New jumpholes

  • As on the CF2.0 todo list it is planned to add jumpholes between the systems connected to x-3043. In other words there will be backdoor entries to these systems which clearly would make the system more interesting and more realistic.
    Attached is my proposal for the jumphole connections between the systems.


    Objective is to connect each of the systems with at least one other system.
    Connection to vanilla systems are not wanted due to story reasons.
    A connection to arena or cube arena is a must to allow people to leave the system even if we have campers in x-3043.


    I have left out tarsus and custodian as they already have connections to more than one system... but i have no problem with adding further jumpholes.
    Red lines represent the new system connections.

    That's a just a GREAT idea for improvement.

    Well, as proposed, there is still the bottleneck X-3034, since all the backdoors lead - in loops - back to X-3034, there is no way around it,
    ...beside Purian Lake with its connection to rheinland space via Freeport 7 > Quantos > Frankfurt.
    For a "true backdoor" from arena perhaps an additional connection Enigma - Quantos (would make also sense for the Corsair-npcs there) or Alaska
    Another one, based on your proposal, perhaps Helios - Nephele, then Inner Cloud > Corridor > New London.


    ... but i have no problem with adding further jumpholes.


    Then I would like to propose a connection of Sea of Shadows and Oasis to "new" systems leading to bretonia space, due to their "story" in the infocards,
    perhaps to Inner Cloud and Hyperion ?


    Just my 2 cents.

  • Arena: bc it is OORP system, I suggest link this one with JH again to X-3043. If you link it with other systems, trader can use way through Arena and this isn't imo best idea.


    Wheel of Sirius (or one from newly linked systems) to Corridor.




    Seltos ( or Daedalus) to Inner Cloud.


    Enyo to Custodian.

    Hmmmm, didn't think about that.


    Then perhaps somethinf via Freeport 7, due to the heavy nomad activity there not very "comfortable" there :D ,
    despite any reputation hacks to pirate forces elsewhere.


    OR adding some nomad or DK (?) activity in another "connecting" system ?
    (just a thought, dunno if compatible with what ever story you come up with for CF 2.0)

  • I forget about one new connection which I had in mind longer time. It is in Altair and should allow movement from nomad systems to Coalition space. Reasons: Coal.rogues connection to other 2 bases and nomad, DKs connection to coal.systems with nomads or DK's presence. Is not much logical that nomads, rogues and DKs need pass JG in Sovetskaya (from Gladius) when is there Gorlowka carrier on guard :)

  • Connecting Sea of Shadows with Oasis sounds like a good idea...


    Will there be more connections inside Altair systems?

    ... and then to something near bretonia :D

  • Vanilla must have FP7 next to Manhatten or close. Otherwise they probably wouldn't go to MH to take care of injuried people.
    But on the other hand i think i remember something about 2 weeks later in the Intro. Confusing - and maybe it can be fixed ?

  • @ SilverFox


    then perhaps FP7 to Midpoint Rift ? .... or Wanderer's Pont ?
    or better Quantos to Midpoint Rift or Wanderer's Pont ?

  • You're right Silverfos, would agree on that.

  • Clan systems.


    I'm not keen on the idea of a second entrance to Casius. Some clan systems are "dead end" systems and perhaps they were chosen because of that. It's easier to defend a system with only one way in or out. The system that gets invaded the most is Tarsus. I'd like to hear from CFPD and how they would feel about pirates coming into their system from multiple points. These changes will remove a major strategic advantage of a dead end system.

  • well... we could of course ask CFPD... but practically they are not renting the system anymore (im just saying)


    Dead end systems are nice to defend... in that point you are right.
    But with the upcoming changes... the conquest system and the clan bases such dead end systems also can turn into a trap for deliveries which have to go out of the system.
    You might also want to consider this point.

  • Very interesting


    {LP} is much in the same condition as our nemesis (CFPD) and probably have no rights of opinions. I do think that a "server clan" would have interesting options to consider if systems had these JH's introduced.
    I commend the "thinking outside the box" of this idea.


    Hmm....I see only that Daedalus will soon be conquested.....lol :( Oh well

    I roam space in search of adventure and treasure.

  • Ah come on, there's no problem with that.
    It's a bit tricky 'cos people tend to travel through your system without permission sometimes, but that's nice, because then you can chase them and shoot them, just because.


    Yeah, I'm evil. :D
