and wondered about that; but never made the connection as to being sphere of influence.
Thanks for that bit of helpful guide.

Yes, I calculated with 4.5.

Yes, I calculated with 4.5.
Did you... change mShip for each jump to reflect the used fuel?

Hm, no, I didn't. That could indeed be it.
Edit: After applying mass adjustment, I get the same results as you do.

Nice to know I didn't mess it up. Also, who's gonna be the "lucky" guy or girl or attack helicopter to decide that it's a good idea to use this to go to Beagle Point?

Thinking to myself, he must be fighting with the guys outside.
Then I hear "Target Destroyed", well, he didn't escape.
Finish what I'm doing, launch, and a piece of his ship floats across in front of my ships nose.
I laughed and looked for the other parts. Sure enough, that guy did NOT undock before exploding.
He did not make it to the mailslot.
I took some screenshots. haha.

I'm sure you'd make it there after a lot of time but you need a lot more than 15ly jumps to get there and that'll screw up your fuel calcs11 Nov 2018, 2:55am
Rebecca HailProbably noone. I'm sure you'd make it there after a lot of time but you need a lot more than 15ly jumps to get there and that'll screw up your fuel calcs
There'll be parts with more and parts with less. He's got 3 times the range needed for a one way trip, it might work.

El PuercoDoes anyone know how to find Elite players that live in your area, so you can actually meet and discuss stuff??
Usually most remain somewhat protective online of their identity but Personal Messaging can work if there is any interest shown. There is certainly no mechanic designed for that.
Hello El Puerco.. You are new to us today it looks like.

S. H. RobinsonDoes anybody know if there's a way to save messages in their comms past the 30 day auto-delete period? I visited all of the known Generation Ships and I wanted to keep the stories I got from them. I play on PS4 if that's important...
Thanks for the help.
Any combination of: Screenshots, external notes, bookmarks in the Galaxy Map (label them).

The upcoming Codex in 3.3 will sort that out for you
I believe that it will retrospectively apply to all your discoveries and logs made so far.
