FTL Jump

A ship traveling through hyperspace.

An FTL jump is how a ship travels between systems and sectors.

To perform an FTL jump, a ship requires:

• A powered FTL Drive that has an FTL Charge loaded.
• The ability to align the ship for the jump, which requires working engines or thrusters.

The Fleet page describes how multiple player-owned ships jump together.

There is not a limit to jump distance, but a jump cannot pass directly through another star system.
