|---|
The star map becomes available after the construction of an "Astronomy
laboratory". The map displays the explored area that depends on the
development level of the Astronomy laboratory, astrophysics, espionage and
other constructions and sciences. By pointing the stars with the cursor you
can see their name and coordinates. You can obtain more detailed information
by clicking on them. The map also shows the routes of your ships and those of
ships flying to your planet. The star systems having hyperspace gates are
marked with a blue square in the center of the star. The red square indicates
that the hypergate has a license factory.
The Universe consists of several galaxies. The distance between them is
about 20000-45000 light years. Each star system has its ID number and
coordinates. The star orbit may contain up to 5 bodies (objects) - planets,
asteroid fields and one hyperspace gate.

5 - hyper.gate JonDo |
Sun - the name of the star and the entire star system.
50815 - ID number of the star system.
32551 - 32739 - the coordinates of the star system in the galaxy
(X:Y).
planet - 1 no
life - It means that this planet is uninhabited. For more details
about the planet click on planet-1
planet - 3 JonDo - It means that this planet is settled
by the player JonDo. The color of the player's name indicates his/her race
affiliation:
green - humanoids
blue - silicoids
yellow - insectoids
red - plasmoids
4 - asteroid field - This are
your reserves of resources in the form of asteroids. As far as you're under
newbies protection (up to rating 500) it will remain untouchable for other
players. As soon as you lose the protection this field can be taken out
(stolen) by other players, so be careful! The stock of resources on the
asteroid field is limited. Click on 4in order to find out of raw
materials contained by the asteroid field. The asteroid fields also contain
minerals and artifacts of ancient civilizations.
5 - hyper. gate JonDo - It shows that on the star orbit there
is a hypergate belonging to JonDo. The hyperspace gate is used as a beacon
indicating to ships flying in the hyperspace the exact exit coordinates.
This is mandatory condition for hyperspace flights. Moreover, the hypergate
is used as orbital base and you can build different structures on it,
including certain constructions that cannot be erected on the planets, e.g.
Commanders' school and Power converter. The fleets passing through the
hypergate may buy helium-3 from a special tank having a capacity of 5000
units. Each level of helium depot adds 5000 to the total amount of available
helium.
