grab the current location
Have you been there yet? Have you docked? Do it!!
This dumb pilot seems stuck in G1. I just complemented how to operate the
Galactic Hyperdrive but despite the fact that I have the Galactic Hyperdrive in my ship it does not show up when priming equipment.
Thus I don't know how to go to G2 and finally end up in the star system of choice. What can be the cause for the equipment to not be primeable?
Pressing "g" does what?

Whoops. It took me to the other galaxy. Which means I do not have to prime it at all?
Ok, I'll update the wiki. The forum post I found was lying!

No, you don't need to prime it at all at all!
The forum post looks like it was for Wildeblood's
Galactic Hyperdrive OXP which
adds to the vanilla game Galactic Hyperdrive.

From
this angle the statue looks to me like some sort of elf with bi-i-ig ears!
I'm not sure that this is the effect that KW wanted!!

So there are two different types of equipment with the same name? Then it should be pointed out somewhere. I almost feared my hyperdrive were 'stowed away' and thus not primeable.
I ended up in the target system. And saw the station straight away. It is huge - but first I went to Coriolis and saved the session.

No. It's the same equipment. Wildeblood's OXP (not on the Expansions Manager - see below) gives it more oomph, that's all - the ability to
choose where you are going in the next galaxy. The Vanilla game galactic hyperdrive gives you no choice at all.
Wildeblood's also lets you see the chart for the next galaxy (F3F3F3) - but this seems not too work too brilliantly on my AppleMac, overlaying the current Galaxy chart and creating a bit of a morass in terms of working out what's what!
I presume that this is due to the changes in the F6 charts with v1.82 (2015) - which happened around the time that Wildeblood left these boards. Much of his published work has either been withdrawn (often due to changes in the vanilla game code) and much has no license - only his personal copyright.
So? Have you
docked yet? cbr has very kindly shown you the front door... - I wasted a lot of time peering myopically around the other end of the colossus...
And did you ever manage to get the
force-feedback-joystick vanilla-game-code tweak to compile?

This adds complexity. I just checked, and I have a 'Galactic Hyperdrive Reimagined' OXP installed. Our Wiki page about Galactic Hyperdrive definetely needs to disambigue things then. Tell that there are different items labelled the same, allow a user to identify which one of them he is facing and describe their behaviour.
Let's take this discussion into a more suitable thread, e.g.
Galactic Hyperdrive OXP

That's amazing work KW, what a stunning bit of design and texturing!
Nice screenshot cbr, really captures the scale of the station!

Genuinely impressed.
The design, the attention to detail, the lighting.
High quality is expected from a KW oxp but this IMHO is exceptional.
Very well done KW and well captured cbr!
...Now where did I put that scorpius oxp???
