Thargoid Mission - Help with Plans Delivery

Post by fasnoon »

The Planet BIRERA is just toooo far for the ship to jump. After a series of fights and jumps to the system... I go to the system which is closest to the target planet, But...

I find that my ship's engines are far too small to make the jump to BIRERA as its MORE THAN 7.0 light years even from the closest planet. How do I get make the delivery?

Errrr, not true. Birera can be approached from one planet that is less than 7ly away. Have a good long look at the star chart (press 6 twice). And I don't think you can alter your ship to go farther - I believe the 7ly limit is hardcoded.
It is generally inadvisable to eject over the target you just bombed.

You can reach Birera from Lelebi via Edriuson.

Your shift key is still sticking.
